CONDITIONS IN ORIENT
JAPAN READY TO DISARM IN SIBERIA
IF SUPPORTED BY EUROPE
AND AMERICA
By allograph—Press Association-Oopyrithl (Hec. May 26, 11.10 p.m.) New York, May 26. The Tokio correspondent of the Chicago "News" interviewed Count Okuma, who declared that if Europe and America understood Japan's motives and gave her moral support, Japan would be ready to disarm in Siberia, and try to improve conditions and open the continent to commerce. "But," he added, "if they are unable to reach an understanding, Japan will withdraw,, leaving the world to face the consequences. It is thus necessary for Japan and England to do something for the settling of conditions in the Orient, and they would welcomethe cooperation of the United States. The League of Nations, despite its possible defects, is a broad movement towards universal peace."—Ans.-N.Z.-Cable Assn.
