JOINT INTERVENTION IN RUSSIA
FINALLY ASSURED
TO AID OF CZECHOSLOVAKS
Complete Understanding Is Reached
Between Washington and Toklo
Governments.
Washington. Advices received lc
Washington concerning tho character
of tho -Japanese government's formnl
response to the plan or action in Si
beria proposed by tho United Statou
aro that a completo agreonient be
tweon the two nations is rorthcomlng.
Until tho text or the rormal response
Is received no announcement or the
policy agreed upon may be expected.
Tho advices received, while merely
outlining tho Japanese answer, are
sufficiently definite and' authentic to
afford overy expectation that the con
clusion of the Japanese-American un
derstanding will not bo long delayed.
As a matter of fact thero has never
boon any serious disagreement be
tween the two governments over the
plan of operation in Siberia advanced
by Washington.
Tho original Japanese answer to tho
American proposals was In no aenso
n rejection or oron a suggestion for
extreme- modification of the American
tortus. It contained observations that
required Interpretation and in an ex
cess of caution this government sought
a definite understanding ns to overy,
phase ot the Japaneso view.
This was what caused tho delay
that has been reported as a "hitch" or
serious disagreement. It was neither.
Thero is no exaggeration In saying
that the relations between the United
States and Japan nro mori cordial
now than thoy have been In years.
