TOWARD U.S. GROWING
AMERICANS DECLARED TO BE
TROUBLE-MAKERS.
'Hypocrite, 'Despot,' 'Transformed
Kaiser' Among Epithets Applied
to President 'Wilson.
TOKIO. May 6. (By the Associated
Press.) The anti-American campaign
in the Japanese press continues with
renewed force. No serious overt acts
have been committed against Ameri
can property, but evidence exists that
the newspaper agitation Is inciting
popular feeling against America and
thus paving the way to possible open
demonstrations.
The belief Is t expressed that 'the
basis for the agitation is fear of the
growing influence of the United States
in International affairs and that It. will
act as a curb on Japan's aspirations in
China and Siberia- - -
After declaring that renewed at
tempts for anti-Japanese legislation on
the Pacific slope indicate that the
Americans persecute Japan in every
thing while wearing the mask of lib
erty and fairness, the Hochl Shlmbun
charges the Americans with having in
cited the Chinese to make the secret
treaties public and also accuses Amer
ican . missionaries . of fomenting the
Corean insurrection.
The Yorodzu Choho says the Ameri
cans responsible for attempts at anti-
Japanese legislation are nothing better
than barbarians.
"Hypocrite," "despot," "transformed
kaiser," "man with the voice of an
angel but with deeds of he devil," are
some of the epithets applied by the
newspapers to President Wilson-
