'ASHIXCTOX, April 5. (By the
Associated -.Press.) Japan has in
formed the state department of its
aithesion to the arrangement under
which bankers of the United States,
tlreat Britain, France and that coun
try will enter into a consortium for
the financing of China.
It was stated today officially that
the negotiations had progressed so
well that it would not be necessary
to await the return to this country
of Thomas V Umont of New York,
who is in the far east as the repre
sentative of the American group. To
"henin the execution of the plans of
the consortium, these ..contemplate a
loan of approximately $260,000,000 to
China, in installments of $50,000,000
ffr the improvement of Chinese fi
nances and internal works.
The fund will be used principally
for the constru tion and enlargement
of railroads. None of it can be ap
plied for military purposes.
Associated Press dispatches' from
Tol-:io today said that Japan insisted
thjir loans to China under the - con
sortium were to 'exclude those "preju
dicial to Japan's national' defense or
military interests in Manchuria anil
.Mongolia." . '
In Japanese- -circles here it was ex
plained that since the loans for these
provinces were to be for railway pur
poses entirely, Japan reserved the
rlttht to make sure that no new con
struction endangered her military
positions, especially in Korea.
TOKIO. April 5. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Japan desires to enter
the Chinese consortinm but will not
abandon her settled policy demand
ing the exclusion of Manchuria and
Mongolia, according to articles pub
lished in newspapers here after an
extraordinary cabinet meeting.
The- policy, however, may be modi
fied provided, first, .that rights al
re;tV acquired in those provinces are
It-cognized, and. second, that the con
ortiuni agreement excludes future
loans of a nature prejudicial to
Japan's national defense or military
interest in Manchuria and Mongolia.
it was the general opinion here that
a long practical step toward perma
nent peace in the far east might be
achieved by the consortium..

Obedience to law in general, both the
law of the land and the law of the

and the directions of its divinely-constituted
authorities, was one of the
two chief thoughts emphasized today

conference.
The other central thought upon
which- every speaker dwelt in detail
was the significance of the 100th an
niversary of the vision received, by
the prophet Joseph Smith, founder of
the church. As a corollary to this,
stress was laid upon the responsibil
ity resting upon the Mormon people
in their obligation to be worthy of
the duties instructed to them in re
storing the true gospel to the people
of the world. - . -.
Apostle James K. Talmadge, one of
the speakers at the morning session,
