BY JOHN EDWIN NEVIN
Washington. D. C, Mar.' 6.—The
United States bas not assented to
Japan sending a military expedition
into Siberia.
The United States baa not protested
against Japan sending a military expedition Into Siberia.
So far as tbe United States government is concerned, it believes that
Japan is satisfied with its position.
Tbis became known today tn connection with the Involved situation in the
Far East. Because of the conflicting
reports dealing wltb the Siberian question and the various rumors that a critical situation was developing the International News Service is authorized to present the above statement of
facts. Tbey describe the situation
exactly as lt exists at the present
moment. The Japanese government ls
fully informed of the reasons why the
United States did not deem lt wise to
assent to lta proposed military program. In this connection It can also
be stated as a fact that no note has
been sent to Tokyo. Rather, the position of the United States was conveyed in a friendly, Informal manner
which bas Increased rather than diminished, the friendship between the
two nations.
The United States does not fear tbat
Japan will go into Siberia wltb either
imperialistic or Improper motives. It
is fully recognized tbat this territory
ln the far eaat is properly within
Japan's sphere ot Influence. And tbe
suggestion that Japan—and other nations—act in tbe case was presented
to the United States by ita allies ln
the present war. They pointed ont
that many Oerman and Austrian prisoners of war in Siberia would prove a
very serious menace to tbe pacific
should they capture the Siberian railroad.
So far as official Washington knows
today, Japan has not yet entered Siberia. Japanese and Chinese forces
are at Harbin, but that is as far as
they have gone up to the present time,
officials believe.
Washington, March 6.—Tbere Wtll
be no serious friction with Japan over
Siberia.  Ofltcliils  made  this  posit iv?
assertion today. They said that reports that the United States had protested against military action Siberia
were unfounded. That the United
States, because the president has
been convinced that Russia will remain a factor in the world-war, bas
not assented to J*_i_. acting is admitted. But in withholding his assent,
Ihe prealdent bas not taken any action which will arouse resentment ln
Japan, officials who sbould know, declared today.
. Meanwhile the confusion resulting
from the secret diplomacy of tbe
United Statea continued to increase
here. High diplomatic officials instated that tbey did not know Just what
tbe policy of tbe United States toward Japan and its Siberian plans actually was. They pointed to the tact
that London -newspapers, which ara
supposed to sound the government's
view, have declared that the United
States was in sympathy wtth aggressive action in Siberia as proof
that a policy of "hands o_T," even
though lt was passive ln character,
as expected will result ln misunderstandings in London, Paris and Rome.
However, administration officials said
that what on the surface seemed to
be confusion would be easily Ironed
out when tbe president sees fit to
talk.
It ls understood, however, tbat tbe
real reason for the change of fron*
on the part of the United States, and
the decision not to publicly endorse
military action la Siberia is the attitude ot Ambassador David R. Francis. He ls understood to believe tbat
it will be Impossible for Germany to
impose a made-ln-Germany peace on
the Russian people. Mr. Francis is
understood here to have reported
that tbe rank and file of the Russians themselves were so strongly antl-Oerman that if the Bolsheviki indorsed tbe peace terms demanded by
Germany, it would be ousted from con
trol.
Tbe Russians had ta'ken extraordinary precautions to prevent their wa:
supplies tailing into the hands of the
Oermans, according to the Francis
dispatches. And members of tba Root
mission to Russia bad also aaat word
ta tba White Bouse that they bellev

Nation's Shipping Program
Is Menaced by Present
Situation.
Washington, D. C, Mar. 6.—Pending the outcome of the appeal to
President Wilson to be made by Wm.
L. Hutcheson. president of the
Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners to intervene ln the controversy
between the metal trades unions of
the American Federation of Labor,
and the carpenters, the next big move
will have,to come from the shipping
board, Hutcheson declared today.
Preparations for the appeal to the
President are now being completed.
Despite the fact that the shipping
board left witb organized labor, decision as to whether the shipyards
working agreement now in force
should be amended to meet the view*
of the carpenters at the expense of
the metal trade workers, Hutcheson
takes the attitude that the flgbt has
not been transferred from shipping
boafd officials to tbe metal trade
workers.
"If the shipping board wants wooden ships built, lt will have to make
the move pending our appeal to the
President," Hutcheson said before
leaving.
Hutcheson attended tbe meet ing today ot the labor federation.
"It would appear," he said, "from
the attitude ta'ken by tbe shipping
board, that they do not want wooden
ships built, or at least want the steel
ships finished first, so that they wtll
be in a position to further assume
an Indifferent attitude toward tbe carpenters."
With tbe American Federation of
Labor officials and the onetal trades
unions deadlocked witb Wm. L.
Hutcheson, president of tt* Brotherhood of Carpenters aad Joiners, over
the demanda of the latter, the only,
hope ot settlement Of the carpenters'
controversy Wltb tbe shipping board
lies today with Preeident Wilson.
Following the all day conference yesterday, between Hutcheson, Samuel
Oompers, metal trades representatives. Assistant Secretary ef the Nary
Roosevelt, and shipping board officials, efforts of the carpenters' lead
ers to force amendment of the shipping yard agreement to meet Hutcbe-
son's demands, came to naught. Today, Hutcheson and his followers are
preparing to appeal to President Wilson. It their appeal falls, then another atrike ot ship carpenters is Imminent unless the government takes over
the shipyards. Such ls the implied
threat, made by carpenters' brotherhood officials. Hutcheson's statement
following his failure to get tho metal
trades to recede from their position
that the carpenters ahould not have
special priveleges at the expense of
tbe otter shipyard workers,' is taken
to mean that he will not attempt to
control his men. ,
"If President Wilson does nothing,"
Hutcheson declared, "then we are
through', and it is up to the government to keep the men ln line. Tbay
struck laat time, and only returned
to work in response to tbe President's
appeal ln the belief that the matter
would be adjusted to theis satisfaction."

normal tonnage during February, according to a report yesterday by J. B.
Zcrbe, secretary of the Pittsburgh
Vein Operators' Association and representative in the district of the federal

stated.
Tbe car shortage, according to Mr.
Zerbe's figures, amounted to 54.81
per cent, causing a tonnage loss of
651,500 tons.
