for Canada, Mr.Yada, gave to the press this afternoon an official! statement inspired from Tokio, explaining Japan's reason for inter vention in the war snd the Pacific ends in view in conserving the integrity of China and territorial and commercial interests in the Orient common to the United States, Great Britain and all other nations: \u201cJapan and Germany are about, to engage in war in the China Sea because: \u201c1, Such a:tion is absulutely necessary in the interest of lasting peace in the Far East, \u201c2, Under the provisions of the Anglo-Japanese afliance Japan is in honor bound to take measures in co- operations with her ally.That Japan has no other motives than those set forth above is shown by the declaration in the ultimatum to Germany that Kiao-Chow will be restored to China.The long-proclaimed policy of Japan to supervise the integrity of China and to maintain the open door of which the declared intention to restore Kiao-Chow is another proof.\u201cThe provisions of the treayt of alliance with Great Britain which enunciates specifically The Hague principles of the integrity of China and the open door.\u201cIt it à matter of regret to Japan that Germany did not comply with the terms of its ultimatum and evac- vate Kioa-Chow, Had this been done, war would have been avoided.Following the war with China in 1594-95, Japan evacuated Port Arthur in 2c- cordance with the counsel of Germany aided by Russia and France.The ultimatum which Japan sent to Germany was identical with that which Germany handed to Japan.Japan accepted the advice of Germany.Germany has refused to follow Japan's example, and has thereby pre- c:pitated the conflict.\u201cThe world wil! see that Japan's word when given is a bond that will be executed to the remotest degree.It will release also the inestimable Liessings of a lasting pace in the Far F.ast as a result of what Japan is about to de.\u201d \u2014\u2014\u2014 TORONTO RAISES PATRIOTIC FUND CITY CONTRIBUTES $50,000 AND SIMILAR SUM FOR UNEMPLOYMENT - Toromo, Acg.24.\u2014Massey Hall was unable to contain the thousands who, tonight, thronged to the mass meeting held by the Toromo and York Patriotic Fund Association.The Hal!
