War Office Decision: Garrison at Vladivostok Included Tokio, June 23.
It is reliably reported that the evacuation of Siberia was decided on at to-day's meeting of the Cabinet.
June 24.
The Government has decided to withdraw all troops from the Maritime Province of Siberia by the end of October, 1922, according to an official announcement. Suitable measures will be taken for the protection of resident Japanese.
This step is now possible, it is authoritatively explained, because Russia has somewhat modified her communistic ideas and because the Powers iby inviting the Soviet to the Genoa and Hague Conferences have helped fo promote better relations with the Soviet. During the period of the evacuation it is understood that warships will be stationed at Vladivostok.—Reuter.
