Tokyo, Jan, 17.
Prince Konoye, Premier of Japan, will confer with leading members o: the Diet to-day to explain the action of the Imperial Conference, made public yesterday, and to request the fullest ce-operation of all factions in the national parliament to carry out the Conference's decisions.
In all sections of Japan. "spiritual mobilization" behind the China campaign will be brought to a high pitch to bring out the last measure of public support, and Army and Navy headquarters will concentrate on an even more vigorous "punitive campaign" on the Asiatic mainland.
Some sections of popular opinion, it developed last night, felt that the decision of the Imperial Conference had not been drastic enough. First manifestation of the feeling came in the form of a resolution by an organization composed of the secretaries of Diet members who are members of the League on China Problems.
The organization urged the Government to petition the Throne to declare war against the "anti-Japanese regime in China." None of the Diet members was present at the meeting of their secretaries, whose organization is a small one—United Press.
