Tokyo, Jan. 10.
"Morning newspapers here continue to play up the Cabinet crisis.
"Having come to the end of his tether," the "Asahi" declares, "the Premier, General Noboyuxi Abe, now shows, after his talk with the War Minister, General Shunroku Hata, yesterday, a marked change in his outlook and seems to be resigned to the conclusion that his Cabinet's resignation is inevitable."
Meanwhile, conferences between army leaders have been going on. The situation is evidently being watched very closely, and it is being felt that a continuation of the present state of political unrest much longer is intolerable, At the same time, the general public displays much interest in the situation and forecasts of General Abe's successor, Prince Fumimaro Konoye, former Premier, who is at present very active in conference with various statesmen, is being favoured for the Premiership. It is, however, understood he is very unlikely to accept.
General Sugiyama, General Count Juichi Terauchi, and General Hata (the present War Minister) are also mentioned, but General Kazushige Ugaki continues to be the favourite of financial and political circles—Reuter.
