Col. H. Yokoyama, the Japanese army's liaison officer in Houho, told us that one of the great missions of the Japanese in Inner Mongolia is to help strengthen the Mongolian people so that they may be able eventually to bring about a reunion with their countrymen in "oppress- ed" Outer Mongolia. He bitterly castigated the Russians for their al-. leged persecution of Lamaism, the religion of the Mongols, and de-. clared that, of 6.000 Lama temples in Outer Mongolia, only 2.000 re- main in existence. As a contrast, he told how the Japanese are pro- tecting Lamaism and have .even sent Mongolian priests to Japan "for advanced study.".

In Outer Mongolia there are 400.000 and in Inner Mon- golia 300.000. The rest are scatter- ed through Siberia and West China.
