Washington. July 10.--After con-
ference with Ambassador Chinda, Sec
retAry Bryan today announced that the
dispatch OF reply to the two latest
Japanese notes on the California alien
land law. might be deferred until next

Mr.. Bryan. before tho conferences

points OF his reply were discussed with
Ambassador Chinda. but he declined
to make public any part of the de-
tails under consideration.
The fact that Mr.. Bryan proposes TO
postpone the dispatch OF his reply gave
rise to the conclusion in diplomatic
circles that he will redraft the note,
which. 1t was supposed. was In readi-
ness for transmission to Toxic.
Mr.. Bryan said. however. that no
point was raised in the conference
which would necessitate Viscount
Chinda's communication to his govern
ment before the delivery OF the AM
erican reply.
