SECRETARY BRYAN AND AMBAS. SADOR CHlNDA WILL TRY TO
 REACH UNDERSTANDING.
TO FIX STATUS OF THE LAPS
Report That Protest Contains De- mand for Naturalization EIioibiI- ity Is Oenied-WiIl Bring Jap-
 anese Question to Head.

Washington, May 14.-That a new treaty with Japan will be negotiated Tn the immediate future to settle the status of the Nipponese in this coun- try was the general belief at the state department.
 No matter what action Gov. Johu- son takes on the Webb bill now in his hands, it was admitted that the time had arrived when the status of the Japanese must be cleared LID and absolutely defined by treaty, in order that a menace to the peace of the na- tion may be removed.
 Bryan and Chinda Confer.
 Secretary of State Bryan and Wis count Chinda. the Japanese ambassa- dor, have gone far enough in their negotiations to determine that there is a possible common ground upon which they can meet. And the result Is likely to be a treaty couched in plain and unmistakable English, which will take the place of the pres ent "gentlemen's agreement"
 Despite the fact that a number of statements regarding the contents of the Japanese protests have been made, some of them extremely con- tradictory, neither the state depart ment nor the Japanese embassy would make the document public. It was admitted that the protest was general in character and that it was intended to bring to head the entire Japanese question and define legally their standing in this country, but it was denied that 1t contained a de- mand that Japanese be declared eligi. ble for naturalization.
 Protest Is General.
 The Japanese protest, it was stated by those familiar with the entire sit uation, was based on the feeling that there is an effort not alone in Cali fornia, but in other states, to discrim- inate against the Japanese because of their ineligibility to citizenship The protest, it is explained, directs the at tention of the president to this dis elimination, and asks that it be reme- died. The only way in which it can be cleared up, it is\pointed out by diplomats, is by the negotiation of a new treaty which will deal with the entire matter in specific terms. This is believed to be the administration plan.
 It is because of this fact that both the president and the secretary of state have urged delay by California in it's anti-alien land-owning legisla- ti0n
