PROVES STATEMENT MADE By
BARON SAKATANI
After War Japan Will Attempt to
Bring Adjustment Of lmmigra-
ton Problem
BY RALPH II. TURNER

TOXIC, Dec. 11.-Japanese approval
is given here today to the statement
made in America by Baron Sakattani
that after the war Japan would at
tempt to bring about a settlement of
her immigration problem with the
United States.
While the Japanese never have volc-
ed the desire to break the gentleman's S
agreement, they feel that it is most
unsatisfactory arrangement. With
the rise of Japan's power and her
world commerce, the sentiment that
the American ruling is discriminatory
becomes stronger. The belief that
revival of the question is inevitable is
expressed by the Toxic Asahi, regard
ed by some persons as the leading
newspaper of the capital.
Baron Sakatani only voiced the
sentiment of the Japanese nation"
says the Asahi in speaking of the
Baron's declaration in the United
States. why should the Japanese
Embassy have found it necessary to
deny his statement? That the Japa-
problem must be solv-
ed was a most representative opinion
for Baron Sakatani to give.
''The gentelmen's agreement was
not fundamental solution. 1t was
only a temporizing method. Baron
Sakatani expressed the wishes of the
Japanese nation that the two countries
come to perfect understanding of
each other SO the issues pending may
De solved satisfactorily to all concern
