U. S. WELCOMES
JAPAN POLICY
ANENT China
BY CARL D. GROAT

United Press staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON. Oct. r.
official Washington today re-
CARDS the pledge Of vlseount
lshii, head Of the Japanese mis-
sion, for an "open door" in Chi
ma as the most important utter
ance, from the standpoint Of
American foreign relations,
made by any Of the sllled repre-
sentatives who have visited
this country.
II is believed the Ishii statement
has removed The most sinister weap-
on OF the iingoists who have been
persistently agitating the menace OF
a Japanese-American clash.
The statement of Japan's repre-
sentative was made Saturday night,
in formal prepared speech. sug-
gesting that its full weight and Inn
portance had been considered in ad-
vance. The time chosen for the
pronouncement was the climax of
the missions visit, after a tour COW
ering various cities.
Viscount lshii had given no hint
of Japan's policy in previous
speeches,
Ishii gives assurances that Japan
had no ambitions of aggression
against China. and invited co-opera-
tion of the United States in patrol
ling the Pacific and preserving the
open door" policy.
II was suggested today that the
declaration may have been the out
come OF an understanding reached
between the Ishii mission and Sec
retary Lansing at their recent con-
ference. This in spite of the fact
that Lansing has left the impres.
sion that the international aspects
of the Japanese situation were
avoided, and that war cooperation
was the sole theme of discussion.
