doubtful accuracy by Foreign Minister
Puevrredon today. 1t was true that
a rupture had not been created oy
handing Count Won Luxburg his pass

but DR.. Molina's instructions did not
provide for any explanation OF the
situation to Germany.
Rapture Probable
The foreign minister reiterated to-
day that there will be a rupture OF
relations with Germany if the latter's
explanation of the Luxburg incident
is not absolutely satisfactory. He
requested the senate to abandon the
proposed secret session set for today
to consider the matter as he prefers
. make all explanations at public

No request for a safe conduct has
been received from Count Won LUZ

flee, however, that he plans to leave
Argentina by a Dutch steamer sali-
ing September %, or on a Spanish
vessel October 2.
Since being handed his passports
Count Won Luxbnrg. it is stated has
been circulating the statement that
the idea OK sinking Argentine ships
without leaving q trace" was sus-
gested to him by the foreign minister
of Argentina as a means OF prevent

characterized by Foreign Minister
Pueyrredon as the greatest, most
shameful barefaced lie" in his !ofhcial
experience.

Mr.. Masao, who was e.ucated at

Representatives OF the People
Il think it should be understood
clearly that we are going to your
country" he said, cas- the direct rep
resentatives of the Japanese peopie.
Viscount Ishii went to America as the
representative of the state, but we
sneak particularly for the people"
eve desire to study your economic
conditions. We wish to visit your
cities and your factories. We want
to know the causes of your prosperity.
First, we will spend about ten days
on the Pacific coast with the special
purpose of studying the question OF
Japanese labor. That is a very I'M
portant problem. Personally 1 haze
the feeling that some Of the Japanese
in the United States lack an under
standing Of what is expected OF them
and I think that we, coming from the
home country, can give them some
suggestions.
Mr.. Masao also spoke Of China. He
was asked whether the people OF IA
pan expected the United States 10
recognize the special and paramount
interest of Japan in China. He re
Piled that he did not believe that IS
sue to be involved. at least at the
present time. But he was convinced
that Japan should be consulted Dy
other nations when those nations cor
templated political action Of any kin
in China
Questions to Be Discussed
There are some Of the questions
he said (Which we are hoping to DIS
cuss with the people Of the United
States because We are convinced IN t
a nerfect understanding can be at
tanned"
He was quite of the opinion that
the Japanese people do not at al
times understand conditions in TIE
United States, mere especially u
fundamental american conception
state rights in government.
