Washington-
Declaring the treaty provision grg-
ing Japan control in Shantung had
been repeatedly misin;erpreted AMI
generally misunderstood, Senator
Robinson, Democrat, Arkansas, told
the Senate it was unjust 10 suspect
Japan's motives or to question the
declaration of her statesmen that the
territory eventually would be restor-
ed to China. 1T has been stated by
one senator" said Mr.. Robinson,
that by the treaty Shantung, with
its 10000 000 inhabitants, is wrested
from China and presented to Japan.
The territory involved in this contro-
versy Is limited to a small land area
of approximately 200 square mites
and an equal water area. The total
population of the leased area Is ap
preximately 10000.
Little dispute arises as to the
origin of Germany's claims in this
area. As a part of the movement Of
the nations to secure commissions In
China Germany. in 1896, undertook
negotiations for rights and priyi-
leees in the Giso Chow region
These negotiations were successful
March 6. 1898. Germany concluded a
treaty with China by which she ae-
auired lease of 90 years on both
sides Of the bay of Kia Chow.
THAT German regarded her rights
in Shantung as subject to seizure oy
the allied nations Mt war with her Is
disclosed by her efforts to anticipate
their occupation of the leased terri
tory. Japan obtained possession by
net of war. and while in possession
secured the agreement of China TO
recognize any settlement that she
might make with Germany upon the
restoration of peace.
Japanese statesmen have repeat
edly reaftrmed the purpose 10 return
the coded territory 10 China as soon
as It can be accomplished in accord
ance with the agreement between
China and Japana. Ne beneficial eff
feet can result if We assume Japan
