RELATIONS With
U.S.FAVORABLE,
|SH|I DECLARES
Japanese Ambassador Says
There is no Collision of In
terests Between Countries.
(By Associated Press)

TOXIC, August .20-In an interview
on arriving, Viscount Ishii, Japanese
ambassador to Washington. said that
he held an entirely optimistic view
in regard to the relations between the
United States and Japan. He said
there was no collision of interests be-
tween the two countries on any prob
lens although occasionally propagan-
dists may talk about Japanese-Am-
erican war which may lead some peo-
pie to believe that the relations be-
tween the two countries are badly
strained.
He believed that Americas vital in
terests are mainly in the European
and Latin-American markets, and not
in the Oriental market. He thought
that the United States is contented
with the strict observance by the
powers Of the open door and equal
opportunity principle in China and
has never dreamed of an economic
monopolization Of the Chinese market.
To his mind, Americas safety in the
far east lies in her developing China
industrially and commercially, hand in
hand with Japan as well as with the
other powers.
Continuing, Viscount Ishii is quoted
as saying that the thinking people
of the United States feel quite safe
and satisfied with the present situa-
ton in the far east. He believed the
American government and the people
in general are confident that Japan
will not destroy the principle of open
door and equal opportunity at the
expense of the United States. He
approved the American proposition for
the financial consortium for China.
The ambassador declined to make
any statement concerning his report
ed misunderstanding with Secretary
Lansing over the proposal to appoint
Baron Sakatani as financial advisor
to the Chinese government.

PLAN
DEV|ATES FROM
POLICY OF U. S.
China to See Lack Of Friendly
Cooperation in Acceptance
Says Expert.
tBy Associated Press)

WASHINGTON. Aug. 20.-China re-
CARDS American acceptance of the
Shantung provision Of the peace
treaty as a deviation from the Amer
lean policy of friendly cooperation"
toward the Chinese government, the
senate foreign relations committee
was told today by John c. Ferguson,
an American and an official advisor to
the Chinese president.
While not speaking officially for the
Chinese government, DR.. Ferguson
said he based his statement on an
intimate knowledge of Chinese official
opinion.
China's case in the peace confer.
ence, he said, was based on the unani-
nous advice of some of the ablesr in
ternational lawyers of France, Rus
sia, Belgium and Holland, who agreed
that the Chinese declaration of war
nullified the 1915 treaty by which
China agreed not to take exception to
any settlement Japan might make
with Germany regarding the German
possessions in Shantung.

paper which describes this rs the most
ambitious tactical operation under
taken by enemy undersea craft.
The scheme aimed at the blocking
off of the entrance to the Forth by tho
sowing Of big minefield, Three
months of hard work were devoted to
the task by a considerable fleet Of sub
marines, the mines being laid In the
shape Of half moon. But minesweep-
ers had discovered the plan and, as
fast - the mines were planted, they
were cleared away.
It IL recalled that other similar at
tempts to trap the fleet were made In
1915 In the Moray Firth. when over 400
mines were laid. and In 1915 at the
Orkneys. In round numbers, on these
three occasions. the Germans laid /. 100
mines at cost OF $1,000 each. The
King Edward was the only fighting
ship that fell victim in these opera
tons.
Enormous numbers Of mines were
laid by the Germans off Harwich. IL
was found that these fields were
spread regularly at ten-day intervals,
so British sweepers occasionally left
portions Of these waters unswept so
that when the next batch of subma-
rines came along they ran afoul OF
their own mines.
The task OF clearing British waters
of mines is almost completed.
