Chinese ENJOYS
Remain Silent

tBy International News ScrvlCcD
PARIS, July 1.-THE statement
made be member oi the japanese
commission in an exclusive interview
with the international News Service
late Yesterday that Japan was ready
TO restore iull territorial rights to
Kiau Chau 10 China within six
months, and resents allegations that
she intends to hold kiau Chau IN per
petuity, aroused great interes, in
peace conference circles today. None
OF the Chinese delegates or any OF the
allied delegates vi,ally interested in
the far eastern problem have thus far
commented upon the statement.
I'VE are prepared to restore full
territorial rights in Kau Chau to
China within six months said the
japanese delegate I'VE are most
anxious 10 settle the whole question
We asa nothing better than TO return
the territory IN al accordance with the
treaty of 1915

The japanese delegate told the In
ternational News Service that French
assertions that Baron Maxine had
Landed the big four a secret, written
undertaking to restore kiau Chau tc
China were untrue.
Such a written promise is already
incorporated in the 1915 treaty and in
an interchange OF notes in September
1918 he said The japanese dele

Six Months Time Asked in
Which to Restore Land
By Universal scrvice)

PARIS. July love are pre-
pared to restore the full territorial
rights over kiau Chow TO China
within six months
A member OF the Japanese peace
delegation made tins statement TO
Universal Service today For dIplo-
matic reasons he requested that his
name be withheld from publication,
but emphasized that his statement
means Just what it says. lie con
tinued
I'VE are exceedingly anxious to
settle the whole question and We ask
nothing better than the return OF this
territory IN accordance with the
treaty OF 1915
China Refuses to Negotiate.
at is necessary, however that
China enter into negotiations with US,
which She has heretofore declined to
do"
The Japanese delegate flatly denied
the assertion OF Philippe MllIct
prominent writer on international al
fairs, to the eiiec, that Baron Ma
kino chairman OF the japanese peace
commission, handed the big four" a
formal written secret undertaking to
restore Shantung TO China.
Such a written promise" con'ln-
ued the correspondents informant,
ALREADY is contained IN the treaty
of 1915 as well as in the notes OF
Sep,enibcr, 1918
Resent Insncetity Hint.
"The Japanese peace delegation
will allow no plenipotentiary to doub,
the sincerity of that pledge by ask
ing additional written assurance
n 1T is true that verbal reassuranceS
were given to the big four in this
respect. but no formal, written, secret
instrument was given which, anyhow,
would be entirely superiluous in view
OF our existing formal undertak-
ings"
Millet's article about the alleged
secret written pledge said in part:
Baron Maklnos promise to Glenn
enoeau, Wilson, Lloyd George and
Orlando was secret, but nevertheless
formal None can dub, its SINGER
lily. However the only way to quiet
American apprehen,ions is to publish
the text. which Japan should now do,
France and Britain never would
have consented TO the Shan,ung
clauses ii they involved the dismem-
berment of China.
