French People, Little Concerned.
Comment by the French press and
the attitude of the public In general
before the mornings developments
indicated that most indifference
toward the demand for the extradi-
ton Of Germans, also the names
are those of men whose deeds
aroused the indignation Of the entire
population OF France. While it can
not be said France has forgotten the
happenings, the great delay IN the
peace negotiations and the slowness
of construction work have created
feeling of indifference with every
thing connected with the peace nego-
tfations not connected with the eco
nomic revival The general feeling
seems to be that France Is not so
anxious to punish the guilty person
as she Is to get coal TO use In pro-
ducing goods for export. In other
words, she would rather recover the
81, 900, 900 tons Of coaf from Germany
promised yearly than the extradition
Of the 800 persons demanded by the
allies.

REPORT AGREEMENT

JAPANESE NEWSPAPERS SAY

Washington, Newspapers of Toxic
report that the Japanese and American
governments have reached an agree
ment in principle relative to the ex-
clusIon Of Japanese laborers from the
United States. It is asserted, however,
that there is a disagreement regard
Ing the methods to be employed.
America is understood to desire pro
visions for exclusion embodied In q
treaty, say the Toxic newspapers, but
japan. it is said. regards this proceed.
ure as humiliating and as forming 8
precedent she might be forced to fol.
low in treaties negotiated In the fu.
ture. Japan is declared TO consider
that measures prohibiting her subjects
from emigrating can be taken only on
her own initiative.
In other respects the negotiations
are progressing, it is reported, and
once this point has been settled an
agreement may be expected
Whether the exclusion OF Japanese
laborers from the United States shall
be effected by a provision OF the new
treaty or through a decree prOmuIgat-
ed by the Japanese government Is said
at Washington to be regarded not as q
question Of principle, but solely OF ex
pediency. w A3
The American position is that the in
clusion Of such provision in the treaty
would facilitate ratification OF the
pact by the senate. The Japanese po-
sition Is that the treaty would be more
likely to receive popular support in ia.
pan If reliance was had entirely upon
the willingness of the Japanese
authorities to execute faithfully an In
ternal law or decree covering the sub

derstood that the Japanese now In
America will be guaranteed equality OF

Of discrimination win be met by dec
Iaration that any restrictions imposed
upon either Japanese in America Oh
Americans in Japan shall be reciprocal
