Serious Discussion OF lmml-

ny WILLIAM PHILIP simms'
International News Service.

Regardless OF official assurances
emsnating from both sides to the
controversy. genuine unessiness over
existing Japanese-American difier-
ences has permested official circles
here.
At the japanese embassy a high Of
ficiaI told the International News
Service today that beyond a doubt
pending questions would be settled
"in a spirit OF open frankness and
sincere friendship" but at the state
Department Secretary Colby would
not discuss the situation for publica-
tion.
IL Is no secret from official and
diplomatic Washington. however. that
conversations" OF far-reaching con-
sequences are now under way between
the American capital and Tokyo. and
that these discussions, far from deal
ing with tho Californian'Japanese dis
pute alone. or with the occupation by
the Japanese OF the northern half or
Sakhalln Island alone. embrace the
whole problem involved in the Far
Eastern policies OF both powers.
"OPEN DOOR, BROAD ISSUE.
Before the negotiations are termin:
ated. IL is understood. not only must
an agreement be arrived at on Jap
anese Immigrants. but the policy OF
the "open door" in the Far East must
become the subject of an understand
ing as well.
At the Japanese embassy here off,
cials declsred themselves very hope
ful that a satisfactory agreement will
be reached on all points now the sub
ject OF conversations, and decry any
attempt to give color to alarmist re-
ports.
When the International News Serv-
ice called their attention to predic-
tions OF a dangerous crisis in jap
anese-American relations advanced in
unofficial quarters, they Immediately
negatived the suggestion.
Whatever questions may actually
be pending between the United States
and japan for fnal adjustment" an
important member of the embassy
staff declared. 81 feel quite certain
that they will in no case be permitted
by either government to drift to q
situation justifying startling predic-
tions.' which. you state, have been in
dulged in. There can be absolutely no
doubt that both governments are ap-
preaching all questions of mutual In
terest in a spirit of open frankness
and sincere friendship, and with the
f1rm determination to find a satisfac-
tory settlement"
The official would not suggest the
nature of the questions under discus
sion, considering the moment inop-
perfume to make public his views.
