Concessions Concerning Dis
position of zap Station,
High Official Says.

Toxic, March o--Japan will not
yield on her matfdatoriai rights on
the island OF Yap, an official of the
foreign office told The Associated
Press today. She may. however,
make some concessions concerning
disposition OF the .Yap cable station,
he added.
The declaration OF Niscount Ishii,
this official continued, was made up
on his own initiative, but represents,
on the whole. the attitude
Japan finally will take with regard to
the Iap question.
Disposition of the cables, he as
serted, is matter for settlement by
the international conference on COM
munications, but Japan may make
concessions concerning the Guam
line to the extent of handing over to
America the Guam end. Japan,
however, would continue to hold the
zap end by virtue OF her sovereignty
over the island. 49,
Prirna facic title to the cable was
obtained by Japan during the war,
he maintained, when japan cut the
Yap- Guam cable.
Concerning Japan S position
toward the conference between the
United States and Japan on disarm-
ament the official replied Japan was
not in d position to speak definitely
until such an invitation had been re-
ceived.
Japan's frame of mind might be
surmised, however. he added from
differences of Foreign Minister
Uchida, agreeing in priciple to JOIN
ing an international discussion OF dis

To what extent taxation can be

as may be decided upon,
The appropriations for the next

So the total. including the I meas

above Sj.S00,000,000, Included in thi,
total is about S500,000000 for the

Would Be Surplus.
IF no other expenditures were to
be made during the fiscal year and
il no funds were 10 be used toward
the retirement of the floating debt
there probably would be a surplus OF
about 81 500, 900, 900 out of anticipated
revenue.
The problem confronting congress
is whether this surplus should be
used toward wiping out the floating
debt as was advocated by Former
Secretary of the Treasury Houston,
whether Objectionable taxes such as
the excess profits tax should be re-
pealed and no substitute provided,
or possible contingencies. including
the enactment Of soldiers bonus

[ The revenue IN prospect during the
fiscal year beginning July |, 1921,
aEd ending June 80, 1922, for which
appropriations were just made, totals
about $5,350,000,000 on the basis of
present laws. After taking into ac-
count the greatly diminished returns
caused by the slump in business ac-
tivity, the Treasury department has
estimated that the present schedule
OF internal taxes will yield approx
mately $4,000 100000 for that fiscal
year.
Other Sources Of Revenue.
Other revenues include S550000,-
COO customs receipts i'll prospect IN

amounting to about S500,00O,000 and
miscellaneous receipts amounting to
about S50G, 100000 more.
Comparison of appropriations with
revenue expected under revised tax
! laws cannot be made with any great
degree OF accuracy because of the
fact that while the appropriations
partially made at the recent session
apply to the fiscal year 1922, the
revenue available during the first
half OF that period will be derived
under the present tax law. and that
for the latter half under the new
