JAPAN EXPECTED.
TO YIELD IN ITS
ANSWER TO j. 5.
Japan Is Expected to Make Conces.
sions In the CONTROVERSY
Over the zap Island
Mandate.

Washington, April 23. - Japan Is
prepared to make concessions to the
United States in the dispute over the
Island of zap according to authorita-
tive opinion here today. However, this
will not be done for some time yet.
Despite reports from Toyko, Japan
will remain obdurate in insisting upon
the validity of the mandate over Yap
1t was learned here that high Japan
ese authorities incline to the view that
every nation vitality interested in the
Yap issue eventually must make con-
cessions and no one power can have
its full claims accepted.
Japan, it is authoritatively believed,
Will follow a course along this line.
1: In the forthcoming reply to the
United States, Japan probably will
state its position regarding the man
date over zap remain the same, that
the mandate was allocated properly to
Japan by the Allied Supreme Council
and that the American protests
against the Japanese mandate raises a
question which must be finally decid-
ed by all the principal allied powers.
2: At the next meeting of the Su-
preme Council, or possibly before,
! Japan will concede the right of the
United States and all other nations to
free access for cables and other pur-
poses to Yap and the other islands
north of the Equator inundated to
Japan, provided however, Great Brit
ain grants the same concessions in the
former German islands south Of the
Equator inundated to Australia and

Measures Restricting European Reiu.
gees Passed In Same Form
As Was Vetoed.

Washington, April %. - After re-
jecting an amendment seeking to open
the doors of the United States to for
eign political refugees, the House to-
day passed the immigration restric-
tion bill, substantially in the same
form 1t went through last session,
only to be given pocket veto. The
bill now goes to the Senate, where
Republican leaders said today II
would be passed without delay.
The measure is designed to be oper-
ative over a period of fourteen months,
and would limit the entry of aliens to
three per cent. Of the number of ma
tionals Of any country in the United
States at the time of the 1910 census
Three amendments slightly modify.
ing its provisions were adopted by the
House, although it was said tonight
that they might be stricken out by
the Senate. One would permit admis.
sion in excess of the three per cent
limit Of all aliens clearly proving they
had been subjected to religious perse
cution in their native lands and wert
seeking refuge hero solely to avoit
such hardships.
The principal fight was over al
amendment offered by Representative
SABBATH, Illinois, ranking Democrat oil
the Immigrtion Committee, to opeI
the gates to political refugees, includ
ing Donal O'Callaghan. This was los
after long debate, which was closeC
by Representative Mondell, the Re
publican leader, who said that unde
it even the former German Empero
could come here.
