JAPAN WILL HOLD
TO yAP MANDATE
FOREIGN OFFICE OFFICIAL AZ
FIRMS REFUSAL TO GIVE UP
ISLAND RIGHTS.
May Make Concessions Concerning the
Guam Gable Line to the Extent
of Handing Over to America
the Guam End.

Tokio.-Japan will not yield on her
rights on the island OF
zap, an official of the foreign office
announced ON March 6. She may, how
ever make some concessions concern
ing disposition of the zap cable sta
ton, he added.
The declaration of Viscount Ishii,
this official continued, was made upon
his own initiative, but represents, on
the whole, the attitude which Japan
will take with regard to the zap ques-
ton.
Disposition of the cables, he as
serted, is matter for settlement by
the international conference on com
munications, but japan may make con
cessions 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.
Prima facie title to the cable was
obtained by Japan during the war, he
maintained, when Japan cut the zap
Guam cable.
Asked concerning Japan's attitude
toward the conference between the
United States, Great Britain ant
Japan ON disarmament, the official re
piled Japan was not in position Il
speak definitely until such an invita-
ton had been received.
Japan's frame of mind might be sur
missed, however, he added, from utter
ances Of Foreign Minister Ushid'
agreeing in principle to joining an In
ternational discussion of armamen

Newspapers continue to comment o.
the refusal Of the United States t
accept Japan as mandatory for zap.

LITTLE NATIONS ARE
WARNED BY HUGHES
CESSATION OF POSSIBILITIES DE-
MANpED IN FIRST ACTION
BY NEW GOVERNMENT.
Suggestion of Mediation Is Conveyed
to Panama and Costa RIGA
in Warning Issued by
Secretary OF State.

Washington.-Cess of hOstili-
ties between Costa Rica and Panama
is demanded in notes which, ii was
learned at the state department, had
been dispatched on March 10 the
governments OF those two countries by
Charles l.. Hughes, new secretary OF
state.
This action was the first of the
Harding administration in the realm
of foreign affairs and was said ia
have been based on the ground of
broad expediency, as the dispute be
tween the Central American republics
involved American interests in the
Panaman canal zone.
A peaceful solution of the dispute
over Coto on the basis of the White
award Is understood to have been sug
gested. The notes did not SUCCESS
mediation by the United States, bu
were understood to have conveyed the
impression that this country stood
ready to enforce, II necessary, a peace
full solution.
Dispatch of the notes followed con
ferences between President Harding
Secretary Hughes and John w. Weeks
and Edwin DENLY, new secretaries OF
war and navy Mr.. Hughes took VI
the subject of the dispute with Under
secretary Davis Immediately after hi
induction into office and later spen
nearly two hours with Mr.. Harding.
Secretary Weeks was called in sool
after the conference began and pre-
scented latest dispatches from tn
canal zone. Mr.. DENLY discussed tn
question later with the president.
Replies from Panama and COST
Rica to the notes dispatched severa
days ago by former Secretary Cobb
were received Sunday. That fror
Panama was said to have expressed
willingness to accept the offer Of tn
United States in attempting to settl
the dispute, but the one from Cost
RIGA was described as unsatisfactory.
It was said that the American go'
eminent had no official informatio
that either Panama or Costa RIGA IL
|, tended to submit the dispute to tn
| league of nations, as reported in pres
| dispatches. Saturdays action Of tt
state department, 1t was added, WI
taken without reference to such r
| pOrtS.

'RE|NS OF AUTHORITY
PASS TO HARDING
SIMPLE SERVICES MARK THE IN.
DUcTIoN INTO OFFICE OF
CHIEF EXECUTIVE.
Oath Administered by Chief Justice
White, the President Pressing Lips
to Bible Used at Inauguration
Of Washington.

Washington.-Warren G. Harding OF
Ohio and Calvin Coolidge of Massa-
ehusetts were on March 4 inaugurated
president and vice president of the
United States. Mr. Harding took the
oath at 1: rs p. m. and Mr.. Coolidge
at u 81 p. IN.
The ceremonies surrounding the In
auguration of the new president were
II anything even more simple than
those attending the first Inauguration
of George Washington. The usual
morning salute of naval guns was
missing and there was absolutely moth
ing in the way of a military or civil
procession.
The only troops on hand were from
squadrons of cavalry assigned by the
congressional inaugural committee as
an escort for the new president, 800
marines for guard duty at the capitol
and as many regular army infantry
men from Fort Meyer for guard duty
along the ST. eets.
1t was Mr.. Harding's wish that all
display be eliminated. He said he de-
| sired no parade and also asked that
| the usual inaugural ball be omitted.
Pressing his lips to an historic Bible
| used at the Inauguration of George
Washington, the new president took
the oath administered by Chief JUS
tice White. He had chosen the eighth
verse from the sixth chapter of Micah
saying:
what doth the LORD require of thee
but to do justly and to love mere,
and to walk humbly with thy GOd?"
Before Mr.. Harding had been presi
dent an hour he had revived a prece
dent set by George Washington b.
comforting with the senate in execu
tive session, submitting in person tn
nominations of his ten cabinet Off
GERS. All were Immediately confirmed
Within an another hour he had gon
! to the White House to "hang up hi
hat and go to work"
President Wilson, yielding to the las
minute entreaties of his family and hi
| physicians, took no part in the ina,
, gural ceremonies other than to accom-
pany the incoming president from tn
) White House TO the capitol, where h
e signed some bills and then went wit
: Mrs. Wilson to the new home whic
will be theirs in the residential Sc
e ton of the city.
e Immediately after the Administrative
d Of the oath, Mr.. Harding turned to Il
: vast crowd which stretched across tt
o capitol plaza and began the delivery
/ his inaugural address.
Sound amplifiers carried his vol
to the outskirts of the big assembl
: Calvin Coolidge was inaugurat'
vice president with ceremonies of bri
! simplicity in the senate chamber, W
II messed by distinguished assemble
of diplomats and high officials.
- Coolidge, in short inaugural a
- dress, declared that the greatest fur
ton of the United States senate

Eminent scientific gentlemen hold
that the natural span OF human life is

enough to make the theory seem graft

man and a century ought to 'come

should mark, in like manner, the
