JAPAN SEEKS TO
LIMIT ARBITRATION
DESIRES To-AGREE ON CONFER
EAcE PROGRAM IN AD-
VANCE.
CONSIDER MANY SUBJECTS
Does Not Want Shantung and Yar
Questions Brought. Before Con-
ference-Japanese Also Fear
Loss of Rights.

Washing;on.-Alth the eonclu
mons OF the diplomatic advisory coun.
ell of Japan, which has been meeting
In Toxic, are expected to decide final
ly the course Of that country with re-
spect to participation in the proposed
Far Eastern conference, it was said
author1tatively today to be practically
certain that Japan will ask assurance
that a formal agreement as to the
scope of the discussions be reached
before the meeting.
Formulation of such an agreement,
it was said, need not precede an an.
swer from Japan to the overtures
of Secretary Hughes, but must, in
the view of the Japanese government,
come between the reply to the Amer
lean secretary of state and the &C
tual meeting of the conference. For
mutation Of the agreement might come
before the extension of the formal
invitation to the conference; in fact,
there are some indications that the
Japanese would prefer that arrange
ment, but if not, the formal invita-
ton itself will, it is expected, make
these limitations clear.
Principal subjects for discussion by
the proposed conference under the
head of Far Eastern questions are con-
sidered in Japanese circles here to
embrace the status of China; its rela-
ton to other governments; its COM
pick internal economic conditions and
the possibility of reconciling various
conflicting concessions held by for
eign governments as well as individ-
uals. The japanese belief is that
there shall be no interference by the
conference with vested rights and
concessions, but that it is entirely
proper that efforts be made to relieve
friction that has grown out of over
tapping claims. japan claims certain
exclusive rights in Manchuria; Great
Britain asserts control Of sphere OF
influence in the whole Yangste valley;
America has railway C oncessions
through Middle China; Belgium and
Holland also are interested financial
ly in such enterprises, while France
dominates the Chinese postal system
As a countsrbalance to England's
control of the Chinese maritime Gus
toms. Japan also enjoys valuable and
exclusive rights in Fukien province
That the conference might consider
the framing Of some plan for sim
'plif1cation of all these concessions
will be favored by Japan, it is under
stood. incidentally, that would af.
feet the American concession based
on a tobacco tax monopoly, and might
also involve a review of the arrange
ments made by the consortium which
undertook to finance China.

@ UMMERTIME sets many lovely
- scenes as backgrounds for the
summer girl, or anyone else who takes
these backgrounds into consideration
when choosing her frocks. For most
of us, practical clothes for this work
aday world in which we find ourselves
are as important at least as those that
are decorative, and it happens that
the ginghams, chambrays, percales and
other dependable cottons that make
our frocks for work have attractions
equal to those that make the dresses Of
our leisure hours. Special designers
plan these dresses on lines that prove
as charming as any others.
But the business of living requires
us to have frocks for play and leisure,
and summer brings with it the crisp,
diaphanous stuffs that belong to 1t
alone. Organdie and dotted swiss have
their day under the skies of summer,
and she Is wise who makes the most
of it. These materials come In the
most exquisite and flOwer-like color
ings and in white that looks as cool
as snow; they are within the means
of everyone and the easiest to make
up neatly. The pretty models, as
shown In the picture, are very simply
designed and very successful. The
plain organdie at the left is shown In

Broiled Fish.-Broiling over Goals or
under. the gas flame until brown is a
favorite way of preparing the smaller
fish. Fresh fish of one to two pounds
size, or smoked fish, such as tinnan
haddie or white fish, are delicious
served in this way.
Wash the fish, split, season, dot with
fat, place on a creased brOiler and
broil until the flakes can be easily sep
arated. If a gas broiler is used, place
the rack several inches below the flame
and brown. Sliced lemon makes an at
tractive garnish and gives additional
flavor and food value.
Boiled Fish.-BOiled fish is easily
prepared and, when served with a
well-seasOned sauce, is delicious.
Cook whole or, if too large. cut in
pieces. Cover with boiling sailed wa
ter, but do not allow it 30 boil rapidly.
as hard boiling breaks the fish. Cook
for ten minutes per pound. Strong
favored fish, such as carp. is improved
by adding a half cupful of vinegar TO
the cooking water.
Baked Fish.-Use the whole fish or
a piece from the middle of a large one.
II desired, stuff with mashed pOta-
toes, cooked rice, or bread crumbs well
seasoned. Cut gashes down the back
and insert strips of salt pork or dot
with fat. Dredge with fine corn meal
or -four, place in a baking pan and
cook till tender. allowing ten TO twelve
minutes a pound. Sometimes fish is
baked in a tomato sauce or in milk
enough to cover the bottom of the
pan.
Fried Fish.-Small fish may be fried
whole; larger ones should be cut into
pieces suitable for serving. Roll the
fish in corn meal or flour, or dip it in
batter, or in bread crumbs, egg, and
again in crumbs. Fry I'm deep fat. or
in a small amount Of fat in a skillet.
Fish fried I'm deep fat is less likely to
be greasy than when fried in pan.

especially so in the popular shades. as
peach, jade, orchid. pale pink, blue or
canary. Although many organdle and
swiss dresses combine two cOlors, or
a color and white, this dress uses only
one. 1t has a straight skirt with

sleeves are elbow length and the
girtlle is made of organdie.
Many kinds of flowers are made of

THERE are as many little things
i that tone up this summers costume
and lend it an accent. as any season
has afforded. There are wells for those
who like their softening lines, small
fur neck-pieces that are graceful and
kind to their wearers, girdles Of
"ivory" and beads or composition" in
different colors that are new. There
are many new necklaces Of crystal and
of seeds, new styles In beaded purses
and others Of new kinds of leather,
including ostrich skin, and there are
even few new parasols, with those
covered with cretonne a cheerful re-
vival. BY all such means charming
changes and harmonies lend interest to
summer costumes.
A pretty company Of new shopping
bags reveals these necessities made of
summer silks as well as of ribbons.
Tricolette and heavy crepe weaves are
used for them IN the same sort of
mountings as are used for ribbon. In
decorations they seem to have taken
their cues from sport hats, the same
embroideries In yarn and bead work
appear on them. Those Of ribbon pre-
