CHINA TO ADVOCATE
INSIDE open DOOR
New Minister to Cuba Re.
veaIs Aims of Country at
Conference Here.
Rx the Associated Press,


PEKING. September 5-China at the
Forthcoming Washington conference
on disarmament and far eastern ques-
tions will advocate the open door in
the true sense of that term, but
opened from within by China, declared
DR.. Philip K. c. Tyau. chief secretary
Of the Chinese delegation and newly
appointed minister to Cuba today on
the eve Of his departure for Washing
ton.
The open door, he declared. as II
has been observed thus far through
the initiative of foreign governments,
has not prevented spheres of influence
and special privileges which always
will be stumbling block in the way
OF peace in the far east. What China
wants. and hopes the Washington con-
Terence will pave the way. Is removal
OF such stumbling block sooner or
later. DR.. Tyau continued.
Potential Trouble Source.
Naturally. he said. those special
privileges. which are the rights OF
existing treaties can only be elimi-
mated. II ever. through the sympathy
toward China on the part Of foreign
tential source of trouble as long as
they exist. he declared. Therefore,
China will welcome the wiping out
Of all special privileges in China in
the interests of peace and for the
sake Of China's integrity
There will never be complete peace
In the far east, he declared. while
China occupies the position as inferior
to that of any other nation in the
world. and until the spheres of in
f1uence and special privileges cease
to afford course Of friction between
the interested nations. China's inter-
est in the Washington conference will
be to see the adoption Of broad princi-
pies. conducive to peace in the Pa
cific, and IL the discussion Of princi-
pies involves consideration of exist
ing conditions in China. which impede
the application of such principles the
Chinese delegation will be prepared
to lay its case before the conference,
DR.. Tyau asserted.

The absence of delegates from the

before it request for revision Of the
car stops on the G street line Of the

became known today.
1t is understood that the company
itself has asked for the following
changes:
That the eastbound stop on @ street
between 10th and 11th streets be
moved to the southwest corner of
nth and G streets.
That a new stop be ordered on the
southeast corner of 10th and G streets
Tor eastbound cars.
That 4 new stop for west-bound
cars be placed on the northeast corner
OF 10th and q streets.
1t is felt both by the company and
many patrons of the line that the
changes asked for would be Of great
convenience to the public.
An east bound G street car goes
from 18th street nearly to 10th street
before stopping for passengers, al
though the near side of l1th street is
safety stop. In other words. the
cars now stop on the near side of 11th
clear. and then stop again on the far
side for passengers.
A West-bound q street car stops on
the northeast corner of 9th and G.
streets and does not stop again until

By the Associated Press.
MEXICO CITY, September g.
Wholesale resumption of work in the
Tampico oil district is reported in dis
patches from that city. Hundreds OF
workers are returning to the petro-
leum fields. where operations Eave
been resumed as a result of the agree
ment between large American oil
companies and the Mexican govern
ment. reached last week.
Production taxes. which covered
levies made on oil held in storage by
American companies in Mexico, were
paid by a majority of the companies
yesterday. according to an unofficial
statement to the newspaper Excelsior.
This was in line with announcements
made by oil men last Saturday fol-
lowing the agreement with the gov
ernment.
It is understood that the export
taxes have not as yet been paid. but
as these. for the month of july,
were insignificant and were not due
until August Is, it is believed ar
rangements for their payment will be
made soon. Payment of the taxes will
lift automatically the government
embargo on the funds and holdings of
oil companies.
