JAPAN INTENT ON
SOLVING PROBLEMS
OF THE FAR EAST
DESTROYS of Having Three
Settled Before Conference
on Disarmament.
KOREA LOOKING FOR HELP
by Associated rress TO Every Evening

BY Associated prees TO Every Evening
Toxic, Sept. 1o.--Japanese diploma
cy now is being vigorously devoted TO
the securing of settlement of three
outstanding problems before the OPEN
ing OF the Washington conference on
Far Eastern questions and the lfmi-
tation of armaments. namely. those OF
the island of zap. Shantung and ST.
beria.
According 20 Information received in
Toxic the main lines OF solution of
the Zap problem seem TO have been
agreed upon In Washington. but im-
portant details concerning the rights
of the varios powers on the island it
self have yet TO be worked out.
1t Is understood YulSlohi obata. Jana-
nese minister to Peking. has received
explicit instructions concerning re-
newed attempt TO induce China To
|open negotiations regarding Shan
tung. The lIokumin Shimbun today
nterprets Japan's last move as kind
of ultimatum TO China, being in the
nature OF a final opportunity for Chi
ma to inaugurate direct negotiations.
IL China refuses, the newspaper
thinks. Japan viii stick to her funda-
mental ideas of settlement IL the ques-
tion Is brought up in Washington.
officials here describe the Japanese
plans for restoration of Shantung as
conciliatory. They point out that Ja-
pan valves any request for interna-
tional or exclusively Japanese settle
nlent, being content to make Tsingtao
an open port, but insisting on joint
management of the railroad, mining
and other economic enterprises hither-
to directed by Germany. Under the
Japanese plan China would regain full
sovereignty over ShantunR. the Jap
anese troops being completely with
drawn.
The negotiations with the represen-
tatives of the Far Eastern Republic or
Siberia. at Dairen. concerning Siberia
are being pushed actively, japan APP
parently seeking an economic and
commercial treaty with the Far East
ern Republic. so that she can go 10
the Washington conference with an
accomplished fact. NJ. Yourin, the
foreign minister of the Far Eastern
Republic, apparently has been replaced
in the conference by NJ. Pterov, who
is described az being closer to the
Yonriu.
The newspapers believe Japan will
keep the United States government
advised concerning negotiations with
China regarding Shantung and ex-
press the hope that the American con
sui in China will opeil the negotiations.
They predict. however, that owing TO
the political instability Of China, the
Peking government may decide not
to accept responsibility for negotia-
tons.
Speciales dispatch from Korea say
the leaders OF the Korean indepen-
dence government have established
headquarters in RlagovieshtchenslS
Asietic Russia, and plan 70 send rep
resentstives TO Washington TO endeav-
or to arouse pro- korean sentiment.

May Invade Delaware In tho Form of
Oyster Boats.

Prohibition enforcement officers
working from the office of Robert B.
Elliott, State director. claim that the
enforcement of the prohibition law
is growing 10 he big problem.
With the saco llent oyster in sen
SON comes another source of worri-
;nent to Director Elliott. 1t has been
reported that some oyster boats dock
irg in Wilmington and vicinity DO not
carry oysters exclusively but some
of the old-fashicned moonshiIe as
well. Al least Director Elliott re-
ceived informa tion concerning a pos
sihe scheme in smuggling liquor in
20 this city by the above prescribed
method.
il was further learned that in Ches-
.er and other docking places between
that city and Wilmington, small boats
ere taci1ing up and down the Della
ware river awaiting a chance 10 dodge
il somewhere and unload.
Heretofore all boats docking at the
city piers and at the Municipal wharf
have been allowed to do so without in
spectioh but il is probable some ac-
tlon win be taken relative to the
smuggling of rum on floating cara
vans"

zON|NG SYSTEM MAY
Be ADOPTED HERE
Advisory Board Considers City
Planning Idea Beneficial
Elsewhere.

One topic discussed AZ the last meet
ing Of department heads in the Mayors
Office is said by Mayor Leroy Har-
vey 10 be the phase OF city
city planning which comes under the
head Of the "zoning system" !.
The matter of city zoning is coming
to be recognized as one of great i'm
portance. the Mayor said. as shown by
the recent organization of the Ameri-
can City Zoning Bureau. with head
quarters in Chicago.
From one point of view it's object is
the protection Of the residential dis
tricts OF community, as a whole.
against the intrusion of commercial
enterprises Of detrimental character.
Such protection is at present operative
in the case Of restricted streets or
sections. but this is often nullified
when adjoining. sections or streets
alter their character.
The finding of some method by
which the development of city
can be foreseen, in a general way,
and the adoption of a board plan for
making the growth follow certain
lines is the basic idea which has
proved popular as well as practical
where applied, and seemed to appeal
to all those who attended the con-
ference.
The other side of the plan, that of
giving special facilities for industry
and trade. also has deep consideration
in such planning, and its advantages
are easily seen.
