JAPAN CLAIMS ABSOLUTE
 CONTROL OF THE ISLAND OF TAP

Washington, March 11.-(By the A. P.) Diplomatic exchange between the Amer ican and Japanese government concerning the status of the Pacific cable center of Tap have left the situation unchanged and it remains for the Harding adminis- tration to dictate the next step.
 Japans reply to the protest against Japanese control of the island sent by the Wilson administration through the American embassy at Tokio is understood to have contained reiteration of the Japanese claim to exclusive jurisdiction by reason of the mandate awarded by the supreme council.
 As to Japanese control of the former German cables centering in the island. against which the American government particularly protested. Japan is said to adhere to the principle of free use of the cables by all persons, but with operation and control remaining under the power that is in possession of the ends of the cables.
 Japan holds that this arrangement ex- ists in the case of the cable that runs from the American owned island of Guam, in the Pacific, to Yokohama, Ja- pan. The American company which laid the cable. It claims, admitted the right of Japan to control the end which was landed iE Japan With Ameflca ,controlI- ing the end in Guam.
 The Japanese view also is understood to be that since direct cable communica' tien between the United States and Asia by way of Guam and Manila already ex ists the lir1 from Guam to Asia via YaI | is ony an indirect overflow connection unnecessary in ordinary times and there | fore settlement of the question of contro | is not urgent.
 Meanwhile 1t .s suggested that sine, the league of nations council has refer
 red the Amrican protest addressed to i
 to the allied nations a reply may com
 from that quartei. which may contain tn
 germ of C basis for adjustment.
 One incidental result of this suspension
 may be the procurement of a settlemen by direct negotiation of the issue betweel Japan and the Netherlands arising frer the claim of the Dutch government t control one of the former German cable
 extending from Tap to the Dutch Eas Indies.
