A Plan Is Proposed Which Would
Bring Forth Six Hour
Working Day

Washington Direct negotiations
have been begun between the United
States and Japan for the settlement of
the questions pending between them.
These include the Island Of Yap, the
immigration question, the alien land
question and the return of Shantung
to China by Japan. The negotiations
are being conducted by Baron Shide
hara, the Japanese ambassador, and
Secretary Hughes. The settlement OF
the Yap question would make unnec-
essary the consideration of this ques-
tiOn by the league of nations.
1t had been expected that the Yap
by the league council, which is to meet
very soon in Geneva. The French
government, in answer to the Amer
lean protest against the award of the
mandate for the Island to Japan, said
it would bring the subject before the
council. 1t is understood that the
basis for settlement in the negotia-
tion between Ambassador Shidehara
and Secretary Hughes will be the in
standardization of the cable privi-
leges on the island.
"Japans promise to return Shan
tung to China, it is said, is to be ex-
ecuted as soon as practicable, and and
without reference of the question to
any European tribunal. The initial
steps have been taken for the evacua-
tion of the portion of the province
held by the Japanese, the military
force having been reduced. Advices
from Toxic have said that this force
would be withdrawn as soon as China
provided guards for the railroad and
property in the towns.
