Stated Officially BY Committee

nese delegation asks that the powers
represented in this conference disa-
vow all claims to sphere or spheres
OF interest or Of influence or any spa.
cial interests within the territory Of
China" ma
Yap Dispute Settled.
Mr.. Hughes then stated that he de-
sired to announce an important mats
ter 10 the committee. although 1t was
outside the proceedings of the confera
ence. 1t was matter that had ale
most been concluded before the cons
ference convened. He was happy to
state that it had now been completely
settled and an agreement reached be.
tween the United States and Japan.
He referred to the matter of Yap and
the inundated islands north Of the
equator. A convention would be put
in final shape and signed by the two
governments shortly.
Tribute to Vivfani.
Mr.. Hughes remarked that It was
with the greatest regret that he
must now speak of the subject Of
Mr.. Vivianfs departure. He wished
at the same time to express a final
appreciation of his collaboration and
voice the sorrOw-that he himself
and all his colleagues must feel at
their loss.
This was greeted with approval
by all the delegates present.
Mr.. Viviani replied that he had
been much touched by the words of
the chairman; that the date of his
departure had been fixed before he
left France; he had been absent fve
months out of nine on duties that
took him from Geneva to Washing
ton. and it was absolutely necessary
that he now return. He added that
his regret at leaving was tempered
by the fact that his mandate would
be left in the good hands of NJ. Sar.

This, undoubtedly. should apply to

TOXIC LEADER SEES
BIG GAIN FOR PEACE
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
TOXIC, December 13. Conclusion
of the four-power entente for preser-
walton of peace in the Pacific brings
to an unusual completion the aims of
Premier Baron Takahashi is quoted
as declaring.
"The American President must be
congratulated on the grandest con-
tribution to the cause of peace ever
recorded in history" he said. THE
peoples of the world are likewise to
be Congratulated upon the most sig
nificant assurance ever given for the
promotion of their welfare"
He expressed the hope that the ma
tions cooperating in the cause of
peace eventually would realize the
absolute abolition of ornaments.
would Restrict FOrtihcations.
In it's editorial on the subject today
the Jill Shimpo expresses hope for an
agreement for the restriction of for
tifications in the Pacific. 1t says the
four-power entente will undoubtedly
prevent hostilities. but says it fails to
remove a source of sinister rumors
regarding future relations. The edi-
torial asserts that the treaty is too
loose and vague, and disregards
Jauan's vital interests thus far m
sured by the Anglo-Japanese alli-
ance."
The osaka Mainichi Shimbun says
the treaty is significant because it
supersedes the league of nations ar
bitration court for jurisdiction in
lations regarding arbitration. The
NEWSPAPER says the instrument is the
corner stone for more practical and
more effective measure.
Sees Expansion OF Pact.
The Asahi Shimbun regards the pact
as a nowerful expansion of the Anglo
Japanese alliance. The treaty. it says.
introduces a fundamental change in
the traditional diplomatic policy of
the empire and compd1cates more'
than ever Japan's international reia-
lions. The newspaper believes this
should not cause anxiety after the
Pacific clouds have been dispelled
through its enactment.
The Chugai Shogyo Shimpo, IN lts
news columns, says IT the Wasning
ton conference is to be regarded as
a success on account Of the four
power treaty, it must be so in the
sense that the Japanese menace is re-
moved thereby.
The Yomiuri Shimbun accepts the
pact with confidence and expresses
hope that the nations will strive to
attain "the pinnacle OF virtue con-
templated therein"
The Asahi Shimbun sees possible
resuscitation of the Anglo-Japanese
alliance in effect in, the provision Tor
collective action in the event Of dis
putes outlined in article II. The va
mato Shimbun deplores what 1t calls
the weakening Of the empire through
the proposed cancellation of the Anglo-
Japanese alliance since: it believes the
entente does not afford definite
ruarantee to the position of Japan
Mayor Goto, commenting upon the
treaty, sounded a note of warning
against what he termed restriction OF
Japan's efforts at expansion. through
the operation of the entente.
Director. Adashi OF the kenseika
party said:
at IL q noble agreement, but IL far
from 4 practical guarantees OF peace. "

JAPANESE FAVOR
NAWSETTLEMENT
Press, However, at Toxic,
Says Nation Is Being
Coerced.
By the Associated Press.

TOXIC, December 10-The attitude
of the Japanese press. which since the
beginning of the discussion Of naval
ratios has been tending to the crea-
ton of an impression that Japan is
being coerced by the United States.
newspapers giving to Japan the role
of a martyr by declaring that the
United States had issued an ultima
tum to Japan to reply yes or no to
the ratio proposal of Secretary OF
State Hughes.
It is alleged that a communication
from Baron Tomosaburo Kato, head OF
the Japanese delegation in Washing
ton, received at the foreign office
here, relates to Baron Kato'S "conces-
sion" of a 81 and than a 60 ratio. con-
ditioned on the retention by Japan of
the battleship Mutsu.
The newspapers proceed to discuss
the situation on this hypothesis. They
deplore what is termed the Ameri-
can governments purpose not to yield
and declare this serious turn of affairs
took the authorities by surprise.
The Yomi-Uri Shimbun expresses
disappointment over the American
attitude. which it says shows an in
dication of lack of appreciation of
the sincerity of the compromise con-
tanned in Japan's last offer: The
Nichi Nichi and the Yamato Shimbun
comment along similar lines.
1t can be said on good authority
that government officials here do not
share the sentiment Of these news
papers. There is no confirmation of
a report that the officials regard any
communication received from the
conference as having been in the
nature of an ultimatum. On the con-
trary. there is reason to believe that
sentiment in government circles
favors acceptance of the armament
proposal and an early completion OF
an agreement.
In spite of reports from foreign
sources that the government already
has accepted the ratio proposal. it Is
announced that the subject will be
finally discussed by the cabinet and

portions of China's territory are re-
