Chinese troops or gendarmes be promptly
sent into Shantung to replace the
Japanese troops and insure the security
of property. and that the railroad con-
Meeting Tslngtau with the interior rail-
way system of China be operated under
the joint control OF China and Japan
The cable advices do not disclose what
arrangements are proposed for the
definition OF Japan's economic rights"
in Shantung and Ts!ngtau. but IL is
assumed in some circles here that the
Japanese propose that these shall be left
TO commission for adjustment. Under
the Versailles treaty it Is understood
that the Japanese Foreign Office has
obtained from Germany mass OF docu-
mentary material concerning the titles
to real and other property in Shantuns,
formerly held under lease by Germany.
which Il is proposed to use in negotia-
tions looking to the establishment OF
Japanese claims.
Previous attempts by Japan TO open
negotiations on this subject directly with
China have failed owing to the latter's
inslstence that Japan first state the con-
ditions upon which she would be willing
to retire from Shantung. The Japanese
Government had proposed the appoint
ment of commissioners by both sides to
settle these points, but this was not
satisfactory to the Chinese, in the alb
sence of definite information In advance
Of the scope of the proposed negotia-
tions.
Information was especially desired by
the Chinese. 1t is understood. as to just
what was meant by the Japanese claim
OF protection of Japan's economic in
terests" In Shantung as condition or
relnquishments. Japanese nationals
have many holdings in Shantung, par
.icularly in the port OF Tsingtau, much
OF 1t formerly owned by Germans and
other properties originally held by Chi
nese citizens. The Japanese Government

the repeal OF the excess profits and capi-
tai stock taxes shall take effect
To be considered also, during the last
part OF the extraordinary session and

question of Panama Canal tolls. These
matters will require months.
The reason for the belief that the
tariff bill has been laid aside until next
spring Is the fact that Senate leaders
in discussing the fiscal status of the
Government for 1922 did not take into
account any additional revenue to be
raised by new tariff law. The figures
submitted were those that had been
