MlKADO'S GREETING
sent TOPRESDENT
Friendly Overture Seen in
Ambassadors Formal Call
at White House.

Baron Shidehara. Japanese ambassador
to the United States, called upon Presi-
dent Harding yesterday afternoon and
personally extended to him the mikado's
formal message of congratulation and
good wishes upon his inauguration as
President. The reception was held in
the blue room of the White House, ana
was of only ten minutes duration Thc
usual formalities were observed. ana IT
was afterward made known that there
was no discussion of the relations De-
tween Japan and the United States nor
of any other foreign or diplomatic mat
ters. .
There are those who place consid-
cradle significance upon this eXchange
of felicitatio and who consider the
message from Toxic as the forerunner
of future amity and genuine friendliness
between the two nations. II is expected
that the mikado's greeting. which is
known to have been pleasing to MIR.
Harding. will do much toward removing
a more or less general impression that
there is any friction between these two
countries.
Some comment was caused when
the White House announced the re-
ceipt of a score or more OF congratu-
latory messages from various world
rulers upon the occasion of Mr.. Hard
ing's inauguration and one from the
mikado was not included. 1t was eN-
planned that the mikado's message
was delayed because it was directed
to the Japanese embassy here instead
of being sent direct to the White
House.
Immediately following Baron Shide-
hara's formal call the President re-
!ceived Senior Don Francisco Afias.

Panama, who was one of the official
representatives of that body at Presi-
dent Harding's Inauguration. and be-
