u S. AND JAPAN
MAY SETTLE YAP
Negotiations May Be Completed Before
Disarmament Conference
Opens.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-Negotia-
tions are in progress through the form
Of conversations between Japan and the
United States to settle the controversy
over the Island of zap before the meet
ing of the international conference for
limitation of ornaments and there is a
probability of the negotiations being
consummated before the conference
convenes.
The conferences are being held in
Washington and have in view a com
plete settlement of the question invOlv
ing the use of the island as an inter
national cable station
Inasmuch as there can be only one So
luton of the question that would be
acceptable to this government, the nego-
tiatiOns are proceeding upon the basis
of the note made public by Secretary
Hughes on April 5, in which the United
States claimed an equal right with the
other allied powers in the disposal of
the German overseas possessions.
The disposition evinced by Japan to
settle the controversy is accredited to
the japanese desire to have everything
of a pending nature removed from the
realm of controversy before the con-
ference meets so it may stand upon its
own claim that certain other matters,
presumably Shantung, are "accom-
plished facts and therefore not sub
ject to discussion.
