AMERICA FIR M IN DEMANDING
 POWERS AGREE

Pledge Against Seeking Con sessions or Monopolies in
 China Is Aim of U. s.
WOULD BIND 8 POWERS
Fortifications Problems Are Still Unsolved in Spite of
 Word From Tokio

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-(By the Associated Press).-An American proposal to redefine the open door policy in China and create an inter national board to examine both exist ing and future concessions which ap- pear to conflict with it. was debated without conclusion today by the far eastern committee of the Washington conference.
 The British and Italians accepted the plan in principle, but the French withheld assent to some of it's pro- visions and the Japanese reserved judgment pending communication with Tokio. The subject will be taken up again tomorrow with all signs pointing to lon and interesting dis cussions.
 The American resolution would bind the United States, Great Britain, Japan, France. Italy, Belgium, Portu- gal and Holland not to seek special spheres of influence in China nor se- cure concessions or monopolies which would abridge the principle of equal economic and commel cial DppCftu- nity
 China would agree to cooperate in maintaining that equality and the and the nine powers collectively would authorize establishment of a board of reference sU review present aBd future concessions to determine whether they conflict with the open door thus defined.
 Except for another inconclusive ses- sion of the Shantung negotiations and informal exchanges among the big five regarding the Pacific for tifications agreement, the meeting Of the far eastern committee constitut- ed the total of conference activities. At the Shantung conversations, the question of mines was discussed with no apparent progress, and the forti- fications problem remained unsolved tonight despite receipt by the Jap anese of partial instructions from Tokio.
 It was around the proposal for an inquiry into concessions now estab- lished in China, as well as those pro- posed in the future, that most of the debate in the far eastern committee Centered. By some delegates it was understood such an inquiry might open up the whole question of Jap- anese holdings in Manchuria, while in other quarters it was suggested that the resolution might, by indirec- ton, lead to review by the board of the famous "21 demands controversy.
