Looking Into Future.

Its that long distance view OF the
consequence of Japanese exclusion
which men like Secretary Hughes
take. 1t is the view which the Sec
rotary of state hoped Congress would
take following his letter to Chairman
johnson of the House immigration
committee two months ago. Hughes
said in so many words that exclusion
would undo the work of the WASH
ington conference. He pointed out
that il would create an atmosphere
certain to poison our relations with
Janan and harass our whole policy of
peace and equality of opportunity IN
China and elsewhere throughout the
far east.
The administration has about
thrown up its hands as far as any
hone is concerned Of inducing tpe
House and Senate committees in con-
ference to reverse Congress action on
exclusion. No official pressure is be-
ing brought to bear on Capitol Hill
to that end from the executive ter
minus of Pennsylvania avenue. IL
would be considered loves labor lost
Congress has not onl" made up its
mind, but is probably without au-
thority now to change ii. There is
plenty of private pressure being
brought to bear on the conferees, of
whom Senator Reed, Republican. of
Pennsylvania, is chairman. Senator
Reed was one of the first to take UNI
bragg at the "veiled threat which
the Senate read into Ambassador
HaDihara's letter.

Word has reached the United States
Of the first diplomatic results of

America. Japan is reported to be ac-
tiYely discussing an understanding
with soviet Russia. For many months
during 1928, under the leadership Of
Niscount Goto, who is known .'the
Roosevelt of Japan" negotiations
with Russia were in progress. A
soviet mission, headed by NJ. Joffe,
spent several weeks in Toxic, but the
project never advanced beyond the
preliminary stage.
Now. according to late Toxic dis
patches, the subject of "rapproche-
mcnt" with Moscow is again promi-
nent in the public mind. Niscount
Goto's dream is that of a Japanese

the way across eastern Europe ana
