to initiate some action which may
remove the causes Of irritation.
Having In mind that some plan
might be under consideration to cure
the situation, the writer sought from
the highest sources information as to
the purposes Of the American Govern
ment. Would treaty be made with
Japan which would take care of the
points In dispute and thereby super
sede the act OF Congress when rati-
fed by two-thirds Of the United
States Senate? Or would an effort be
made to get straight-out repeal of
the troublesome provision with a
promise to Congress that another
gentlemen's agreement be negotiated
whereby absolute exclusion. could be
secured?
Neither one of these courses seems
for. the moment in contemplation.
There is no disposition to appeal to
Congress to give up the assertion of
Its rights simply to establish the for
eign policy of the country on a bet
ter basis. Eleven years ago Congress
was asked to repeal q law which was
purely within its rights as domestic
legislation, namely the law governing
tolls at the Panama Canal, but the
Chief Executive pleaded for repeal in
the interest Of international amity,
ana Republicans voted with Demo-
Gratis to grant that request.
But the same reasoning, which
causes hesitation to ask Congress to
repeal the provision Of the law passed
last Spring with respect to Japanese
immigration, Is applied by the ad-
ministration In Washington to the
suggestion that a new treaty be ne
gotiated to supersede the existing
law. 1t is. namely. that Congress is
not yet in the mood to reverse itself
Evening star., 1924-12-12

The executive branch of the Ameri-
can Government does not believe 1t
wise to raise expectations In Japan
that something can be done only to
have disappointment result from the
inaction of Congress. Unless there
is hope of satisfactory solution by
Congress itself, the recurrence Of agi-
tation is believed to be harmful to
the relations of the two countries.
This IS on the assumption, of course.
that time will heal the breach and
that left to themselves the people Of
the two countries will come to un-
derstand that what has happened was
the assertion of a domestic right by
Congress and not a deliberate inten-
tion to hurt the feelings Of the Japa-
nese people.
But will Japan forget? And will the
elements which have been agitating in
Japan subside? The American Govern
ment has not had its task made easier
by the policy adopted by japan in con-
nection with the recent protocol at
Geneva The inference that the Japa-
| nese would consider immigration con-
troversies outside of the domain of arbi-
tration has not escaped attention either
| in Congress or in the executive quarters
of the Washington Government.
There are elements which insist
that the Japanese have designs or
the Philippines and will ultimately

KIRBY SUCCESSOR
STILL UNNAMED
Treasury May Leave Post
4, Vacant for Time if Bureau
Head Leaves.

Prospects today were that if Maj.
Wallace w. Kirby retires from his
assignment as director of the Bureau
of Engraving and Printing next Mon
day, when a special act of Congress
authorizing his appointment there, ex-
pires, the Treasury will not have a
new director ready to take his place.
The supposition is that the bureau
probably would run along, on the new
system, which Maj. Kirby and Tres
ary officials have established, with it's
board Of directors, minus Ma. Kirby,
In control.
There are now three assistant di-
rectors, to whom has been detailed
all the principal work of the bureau.
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
Charles S. Dewey is chairman of the
board of directors, which includes the
three assistant directors, Mr.. Dewey's 8
executive assistant and the chairman
of the planning unit at the bureau.
Although the Treasury may have
been giving some attention to the
possibility of having to appoint a
new man to succeed Mai. Kirby, there
were no indications today that he
would be appointed and be ready to
assume Office by next Monday, when
Maj. Kirby will return to the Army,
unless Congress grants an extension
of the act. The possibility of Con-
gress granting such an extension by
Monday seems remote.

APPOINTED HERE
Men Will Take Places Mon
day-Christmas Tree
Fund Granted. e

The District Commissioners today
appointed 50 Of the squad Of new po-
licemen authorized In tho deficiency
bill just approved by Congress to
give all members Of the force one
day off q week.
Although these new men will 60
on duty next week, 1t will not be pos
the day off until the additional 96
men are obtained. Every effort is
being made by the department to
broadcast the fact that these posi-
tions are available in the hope OF
getting the necessary quota as soon
as possible.
When the day-off provision starts
there will be no actual increase In
the actual number Of policemen on
the streets as the result of these new
appointments. However, should a de-
lay of one or two months ensue be-
fore the remainder of the positions
are filled the 50 men appointed today
will have the effect of temporarily in
creasing the number of men on duty
Order Christmas Trees.
The District Commissioners today
authorized the Board Of Education to
spend Sill to purhase Christmas
trees for celebrations in the kinder
gartens of the white and colored
schools.
They also at board session de-
cided to notify the Senate District
committee that they see no objection
to the passage OF q pending bill to
provide for the removal OF the gates
at the entrance to West Executive
avenue.
An order was issued permitting the
Capital Traction Co.. to place two
carloading platforms at the follow
ing points: North side Of Pennsylvania
avenue east of Twenty-hrst street
and on the south side OF Pennsyl-
vania avenue west OF Twentieth

first. development by cheaper money
than private capital would be able to
secure for that purpose, and. second,
marketing OF the surplus power.
'If the Government will accept the
plans suggested by me-" said Mr..
Martin, building the dams and lease
them, and allow private capital to
build and equip the power houses and
distribute the current, paying for the
capital invested by the Government 4
per cent on the amount invested.
amortizing the cost on a. 100-year basis
instead of 30 years, as suggested by
Maj. Tyler, the cost can, be amended
to read as follows: Interest, $444.210;
depreciation, $2S7,000; sinking fund,
$531. 900, making total saving Of
$1.2S2.210.
This results in a total annual cost
for power of s3.272,5e3," Mr.. Martin
said. "as against Maj. Tylers figures
Of $4,534,S03. Conservative figures
based on this change Of plan justify
the assertion that power from these
dams can be brought into the sub
station Of about one-half Of the cost
Of the same amount of power, If
equivalent generating capacity were
installed in steam plants in the Dis
trict." He told the committee that
authority should be given to the lessee
to develop the power at the contem-
plated storage dams, If development
at any of these points was later
deemed advisable.
He suggested that Congress should
authorize the details of the lease to
be worked out by the Federal Power
Commission in conference with the
lessees In advance of construction,
and that no money should be spent
until the lease Is made with a respon-
'sible party.
Key In Another Move.
Mr.. Martin also reminded the com
mittee that the superpower plan sug-
gested as a result of a study cover.
ing the pooling of the power of
the Atlantic seaboard north of Wash
tngton, as proposed by the North
eastern Superpower Committee, of
which Secretary Hoover Is chairman,
assumed the development of the
waterpower on the Potomac River at
Great Falls as one of its key projects
Mr.. Martin emphasized that accord
ing to the best figuring by Maj. Tyler
and the interests that he himself
represents, electric current could be
furnished in Washington, if this
hydroelectric development Is carried
out, at considerable decrease under
the present steam-power cost, includ-
ing capital charges.
