''shook hands across the Pacific" in

Koki Hirota, foreign minister Of
Japan, in q formal note to Roosevelt
administration diplomatic chiefs here,
asserted the Nippon government has
no intention whatever to Provo. :
and make trouble with any other
power"
Secretary Hull, evidently scanning
reported war clouds In the Far East,
based on strained relations between
Japan and Soviet Russia, replied:
u receive this statement with -:.,c-
cial qualification -.
I am glad to take this opportu-
nifty to state categorically that the
United States, on its part, has no de-
sire to create any issues and no in
tent to initiate any conflict In its re-
lations with other countries"
Is Initial Exchange
The Hirota Hull exchange was the
first such passage of good will notes
since President Roosevelt took office
more than year ago.
In their messages. the diplomatic
chiefs {. the two nations uttered def.
mite agreements, using the words Of
Hir0ta, that:
mo question exists between our two
countries that Is fundamentally In
capable OF amicable solution"
Hull concurred In this statement
and added:
If unhappily there should arise In
the future any controversy between
our two countries, the American gov
eminent will be prepared, as believe
1t always has been In the past, to
examine the position Of Japan In q
spirit Of amity -
Further the two statesmen spoke
favorably Of an extension Of trade
between the two countries.
Some close observers here saw In Il
a friendly attempt by Japan to lay
the groundwork for opening discus

tions are not In complete accord.

After replying In kind, Hull added;

OF this opportunity to express my
earnest hope that It may be possible
for all Of the countries which have
interests In the Far East to approach
