HUGHES NOTE IMPRESSIVE Conviction Beached That Time Has Arrived to Have Tnders Land ing With United States. TOKIO. April 11. (By the Asso ciated Press.) Plans for sending' to Washington a distinguished Japanese, who would take up the- entire ran ire of the so-called Pacific problems, in cluding mandates, California, China. Siberia, immigration and armaments, were understood to be In the process -of formulation by the Japanese gov ernment. Official announcement of the In tention of this country to send such a delegate, who would act In a capacity similar to that of ex-Premier VivianI of France, who Is at present In the United States, has not been made, but it was said that the subject i re-. telving serious attention. Hutches Xote la Impressive. The note from Charles E. Hughes. American secretary of state, to the al'ies. declaring that America does not abandon her rights In the peace settlement, especially concerning Ger man overseas possessions, not only created a profound impression in Japan, but has served, in addition, to. crystallize the conviction tnai me time has arrived to bring about a solution of all problems involving REPLACEMENT PROFITS LEVY OF EXCESS SUGGESTED. American Farm Bureau Federation Conference Considers Legisla tion Seeded for Relief. WASHINGTON. April 12. Sugges tion of a 5 Der cent tax on corpo rations to replace the excess profits tax was made to the American farm bureau federation conference today by T. S. Adams, tax expert of the treas ury department. He also expressed opposition to a sales tax. The conference voted to extend an invitation to Senator Smoot, repub lican, Utah, and other advocates of a sales tax, to discuss the proposals. A programme of legislation in the in terest of the farmers will later be placed before congress. The status of farmer co-operative marketing associations under the Sherman anti-trust act, was discussed. Financial requirements of such or ganizations. It was asserted, might necessitate clarifying legislation, The executive committee was urged Japan and America before the rela-1 by speakers to work for extension t ions of those countries reach I f e. time of rediscount of agricul- critical stasre. Japanese foreign office authorities confine themselves to a statement to the Associated Press that the Hughes note is "so Important that it is receiving the most serious con sideration from the Japanese gov ernment, which is anxious to do everything possible to establish friendly co-operation with' the new administration In Washington." Situation Held Critical. It was learned from other Influ ential sources that the opinion pre vails among prominent Japanese that the general situation has gone so far that it requires heroic treatment to prevent the two nations from further drifting apart. It was understood an influential group Is insisting that Japanese for eign policies be remodeled with the particular view to obtaining a set tlement of Pacific problems and i ceneral understanding, permanent In nature, with America. The basis of this understanding would be friendly co-operation Attainment of this programme may involve a change in the Japanese ministry. Major General Giiuchi Tanaka, minister of war, already haa placed his resigns tion in the hands of Premier Hara. Poll lira I Situation Complicated. It Is apparent the political situa tion in Japan is complicated by dif ferences over purely internal ques tions. including the one relative to the betrothal of the crown prince. which seems not to have been settled In some important aspects. However. relations with America, Japanese high officials openly declare, "must be improved." Leading newspapers, in their com ment on the Hughes note, declare It Is liable to place Japan in an em barrassing position, as the allies may find difficulty 'n supporting Japan's claims in the face of insistence upon American demands from Washington: The Yoml-Lri Shimbun expresses the opinion that the quest'on of man dates Is "certain to cause an increase of excitement both In Japan and in America, until it becomes a matter of more intense interest than either the California or Shantung problems. "It may." the newspaper continues, "force America and Japan to take blind action." Waahlnft-ton .oa-Committal. vv ASIfrXGTON, April 12. (By the Associated Press.) Administration officers declined to comment for the present on reports from Tokio that the Japanese government s consid ering plans to send a distinguished Japanese to Washington to take up the entire range of subjects at Issue between that country and the United States. - The view was held that more satis factory results probably could be ob tained by direct negotiation.
