TOKtO, Fob. 23. (By tho Asso

to invaliduto anti.Tapaneso legisla
tion in California, declared Viscount
Uchitta, foreign minister, today.
"California's 'legislation,' he said,
"is Injurious to Japanese interests,
but that stato has been aetin;; within
her constitution and also that of the
United States."
Tho foreign minister spoke in re
ply to Baron Yoshiro Sakatani, who
after referring to a growing tendoncy
in other Pacific coast states to follow
tho example of California, asked if
the Japanese government was doing
anything to counteract this move
ment. He also Inquired if there were
prospects that the accord being nego
tiated by Koland S. Morris, American
amluissador to Japan, nnd Viscount
Shidehara, Japanese ambassador at
Washington, might be ratified soon.
M. Uehida said an agreement of a
nature advantageous to Japan war
beingarranged by Mr. Morris and M.
Shidehara and that a satisfactory so
lution might bo expected although it
was doubtful whether definite stop:;
would be taken during the adminis
tration of President Wilson.
Ho declared that publication of
matters under negotiation was im
possible, as Japan and the United
States had agreed they should not be
made public.

Harding Understands. .
. NEW ORK, Feb. 24. (Hy the As
sociated Press) Herbert Hoover de
clared in a statement today that he
had left it to President-elect HnrdinK
to decide whether he could be of more
service as secretary of commerce or
as director of European relief.
In a statement to the Associated
Press, he said:
"I left it to Mr. Hill-ding to deter
mine whether he considered 1 can be
of more service to tho public us' sec
retary of commerce or carrying out
tho publiu trust already entrusted to
mo as a private citizen."
NEW . YORK, Feb. 24. Herbert
Hoover, who has been offered the
post of secretary of commerce in
President-elect Harding's cabinet, an
nounced here today ho hud put up to
Mr. Harding a proposal for 'tha gene
ral reconstruction of tho department
and an enlargement of its field. -
Asked If he would enter the cabinet
if bis iews wcro met, ho snld he
had not "put It up to Mr. Harding in
that way."
"It was not a question of 'taku It or
leave It,' " ho said. -

havo general direction over that ex
penditure. "As tho department of commerce
stands today," ho said, "it consists
largely of A group of scientific bu
reaus, which have only a remote con-;
nectlon with commerce itself."
Ho added that if ho should accept
tho position ho saw a way to make
changes, which would make- of it a
real department of commerce."
Harding Plans HouMcclonning. .
ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla., Fob. 24.
(By the Associated Press) As Presi
dent-elect Harding completes foHiu
ation of his cabinet, ho is giving In
creasing attention to tho first bip
administrative task ho will undertake
as president, tho reorganization ; f
the executlvo machinery of the gov
ernment.
Delayed plans have not takon forr.i,
but It is known that Mr. Harding has
in mind sweeping changes In many
of the government departments and
bureaus and that ho expects to enli:;t
in the work of reorganization some of
the ablest administrators he can find.
He Is understood to havo told some
of his advisers that he regards the
chairmanship of .the reorganization
commission as a post virtually- on a
par with a cabinet portfolio.
Public Welfare Dcrpt.
One of the biggest innovations to be
proposed was tho establishment of u
separate department of public wel-'
fare, for which Mr. Harding outlined
his plans in a general way during the
campaign. He contemplates transfer
to this department of several of the
bureaus now working under other de
partments, and In addition there are
to be a number of entirely new bu
reaus to deal with various welfare
problems.
Industrial Itescarch.
A division of industrial research is
to be built Up, possibly taking over
some of the present functions of the
bureau of foreign and domestic com
merce, to make a comparative study
of prices and industrial" condition?
throughout tho world. It Is believed
it will bo possible, on tho other hand,
to abolish entirely Hom of the exist
ing sub-divisloris of the executive do
pjirtnienUj. Involved in the task will be many
broad questions of permanent pnlb-y.
such as the proposal to aboUHh the
shipping board and put a different
sort of executlvo body in Its place.
One suggestion that has been made
to the prcHidenWelf't is that tho va
rious government ugencies now deal
ing with shipping and railway prob
lems'' be brought together in a new
ecutive department of transportation.

ST. AUGUSTINK, Fla., Feb. 24.
Again taking notice of published crit
icism a of his cabinet selections,
President-elect Harding suld todav
that he intended to make no reply ex

administration.
"Our only response, he said, "will
be action and service. Should we
fall In that then we would deserve to
be criticised.'

Note to League of Nations De
nies U. S. A. Ever Agreed
to Jap Mandate for Import
ant Pacific Station Claim
Equal Power in Determina
tion German Possessions.
PARKS, Feb. 24. (Hy the Asso
rted Press) Tho United States
government, in Its note to tho council
of tho Keague of Nations on the qvies
tion of mandates, claims an equal
concern and Interest with the other
principal allied and associated powers
In
the overseas possessions of tier
many and in theif -disposition.
This was shown today when the
note sent by the American slate de
partment and laid beforo the council
of tho league yesterday was made
public. The council again took up
tho note this morning, considering 11
with particular reference to this claim
advanced by the United Stales, Some
of the members held that. America
had forfeited such rights by with
drawing as an associated power from
tho supreme council.
In tho summary of tho note, the
United Slates declared It had never
given Its consent that tho Island ot
Yap be included in tho territories
subjected tf the mandate, of Japan
Tho other principal feature of the
unto was the American contention ol
equal right and Interest In disposing
of Germany's overseas possessions. On
Ibis tho note said
, "As one of the principal and allied
countries tho United States has cqua
concern and inseparable Interest wltli
the other principal allied and asuo
(elated powers In the overseas posses
nlons of Germany and conseimeutly
an equal voice in their . .disposition)
which it is respectfully submitted
cannot be undertaken ' or effected
without its consent." -
Referring to tho attribution of the
Island of Yap -to Japan, tho ' note
reads:
While this government never as
sented to tho Inclusion of the Isi tud
of Yap In tho proposed mandate to
lapan It may ba pointed out that
even if one or nioro ot- t no other
principal allied and associated pow
ers wcro undor misapprehension as to
the Inclusion of the island in tho re
ported decision of May 7, 1919, never
theless In the notes above mentioned
tho United States government makes
clear its position."
(Presumably tho notes referred to
comprised that sont by. tho United
States to Great. Britain November 120,
last," with tho copies, submitted to the
French and Italian governments. The
notes set forth the American position
on tho responsibilities of mandatory
powers. The Japanese mandate was
approved uy tne council ol inu leaguu
December 17 in Oenova).
At tho timo when these notes were
addressed to tho respective govern
ments above lnohtinpd an agreement
bad not boon reached on tho terms of
the allocation of tho mandate cover
ing tho former German Islands In the
Pacific therefore, the position taken
by tho president on behalf of this
government clearly set forth neces
sarily had tho result of effectively
.withdrawing any suggestion or im-
illcatlon of assent, mistakenly Im
puted' to this government long be
foro December 17, 1920, the date of
the council's meeting In Geneva.'
WASHINGTON'. Feb. 24. Stlite

to tho American note to tho League
of Nations council on mandates said
the controversy regarding the. Pa
ciflc Island of Yap was not one hu-
tween the United Slates and Japan,
but between the United States and the
powers that wore party to tho allot
ment of tho mandate held hy Japan.
It wus disclosed that tho protest
of the American government against
the Yap mandate wus contained In
separate notes sent to Great Britain
