WASHINGTON, March 30. (By
the Associated Press.) The cele

which the United States in 1917 rec
ognized Japan's "special Interests in

agreement of the Washington and
j Toklo governments.
Diplomatic negotiations between
; tli6 two governments have resulted in
u new understanding based primarily
on the provisions of the nine power
pact written at the Washington arm

applying more effectually "the prin

parity of Interest In China and at the
si.me time do away with an asroi.
ment that wim u source of controver
sy from the very day It was announc
ed. .i
The negotiations for abandonment
of the agreement were successfully
carried on In Toklo us one of the last
official acta of Charles l). Warren of
Detroit the retiring umbassudor to
Japan.
The Lansing-lshii agreement was
signed by Secretary Lansing and Am.
bassador Ishll on November 2, 1917,
in the form of an "executive under
standing" and as such it became Im
mediately effectlvo without the
formality of ratification. Ho nego
tiated with tho utmost secrecy on the
rait of both governments, It created
one of the outstanding diplomatic
sensations of the war days when news
of It first reached the outside world
in press reports from Peking on No
vember. The Chinese government had not
received before the slightest Intima
tion that the agreement hud been pro
posed by Japan to Washington.
Differences quickly developed be
tween tho Japanese and American
translations with particular reference
to the phrase "special Interests."
The Japanese contended that the
flitted States had recognized Japan's
Faramountcy In China. Secretary
Lansing disagreed with that Interpre
tation and the difoferencos remain
ed unsettled throughout the life of
the agreement. The controversal
phrase was contained In the follow
ing paragraph of the agreement:
"Tho governments of tho United
States and Japan recognize that ter
ritorial propinquity creates speclul
relations between countries, and, con
sequently, the government of tho
United States recognizes that Japan
has special Interests In Chinu, partic
ularly In tho part to which her pos
sessions aro contiguous.'
Cnnccilatloa of the agioement at
this time Is regarded by Americun
officials as fortunate, for tho reason
that it removes all ambiguity from
the language of existing conventions
between the United States and Japni
respecting China. These are the
lloot-Takahlra agreement, which In
cludes an arrangement that neither
Japan nor the United States ehall
lake any steps with reference to Chi
na without consulting each other, and
tne nine power ti.Mty, which pro
vides that:
"With a view to applying more ef
fectually the principles of the open
door or equality of opportunity in
China for the trade and Industry of
all nations the contracting powers,
other than China, agree that they
will not seek nor support tholr re
st.octlvo nationals In seeking'
"Any arrangement which might
purport to establish In favor of thu'r
interests any general superiority or
rights with respect to commercial or
economic development, in any des
ignated region ot China:
'Any such monopoly, or prefer
ence as would deprive tho nationals
of any other power of the right of
undertaking any legltlvati trade or
Industry In China or In participating
with the Chinese government, nr with
an? local authority in any category
of public enterprise, or which by rea
son of its score, duration or geo
graphical extent Is calculated to
frustrate the practical application of
the principle of equal opportunity."
