(Central) Washington, Oct. a. Baron Slilm Ifei Goto, formerly Jnpanrso foreign minister and n member of the Japanese diplomatic advisory council, said In an authorized Interview hero yesterday that 'Japan "Intend to settle" the Shantung question "so promptly that t, it impractlcablo to set a date." IJaron Goto came to Washington, en toutn from Paris to Toklo, to pay his aspects to I'rc8ldent Wilson, but was ifrcvcntcd by the President's illness from rAlltnsf nf. tlin Whltn ITmiftf. IPt ft Japan, Baron1 Goto said, will soon ratify the Versailles treaty, and when that is done sho will ask Germany to 3mnd over to her all documents con cerning Shantung. "Then," Baron Goto asserted, "Japan will sub mit to Chi nu n definite and liberal pro Vsal as to the hottlcment of German rights. T nm confident that this will be dono within a few months." The former foreign minister was nsked to express his iov of the Senate discussion on the Shantung question. lie rpplicd that his former connections With the Japanese Government had been Mich that his remarks might be mis interpreted as nn expression of official opinion. ITo added, however, that he "admired all publicists, whether in or out of the Senate, who have spoken frankly and straightforwardly for or against the Shantung settlement in the peneo treaty." Baron Goto continued : "I have reason to believe that the plan for Chino-Jnpancso co-operation for the operation o the former Ger man railway of some 270 miles and the former German mines in Shantung has already been formulated in a way de cidedly favorable to Chins. "Some people arc still talking about thonpparcnt indefinitpucss of the time limit within which Japan intends to restorc Klnuehow lo China. Well, I think it would be easy for Japan to fix such a limit, it the time she intends to take to settle the matter were to extend over a considerable period, say two or three years. The fact is that she in tends to settle the matter so promptly ffhat it Is impracticable to set a date. "Japan will soon ratify the treaty, and when that is dono she will ask Germany to hand over to her all docu ments concerning Shantumr. Then Japun will submit to China a' definite and liberal proposal as to toe settle ment of German rights. I am confi dent that this will be done within n few months. And when that is done the fair-minded Americans will agree that the adjustment is just and equitable. "Jtcfcrrlng to the statement emanat ing from China and appearing in the j;apers to the effect that the Chinese peace delegation had not known of the Chino-Japanese agreement of Septem ber, 101S. until Japan disclosed it at the Peace Conference. Tho intimation is, I take it, that Japan kept that agreement secret. How strange that some people still think that the Ameri can public can be gulled by such obvi ous distortion of facts and, may I say, iuch childlike assertions." SLAVS ORDER TROOPS TO AVERT CLASHES Pearfi Ennvs Relinvn finrtnm lit Italian Element Has Chip on Its Shoulder Tarls. Oct. 3. (By A. T.) Comply ing with suggestions of members of the Supreme Council, tho Jugo-Slav Gov ernment has instructed all Jugo-Slav of ficers to nvoid clashes with the Ital ians.
