"They will not, however, voluntarily reduce these rates for fear of the far-reaching effect of such a precedent.

AWAIT ACTION OF UNITED STATES ON YAP CONTROVERSY Harding Cahinet Will Take Next Step on Diplomatic Relations. By Associ.ited Press: WASHINGTON. March 11 Diplomatic exchanges between the American and Japanese governments concerning the status of the Pacific caDio cemer oi ap. navo iph in' situation unchanged and it remains for Harding administration to dictate the next step. Japan's reply i to the protest against Japanese con- 1 trol of tho 'slnnd cnt hv ) VM1- 1 son administration through the American embassy at Tokio, is understood to have contained a reiteration of the Japanese claim to oxsive jurisdiction by reason of the mandate awarded by the supreme council. A to Jn.pancse control of the former German cables centering in the island, against which the American government particularly protisted, Japan is said to adhere to the principle of free usv of cables by all persons, but with operation and control remaining under the power that is in possession of the ends of the cables. Japan's Argument. Japan holds that this arrangement exists in the case of the cable that runs from tho American ownol island of Guam, in the Pacific, to Yokohama, Japan. The- American company which laid the cable, it claims, admitted the right of Japan to control the end which was landed in Japan with America controlling the end of Guam. The Japanepe view .'iL is understood to be that since direct cable communication between the United States and Asia by way of Guam and Manila already exists, the line from Guam to Asia via Yap is only an indirect overflpw connection unnecessary in ordinary times and that therefore settlement of the (jtn-stion of control is not urgent. Meanwhile it is suggested that since tho League of Nations council has referred the American protest addressed to it, to the allied nations-. Hj a replv may come from that quart. which may contain the germ basis for adjustment. One incidental resr.jlt of his fjs-penj-ion may be the postponement of a settlement by direct negotiation of the issue between Japan and ThNetherlands, arising from the claim of the Dutch government to conti oi one of the former G rman cables extending from lap to the Dutch Fast Indies. :NEW CABINET III THREE HOUR MEET 1 Problems of Departmental Or- . .
