PAGE FOUR CROWN PRINGE Io UNABLE T0 Wall U3. NOW Emperor of Japan Expresses Regret That Son Is Unable to Accept Invitation of Harding WASHINGTON, April 12.—Emperor Yoshihitto of Japan, in a letter trans- mitted today to President Harding by the Japanese embassy here. expressed keen regret that “unavoidable circum- stares closely connected with” himself precluded him for the present from accepting on behalf of his son, the crown prince of Japan, the president's £ invitation to visit the United States after the completion of his mission to Europe, on which he embarked March 3, “I learn with sincere gratification,” said the emperor, “that your secretary of state recently communicated to my ambassudor at Washington, in an in- formal manner, your willingness to extend an invitation to the crown prince to visit the United States. The gracious thought which prompted you to make this communication is yery highly appreciated, and I keenly re- gret that certa unavoidable circum- stances closely concerning myself should preclude me for the present from accepting on behalf of my son the invitation so courteously offered.” The emperor's message was made public at the White House with an accompanying statement, which said the emperor was said to feel that be- cause of his own somewhat delicate state of health the absence of the crown prince would be undesirable, “though there is reason to believe that later he may take advantage of the president's invitation and make a spe- cial trip to America.” “The president first learned of the prospective visit of the crown prince last month, the statement continued, “and recalling the very cordial and hospitable manner in which so many distinguished Americans had been re- ceived in Japan, instructed Secretary Hughes to ascertain through Baron Shidehara, the Japanese ambassador, if it would not be possible for the prince likewise to visit this country." The crown prince is due to reach England on the Japanese battleship Kashima about May 1.
