NEW YORK, May 18.— The treatment of Japanese in this country, in the opinion of Masanao Hanihara, the Jap- “anese ambassador, is the only thing that is apt to disturb the friendly relations existing be- tween the United States and Japan. Addressing the Japan rociety here, the ambassador declared that the “happy result” of the Washington arms conference was the “remova- from our mutual International rela that the America: attitude toward the Japanese immi- grant was. the one question the whole bright outlook” whict the minds of both people.” ‘I want you to understand,” saio Mr. Hanthara, “that there is no que? tion of our ‘desire to send in more immigrant: ‘The question is simply one of elementary principle in inter- national intercourse; that is to say, of discrimination or no discrimina- tion based on color or nationality. “Now it is clear to me that Amer- ign wants to be just and that she is (riendly to Japan. On the other hand, Japan has no desire to send to your country such of her people as you do not desire, So with no confilct of great interests between us, and with no cause on either side for distrust or suspicion, but with evident desire and every reason on both sides for a mutually beneficial friendship, I confess that I canno: see why our common intelligence and collective wisdom should fail to find the right solution, fair and satisfy ing to all of us, to a problem which is apparently difficult but really simple. “With this question settled, there will be nothing for years to come that may likely disturb our happy relations.” Discussing the benefits derived from the Washington conference, the am- bassador declared “it has been ap- parent for some time before the con- ference that distrust and suspicion had crept into the minds of some of the people of both countries.” “It seems to me," he continued, “that this had been due largely to influences—some merely ignorant, others malevolent—which had been exerted persistently in recent years undermine the traditional friend- ship of the two countri But in spite of these efforts the conference kaye both countries a real oppor. tunity to talk things over, and the people had a chance to learn wha! was going on.” ganizations of the city have been ap pointed to attend the dinner tonight and to get the message which the board of directors, will have for them At Boston Pittsburgh Boston -.
