Baron Takahashi adds in commenting on the agreement. "Hitherto," he says, "America doubted our attitude toward China and was always watch- ing it, but by virtue of this agreement b she, will give up her careful watch. In this respect the new agreement is better than none." Agreement Suceess For Ishil ,FMaruis Okuma, formerly premier, f1 N N'S characterizes the agreement as a signal success for Viscount Ishii and adds nd Four that it officially recognizes facts which already existed. That viewpoint also is taken by some of the leading newspapers such as the Herald of Asia, which asserts that the notes ex- changed between Secretary Lansing and Viscount Ishii "merely put on e paper what already was in practical I Om en existence," the result of which will be the clarifying of the whole political atmosphere of the Far East. Hope isI groif to expressed by the Herald that the agreement will have a be'eficial ef-1 --arcity of fe:ct upon "a small but very active group of men, mostly Americans, who nounced have constituted themselves cham- pions of China against the alleged Japanese aggression, and who have endangered the good understanding between Japan and America by dis- seminating distorted information con- cerning Japanese policy in China."

The Japan Times says that the situ- aticZ which existed prior to the agree- ment might have led to serious devel- opments betwen Japan and America which would have benefited only their common enemy, Germany. "The Ishli- TLansing notes clear away all chance for international forces of evil to do their work. We regard these notes as the most important documents ever exchanged between the United States and Japan and as a vast improvement op any international agreement hith- erto covering the Far East." Nicil-Nichi Criticizes Agreement Some criticism is expressed by the Nichi-Nichi, which decfares that the substance of the new note is rather disadvantageous to Japan and that "the United States seems to have suc- ceeded in fettering Japan's action in China." The paper points out that there are no understandings in the note about an "open door" territorial integrity and equal opportunity in Canada, Mexico, or South America, which are close to the United States, and says: "Japan cannot put in her oar in the settlement of American affairs, but America is free to interfere with Jap- an's activities in China. In short, it is a foolish agreement, guaranteeing as it does America's influence in China while at the same time it places still further restrictions on Japan. Japan and China must always act under the supervision of the United States, while the American government is free to do whatever it pleases in other Amer- ican countries."
