By ARTHUR SEARS HENNING. Chlcmc TrlbunR-Otualia lir Lrhnri Wire. Washington, Nov. 11. Whether ) Japan immigrants shall be cx- liencctortn by statute or oy agree ment with Japanese government is a question which congress shortly'will be called upon to determine. Japan is eager to settle the Cali fornia land controversy on a basis of Japan undcrtakiiia to prevent iur ther Japanese migration to the United States and America under taking o safeguard the property rights of 'Japanese already in . this country. The Wilson ahviinistxation appears disposed to compromv,e the differ ences with Japan in line with this Eroposcd compromise, wlrich has eeu the subject of " negotiation by the two governments for several months. If President Wilson and the Japanese government approve the tentative plan woi ked out by Roland Morris. American - ambassador to Japan, and Baron Shidrhnra. Japan ese ambassador o the United States, the agreement will embodied in a new treaty. . New Agreement Necessary. I It is assumed mat Japan will pre fer to give a guarantee of the ex clusion of her nationals from the United States in the form of a new and""more stringent "gentlemen's ' agreement.'' replacing the present in-; formal agreement, which never had been published textually., Under the covenant of the league of'nations. of which Japan is a member, however, she would be required to file any new agreement with the secretariat for publication. Even if the Wilson administration should effect this settlement and sub rait a treaty embodying it to the senate this winter, it is a foregone conclusion that it world not be rati fied and that consideration of the whole matter would be , postponed until after the r(auguratio(ri of Mr. flarding. Thi3 is the prospdlt be cause of 'intense opposition to the plan of settlement proposed. May Terminate Treaty. Governor Stephens and other Cal ifornia leaders maintain that he Jap anese question never will be settled permanently until the "gentlemen's agreement" is abrogated, Japanese excluded by statute and Japanese property holding rights restricted as contemplated by the California referendum measure. To do this it would be necessary first; to termin ate the existing treaty of 1911 with Japan, which accords Japanese the right to enter and reside in t,ht United States and own land except for agricultural purposes. This treaty expires in 1923, but can be terminated at any time upon six montrvs notice. , The question ot moving to ter minate the treaty and of excluding Japanese by statute will be consid ered by the house immigration com mittee when it resumes hfre next week, the hearings on the oriental issue held on the Pacific coast last summer.

Fokker,. inventior fend builder of war time combat airplanes, arrived to day from Rotterdam. The Fokker was the swiftest pursuit plane usd by the Germans on the western front. Mr. Fokker, who said, as a Hol lander he rad taken no personal part in Germany's war operations over the allied lines, predicted rapid . advances in the art of flying in the near future. , "Within the next five or 10 years," he said, "people will be able to cross the Atlantic in less than a day and in mucii more comfort than inftravel by steamer." ', The development of directional wireless, he addefl, would enable pilots to fly by night and in murky weather, as well as on clear days. The greatest need of aviation at present, he said, was construction of flying machines capable of landing on and taking off from small areas, such as the roof of bui'.dings. ...i-i T - - - i Secretary of State Denies 4 ; v ; President Wilsorl Is Worse Washington, Nov. ll.-Secretary J of State Colby ' undertook I to stem the tide of rumors that President i Wilson is a sicker man than the pub lic has been led to believe.
