WASHINGTON, Nov. IG.—Jnpin, It
developed today, took the Initiative and
made to the elate department a propo
sition now under consideration, sbmo
reference to an incident of which led
to official statements denying that
there waa any friction between the two
countries.
From guarded statements made In
responsible quarters today, the ques
tion Is believed to be broaler than at
first thought. One feature, ft fa under-
stood, contemplate* a restatement by
both the United States nnd Japan re
garding their attitude toward* China
and not Manchuria alone.
Not that there la anything to add
to what already hna been said, it la
explained, but simply a rfiafflrmatlon
of what alrcndy haa been put In black
and white*, to remove any misappre
hension which may exist In the public
mind on the question. 'Then there la
the Japanese emigration and passport
questions, and the proposition made by
Japan, It is thought, possibly may In
clude a reaffirmation by her of her
good Intention to honeetly carry out
her promises In the*© matters.
It Is said at the stale department,
however, thnt the working out of these

live up to iher agreements.
Ever since the Japanese school que*
tlon waa an Issue In California, whs*
It was freely predicted, both In tho

which entered below the upper jawbone
