Japanese acceptance of a pro- test by British. United States. French and Italian naval com- manders late Sunday against Japanese ivarships operating too close to neutral vessels eased fol- llle limo bclllg what threatened to become a dangerous international situation.

Vice Admiral Kiyoshl I-fasegtlwa. commanding Japanese naval forces at Shanghai. acceded to the for.

cign commanders‘ request that ills ships ill the Wllangpoo be kept below its confluence with

Soochow Creek. away from the pal-t of the International Settle- ment where British and Amcrl- can interests centre and from the berths of foreign warships.

Admiral Sir Charles Little. Com- mauder-lll-chlef of the China station of the Royal Navy, and his American. French and Italian colleagues protested against "tr- rcspollsible firing" by Japanese warships lying close to their own vessels.

The protest was made on the French adinll-als initiative. but it was understood all were anxious to prevent a repetition of the fatal shelling Friday of the American Flagship Augusta. in which one seaman ivas killed and 17 wound- ed

Admiral Hnsckzlwa sent his clllcf of staff to explain that al- though “in principle" he must in- slst that the Japanese warships had os much right off the settle- lnellt waterfront as those of oth- er nations. nevertheless he would keep his ships below the Soochow Crock Bridge.

Naval officers felt that the Japanese wished to avoid incur- ring the condemnation of foreign nnval authorities here and hence agreed to cease operations close to foreign vessels. which it was felt had drawn Chinese flre danger- ously near the latter.
