No knowledge of the so-called "gentlemen's agreement whereby the sents on the Shanghai - Musi- cipal Council
apportioned among British, American, and Japanese in the ratio of five, two, two, was professed yesterbay In a. statement made public by Mr. Amano, chairman of the Amalga- mated Associations of Japanese Street Unions. The Japanese, be said, are confident of being able to get a large representation on The Council th the near future.
"Although there WAS #D 13- usually strong deatre among Japanese rate-payers for three candidates this year," his state- ment says, "to our great regret reasons, to we had. for certain content ourselves with the usual number of two But I am confid- we ent that in the near future 361

Council shewing our Increasing interest in the Municipal administration, on and also every possible occasion through making untiring efforts to seek a good understanding with other foreign communities.
seats
"Our profound interest in the. administration of the Settlement has been evidenced by the num- ber of Japanese voters who have exercised their poling right. Of the total voters of 3,856, there were 880 Japanese voters and 751 of them cast their votes, repre- senting $5 per cent. This excellent result may be taken as favourably indicating the prospect of a move- ment in future for an increase in Japanese seats:
"In order to clear ourselves of any misunderstanding: I would like to add that though the North-China Daily News" made mention in its editorials of 'an Anglo-Japanese gentlemen's agree- ment, the Japanese side has had "no "knowledge of it. I therefore, think that has been a misunder- standing on the part of the jour al."
