We are about to go into a conference to settle these questions, and to eliminate these causes of friction. Our proposal is that we first, agree to limit our armament.

Most of the arguments on which the League of Nations was defeated could be brought up to defeat as far eastern agreement of the sort that most of the statesmen of Great Britain and Japan regard as indispensable. And the United States Is not the only "nigger in the woodpile." At this moment enters China herself; China doesn't want any political consortium for the future to supervise her. China strongly resents the idea that she is in need of any political guardian. At least, the Chinese delegates here in Washington resent it. Whether the Chinese people would resent it maybe a different matter. There is always the question as to how far these Amerj ican-dressed and American-educated egates really represent the heart of China. However, for the present, they speak for China, and they opose any political consortium. CREAM OF (Continued from Page One.) sweeping reduction of her naval arma- i ment."
