TTTC CDATIirUT XlLld üiUlLlüHi AT CONFERENCE Delegates Anxious to Solve Problem Before Proceeding With Plan3. WORK ON NAVAL TREATY Japanese and Chinese Groups Reach Agreement for Opening Kiao-Cliow. 2:.v Associated Trrs. Washington. Jan. u. with naval treaty virtually completed, the arms delegates arc preparing to turn the conference Fbotlight on Shantung, apparently in the hope that a Mitlrment of that controversy may make It -i'.pr to go ahead with rther troublesome problems of the far et. It now Is the expectation In conferenee circles that during the next few day, and probably until a decision Is reached, the Shantung ne gotiations will have the right of way while dlrcusaion of other far eastern subject remains at a Ftandtlll. So fr the Shantung fxrhanpps have taken place, between the Japanese and Chlneco alone, v.ita American nd Dritiah obwrvers present, hut the next phase of the conff rence propram Is expected at least to concentrate upon the problem the friendly interest of nil the governments represented here. Reach Agreement. At their meeting Friday the Japanese and Chinese groups reached an agreement for opening t:p t lie entire Kiao-Chow leased territory to foreign trade, and Saturday they are to take up other of the collateral questions involved in restoration of the leasehold to China. Their sessions will form the only item appearing on tomorrow's conference program. In the naval negotiations only a few detail.", considered moro or les perfunctory, remain to be arranged. An agreement has lx on reached rerardlng r.ulho la of trapping, under ... , .o- lot,. iricarriers and training ships, and n final settlement relating to Pacific fortifications awaits a reply expected hourly from Tokio. If present plans develop, the final flrnft of the naval treaty will be laid before the full naval committee eirly nest week and will be publicly announced at a plenary session of the conference a few days later. Element of Delay. One possible element of delay in concluding the naval convention was eliminated Fridiy when the French delegation received Instructions from Trr s't Millerand to go ahead with it f .nfrrptic duties rocardlee. of tho cabinet crisis at Paris.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13. Henry Ford's offer for purchase und leise of the government's nitrate and water power projects at Muscle Shoals, Ala., will be referred to congress for final decision, it was announced Friday at the conclusion of conferences between government officials and Mr. Ford. Accompanying the Ford proposal when it is transmitted, Sec'y Weeks said, probably would be the two offers received from Frederick Engstrum, of Wilmington, N. C, and C. C. Tinkler, of San Francisco. The decision to forward tho three offers to the legislative branch of the government, it was stated, was reached after consideration of the question by executive olllcials lasting over a period of more than six months. Under the laws regulating disposition of real estate and other properties owned by the federal government, it was' said, the department larked authority to tako final action and were, compelled to refer the Muscle Fhoals offer to congress for its consideration. Will Draft Contract. Actual transmission of the proposals was not expected to take place for at least two wfks. It was exj plained that the Ford proposal first would be drafted in contract form by law orlicers of the war department nnd be submitted to Mr. Ford for his signiture before it was submitted to congress. While the legal departments are working on the contract form, it was stated. Sec'y Weeks would prepare a report for congress containing what "comments" he believed it-i . i i rt . . t i i , n . . . . i, ,.u ; ... r0'?. wn What my comments are." the secretary said, "will appear when I send the offer to concress. which will be done ns soon as the papers are prepared."

F.xplaining the action taken by th conference, Sec'y Weeks said he was disappointed in that Mr. Ford declined to agree with certain modifications of his plans which were held desirable by his conferees. One of these was known to be that affecting the reduction of the 100-year lease period. The principal modification (Continued on Page 4.)

WILSON GIVES VIEW ON SENATE'S ACTION ?A.V FRANCISCO. Jan. 10Woodrow Wilson declared In a letter written by him January Z, to John H. Williams of San Francisco, and published in the Bulletin Friday, that failure of the senate to ratify the treaty of Versailles deprived the Cnlted States of the leadership id the world. His letter, in reply to one from Williams saying his work had made possible the Washington conference on limitations of armaments, said: "You are right in thinking that the UniUd States was entitled to leadership in the League of Nations; indeed the countries associated with us In the war. and t.ie many les powerful governments which had been benefitted by the results of the war. had already accorded us leadcrship; and the pity of th failure of the senate to ratify the treaty of Versailles wa not only that the nations who took part In the framing of the treaty were denied by our act the justice they sought to secure by its terms, but also that tho United states was deprived of the leadership of the world.'
