Then Peace Terms Discussion

All this naturally would lead to the
discussion of the principle-if not the
detalls-of the peace terms. II the lshil
mission could lay foundation stone or
two for the establishment OF the World
Court, whose mandate would be backed
by the combined armed might of the
present Entente Allies, the mission
would have just the finest chance in all
the world TO immortalize itself in the
grateful memory of hundred genera
tions to come. Neither the British nor
the French nor the Italian mission
seems TO have touched this matter at
all.
Unlike the other missions, the Ishii
mission Is net coming here TO ask
for American men or American
money II should crown itself with
the distinction OF bringing forth joint
~ with the United States the greatest
gift to the generations of men yet
unborn-the gift of permanent peace.

cause.
Trade has been affected for some
time. Now il is affecting the price o!
food. Can Japan spare her ships! YER
tainly not! Yet almost all OF US jap
anese have an idea that the government
of Japan. through the lshu MISSION
might have some such arrangement to
suggest as to send a certain number OF
ships for the usa of the United States
and of the Entente Allies. Japan is a
splendid fool-n thing of this sort;
she has always been proud and is very
likely TO continue to take pride in the
splendor OF heroic follies of this sort.
There is no cure for it at all.

Now, this picture of Japanese eager,

Mission Hurrying to America

papers here. Originally il was TO leave
Toxic about the middle OF July. IL is
coming on the Shunyo Maru, leaving
Yokohama on June 80. 1t will land at
San Francisco on or about July 10.
The Japanese official is not famous for
his love for petty annoyances OF life
and life's travel, such as changing the
date of departure. The only answer 70
this sudden change of date is that at
least one of the weighty questions they
are expected TO discuss at Washington
positively interdicts delay. In other
words, this change has something 20
do with the exchange of views on the
war situation.
And the one thing perhaps which the
government and the people OF the
United States wish 20 know is just

ing. japan is guessing more seriously
than America, naturally. And these are
some OF the Japanese guesses:
The Ishii mission will discuss the
following matters with the government
at Washington:
First-Japan's role as the guardian
Of the Far Eastern peace, or, to put it
in a popular form, the proclamation
OF the Monroe Doctrine Of the Far
East.
Second-American-J relations
and cooperation in China and in all
the continental Asian affairs.
Third-Defining the war aims OF the
two countries so that each may have
n clear understanding OF what the
other is able and willing to do; what
sphere Of activity each is TO cover;
what geographical division; what con-
crete and definite arrangements could
be made for each TO help the other.
Fourth-EXchange of views on the
peace terms.

toward Russia; presenting Just what

As 10 American-Japanese coopera-

full about the japanese stand. Frankly,
Japan wishes TO work with the United
States 10 the fullest extent. Ex-
Premier Marquis Okuma is heartily
in favor of it. The present Premier,
Count Terauchi, goes even furtner
than Okuma-that does not seem pos

The Morgan Of Japan
Raron Shibusawa is so full Of bitter
business experience that he IS some
lines called the Morgan of Japan, but
half a century of business worry slips
from off his shoulders the minute he
dwells upon the Americana japanese CO.
operation in China. In fact, the theme
has been the veritable fountain of
youth for his enthusiasm, and for
wears. Marquis Inouye, ex-Ambassador
10 the Court of St. James's and the heir
70 the famous Elder Statesman, IS de-
cidedly of the same opinion.
And the people OF Japan share the
same view. Even the Overwhelming

quite often cabled to the American

years.

shown at length over the city. The
most wonderful transformations have
taken place since the departure OF the
young military officer. There were
no paved streets. outside of four or.
five blocks on Palafox when he was
here, and he could not repress his
arnazement at the miles and miles of
improved streets as the car was
taken from one section of the city
TO the other. Then the office build

ETC., all made a most wonderful inn
preston on the YOUNG man who was
born and who spent his boyhood days

SAYS BAKER TO BLAME
FOR GUN SHORTAGE

Washington, Dec 13.-Members of
the senate military committee sub
jected Major General Crozier, chief
of ordnance, to three hours of sharp
cross examination, seeking an ex-
PLANTATION as to the delays in provid-
ing the war army with weapons, and
Crozier admitted that there was a
machine gun shortage, but Ameri-
cans in France were supplied with
French weapons. There was lack
of machine guns and rifles in the
training camps. Responsibility for
the shortage was placed by the gen.
eral squarely upon Secretary Baker.
When told of Crozier's testimony.
Secretary Baker said the senate COM
mittee was properly seeking in for
nation as to what was being done
by the war department. He de-
clined to comment on the machine
gun shortage further than to say
Browning gun, as recently adopted,
was approved by special board he
appointed to consider the question.
