Not Yet | ime to 7 ak Peace.
Motono Tells Japanese
ore'sn Minister Asserts Japan Exerng Every Effort
Cooperate With Allies and Is Responsible for
Maintenance of Security of the Far East

TOXIC. Jan. 22.~-Niscount Motono
the japanese Foreign Minister, in his
speech tonight to both houses of Par
Lament, announced that the members
OF the Japanese mission recently sent
to America had, after frank exchange
OF views. established full, mutual ac-
cord between Japan and the United
States in regard to military cooperation
in the war.
Inc enemy powers have frequently
attempted by indirect means to draw
the Entente Powers into pourparlers," :"
said Viscount Motono. "but it is neccs-
sary to regard with much circumspoc-
ton alleged proirers Of peace from our
enemies. We know from declarations
OF our friends and allies what they
consider the bases Of future peace.
These differ appreciably from those
we'll known to be the objects of our
enemy.
we must conclude, then, that so long
as the views arc thus widely apart
there is little hope of peace in the near
future. Nevertheless, | desire TO show
you the position Of the imperial gov
ernment regarding peace. You know
that by the Anglo-Japancse treaty of
alliance the two countries have engaged
rec:procally not to conclude n separate
peace.
Not Yet Time to Discuss Peace
AT the outset Japan adhered to the
Declaration Of London Of September 5,
1914, which obliges the signatory DOW
erS and those which may hereafter ad :
here to make peace only in common
and to consent mutually upon condi
tions proposed by the enemies
Not only has Japan not received up
TO this day any proposition from any
AlIled power whatsoever concerning
peace conditions, but we do not believe
the time has Yet come definitely to take
up negotiations. Japan is continuing to
exert every effort to cooperate 1t is
entirely supcrhuous TO declare that
Japan will continue with loyalty to
support her allies with every means of
assistance materially possible. This
would merely be honorably carrying
out the duties and the obligations of
loyalty toward our allies.
" Gentlemen, the responsibility for
maintenance Of the security Of the Far
East lies entirely with Japan. 1t is
proper that we should not hesitate at a
moments notice to take necessary steps
IN the event that our seniority should
be menaced. will add that in order
to assure lasting peace in the future
we are firmly convinced that Japan
must not recoil from any sacrifice she
may be called upon TO make in the war.
Aid Appreciated by Allies
II am happy to be able to state that
Japan's cooperation is highly apprc-
GATED by the peoples and the govern
ments of the Entente Allies.
I'VE are unable to foresee now what

Labor Conference
Seeks to Abolish
House of Lords
Resolution Is Offered Against
Any Form of Second
Chamber

NOTTINGHAM, England, Jan. Pa
resolution for abolition of the House
of Lords and against any form Of sec
ond chamber was reported to-day to
the labor conference, in annual ses-
sion here
Representative of the railway men
told the conference that the railway y
employees had reached the breaking
point and that the union would back
them if they declined to work on &C
count of lack Of food. The RESPONSE
bility. they said, would be due to mis-
management on the part Of the govern
ment.
The conference unanimously adopted
q resolution for the conscription of
wealth for the payment Of the war
costs.
Bristol delegate asserted that the
American meat trust" controls the
Allies supplies and fixes the prices
which procedure left the market bare
at home and forced the people to buy
meat from the trust. John Robert
Clymes, Parliamentary Secretary to
the Food Control Department, declared
that the food troubles We're due to a
general shortage. and that Baron
Rhondda, the Food Controller. could
not work miracles or invent food. Mr.
Cylmes denied that his department was
at the mercy OF 4 meat trust or that
rationing had been delayed through
political influences.
William Crawford Anderson. Labor
member Of Parliament for Shefel as
serted that the consumers had been
driven to the conclusion that the real
food controller was capitalism.
Famine, he said. was sweeping across
Europe In addition to the danger
arising from the food situation, he
added. there was an untoward indus
trial situation looming on the horizon.
A great industrial explosion. Mr.. An
derson continued, might be dangerous
from the standpoint OF securing a
democratic peoples peace, and unless
the government dealt wisely with food
and protiteers there would be ma
tional disaster.

pETROGEAD. Thursday, Jan "a. A
detailed account Of the Brest-Iitovsk
conference session following General
Uotfman's bold statement Of the aims
OF the Central Powers was published
bv the Smolny Institute to-day. Leon
Trotzky. the Bolshevik Foreign Min
,ster, addre ssing the conference, de-
clared that "tne position of the Aus

Continuing. the Foreign Minister said :
Germany and Austria seek t, cut
OF more than 10000 square versts
from the CORNER Polish kingdom of
the Ukrain ans and White Russians;
and. further, they want TO cut into
territory OF the Let's and separate the
stands populated by the Esthonians
from the same peoples on the main
land. Within this territory Germany
and Austria wish 20 retain their reign
Of military occupation. not only after
the conclusion o peace with Russia,
but after the conclusion of general
peace.
AT the same time the Central
Powers refuse not only to give any cx-
planation regarding the terms of
evacuation, but also refuse to obligate
themselves regarding the evacuation.
THE internal life of these provinces
lies, therefore, for an indefinite epoch
in the hands Of these powers. Under
such conditions any indefinite guaran-

Trotzky declared that he was glad
row that the Central Powers were
speaking frankly, stating that General
Hotfman's conditions proved that the
real aims were builded on quite a diff
ferent level to the principles recog-
nlzed on December 2o, and that real or
lasting peace was possible only on the
actual principle of self-definition.
1T is clear Trotzky declared, that
the decision could have been reache d
long ago regarding peace aims if the
Central Powers had not stated their
aims differently from those expressed
by General Hoffman"
Dr.. Richard Won Kuehlmann. German
secretary Tor forelgn Affairs, replied

General Hofman's aims were the same
as those advanced on Christmas.

Russian Army
Demoralized, Says
Chief of Staff
No Chance of Fighting
Without Reorganization
and Discipline

PETROGRAD. Thursday. Jan. "a
The Russian chief OF staff at the
front paints a gloomy picture Of the
condition Of the Russian armies in a
report to Ensign Krylenko, the com.
mandcr in chief. The army organiza.
tions are utterly demoralized. he says
the officers are inexperienced and the
maintenance Of discipline is impossible
The only possible salvation for the
army. The only chance for offering an
effective resistance. he declares, is for
the various sections Of the armies to
fall back to their natural defences and
undergo thorough reorganization OF
the units under trained leaders.
Many parts Of the Western front are
entirely open, General Bonch- Bruc-
Witch reports, at numerous places there
being only 240 infantrymen to the
mile. The reserves are refusing to re-
lieve the men in the trenches and the
soldiers are deserving in masses
Communications are broken and few
horses are available. The wire en-.
tanglcments have been destroyed tc
facilitate fraternizing and the exchange
Of commodities with the German
armies
Fortified Points Destroyed
At many points. adds the chief OF
staff, fortified points have been de-
stroyed, making resistance utterly i'm
possible on the lines as at present To-
Gated, even with good troops. Various
OF the STATS must soon cease work, he
declares. because of the disordered
conditions, and the economic life of
the army will thus be ruined.

Of Soldiers and Workmen's Deputies
of All Russia convened last night in
the Tauride Palace, where the short
lived Constituent Assembly met M
Sverdlof, chairman OF the Executive
Committee of the Soldiers and Work

congress TO immediately decide on what
basis it would build the Russian state
"whether it should be state governed
by all classes or dictatorship by the
proletariat." After that the chairman
said, the congress should determine the
question Of war or peace

may be the situation in the world af-
Ter the war, but it is certain that while
the common interests Of Japan and
Great Britain in Asia exist the gov
ernments and peoples Of the two ma :
tlons will understand more and more
the necessity Of loyal maintenance
OF the alliance, and l am firmly con-
vinced that this should be the guiding
principle Of our nation.
"One thing desire particularly to
speak OF, namely. the decision taken by
our neighbor (China) to declare war
against Germany in August, 1917. The
increased German power was the
greatest menace to the security of the
far East. All the powers having large
interests bordering on the Pacific rec
ognlzcd the danger. 1t was for this
reason that Japan forced Germany
from Tsing-tau. China recognized that
her interests marched with ours, and
wish now with you gentlemen to cx-
tend the heartiest congratulations to
China for her wise step in deciding to
place herself rcsolutely in the camp
OF the Entente Allies.
"The government last wear sent a
special mission to America for the pur-
pose oil conveying our sincere felicita-
llOnS and at the same time to consult
with the American officials regarding
tho cooperation of the two countries
IN the European War. The members
of that mission exchanged frank views
with the American authorities, and the
result was the establishment of full
mutual accord with regard to military
cooperation.
Japan's Position Recognized
Being convinced Of the sincerity Of
our determination to maintain and
safeguard the independence of China
and the integrity of Chinese territory,
the American government gave recog-
milton of the special Japanese posi-
tion in regard to China. Official notes
were exchanged between the two gov
crnments. Japan and America may
we'll feel qualification at this outcome
of the negotiations, because it demon
strates that the relations which al
ready We're cordial have been cemented
more closely.
"For some time there existed a GER.
tain doubt in America with regard to
Japan's intentions toward China, while
at the same time it is fact, clearly
proved. that by intrigues and under
hand methods our enemies conspired
to create antagonism between the two
nations. 1t is an inestimabc result
obtained by our mission that it has
been able to convince the people Of the
United States of the true sentiments
OF Japan, and thus dissipatc all misun
dcrstandings. ! desire to express the
profound gratitude of the nation and
government of Japan for the reception
and treatment, so spontaneous and
warm, extended by the American gov
ernment to our mission.

naming nearly year. From 1905
to 1908 he was assistant engineer
for the Santa Fe coast lines. He
served as locating engineer for the
Navajo Development Company in
1908 and spent year following that
in the Indian service in charge of a
party surveying Indian allotments on
the Navajo reservation. In 1909 he
spent year constructing dams and

Mr.. Maddox represented Coconino
County in the House, in the first

vocate of any cause in which he be-
lieves. Since going into the army
he has been called upon several times
to act as judge advocate of his regi-
ment. He has a winning personal
ity and has a wide acquaintance
with public men He is a keen OBJ

Lieut.. Maddox will be only one
of a number of army officers and
men serving in France who will be
candidates for Congress in their
home districts this year. There is
widespread and growing sentiment in
favor of sending some men to Con-
ess who have had actual exper-
ience in the trenches and know the
situation "over there" and the needs
of the men. Lieut.. Maddox has been
for every war measure from the
tart. He stood for conscription,
universal military training, an army
large enough to bring Germany to
1er knees and the prosecution OF tn
war to complete victory. Lieut..
Maddox is above the draft age. He
will be SO next October. His re-
sponse to the call to the colors is
the best evidence of his war views.
Tom Maddox came to Arizona
when a boy. He was born at Roam
