DR.. Wang Defines
China's Position

China's position at the Peace
Conference was recently de-
fined by DR.. G. T. Wang in an
interview with Mr.. Tuohy of
the Press Publishing Company.
DR.. Wang is second member of
the Chinese delegation to Paris,
and one of China's most bril-
liant statesmen. He said:
"We have come here to settle
our differences with Germany
along the same lines as all other
powers. We want the cancella-
tion of the treaties under which
Germany unjustly enjoyed GER
tain rights in China, repara-
tion for damage done our prop
erty, and in addition we seek
ratification by Germany of The
Hague Convention of 1912 for
the suppression of opium traf-
fic, which owing to Germany's
opposition has never come into
operation.
"We furthermore demand the
return of instruments looted by
Germany in 1900 from the I'm
perial Observatory in Peking,
which are of incalculable his
toric value. For us to deal with
Japan over Kiachow would be
equivalent to France treating
through America for the resto-
ration of Alsace-Lorraine by
Germany. To that China will
never under any consideration
consent.
Japan took Kiachow in the
interests of the Allies, with the
help of Great Britain. There is
no question of Japan taking it
for it is to be supposed
that if Germany were not tied
down in Europe by -the.-.Al
armies she would not have fail
ed to send reinforcements to
safeguard Kiaochow."
In regard to the famous
twenty One Demands, DR..
Wang said:
1--WE contend that they are
absolutely contrary to the prin-
:iples Of justice and equity.
They were formulated because

fused were to be effectuated by

OF REUNITED PARTY
Compliments Moore on Having
Friendly Council to Work
for City
URGES NEWSPAPERS TO AID

In expressing congratulations to Con :.
gresham Moore. Mayor Smith voiced
pleasure at a reunited party.
He declared that the next Mayor,
with friendly Council. should be able
to speed up the great program of mu-
nicipal improvements TO which he will
fall heir.
II am glad said Mayor Smith,
that. the party has been reunited. With
friendly Council. Congressman Moore
will have q clear track for the many big
undertakings that he will be called upon
to face. 80
"No man can take this Office without
meeting unforeseen and unexpected
difficulties. Congressman Moore will be
no exception to the rule
"T only hope that the newspapers
which did so much TO elect Congress e
man Moore will stand back of him and
not leave him in the lurch when he
needs them most.
"Thc newspapers, If loyal to him,
can do much toward helping progress,
and can keep the public acquainted with
work being done for the good Of the city.
On the other hand. they can do much
to hinder by unwnrranted criticism of
problems with which they may not be
entirely familiar
81 wish the Mayor eject every sue
cess. and believe that he should be given
support in his efforts to make Philadel-
phia a bigger and better city.
~ remember with pleasure the kind
ness shown me by former Mayor Blank
enburg and the help he afforded me on
entering the office. I will do all in my
power to aid the new official.
Former Mayor Blankenburg invited
me to City Hall TO consult with him,
and gave me many pointers on what I
would have to expect | shall be glad
indeed to extend the same courtesy to
my successor.
az shall invite Congressman Moore to
visit me and will discuss frankly and
fully with him any details of the gov
ernment upon which he may seek infor-
nation.
"The Parkway is open from end to
end and all buildings owned by the city
have been moved along it's length. That
is one project that is out of the way
for the incoming Mayor.
There are others. however, of great
err Importance. that must be attended
to promptly and | will turn my plans
over to Mr.. Moore with best wishes
for his success.

5JUDGESE[ECTED
WITHOUT CONTEST
Votes Somewhat Cut, but SeIec-
ton Merely Ratified Nom
Partisan Ballot Names
FIGHT PRECEDED PRIMARY

The result of the voting on the five
iudgeships was foregone conclusion
from the opening of the polls yesterday,
as there were only five candidates on
the nonpartisan ticket for the five
places.
Those elected were:
Superior Court---Judge William FL.
Keller, present incumbent, Lancaster,
123, ,412 votes.
Common Pleas Court-Judge Joseph
P. McCullen, recently appointed by
Governor Sproul to fill vacancy, 126,-
64S votes.
Orphans Court--Judge George Hen =
derson, recently appointed by Governor
Sproul to fill vacancy, 124, ,740 votes.
Municipal Court-Judges Charles C..
Bartlett, 1913 ,005; Thomas +. Nc
Nichol, ,14S.
Both Judges Bartlett and McNichol
were named by Governor Sproul to fill
unexpired terms.
The judgeships became an issue prior
to the primary election, when the Ware
organization advanced several candi-
dates in opposition to the appointees
filling unexpired terms and who desired
election to Il full term.
Governor Sproul let it be known that
IL the sitting judges were not nominated
il would be considered an affront to
himself. AS a result, the opposition
dwindlcd on primary day, although the
vote for the sitting judges was cut in
various wards.

APPARENTLY.NlEAR. /.
Some optimists Say This Week,
Others Within TenS NJ,
Days
FEAR OF IRRECoNclLABLEs

Washineton, Nov. ). - Hope for
speedy action on the peacp treaty
frightened again when the Senate
voted down one amendment. agreed to
dispose of two more today and rcE
newed informal discussion of methods
to hasten consideraton of reservations.
Last night some of the more optimis
tic predicted a vote on ratification by the
end Of the week. while the leaders oh
both sides thought It likely toRcorne
within ten days at the latest. &t !.
In the background Of all cnlcula =
tions, however, was the possibility Of
an eleventh hour rally by the treaty's
irreconcilablc enemies who have inti-e,
mated more than once that they were
mindful Of the opportunity which
might be presented to talk off a fnalss
rollcall until the session Of Congress
ends early in Decercsc:.
Altogether the situation still was
doubtful, but Republican and Demo
cratic managers seemed confident that
it would clear soor.. While debate
continued today. the manasers held
many conferences, and found, agree
ment everywhere except among the 'ir--
.reconcilables, it was said, to bring
every possible pressure 70 bear for
early action. Tomorrow, Mr.. Hitch
cock, the Democratic leader, expects
to ask unanimous consent for sharp
limitation of debate, and he believes
it will be agreed to.
The amendment disposed Of yesterday
was one by Mr.. Lodge, the Republican
leader, TO strike from the treaty en-
tirely the Shantung provision. The
vote was Al to 90, the proposal falling
by the votes OF virtually the same sena
tors who several days ago defeated the,
committee amendment on that subject:
Early today action will be sought
on the amendment. of Senator Gore. :
Democrat, Oklahoma, for. popular
vote before any declaration of war
and later the, proposal of Senator
La Toilette, Republican, Wisconsin, to
strike out the treaty's labor provisions,
will come up under an agreement ITO
vote finally on it by 8 p. m, Those are
the only amendments remaining before
the Senate, and their disposition will
clear the way for work on reservations

Moore Piles Up
Total of 2I5,539

Continued From PaEo Ono
supposed TO be the beneficiary OF cut
ting by Ware leaders, received a total
vote of 81 ,421. Mr.. Smith, on the
basis OF mayoralty returns, should have
received nearly 10000 votes, but Dem
ocratic leaders knitted him for leopard
i2ing their minority places by accepting
the Charter nomination.
Ware Forces Out for Moore
Ware leaders in the strong controlled
Organization wards threw their en-
tire strength to the ticket and gave
Congressman Moore majorities slightly
in excess OF those given Judge Patter-
son at the primary.
In the Organization wards where the
Moore forces made big inroads on the
Ware organization at the primary, the
majorities for Congressman Moore were
tremendous in comparison to those given
his rival in the primary fight.
Penrose leaders and Independents
also threw their entire strength to the
Ware men on the ticket. Hazlett, for
recorder of deeds, and knight for cor
oner, ran along with Lamberton, the
Independent nominee on the Republican
ticket for sheriff.
The only Ware man on the ticket be
lieved to have been cut to any extent
was County Commissioner Holmes. In
stead however, he ran S420 votes ahead
of Commissioner Quenzel, the Other
Ware nominee.
Light Vote on JddgeshipS
Comparatively light interest was
manifested in the balloting for judicia
Offices.
As all of the candidates for judge
ships were sole nominees, the lack Of
opposition caused thousands of voter.
to neglect the judicial nominees, as il
usual in such cases.
The vote received by the Judicial
candidates was little more than hall
of that received by the Republican
candidates.
Judge William II, Keller, for Super
10" Court, polled 123, ,412 votes. Othe
nominees received the following: Judg
McCullen, for Common Pleas No.
l26, ,64S Judge Henderson, for Orphans

A letter of congratulation will be sent

him successful administration. A res
olution to this effect was adopted at a
meeting of the club at the Hotel Adel-s

The meeting, which was attended by
about thirty members, enjoyed d social
hour following the business session, and
awaited the results Of the election. Mrs.

Frankenfeld received 27G1 and 291S
votes respectively. Burch and Develn
on the other hand polIed only 1871 and
1860 respectively, cut of more than
1000 votes.
In the Forty sixth ward, which had
been generously advertised as the hot
bed of anti Burch and anti Develin
feeling, these two candidates ran well.
Harry A. Mackey, Ware leader of
possibility OF a deep dent in the Burch
and Develin vote in his precinct. The
voters. however. gave Burch S517 votes
and Develin S165 votes. These totals
were not far behind the vote for Con
gressman Moore in the Forty sixth
ward The Congressman pollcd 1882
votes there.
The alleged cutting in the northeast
degenerated in the final analysis to a
total of only 3491 votes for Schumacher
against approximately $4,000 for the
three Republican nominees.
In the Thirty third ward led by
John J. Mckinley, the Ware leader,
Schumacher, received only 673 votes to
1896 for William Il. Horn, Republi-
can nominee, who had been regarded as
the mark for cutting.
The northeast has the interesting
condition of having two councilmen
elect from the same ward. Robert J.
Patton and John J. Mckinley are resi-
dents of the Thirty third ward.
Independent leaders in Germantown
were on guard against the candidacy OF
john w. Graham, Jr., running on the
