CHINA
 DELEGATES RESIGN
Ask Appointment of Repre-
 sentatives Who Enjoy Full Confidence.

Shanghai, Sunday. March 2.-(By Tie Associated Press)-The delegates of the northern Chinese government, in session here with representatives of he southern government for ths purrose of adjusting differences which haveIed to fighting during the recent past have teIegraphed their resigna lions 10 Picking, asking that they be replaced by more competent repre- sentatS who enjoy the complete confidence of the government
 It is understood that the actual reasons for the resignations lie in the fact that the Peking government has failed to enforce satisfactorily the armistice in the province of Shensi. where the military government is re- ported To have attacked southern forces, and also that Gnu Chih-Chien, the chief northern delegate. is con sidered as an untrusted mouthpiece whereas the decisions of Tang-Shao- 4i, the head of the southern delega- ton, are binding on the south If Picking accepts the resigna tions, the Peace Conference will break up.
 Observers here believe that if the conference is dissolved the northern nilitarists will have won a triumph and that the Chino-Japanese military convention providing for the building up of a new army officered by men trained in Japan will go forward The ChinO-Japanese military convention, which has been extended by a special clause. signed February 2, to the time when the Allies will withdraw their forces from Siberia, contains military and naval advisership, it is said, which apparently bind China very closely to Japanese advisership and control in Military and naval matters. The details, however, are all kept se- cret and have not been disclosed to the delegates here.
 Gnu Chih-Chien is greatly disturb ed by recent events and said today to The Associated Press:
 If disturbances occur in Picking as result of the breaking up of the conference. such disturbances will be attributable solely to a small military clique which the Peking governmen: cannot shake off,

France. It meant that purely mil
itary transportation would always
come first. In every army the post
exchange has been the target of the
soldiers criticism. It meant that
now this criticism should be visited
upon the Y. N. C. A.. an outside
organization, which in many in
stances was not able to remedy con-
ditions. The recipient Of large
gifts, it was erroneously supposed
the Y. M. G. A. would therefore
furnish everything free Of charge.
To give such free service would
have required a contribution from
the American people far beyond the
total of all their war gifts for all
purposes. The Y. M. G. A. bur-
dened with the canteen had to
charge for food, drinks and smokes.
No other organization attempting
the same job could have done differ
emily Or better in that regard. /.
was a mistake to impose the can
teens upon the Y. M. C. A. and the
organization is to be congratulated
on being relieved Of the work by
General Pershing. who commends it
for having served the army better
than could have been expected"
The public retains its confidence in
the i. M. C. A. We. believe that
the minor defects in its service
were natural and unavoidable. The
public will continue to give the or
g~anization its hearty moral and fin
ancial support, for it deserves it in
the fullest sense. Its severest
critics must admit the vast amount
Of good it has done. 1t outweights
