Lack of Naval Base Would
Imperil American Ships

In volume just issued, Sea Power
member OF the British Institute OF
Naval Architects, has emphasized thu
Righteousness of the common assump=
ton that the Japanese navy is only
about half as strong as the American
navy. He says that "a feet action
fought in the Western Pacific would
be most pcrIlous venture for tae
Americans, who, being without proper
base, could reckon with certainty upon
losing every disabled ship" This pie
supposes, apparently, the capture of the
Philippines and Guam by the Japanese,
and the dependence Of the American
feet on Hawaii rs it's base of opera
tons
Mr.. Bywstsr holds that Japan would
be foolish TO attack the United States.
He says that war with America would
be "a militarisr gamble more reckless
even than that which caused the ruin
Of the German Empire" But there ar.
many similarities between the auto
cratic militarism of japan and that OF
Germany under William H.
1t is the part of sane diplomacy e
remove as far as possible the causes
! Of war in the Pacific. The calling of
the Washington conference marks tn.
first serious effort to do this by inter
national concert. japan may hold apart
from this effort and try to Illustrate it.
But she can hardly prevent an uncov-
crine of the dangers of situation OF
which the world has been kept too
much in Ignorance. The United States
doesn't mean 10 arm for aggression
But the Washington conference will
show whether or not it ought to keep
on arming in self defense.

Japan Will Not Refuse
To Attend Conference

Japan may do her best to prevent
any general discussion of Pacific ouesIa
tons at the conference But she will
hardly venture to refuse to take part
IN the conference except on her own
terms. The three European powers in
the Allied Supreme Council have shown
disposition to reconsider the irregular
award to Japan of the mandate over
zap. The Japanese would put them

ceclining to allow this award to be re-

Mutual Hatred of Obstetrics

De Valera in Dublin and had held long
conversation with him, ostensibly to
see whether some formula for reconcil-

south might not be found. Sir James

his constituents what he had done, but
they were suspicious of any overtures

So matters dragged along. The Ui-

schedule, and the Ulster Parliament
duly assembled. Not content with this,
Ulster invited King George to come to

Harding's Open Diplomacy
Methods Are Courageous

President Hardng's diplomacy is
TO lay before the world the difficulties
inherent in the Far Eastern situation
and to seek settlement of them
through common action than to let
them tester under cover If Japan
feels the necessity Of armng against
US and we feel the necessity of arming
against her, it is much wiser to let the
American public know why.
The enthusiastic response from all
the nations invited, except Japan,
shows that Europe, too, is deeply in
terested in ventilation of the cues
ton of the Pacific. France, a Pacific
power, is directly concerned in the
maintenance of peace in that quarter.
She is also keen to create an effective
world concert in which the United
States will again take part. Italy has
few Pacific interests. Yet she well
comes Americas reentry into the circle
Of Allied Supreme Council powers,
Great Britain, though still a partner
of Japan in a special defensive alliance
heartily favors an effort to straighten
out the Far Eastern tangle.
President Harding's invitation, in
fact, came at an opportune moment for
the Lloyd George government The
o-Japanese treaty was to expire
by limitation on July Is. 1921. and il
was thought in London that sufficient
! legal notice of an intention to de-
nounce it had been given in a letter
i addressed last summer to the League
/ Of Nations, saying. that il would be
modified SO as TO conform to the re
quirements of the league covenant Al
imperial conference was called to dis
cuss renewal of the treaty, changed
u harmonic with covenant obliga
tons, for another term of years. Blu
positive opposition to renewal wa
voiced by Canada and objection 10 re
newal except with modification agree
able to the United States was ex
pressed by Australia, New Zealan,
and South Africa. The British Foreign
Office, which was apparently com
mitted to renewal, was greatly embar
rassed by the antagonistic attitude OF
/ the demnions.

The Asiatic Review by Brisadief
General c. D. Bruce. Citing the grave
warnings which have been issued on
both sides of the Atlantic, as the time
approaches when the problem must be
definitely faced in England, the writer
says that new factors have arisen as a
result OF the World War which nave
removed the necessity for the alliance.
These are the overthrow of stable
government in Russia, the disappear
ance of Germany as a world power,
and the appalling economic situation.
which may lead to the most severe
economic competition between England
and Japan.
