their acceptance" Of the plan laid
down.
Hughes Position Believed Fixed.
Plainly put, the American position Is
that Secretary Hughes has laids down
~ program fair to all concerned. one
that is particularly liberal where
&pan is concerned. and that having
hid 1t before the conference the other
nations can either accept 1t or they
Hn reject 1t. There the American
&se is rested.
sGThe crux OF the whole matter, &C.
Birding to Americas naval experts,
~ the Japanese insistence upon .
1N-10-7 ratio with the United States
snd Great Britain, and British insist.
<hce upon elimination Of the submar-
fnes. British opposition to submarines
q based on moral" grounds; British
nQOkesmen have declared submarines
Tdirty" weapons that can too easily
~ put to attack defenseless merchant
ships.
ITO this argument, the American
spokesmen have replied that sub
marines are legitimate weapons to the
kgitimately inclined. They have also
nbinted out that the British position
u inconsistent, for, while raising OBJ
;ections to submarines on moral
grounds, the British have not raised
any objections to the use Of aircrafts.
which also are capable Of dirty" work
oyer unfortified cities.
British and Japanese Confer.
The British have carefully refrained
from indicating their attitude toward
Japan's claims to a greater capital
ship ratio, and the Japanese with
equal care have refrained from indi-
eating their attitude on the subma-
rine question. There have been,
however. frequent consultations be-
tween British and Japanese experts.
While there have been no tangible
evidences Of team work." the state
ment Of the American position against
both propositions was timed with
care.
Meanwhile, the conference resumed
its work today on questions relating
to China and the Far East. The COM
mittee of the whole met again in Sc
cret in the Pan-American Union build
ing to take up consideration of China's g
declaration of independence" where
the discussion left off on Thursday.
Baron Shidehara. the Japanese am
bassador. whose temporary indisposi-
ton caused a delay in the considera-
ton Of Chinas case, has fully recov-
cred, 1t was said at the embassy.
1t In not Japan's intention. Prince
Tokugawa said, to submit a Far East
program" to the conference. Japan
is willing that the discussion should
hinge about the questions raised by
China.

Eight members of the family Of

There is no other way Of allaying
her reasonable, just fears except by
a permanent binding Association OF
World Powers to put an end Tor ever
to the headlopg scramble for Asia
that began a century and a half ago
in India between the French and
English. to recognize frankly and to
nut Il upon record that that phase
of history has closed. and to provide
some effective means OF restoration

gression in the future.
No doubt, there is a military caste In
japan loving war and not even dread
ing modern war. We have to reckon
with that. When we ask Japan to re.
lease China we ask for something
very much against Japanese habits OF
thought. Her dominant military note
is due both to ancient traditions ano
recent experience. Japan had most
of the fun and little Of the bitterness
of the great war. and her people may
conceivably have higher attitude
toward aggressive war than any Euro

kNELL OF NATION
Western Newspaper unioa S,n Service }

Berlin, Feb. 2.-Dr Walter Simons,
the foreign minister declared in the
Reichstag that the government would
refuse to negotiate on the basis of the
entente decisions regarding repara-
tons and would formulate counter
propositions.
His position was supported by all
the party leaders except the commu-
nists, who heckled and jeered him
when he concluded speaking.
The situation is tense. The first
break among officials came when DIR.
Simons wrote his esignation, but was
pac2ied by President Ebert.
Preceding this a cabinet crisis was
narrowly averted.
DR.. Simmons declaration of the Ger
man governments attitude consisted
of a lengthy criticism of the terms and
concluded:
Not having received an invitation
to the London conference, the German
government cannot accept or refuse to
participate in 1t.
ut declares that it refuses to ne
gotiate on the basis of the entente de-
tiShohS anu llut II Will lbTiuulatt
counter propositions"
The Reichstag was well filled, but
only a few persons gathered outside
to learn the governments decision.
After a short historical review, the
foreign minister expressed surprise at
the abrupt abandonment of the Sey-
doux scheme of the Brussels financial
conference, which was approved, he
said. by both France and Great
Britain.
He defended the yagueness of his
proposals at Spa on the ground of the
many factors making for uncertainty.
He described the entente note as the
hasty outcome of difficult negotia-
tons.
He promised that the German gov
ernment would Loyalty carry out its
disarmament obligations and would
put itself into communication with the
various states of the empire.
Berlin newspapers are as one in
voiclng the opinion that the repara-
ton conditions sound the commercial
death knell of the German nation and
the economic ruin of central Europe,
including France, Belgium and Italy.
The newspapers display animosity
against the provision for Il II per cent
tax on German exports.

AARD TO EXPLAIN POISONING
3aientIsts Unable to Tell Why Bites Of
Some Animals Are Fatal and
Others Innocuous.

Scientists In Great Britain have
been greatly Interested in the recent
tnse OF monkey bite resulting In the
death of the king of Greece, says a
London dispatch. The result is that
. study is being made of the effects of
bites from various animals. Inasmuch
- the monkey Is what is known as u
clean FEEDER" 1t seems extraordinary
mat the bite Of such an animal should
produce the fatal poisoning of a hu-
man being.
It does not, however. appear that
the maiignancy of an animals bite
an be measured by what 1t feeds
upon. A dog Is carnivorous crea-
ture, YET Its bite seldom produces seri-
Gus results. while on the other hand
