the earliest days Of the Peace Con-
ference and tho French army as the
United States, Great Britain and
France, SO that France could safely
demobilize her army with the assurance
that an attack by Germany would
bring the two countries to her aid.
Failing this alliance, IL ia argued,
France is forced to maintain q large
army because the German menace Is a
real thing, as Premier BRAND made
clear at Washington.
England, the contention IL, has no
menace ut her very door, and IL is un-
fair to say that the French army should
be reduced In the same proportion as
Sireat Britain Is willing to reduce her
feet.
Premier BRAND will be interpellated
by Socialists and possibly by radical
members OF Parliament with regard TO
tho Washington Conference as soon as
he returns from America.
The Socialists already have given
formal notice that they will ask the
Premier TO explain the attitude of the
French delegation. Deputy Herriot,
leader Of the Radicals, has expressed
dissatisfaction with the position Of the
French delegation regarding land arma-
ment, but is awaiting the decision of
the party committee before deciding
whether he will interpellate the Pre-
mier.

that she could not succeed by a revenge

one would deny that the steps taken at
Washington marked great and notable

declared, was not the old idea OF the

question before the Far Eastern and
Pacific committee. it had been cY.
pccted that Shantung would be reached

still the first question which the Chinese
would urge before the committee
The difference between Japan and
China arc largely over the railroad In
China.
Japan, in its offer, wished to hold,
operate and police the railroad which II
took over from the Germans. China
desired that the railroad be put back
into the status of other foreign CON
cesson roads, that is, under the control
OF the Chinese government. subject to q
certain supervision by officials repre-
senting the concessionaires. There is
little impairment of Chinese sovereign
ty In such an arrangement.
Resist International Control
If the Powers are agreed to an ex-
tension of the consortium to past con-
cessions, Japan's new proposal with re-
gard to Shantung will probably be to
Withdraw and turn the railroad over to
international control. The Chinese in
ssC that international control would
impair the sovereignty of China even
more than the existing concessions do.
Thus definite issue, not between
China and Japan but between China
and all the great Powers, may be pre-
vented when the Shantung question
comes up. It may offer the moment for
China'a gesture Of withdrawal.
In Chfuese circles there is talk OF
drastic action in protest against further
extensions OF the consortium. Chinese
strikes. Chinese boycotts and assertions
by the Chinese Government Of its in
dependence of foreign control are all
discussed. The Chinese have carried
on successful strikes and boycotts
against Japan which arc the cause of
Japan's readiness TO withdraw from
Shantung.
They have also successfully boycottcd
the consortium. The Pckiu Govern
ment has gone to the point Of bank
ruptcy rather han accept loans from the
foreign banking group, borrowing what
money it could from native bankers
upon harder terms than the foreigners
asked and going without money when
it could not effect loans at home.
Americans here who have been long
in business with China believe that the
Chinese can be won over to the con-
to it. Then even the extension of the
conSortium to existing concessions might
be acceptable. But It is not clear from
the attitude of the Chinese here.
Tho Conference on the Far East
seems to be on the rock Of Chinese op-
position. 1t is a very real obstacle.
WIN you profess good will to another
it is hard to apply that good will to 1t

The Tall Drayman
Who Does Things

One cannot hclp but admire the acu :
men and foresight of McCart's ances-
tors In selecting such name for their

consider the needs Of posterity. With

posterity ever done for S?" What in

But let us not worry today about
posterity. Today we must mediate
upon the pleasure and profit, az sug-
gested above, of tempering each occupa-
ton with n name to suit.
What could be more appropriate for
a drayman than McCart? Unless Ii
