Six Pacific Issues to
Decide Disarmament Fate

Western Pacific.
Both Belgium and Holland, in ad-
dition to the six powers primarily
involved in the conference, will be
permitted to make representations
in connection with the Far East
questions.
Belgium has extensive interests in
China, Belgian capital owning the
Lung Hal and the Kow Ching rail-
ways and the great Kai Ping mines.
Hollands whole life as a trading
nation depends upon her rich island
possessions in the Pacifc-the Dutch
East Indies. This comprises a huge
territory with 100000 population.
Without these colonies and a free
hand in developing their markets,
Holland would be reduced to the
status OF a hfth-rate nation. Her in
terests are readily recognized as
justifying a voice in any agreement
involving Far Eastern affairs
Along broad lines, those are the
questions that must be ironed out
before the conference can get down
to brass tacks on the relative size OF
armies and navies.
N'''fN- N''''ef HN1 o'NphNHA9 Ap Ahtot
key questions, are the attitude OF
Australia, Canada and New Zealand,
and the new position in which the
Philippines may be placed as a re-
suit of the conference.
For it is generally admitted that
with the other questions of expan-
sion and colonization in the Far
East settled on some agreeable basis,
the chances for Philippine independ-
ence at an early date would be
greatly increased.
