Rain recalling to mind similar
days In France, greeted the
American Legionnaires who ar
rived Saturday to attend the ma
ttonal convention Of the legion,
which opens Monday.
But the ties Of friendship were
stronger than mere physical COM
fort and on dozens Of downtown
street corners stood groups of
khaki clad soldiers oblivious of
the downpour, living again the
days of Chateau Thierry and the
Argonne.
Here and there in the groups
were seen men leaning on crutches
or canes. To them the tales Of
the thrilling days brought back
especial emmories, and frequently
pale faces would light up with
animation as one or another
would call to mind some feat or
heroism performed by "Yanks."
Sunday the first Of the noted
foreign military men who will at
tend, are to arrive. They are Gen
eral Diaz of Italy and General
Baron Jacques of Belgium. Ella

been arranged.

! These are the questions our early
visitors already are asking in Wash
ington and they are recognized as but
the forerunners of more embarrassing
questions which are to come soon after
the conference gets under way.
Secret Sessions
1t is becoming more and more ap-
parent every day that the discussions
within conference will be of such deli
cate nature as to make public sessions
virtually impossible. There will of
course be public sessions and finally

conference will be made behind closed
doors. They may not be the closed
doors Of the council chamber but they
will be the closed doors of embassy
cloisters and sequestered after dinner
retreats.
The five great powers attending the
Washington conference will be the
United States, Japan, Great Britain.
France and Italy. All Of these powers it
must be remembered are members of
the council Of the League Of Nations
all except the United States All of
them were induced to make the League
of Nations part of the treaty of Yer
sailles through the persistence Of the
American delegation at Paris. The
spokesman of all of these nations have
at one time or another expressed the
sentiment that the United States had
legal and constitutional right to
withdraw from the agreements entered
into at Paris. but all have left the in
ference of the moral obligation in
volved.
Hope for Broaden Policy
All of the reports reaching Wash
ington from Europe agree that the
nations are coming to the armaments
conference hopeful that out of it will

senate during the last two years. II
they are bluntly told there is to be no
change, that we are willing to under
take no obligations whatever in Europe,
there is no doubt they will politely but
firmly inquire just why they should
become entangled in American and
Japanese Pacific affairs If the United
States is unwilling to lend a helping
hand in Europe.
It is the formally announced purpose
of France to ask for protection against
Germany in return for any Pacific sup
port on her part or in return for a !!
reduction Of her land forces.
1t has been announced from Wash
ington that the conference is to be
an entirely practical one and it is plain
already that it's agreements can be !
reached by only practical methods.

Inc early visitors to Washington
both from Europe and from the Orient
bluntly state that the official dele
cations now on the Atlantic and the
Pacific speeding toward American
shores are coming to Washington de-
They are coming prepared to guard
their own national interests with jeal-
Gus care. They are coming prepared
to bargain hard in the manner of
practical men and trained diplomats.
No one of the foreign nations will
make move until America lays her
hand. face UP on the table confidently
believing that they are right and that
the other nations will be forced to fol-
low them, the American commers are
prepared to do this They fully ap-
preciate that the attitude of the for
eign delegation will be exceptionally
terse:
Here we are; what is it you would
have Of us?'
America Asking Nothing.
The American point of view is that
this country is asking nothing at the
conference but high minded coop
Grafton for the furtherance of peace of
the world. She has failed to impress
foreigners because of the fact that the
far eastern and the Pacific problem;
the foreign problems which vitally con
cern the United States-have been in
cluded in the scope of the parley.
The impression has gone abroad
that America is asking good deal of
the conference and naturally there has
come the query as to what we are
willing to give in return.
America it is pointed out for in

Gel and denouncc her treaty of alliance
with Japan. There has been plain. if
unofficial. intimation from Washing
ton that thil is so. The United States
virtually takes the position that if
this treaty is not abrogated the con-
ference will be failure from the
start.
France and Italy have no particular
interest in the Anglo Japanese ALI
ance: Belgium and Holland view it
with friendly rather than ,nfriend-
ly eye, for Japan with Britain's back
ing in affairs international, does not
view with alarm the Dutch and Bel
gian possessions in the Pacific.
Japan Will Guard Rights.
Japan is reluctant to give up her
treaty with Great Britain. She sent
her heir to the imperial throne to
England the last summer to give eclat
to the negotiations for renewal of
that treaty, negotiations which have
been postponed year, while the treaty
remains in full force and effect. jap

east.
Therefore. the Washington confer

Pacific problems are concerned, re-
solves itself into this: In any "show

must have the support Of Great Bri- (

 Delegates were present at the Will liam and Mary exercises from all colleges in the country more than 100 years old and honorary degrees were also conferred on Judge Alten B. Parker. democratic candidate for president in 1904 and on Governor Davis. of Virginia.
 President Harding, in academic robes, headed the procession around the college campus prior to the ex- . ercises which were held in the alcove of the Wrenn building, the oldest college hall in the country still in daily use. It was built in 1894.
 Later he went to Jamestown, site of the first English settlement in America, and placed a wreath on the grave of Governor Tardley. who, in 1919, called the first legislative assembly held on this continent.

How To Plant Potatoes To Make
 Big Crop In Salt River Valley

Your land should be absolutely free of Johnson grass; Bermuda will not hurt if you cut the sod up thorough ly, for a green cover crop to SOW now there is only rye, barley or rape, be- cause it will have to be plowed under during the month of January at the latest.
 Potatoes will bring a good price next spring and on our more favored spots of the orange belts they could be planted as eaEly as December and January and harvested in April and May to bring the top price.
 There is absolutely no reason why a great many carloads of early po- tatoes cannot be shipped from Phoenix and the Salt River valley. In fact, I believe this is one of the great est opportunities offered today Tor raising quick money crops.
 If interested in growing potatoes or preparing the soil for potato crops I shall deem it a pleasure to talk the matter over withs you and renqer any assistance possible.
