ENGL LAND-JAPAN ALLIANCE
DECLARED FRIENDLY TO u. S.
Toxic Ambassador at London Confirms Northcliffe
View That 1t Incurs No Obligation to
Make War America

The Ambassador denies the existence
of any secret agreement between Great
Britain and Japan, and strongly en-
phasizes that although only federal
phraseology is employed in the wording
of the alliance its intention Is obvious
and the alliance would never stand In
the way of a good understanding be
tween Great Britain and the United
States or be used as a means of exert
ing pressure upon Japan's old frien1,

This is the famous Winter Sale that
for many years has set the record for
value giving and selling, not only in
New York City, but in the country. 1t is
the sale that many merchants have tried
to initiate 1t is the sale at which thou
sands of men annually have laid in their
seasons supply Of clothing, always at
rock-bottom prices.
Although all of this clothing or it's
duplicate grade has been on sale in our
own stocks this season at the higher
prices mentioned-some even higher
the market is now SO overturned that the
mere statement of prices and grades
means little or nothing
But the clothing itself means every
thing.
What sort Of clothing is it?
Are the fabrics all-wool?
Is the tailoring all it ought to be
the vital parts by hand?
Are the trimmings up to the fabric?
Are the fashions and patterns cor
rect?
If all these things are RIGHT, then
you may safely buy because with
the low price you are buying good cloth
ing, clothing that will give satisfaction
In this sale-this Wanamaker sale
the clothing is bound to be RIGHT be-
cause it was all made for our regular
selling in the Wanamaker Burlington
Arcade Store, which has the highest
standard of ready-to-wear clothing in
the country; a standard so high that
separate tailor shops are established in
the leading manufactures of clothing so

Special Despatch to THE New YORK HERALD.

New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, ID. c., Jan. 3.
Wide differences Of opinion as to the
methods by which reduction of defence
ornaments may be consummated
throughout the world developed in
the Senate Committee on Foreign Re-
lations to-day in it's first meeting of
the session to consider the subject.
The committee has before it two
resolutions suggesting different ways
in which disarmament may be accom-
plished, one by Senator Borah (Idaho)
proposing that America, Great Britain
and France hold a conference to dis
cuss a 80 per cent. annual reduction in
naval armament for five years; the
other by Senator Walsh (Mon.), Demo-
crat, to have the President accept the
invitation of the disarmament COM
mission of the League of Nations
council for American participation in
disarmament discussions.
Before considering either the conf
mittee heard from Admiral Robert E.
Coontz, Chief OF Naval Operations,
comprehensive outline of the compara-
tive naval strength of the United States.
Great Britain and Japan. His testi-
mony was presented in secret session
and facts laid before the committee
were not made public. 1t is understood
on reliable authority, however, that ne
discouraged any move by the United
States toward naval reduction at this
time, and advocated a continuation of
our naval building programme in ac-
cordance with the recommendations of
Secretary Daniels
The New York herald., 1921-01-04
Against Navy Reduction.

1t developed to-day that the Senate
Committee on Naval Affairs is much
opposed to any present reduction in our
own naval programme, especially in the
three-year building programme now
under consideration by the House
Naval Affairs Committee.
Senator Pondexter Wash). member
4 the Naval Affairs Committee. said
nat even though the Senate were
4 reed to ask for disarmament con-
4 ence with other nations, he thought
= naval programme at the present
ought not to be affected BY IL in
IL way.
The New York herald., 1921-01-04
Borab Explains Measure.

No action was taken by the committee
to-day except to agree that another
meeting of the committee will be held
next Wednesday TO permit Senator
Walsh to explain his resolution. Senator
Borah made statement to the commit
tee in regard to his own measure, and
insisted it was learned that the proposed
conference ought to be confined to the
three nations named therein. He be-
leves that If France were invited il
would render an agreement impossible,
for the reason that France Is impelled
to maintain a great army for fear Of
possible future attack b. Germany, her
ancient enemy: therefore France. II Is
argued. although with no navy of COM
pelling power, would not subscribe to
principle Of disarmament for fear 1t
would look TO the abandonment of her
present military force.
Other members of the committee be-
lieve that in any disarmament confer
ence both France and Italy should be
represented. In fact, one member said
that IL the Borah resolution were re-
ported by the committee, It would be
changed" probably TO include other
nations
= Senator Walsh will insist to the COM
mittee that any programme of inter-
national disarmament should contem-
plate military as well as naval reduc-
tion. He believes also that this country
should accept the machinery already
provided for the discussion of the dis
armament agreement rather than at
tempt to set UP any other machinery
for It: that to have two separate COM
missions working for the same object
might easily lead to discussion of sep
arate programmes for the same ma
tions which obviously could not be
agreed to.

UNIVERSITY NINE
: KEYED UP TO WIN
: FROM YALE TODAY

University, March 25.-(SpeciaL) -The
University Of Alabama baseball team
went through a light workout today in
preparation for the clash with Yale
which viii be played in Macon, Ca. to-
morrow. The work consisted Of hitting
r. practice and a fast workout on the dia-
mond.
Coach Bernier is relying on Sam Hin
ton, the veteran of past seasons, to do
the mound work, and the way the cool
southpaw has been going in the practice
games assured a good brand of twirling
against the big Blue" team.
~ Mulkey, first-year man who has
been going fine. is slated as the other
sabman to make the trip.
For receivers, it is yet undecided
which man will work, as both Luke
Sewell and Nathan have been showing a
: lot of stuff. Sewelrs hitting may cause
the coach to place him behind the plate.
Luke is a finished catcher and has an
arm Of steel. Few thefts are pulled on
this boy and he bids fair to follow in
the footsteps of the famous Joe as a
living pepper box.
q The other men to make the trip are
Hall, third base; Pratt, shortstop; RIGGS.
Stephenson, the heavy-hitting second
baseman whom Wamby of the Indians
praised so highly recently; Garrett, first
base; Clemens, Brown and Buckley, ali
outfielders. The team is confident that
they will return with Yale scalp.

BIG TITLE MATCH.

New York, March ga new locality
for the possible holding Of the Dempsey

here today when a delegation of citizens

the Maryland City had obtained the
pugilistic attraction. Later, when the
bout was awarded to Toledo, the Cum.
berland committee of that period en-
deavored to secure a promise from Rick
