which the bill will become law. The
bill in its present form will yield

take its place in the center Of the
Armament Conference carpet, and
offer its answer to the demand that
she must revise her policies, both as
to armament, and the extension of her
dominion throughout the Far East
Those idealists who at first thought
that this was to be disarmament
Conference have been rudely awak-
end othe fact that the United States
proposes to keep up rather vigor-
Gus policy of increasing it's armament
| so that when five million dollar
battleship is used as target, as
was the case recently that there will
be more modern vessels to take its
place. A London correspondent,
now in Washington, remarked that
the question of how far the United
States is willing to go in taking its
place in international relations stands
at the root Of the success of the
Conference. There is no lack of
challenge on the part of the foreig-
ners in saying that the United States
rather ungraciously backed out of
its agreements made at Paris. In
q very polite way they voice their
| pleasure in the fact that the United
States has been selected for the Sc
cond international parley, BECAUSE
they feel that agreements reached in
Washington are likely to be not mere
ly signed, but ratified. With this
insistent demand growing out of
the Conference it is quite possible
that the United States may stand
with Japan in the center of the
carpet, and our nation will be ask
ed to show why it called the Confer
ence unless it proposes to assume
the obligations resulting from it.
Great Britain will also have to give
an account of herself, and the mother
country is very apt to find herself

IN HOLIDAY ATTIRE

holiday attire for the Conference
an dthe intelligent people in the city
are specu,ating with those not so in
telligent i'll studying the varied de-
corations OF the flags Of all the ma.

magnifcently displayed everywhere
They have changed some since the
early days of excitement during the

that her ancestor was John Hancock

independence, thought certain flag
must necessarily belong to the Gee

WASHINGTON LETTER :
BY J. Z. JONES. :
DIPLOMATS AND

DlPI OMATS AND
TRUTHFULNESS
It is just as easy to figure out the
future Of the Armament Conference
in Chinese as in any other language.
For the first time in the history OF
Washington one of its great banks
has carried display advertising In
the daily papers, printed in Chinese.
This likely indicates that good deal
Of Chinese money has been brought
in, and that the bank wishes to show
its respect for it by including 1t
among its deposits. Admiral Tsai
of China, told an attentive audience
1t the American University, how di-
plomats are to be regarded. "a di-
plomat is man sent abroad to lie
for his country" he observed, to
which he added that he believed that
'theFe are Americans in that class"
But this great Cinnamon expressed
the hope that the day Of the lying
diplomat is drawing to close, and
he paid wonderful tribute to former
Ambassador Arson Burlingame, who
was sent from the United States to
China many years ago. The remark
able fairness Of Mr.. Burlingame in
al matters impressed itself upon the
Chinese so that they expressed de-
sire that he might be their own AM
bSssador to the United States. Re
verting to the earliest period of the
country Admiral Tsai told how Ben
Jamin Franklin in his homespun,
was the most respected diplomat in
the whole corps at Paris, even though
A.e was the worst dressed. The at
fairs of China are Of immense i'm
portance in the Conference since it is
. part Of the program to discuss the
affairs Of the Far East with the hope
that the shackles Of oppression may
be shook OF.
THE UNITED STATES AS HOST
The opening Of the Conference
finds Washington in rather hope
fui mood. It is the general rule
born Of experience in the worlds
greatest political city, to regard
every international affair with q good
deal Of skepticism until the matters
in hand are definitely shaped. With
eli the promises that stand out in the
early developments Of the Conference
there is, nevertheless, the knowledge
that when the United Stats entered
into negotiations for world peace
at Paris that all signs were as ia
vorable as they are at this second
gathering Of the diplomats, who are
expected to tell the truth for their
nations instead Of "lying for their
country" The United States is
the host at this Conference and the
other Governments are going to first
try to shape their views to meet our
own.
AFTER THE POLITE
PRELIMINARIES
After the preliminaries Japan will

and about as fine a residence as you
will find anywhere, with three and a
half acres Of ground with it. Good
clearing and some fruit trees. This

who wants the better class of home
with small tract of land with it..
The house was partly built a year
ago and just finished. You know the

the next fiscal year. Many of the
nuisance" taxes have been cut out.
and the maximum surtaxes on per-
sonal incomes has been changed, The
House reduced the maximum from SIS
per cent to 81 per cent, and at the
instance Of the so-called agricultur-
al bloc in the Senate the maximum
was raised to so per cent. A COM
promise will be reached somewhere
between these two figures. In the
present state Of business the new
tax bill is regarded as temporary
measure, and in time as things get
back more and more to normally
it is going to be necessary for Con-
gress to arrange more permanent
piece of legislation.
AS the new tax bill passes from
the limelight in Congress there is
ushered into view the tariff. The
man who wrote jungles about the
things we have with us always,
should have included tariff Of
course the old tariff bill created by
the Democrats was unsatisfactory to
the present administration, which
promptly resurrected the previous
Republican bill, and made it an
emergency" measure. From time
to time the period of its reign hes
been extended, and now i. hes finally
been made to continue until otherwise
provided by law" Sheep raisers
have been raising a merry protest
on Capitol Hill by insisting that the
Republican tariff makers who prom
ised a bill last March, finish their
task. They assert that unless ade-
quate protection for their industry
is granted it will be folly to spend
further Federal funds on irrigation
projects, as it will be useless to pro-
vide grazing lands for sheep and
cattle that cannot be sold. Similar
complaints come from those interest
ed in other industries.
TARIFF BILL IN THE SPRING
The tariff bill is not violating any
of the Senates speed regulations, and
although it has long been through
the House, there is such diverg-
ance of opinion about tariff laws
partly due to wartime results, that
even the Republicans Of the Senate
want to make the measure over to a
very large degred Senator Nc
Cumber of North Dakota fixes Feb
ruary as the earliest possible date
for new tariff bill. The Senators
colleagues will likely say that he is
an optimist, for it is not believed in
Washington that there will be new
tariff bill before Spring. Next
year in the Congressional elections
we will hear all about the new crea-
ton; for it is around tariff debates
that the "cE-year" election revolve.
A new tariff bill placed in operation
| in the Spring will be in state of
confusion along about November, and
the Democrats are counting fondly
and expectantly on this fact. On
such circumstances many fond hopes
have been shattered.

 They are lands that have passed from cultivation into shooting pre- serves or parks, or arable lands which the owner is unable to place under cultivation. In the latter case, com pensation is made, but in the former instance the land is confiscated.
