Balfour's Full Speech
On Hughes Arms Plan

you are wholly immune from the
particular perils to which the BTU
ish empire is subject.
Supposing for example, that your
Western States, for whose safety
you are responsible, were suddenly
removed ten thousand miles across
the sea. Supposing that you found
that the very heart OF your en-
pire, the very heart of this great
state, was a small, a crowded island
depending for oversee trade, not
merely. not chiefly. for its luxuries.
but depending upon oversee COM
munication for the raw material OF
those manufactures by which its
superabundant population lives; de-
pending upon same oversee com
munication for the food upon which
they subsist.
Live by Sea Communications.
Supposing II was a familiar
thought I'm your minds that there
never were at any moment OF the
year within the limits OF your
state more than seven weeks food
for the population, and that that
food had to be replenished by
oversee communication.
Then II you will draw that pic
ture, and II you will see all that
II implies and all that 1t carries
with 1t, you will understand why
1t is that every citizen of the Brit
ish empire, whether he comes from
the far dominions of the Pacific or
whether he lives in the small island
In the North Seas. never can for
get that 1t is by sea communication
that he lives, and that without sea
communication he and the en-
pire to which he belongs would
perish.
''Do not suppose that am ut
tering laments of the weakness
of my empire. Far from it. We
are strong, l hope, in the vigorous
life of it's constituent parts. We
are strong, / hope, in the ardent
patriotism which binds us all to-
gether. But this strategic weak
ness is obvious to everybody who
reflects; 1t is present in the minds
of our enemies, II we have enmies.
DO not let 1t be forgotten by our
friends.

four powers-British, French, Italian,

Hughes spoke this nations gratitude

Eager to witness the history max

gathering was slightly different in as.

the same as on Saturday. Gone were
the row on row of Congressman who
supplied the audience for the initial
session, and in their stead came many
women. They flecked the galleries
and boxes in profusion. the brilliancy
of their apparel adding a splash of
color to the otherwise somber setting.
Viviani of France and Borden OF
Canada were the first of the principal
delegates to put in appearance around
the great green horseshoe table.

SALES. S.TAXF|CHT
Sees Encouragement in Change
Of Attitude by Men Who
Once Opposed Plan.

Instead of being discouraged over
the vote on his manufacturers sales
tax in the United States Senate last
week, Senator Smoot Of Utah on the
other hand is quite happy. When ne
first preached the doctrine OF the
sales tax during discussion on the
Underwood tariff several years ago,
Senator Smoot was told by influential
men in Congress that his persistent
course in trying to introduce a sales
tax into American legislation would
be ridiculed.
But last week the Utah Senator
witnessed a thorough change Of heart
In the American sentiment toward
the sales tax, and he predicts that
America will soon follow suit with
Canada. the Philippines, and other
countries which have already put the
sales tax into operation.
Senator Snoot, even at the begin
ming Of his sales tax campaign this
year, wac told that IL he persisted In
forcing the sales tax issue to vote
he would be the only one in favor OF
It, To the contrary, twenty-five Sen
ators rallied to his support, and the
Utah Senator predicts an early adop
ton of the sales tax in America as
remedy to present revenue evils.
Speaking of his attitude toward the
sales tax, Senator Smoot today said:
"The vote last week, instead OF
meaning defeat, really spells ultimate
victory for the sales tax proponents
1t indicates that our national leRiis
lators are gradually converting them
selves to the virtues Of the sales tas
doctrine, and I shall continue to preach
the sales tax until it is finally enacted
into our revenue laws. This cannot be
far distant"

Mr.. Baufour arose and an instant
Mr.. Balfour arose ana an instant
He began slowly, expressing hts
admiration for the manner in which
the American proposals had been pre-
pared and presented.
THE secret" he said, was most
admirably kept" and this was greet
ed with a laugh from the galleries,
in which the American delegation
joined.
II am the first to take up the
challenge" he continued" perhaps
because my country Is most In
mately interested in naval ques-
IONS"
America has added a new historical
tate to the worlds history, he SAID,
and November 12 would be date

Britain Most Interested.
Great Britain and the British EN-
pire," he continued, 'are more pro-
foundiy interested In this question

There never has been in the
worlds history an empire such as the

Mr.. Balfour spoke haltingly, dra

said, Imagine, If you will, what your
problem would be II your Western
States, for whose safety you are re-
sponsible, were removed ten Thousand
miles from your coast. There, In brief
you have an idea of our problem"
Balfour dwelt at great length on
Britain's isolation, her dependence
upon her overseas trade. He ad
vised his hearers to imagine the
heart of America. a small crowded
/ island" and then. he said, they
could appreciate Britain's position.
