G. O.. r. Leaders Concerned
JBy Evening News STAFF Correspondent
NEW BRUNSWICK, July 20
With the possibility of defeat staring
them in the face in the race for sur
rogate at the November election
with Surrogate Daniel w. Clayton
as an opponent the forces of the Re-
party are becoming very
much concerned as to whom they
will have as a candidate.
At the present time two well
known candidates are working for
the Republican nomination which
gives every indication of any exist
ing feeling that may lead into a
party split, and realizing the tremen-
dous vote getting powers of Mr..
Clayton should he enter the race
every effort is being made on the
part of the G.. o. p. leaders to put
their strongest candidate foremost.
While the logical man has not
been selected, present indications
point to the fact hat a regular and
heavy vote puller who would come
to the front at this time would re-
ceive the support of the county or
g%anization, which would make every
effort to have the two present can
didates withdraw from the race for
the sake of party harmony.
1t was expected that under Sheriff
Gowen of Highland Park
who polled such a heavy vote for
freebooter in the last general cleo
ton, would become a candidate as 1t
thought he was strong enough
to carry the party to victory. but he
has declined to run.
Clayton Still Silent
NEW BRUNSWICK. July 20
W.. Clayton. the present sur
rogate, when questioned this morn
ing in connection with his possible
candidacy for reelection. said that
he was not prepared to make a state
ment on the subject. He took the
stand that his mission was not as yet
since his term had not ex-
PRED and that he vas too busy pro-
batting wills and issuing letters of
administration to think about re-
election until his present term had
expired.
Assemblyman c. Raymond Lyons
and Mayor John ]. Morrison, both
of this city, are very busy at this
time in an effort to land the votes
that will insure the nomination.
While both men are known through
out the county, the feeling exists
that there are other men In the
county who are entitled to the nomi-
nation and would prove stronger
factors at the general election.
Despite the fact that Mr. Lyons
has announced himself, it is said
that for the sake of the party he
would withdraw in favor of a real
candidate, providing the
would do likewise. but unless
a reasonably sure winner comes for
ward the popular assemblyman will
in the fight till the finish.
Within the next few days Assem-
blyman Albert Appleby of Old
will start an active campaign
in his fight for the nomination as
state senator. Mr.. Appleby signi-
fed his intention of running the
early part of the year and will n
nounce his platform soon, which will
a dry platform.

BY HUNT

WASHINGTON, July 19.-Success
or failure of the disarmament con
ference in Washington this fall de-
ponds primarily on a satisfactory al.
justment of half a dozen Far East
Problems"
Only with these major issues amic-
ably adjusted, would the %irritants
that might ultimately lead to a clash
of arms be removed. And then only
could the nations involved agree to
a considerable reduction of arma-
ments-at least a cessation of build
ing new armaments-without feeling
that safety was being jeopardized.
These problems are:
/. Mandates under the League of
Nations particularly that of zap.
2. Shantung.
3d.. The Open Door in China.
4. The territorial integrity of
h China.
). The territorial integrity of Ash
attic Russia.
W 6. CO mmunications.
. Once an agreement on these Is
n reached, the matter of getting to-
gether on cutting down the size or
armies and navies will be easy. But
this first necessary agreement, Off
81 Cl1lS ulLS, WI NV w NpSS+
That. rather than any actual dis
armament compact. will be the big
step toward peace. if 1t is achieved.
u. S. Protest
Yap and Shantung, Japan has in
dicatcd. she holds to have been dis
posed of by the Treaty of Versailles.
The United States, however. on
The basis that she. as n of h
principal allied and associated pow
ers, ever though not a member OF
the League of Nations, was entitled
10 a voice in the distribution of the
former German islands in the Pa
ciic. has protested the granting of
special rights in zap to Japan. Be
cause of Yap's imoprtance as a Pa
citic cable center, this country has
insisted that it be internationalized
and equal rights assured to all.
With respect to Shantung, no OFF,
cial stand has been taken. although
many senator's have attacked the
bestowing upon Japan of the Ger
man rights in that peninsula.
The unbiased view, however, has
been that any dispute over sover-
eighty in Shantung should be the
matter of negotiation between China
and Japan.
There is indicated a considerable
desire in several quarters that the
Yap and Shantung questions be elm
mated in advance of the Washington
conference. That. it is recognized,
would greatly simplify questions be-
fore the conference. This govern
ment will not, however, concede hat
the Treaty of Versailles-in the alb
sence of any acquiesence by this
country-could dispose of zap. The
case has been stated so plainly that
Japan has no illusions as to the
basis on which u claims stand,
and the vigor with which they will
be presented.
China'S Stand
AS to Shantung, Japan has con-
tended that title to the former Ger
man rights in that province was
legally vested in her and cannot be
disturbed 30 long as the Versailles
Treaty remains international law.
China, on the other hand. contends
That her declaration of war against

BOX Social OstpOned

The box social which was to have
been held by the Amboy Harmony
Club tomorrow night. has been post
poned because of the fact that a
great many of the members of the
Glib will be at the club camp at Budd
Lake.
The camp will be maintained until
August 18th, and a majority of the
club members will take advantage of
1t for this time. The committee has
decided to hold the affair on Satur-
day, August 20. in Western Improve
ment Hall.

Way is Paved for Big World
Conference on Limitation
of Armament BY Nations

Germany restored to China all rights
previously granted Germany. That
being so, she claims, there were 10
German rights in China to be dis
.pOsed of at the Versailles conference.
| China refused to sign the treaty be-
] cause of the Shantung provision.
T., The pen door in China, and
China's territorial integrity are, of
course, old questions. They are the
ones in which the real craftsmanship
0 the members of the conference
may best be displayed. On them de-
ponds whether China is to become
an Independent nation. or whether
tho special interests which virtually
render China impotent and helpless
are to continue their hold. In this
is involved the abolition of all extra
territorial jurisdiction, the control
of maritime customs by the British,
the French control of the Chinese
%postofice and the L~ansing-Ishii
agreement recognizing Japan's "spe-
cial interests" in China. These are
infinite ramifcations.
The question of the territorial in
tegrity of ASiatic Russia will bring
10 the front Japan's occupation of
the Maritime Provinces of eastern
Siberia and of Sakalin Island, where
Japan is operating extensive fish
cries. japanese colonization in
ManChuria and her occupancy of
~Vladvostok are also involved.
Gable Problem
In the matter of communications,
the whole question of a friendly,
equitable relationship in the estab-
fishing n maintaining of wireless
and cable stations will be developed.
This will bring in the development
80 von ne -, a. 49, "a.
tributing center, and the interests
of The Netherlands, which now con-
troll important cable links in the
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-
way and the great Kai Ping mines.
Hollands whole life as a trading
nation depends upon her rich island
possessions in the Pacific-the Dutch
East Indies. This comprises a huge
territory with 50,000.000 population.
Without these colonies and a free
hand in developing their markets,
Holland would be reduced to the
status of a fifth-rate nation. Her in
terests r 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.
Important. but secondary to these
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 ~indepen-
dence at an early date would be
greatly increased.
