ADVISES ABANDONMENT
OF CHEMICAL WARFARE
Report by Pershing Said to
Disagree With Other VieUs.

WASHINGTON, Dec. (Associated
Press) Complete abandonment Of all
forms of chemical warfare Is understood
to have been recommended to the Amert-
can Arms Conference delegation by its
official advisory committee.
The advisory committee report was
drawn by Gen. Pershlng and there is
some intimation that = does not reflect
views of all other high army officials.
In general, army officers are inclined to
believe that poison gas or any other
form of chemical warfare should be
treated as any other military weapon
should be treated. {
American army policy under President
Wilson prescribed gas warfare after the
armistice was signed. 1t was formally
stated that the American army would
not develop gas for offensive use. but
would confine itself 70 thorough study
of chemical warfare in preparation for
adequate defence against any enemy who
might resort to its use.
The general theory CT this policy 1t
has been understood, was that II was i'm
possible to confine gas attack to purely
military zones of operations; that the
fumes were driven by the wind from the
battle front over great distances at times
and found civilians victims in towns far
back from the fighting line.
The army itself can he protected with
masks and other devices, but civil popu-
lations have and will have neither the
protective equipment, nor the necessary
trainng in it's use. Officers have felt.
The New York herald., 1921-12-09

Chinese friends not to press the commit
tee to adopt the resolution under discus
sion. but 10 deal with particular evils, as
the conference was doing.
Mr.. Hughes was sure that all under
stood the deep concern which had
prompted the proposal OF the Chinese
delegation, and that there was general
sympathy with China In her desire that
there should be no engagements of any
character interfering with the establish
ment OF a sound, stable and efficient gov
ernmant In China but note must be taken
of actual conditions.
The committee had agreed in the src-
ond paragraph OF the Root resolution,
he said, TO provide the fullest and most
unembarrassed opportunity to Cniaa to
develco and maintain for herself an ef-
fectivc and stable government: that was
not only pledge but, he believed. a rec
ognition os the fundamental fact that
China alone could develop and maintain
an effective and stable government But
there most be patience development in
China in an age long process.
The chairman then observed that there
might be treaties affecting China not
adverse to China, but 1t could be said
that there would be no secret er.%-e-
ments. more than that could be dore,
however there could be recorded an
expression of a desire TO be helpful, 20
China in the preservation OF the lag!ii-
mate field of her administrative auton-
omy and a reassertion in connection
with paragraph No. l of the Root rcso-
luton of the determination to do nothing
in derogation of the sovereignty. inde-
pendence and territorial and administra-
tive integrity of China.
Therefore, he continued. II there were
embodied in the resolution relating to
treaties principles underlying the Chi
nese proposal and an expression of the
intention 10 do nothing in derogation
Of these principles and to make no
treaties or engagements in derogation
OF the sovereignty and administrative IN
l.tegrity OF China all that China desired
would be attained without the commit
tee being led into a discussion of the
theoretical freedom of the treaty making
power. He suggested that the Chinese
delegation advanc some qualification of
their proposal which would permit the
matter to be discussed In that sense.
Mr.. Hanihara said he only desired
to make the point of view OF the Japa-
Iese delegation clear. The japanese
delegation believed that the sovereign
nations had the right of concluding an
treaty or agreement between themselves.
At the same time with the growing
influence Of public opinion and of inter
national law it was daily becoming
evident that should a treaty or agree
ment prove prejudicial to the peace o.
the world or violative of the rights of
third Powers II was bound to fall by
itself under strong pressure of popular
condemnation If not an account of ac-
tion taken against it by aggrieved par
ties. either through direct diplomatic
representation or through the instru-
mentality of the LEAGUE of Nations. of
which China was a member. But an
engagement by the Powers under the
formula now proposed by China would
operate as a serious limitation upon
their sovereign right and in the opinion
of the Japanese delee alton 1t was neither
necessary nor desirable"

New York Hernld Bureau,
Washington, ID. c., Dec. y.


Senator Borah issued statement to-
day in which he says that most of the
woes of Europe, including the financial
distress, are due to the operation of the
Versailles treaty.
He proposed that the treaty be re-
written, and argues that unless such a
course is adopted it would be waste
of time and money for the United States
to try to save Europe. and that con-
ditions there will go from bad to worse.
The Senator denounces in vigorous
language the campaign to have the al
lied debt to this nation cancelled, point
ing out that such a course would not
aid matters much unless present policies
there are changed considerably. He Is
convinced that the policies OF France
and Great Britain now in operation will
destroy Germany. and in doing so the
whole of Europe will be destroyed.
He urges that Great Britain, Japan.
France and Germany should hold a con-
ference and rewrte the treaty of Ver-
sailles. so that Europe may live. He said
In part:
Next to disarmament, the most es-
sential thing for the bringing on of
peace and for the restoring Of economic
sanity is the modification of the Yer
saillas treaty. Unless that can be done
the United States will waste time and
money in any effort to restore conditions
to normalcy in Europe. Europe will go
on from bad to worse. as IT has been
doing since the armstice. and thousands
will die and wars will continue. Every
body seems to know this. every econo-
mist in Europe declares it and almost
every one who visits Europe and returns
to the United States admits 1t.

you can destroy Germany without de-

Of the continent without destroying the

THE first step toward order Is 10 con-

the Racing Commission and the
Maryland Jockey Club through the
decision of the latter to accept stake

threatening to tear loose the founda-

they still feel that a certain amount
of harm was done.
incidentally, the report was revived
yesterday at Bowie that all is not
well between Bedwell and Ross and
a split between the two at any time
would occasion no surprise. The
Canadian multimilIionaire, however,

Central High School and Western

afternoon in the Central High School
stadium in what promises to be the

formed creditably in all contests this
season. They have a goodly share OF
wins against all local teams and have
been priming for the contest,
Western is expecting to present a
fairly seasoned team. While the
Westerners possessed practically all
of last years nine the players have
been unable to report for regular
