NEW YORK. April 12.-The text of
the speech made Wednesday in the
Australian parliament by. Premier
Hughes. in which he advocates re-
newal of the Anglo-Japanese treaty
, in a form agreeable to the United
States. was made public here by the
Australian high commissioner.
| Warning of naval rivalry on the Pa
| cific, Premier Hughes appealed for
IAN alliance-an understanding be-
| tween the two great branches of the
| IEnglish-speaking peoples" and de-
| clared- that renewal of the Anglo
Japanese treaty. modified if need be
should be sought at the British i'm
perial conference of dominion prime
! ministers in London in June.
| In his address. which was regarded
| as one of the frankest discussions of
| International relations on the Pa
cif1c ever carried on in the Australian
parliament. Premier Hughes dealt
with Japanese-American affairs.
He said, in part:
"The bearing of the japanese treaty
upon the naval defense of the en-
pire Is obvious. AS we have seen
lately. there has been much talk Of
strained relations between the United
States and Japan. Now. in that lie the
germs of great troubie-posSib bilities
Of infinite disaster to this world.
why U. s. Wants Big Navy.
What is the hope of the world?
AS see it. it is an alliance-an un-
derstahding between the two great
branches of the English-speaking
peoples: Now. here is our. dilemma.
Our safety lies in renewal of the
Anglo-Japanese treaty. yet that
treaty is anathema to Americans.
America has said that she must have
the greatest navy in the worid-that
she must have navy sufficiently
herself against Nnom? She-h left
the world in no doubt. or in very
little doubt, as to whom. We not
only have no quarrel with America,
we have no quarrel with Japan.
"one reason why Americans want
the strongest navy in the world is
that they have such a great coast
line to defend. But we have coast
line nearly three times as long as
that of America. They have over
one hundred millions Of people with
smaller in size and only Vulnerable
on the sea on two sides.
even when one comes to the al
Legged causes of disputes and of diff
ficulties between Japan and Amer
ica. those differences appear to be
dous evil which war would infiict
upon both nations;
Aims of Japanese.
What do the japanese want? They
want to hold land in America and the
right to enter the United States. Our
attitude is very much like that of the
people Of the western states of Amer
lea toward Japan.
1T is utterly wrong for the Japan
ese people to think that because we
have passed certain laws we regard
them as .our interiors. We admire
their bravery and their patriotism,
and we stand among those who are
loudest in admiration of their mag
nificent achievements. for no other
nation has advanced SO far in so short
time.
But, as I had the honor Of telling
Japanese representatives at the peace
conference, while we were friends
Of Japan, and while we considered
them the equals of ourselves. we do
not always invite our friends into our
house.

patriotic that they do not recognize
naturalization by any country as de-
nationalizing any Japanese. A Japan
eSe, no matter what he does. cannot
divest himself of his nationality.
These are the main grounds Of the
differences of opinion between the
Unite. States and Japan. 1t
is the bounden duty of Australia to
use every means at her disposal to
effect such modus vivendi as will
secure a renewal of Anglo-Japanese
treaty in a form agreeable to the
United states. Whether she Is
party to it or not is not so material
so long as she accepts it and does not
rsr;ard the renewal of it as being in
f.elf a hostile act by Great Britain
directed against herself. While maxi
ing every effort to retain the friend
ship of Japan. we cannot make an
enemy of the United States. Nor can
Britain do So"
