JAPAN RE- OPENS DISCUSSION
 LIN 4-PARTY PACT; SHANTUNG
 QUESTION STILL DEADLOCKED
Republican A. p. Leased WIreJ

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-The arms conference naval committee spent all of today debating proposals to re- strict submarine warfare against merchant craft, but got no further than a general understanding to re- affirm existing principles of interna- tional law and declare strict apph- cation to those principles in the fu- ture to submarine operations.
 A dispute over phraseology blocked formal adoption of an affirmatory resolution, and the subject was laid aside for consideration by a special sub committee on drafting. The naval committee itself then began what promises to be a prolonged de- bate over the American proposal to prohibit use of submarines against merchant vessels altogether.
 Meantime the b-committee on aircraft decided to abandon any ef- fort to limit the airplane strength of the powers and to recommend instead that an attempt be made to agree on restrictions that would make air war fare conform with considerations of humanity.
 Even such regulations. however, were said to be considered by sub committee members as difficult of l formulation.
 All the other naval and Far Eastern ! discussions before the conference re- mained at a standstill today except | for an inuimation from the Japanese | that only mediation by the United ! States and Great Britain could save | the Shantung negotiations from | deadlock. It was declared both for the Japanese and Chinese that their government had gone as far as pos l sible towards a compromise, and hope of settlement was seen only in the l possibility that some new clement could be injected into the conversa- tions.
 There were indications that the
 naval experts of the various powers
 were far from an agreement on the
 proposal that airplane carriers be limited. and all the foreign delega-
 tions were waiting on further in structions as to the American pro- posal to establish 10000 tons as the
 maximum size for any auxiliary war ships. There also was a halt on re-
 maining details of the capital ship agreement itself, a proposed meeting
 of experts to work out a replacement
 chart being postponed until later ir
 the week.
 Capital Ship Question Settled So far as the capital ship question is concerned, all delegations appear tc
 regard it as good as settled, although
 no draft of a treaty embodying the agreement has been prepared. | France has accepted, subject 10 . reservation she has not yet fully ex-

TRepubIIcan A. p. Leased Wirel

LONDON. Dec. 29.-It was official Iy stated today that the importation of disorderly clements into Calcutta Dec. g to enforce the 'Hartal' by terrorizing shopkeepers resulted in $50 arrests for obstruction and on other charges of disorderly conduct. Arrests in Calcutta for similar req sons the past six weeks have totaled $500, according to the statement It was also stated that there were no signs of the 'Hartar' on the 23rd throughout the greater part of the city and on subsequent days of the Prince of Wales visit the crowds were both enormous and enthusiastic, denoting the absolute failure of the non-co-operatio efforts to halt all festivities. It was added that as a result of this failure Mahatma Gandhi and his followers had been greatly discredited.

Hughes And Baifour May Try To Mediate
 Shontung Problems
TRepubIican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-Media- ton by Secretary Hughes and Arthur J. Balfour was suggested today as the only feasible way of settling the Shantung question which has entered the stage of deadlock through the intimation of Japanese representa- tives that Japan has gone as far as she can in the way of concessions.
 The direct conversations between the Chinese and Japanese delegates were broken off because efforts to agree on the manner of restoration of the Shantung railway had provtd futile. Apparently neither party sees it's way clear to ask for a resumption of the suspended conversations while both are putting forth the strength of public opinion in their homelands as legitimate Justification for the ip- possibility of further compromise.

Charles Francis Philbrook, who died in Bisbee yesterday, was recog- nized as one of the foremost edu- cators of the state.
 A native of Illinois, he was edu- cated in the public schools of that state and was graduated from the Illinois State Normal and the Uni versity of Illinois. His teaching ex- perience in a great degree was in Arizona. He first taught in Will Hams and later in Flagstaff, going to Bisbee in 1904 when the mining town had only one small school. He lived there continuously to the time of his death and developed with the growth of the mining center one of the finest school systems in the state, notable for it's up-to-date features and excellent organization.
