Washington, Nov. 25.-The Arms
Conference discussion of Far Eastern
questions shifted today to the possibil:-
ty OF abridging the system of extra
territorial rights" under which thu
powers maintain their own judicial
agencies in China for the trial of cases
in which their respective nationals
are involved.
China wants the extra territorial
privilege abolished altogether, although
her delegates have Indicated doubt
whether the present judicial machin-
cry Of the Chinese government would
make II possible to withdraw the for
eign tribunals Immediately. All the
other nations concerned have cx.
pressed hope that something can te
done toward modifying the present
system. but have evidenced in The
main a feeling that nothing of a very
sw eping character in. that direction
Is warranted just now.
The session OF the nine delegations
sitting as a committee of the whole
10 discuss the extra territoriality pro-
Diem was the only meeting of the con-
ference or its subdivisions on todav's
program, the questions of land and
naval armament having again gone
into temporary eclipse while experts
prepare their opinions as to details. II
was thought by some of the delegates
that the committee deliberations might
also reach the subject of leases during
the day, bringing into the discussions
the troublesome questions of Shantune
and Manchuria.
Meantime the clash of opinion be-
tween the Chinese and some OF the
British spokesmen over the meaning
OF the four Root principles continued
subject Of speculation in converse
tions among individual delegates. The
question OF interpreting the Root prin-
clples has not yet come directly before
the sessions of the conference, how
ever and may not be raised formally
until the discussions reach a point re.
quiring application of the principles
to specific cases.

sociation at the Hotel Imperial from
January to 81, which dates have been

CANADA APPEALS TO
PACKARD OFFICIAL

Any one contemplating a motor trip
should not overlook Canada. says Lee ].
Eastman, president OF the Packard Mo-
tor Car Company OF New York. He
says:
During the season OF 1920 it was
my good fortune to take an extensive
motor trip through the Province OF QUE
bee, which proved very enjoyable. 50
much SO, in fact. that feel my fellow
motorists should know something about
it in order that they may take advan-
tage of the wonderful scenery, fine roads
and splendid hospitality which it af-
fords
The run from Rouses Point to Mon
treal on the King Edward Highway Is
over a fine stretch OF asphalt and con-
crete road. Motorists will be impressed
as we were with the quaint old time
road houses and also the many new
American similar establishments. all
taking full advantage OF American pro-
hibition. judging from the many cars
bearing United States liceuses parked
In front. The Americans seem to fully
appreciate the opportunity to indulge In
personal liberties at reasonable cost and
without feeling that they are violators
of the law.
THE run from Montreal to Quebec,
covering a distance OF 1S2 miles, af-
fords one Of the finest strips OF road with
wonderful scenery, and you will again
be very much impressed with the way
side shrines. the quaint city of Three
Rivers and the very magnificent
churches, as we'll as the wonderful views
of the majestic st. Lawrence.
Quebec furnishes an opportunity to
refresh your memory on many historical
events connected with American history
and also gives you an opportunity to
brush UP on your French. One of the
very interesting features Of our trip
were the more or less successful at
tempts that my two sons made to con-
verse in French with the natives.
Taken all in all, this is one of the
most wonderful trips on this continent
and can without hesitancy recommend
1t In every way"
