ORANGES conception Of her needs
Il in the way of defensive navy
and the firmneSS with which her dele
gates upheld, their position brought
about complete deadlock In the
Washington conference last week and
made it almost certain that no agree
ment will be reached by the present
gathering concerning the reduction
and limitation of submarines and aux
iliary naval tonnage. The other pow
ers participating in the conference
were willing to concede the fairness
Of the French position concerning the
reduction of her land armament, but
they feel that in this naval matter
France is demanding too much.
Albert Sarraut, having received
fresh instructions from Paris, told
the naval committee that France, ac-
cepted the allowance of 175,OOO tons
Of capital ships, contingent upon per-
mission to begin replacement building
In 1927 instead of 1881. hut insisted
that she be allowed 10000 tons of
submerSibles and 100000 tons OF allX-
iliary ships. The submarine tonnage
he asked Is equal to the maximum
proposed by Mr.. Hughes for Great
Britain and the United States and
three times what France now has.
Mr.. Balfour. in language as plain
as diplomatic usage permits, retorted
that France could want such subma-
rine fleet for no other purpose than
illegal use against commerce. that the
plan was direct threat against
Great Britain. and that in the circum-
stances the British would agree to no
limitation in the building of cruisers,
destroyers and other antl-submarine
vessels. To NJ. Sarraut's assertion
that British fears of French aggres-
sion were baseless since Britain was
allowed n capital ship tonnage greater
than that of France and Italy COM
bined, Mr.. BalfOur replied that, in the
event of war between Great Britain
and France, England. having no large
army. could not strike at the heart Of
France, but France. employing a great
navy Of submarines against commerce.
could destroy the "very existence" OF
Britain. To the layman 1t would seem
that Mr.. Balfour had the best Of the
debate. but NJ. Sarraut was unyield-
Ing. Therefore Mr.. Hughes, deplorlng
the attitude Of the French. an
nounced with regret that an agree
ment on the reduction and limitation
Of submarine and auxiliary tonnage
appeared impossible.

DAIL EIREANN during its recess
II has been hearing from many Sim
FCin clubs and other organizations Of
southern Ireland, and in every in
stance, so far as known. has been
urged to ratify the Irish peace treaty.
Investigators report that fully 80 per
cent of the people I'm the island-ex-
cepting Ulster-are in favor Of ac-
cepting the pact. The English press
is confident it will be ratified, and the
British authorities at Whitehall are
buslly working out the details Of plans
for the immediate handing over Of the
government Of the island to the new
Irish provisional government.
Just to prod those members Of the
Dali who still oppose the treaty, Pre-
mier Lloyd George last week issued a
statement to the effect that the Brit
ish government had gone to the ut
most limit. and that not only the re-
lection of the treaty, hut even its

CONSIDERABLE progress was made
~ in settling the Chinese puzzles.
Mr.. UnderwooGs compromise plan for
the Chinese tariff was accepted by all
the powers. This provides for an i'm
mediate increase in tSriff of 5 per
cent ad valorem, a future increase to
~ per cent, and an increase to 12h
per cent when the provincial tariff Is
abolished. 1t may be three or five
years before the increase to 7h per
cent goes into effect, since Japan and
India require time to adjust their in
dustries.
Apparently the deadlock between
China and Japan concerning Shantung
was complete. and 1t was said there
would be American and British offers
Of mediation this week. But from
Tokyo came the assertion by "hlgh
officials" that Japan had gained her
main point and the whole dispute
probably would be settled soon. When
China agreed to negotiate with Japan
for the purchase Of the railway, 1t
was asserted, she acknowledged ia
pans right in the road won from
Germany. China's offer of treasury
notes in payment for the railway does
not suit Tokyo as China has been I'M
able to pay similar notes outstanding.
Japan wants payment by bond is
sue, which would prolong her control
of the railway until cash for the
bonds could be gathered by the Chi
neSe.
