For Prisoners Release

DUBLIN, Nov. 27 by The Associated
Press A big demonstration of women
workers organizations was held this
afternoon in protest against the treat
mcnt of political prisoners and to de-
mand their release. The long process
sion marched through the principal
streets of the city to Mountjoy Prison.
Later meeting was held in O'Conneil
Street where, owing to the congestion,
it was necessary for more than an hour
to divert tramway traffic.
The women's organizations sent n
message to the Washington conference,
requesting the conference to protest
against the torture OF Irish political
prisoners"
Monsignor Byrne, the new Catholic
Archbishop, to-day ordered that collec-
tions be taken in all the churches Of

TOXIC, Nov. 27 (By The Associated

appointed Regent of Japan, in address
ing a gathering before the Palace yes
day deplored the nirmities of the EN-
peror which had rendered necessary
the naming of Regent, and expressed
anxiety as to whether he would be able
to discharge the duties which had
fallen on his youthful shoulders.
tHirohito is twenty years old)
Hc had taken over the duties, he said,
in obedience to the rescript issued by
Emperor Yoshihito, and would en-
deavor to perform them Gin accordance
with the grand administrative prin-
ciples laid down by the late Emperor
Mutsuhito at the time of the Meiji res
toration." His aim, he added, would be
to further the friendships Of foreign
powers and to promote the national
welfare while awaiting the recovery Of
his fathers health.
Regent To Be Real Ruler
The general view here is that the ap-
poinment of Regent was timely and
natural development in view Of the En-
pcror's condition. AS Regent Prince
Hirohito will practically be the actual
ruler.
There is little doubt as to his popu-
larity, of which there have been many
evidences since his return from Eu-
rope. He has shown personal inter

Roots ''F0ur Points, to
Ciue China Fair Deal
Proposals Haze Become Basis
for Settlement Of Far East
PrObLenl: No Subferfuge

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27 (By The As
sociated Press 1.-The full significance
of the American "four points" pro
posed by Elihu Root and adopted by
the arms conference to guide its dis
cussions relating to China, is coming to
be better understood as the Far East
ern negotiations nass through the "ac-
cepted-in principle" stage and approach
decisions on specific subjects.
At first regarded as largely a reitera-
tion of general principles, which had
long been sanctioned on paper by all the
powers, the -four points" now have IN
tact become the foundation on which
Chlna's friends in the conference hone
to erect system of reforms that will
IN many respects reverse completely
the practices of the past and present.
In this farreaching development the
Anne erlcan delegation has taken the
leadership by making known in de-
clslve manner that it regards the Root
resolution as something vastly more
than few finely turned diplomatic
phrases. The American position is that
by accepting the -four points" the par
tlcipating nations have bound them
selves solemnly to apply in concrete
way the long professed principles of
fair dealing toward China, and to pro-
ceed without subterfuge to give China
as great degree of independence as
conditions will warrant.
Powerful support from outside the
American delegation has STRENGTHENED
that position, and in the present dis
cussions of tariff autonomy, extrater
ritoriality and postal rights, the trend
OF the negotiations never has been per-
mitted to stray far from the Root plat
form. In every case proposed solu-
tions have been scrutinized in the light
OF appropriate sections of the "four
points" with the result that the four
American principles have become in
TACT as we'll as in name the dominating
element of the discussions

Decision Would Be Final
Unnecessary, Says Japan
Peking Seeks Absolute Re-
turn of Province and Alb
rogation of FL Demands

WASHINGTON, Nov. 81 (By The AS
sociated Press) Will the celebrated
Shantung question, which has so stirret
public opinion in both the Occident and
Orient, find its way into the Washing.
ton conference?
This question occupies prominent
place in the thought and talk of the
delegates, although open references to
it are most guarded. In some quarters
n desire is shown to avoid it, if pos
sible, on the ground that the subject
is liable to revive old controversies and
interrupt the hitherto harmonious trend
of the conference.
The Chinese view is that the Shan
tung question occupies an important
place on the program they have drawn
up for submission to the conference
The japanese standpoint is that it is
quite unnecessary to discuss the Shan
tung matter, because Japan stands
ready to open direct negotiations with
China for the restoration of the leased
territory of Kiaochau, in Shantung
and the withdrawal of troops along

Borall Declares
Harding's Idea
League in Mufti
(continaed from page ons)

II SO, there is no reason fer asking
Europe to scrap the old league and try
new one. If we are going into Europe
we ought to go in. If we are not, we
ought not to be handing her new
league every ninety days. She will
likely conclude that after the next
Presidential election she would have
another league. see no difference
whatever in joining the present league
and Joining new league by another
name.
"The United States operates under a
written constitution. Great Britain
has no written constitution One Of
the arguments being put forth now in
favor of the association of nations is
that Mr.. Wilson made q mistake in
giving his plan written constitution
and that we should adopt the British
idea and undertake to conduct the
league or an association without any
written constitution or written COW
enart whatever. In other words, that
the new association will consist of rep
resentatives of different governments,
coming together with no limitation
upon their jurisdiction or power or
authority other than their own dis
cretion.
"a conclave of diplomats sitting be-
hlnd closed doors. with nothing to d-
rect or limit their powers save their
own will and discretion, would be a
rather interesting proposition. l am
inclined to think that il the American
people choose league they will choose
one which has its powers defined, or at
least an attempt to define them, rather
than trust their destiny to the un-
bridled discretion OF few men.
Alliance in Disguise
Lloyd George suggested some time
ago, according to the press dispatches.
that the Anglo-Japanese alliance be ex
tended to an Anglo-Ame rican- Japanese
alliance and that this alliance take
upon itself the duty of administering
China. Now, it is said that such an
alliance would be wholly Objectionable
tn the American people, but that under
an association of nations the same
thing could be effectuated and accom-
plished 1t is also being urged that
while the people of the United States
would not be willing to form an al
lance with France and Great Britain
to guaranty the security of France. the
same thing could be accomplished un-
der an association Of nations without
any constitution.
at is also urged that the interna-
tional debt could be more successfully
manipulated through the association.
All of which things simply disclose that
the association of nations is another
name for the league. with some addi-
tional and more extensive powers an

received from Toxic that the prospect
OF cessation of warship building in
Japan is causing serious disquietude
in labor circles and is giving the gov
ernment some anxiety as to how to
furnish employment to large number
of men who will lose this means of
earning living. The great shipbuild-
ing yards Of Japan are those of the
Kawasaki and the Mitsubishi com
panies. 1t is understood that some
$4,000 employees of these yards, most
OF which are located in the City of
Kobe, have decided to hold great
public meeting in Kobe on December /
TO consider the situation. The meet
ing has been called by the Joint labor
organizations of the country with the
idea of presenting to the capitalists
some practical project of finding new
certain to be discharged if a naval
agreement is reached. The home de-
partment has begun an investigation
IN all .prefectures of the country to
uetermlne measures to relieve the very
consideraoie unemployment which
would follow naval curtailment.
Inc naval question, at least so far as
lta most vital element, the ''five-five-
tnree' ratio of feet strength between
Great Britain, the United States and
Japan, is concerned is approaching the
point of transfer back to the "Big Five"
committee with the report of the naval
experts ON the facts involved. There is
some expectation that plenary session
OF the conference itself will be called
during the week to reach first decisions
on the naval limitation plan.
Decisions Of Experts Concealed
Whether the experts of the tbrse
major naval powers will submit in
divfdual reports is not known. There
10 nothing to indicate whether thew are
agreed as to the facts and figures thew
have been studying.
both the British and American ex-
perts were reported as having concluded
tneir examination OF the mass Of ship
data involved in Secretary Hughes's
proposal.
American naval opinion strongly on
poses retention by Japan Of the hat
tieship Mutsu unless both other powers
similarly and in due proportion en-
large their fleets to be retained during
the ten-year holiday in building. There
are indications that some members of
che American delegation which will de-
eide the American attitude see strength
In the arguments of Japan that the
Mutsu might have been included as a
completed ship in the retained fleets.
There was nothing to indicate, how
ever, that compromise was being con-
sidered in the American group on this
point.
British opinion as 60 the Mutsu con-
sroversy has been withheld. 1t has
been indicated, however, that Great
Britain was not desirous of undertak-
ing any further naval construction at
tnis time, which seems to forecast
agreement with the American view that
The Mutsu should not be retained.

element Of Mr. Hughes's limitation
