The Powers here the plea OF that Govern

There can be no development OF the

vents the utilization of our natural re-
sources. The very name OF the republic

weeks, and that in the meantime the
Manchurlan question Will he allowed to

The Chinese delegates are not to be
moved from their intention OF taking UP
one question at a time. They ere not
disposed to press a decision relative 10
Shantung, but neither viii they be hur-
rled into a discussion OF Manchuria be-
fore the Shantung Issue is disposed OF.
In other words, they do not propose TO

Ing done In the Liaotung Peninsula.
No Long Leases Wanted.
Relative to the Manchurian question,
tho Chinese delegates are in direct op-
position TO the seeming position Of
Japan. They are willing TO make what
they regard as proper concessions. They
are willing to recognize Japan's vested
interests in that section, based on her
rights acquired through the Russian
treaty negotiated at Portsmouth. She
will recognize the Japanese leases as
they now exist, but will be opposed un-
alteyably to extending these leases for
another 100 years. ANY such extension
OF leases, the Chinese believe. would be
equivalent to annexation by japan.

Japanese alertness IS illustrated by
this story: They say that when the rep

people the official CONCERNED, after
glancing over tho extremely brief sched-
nle. remarked: 81 see you do rot In

WATCHING JAPANS MOVES, SAYS LONDON TIMES EDITOR

this view apparently was recognized
later by Admiral Baron Kato in present
ing the argument to Secretary Hughes
and Arthur j. Balfour that Japan
needed 20 per cent for national security.
Close Scrutiny by Japanese.
The close scrutiny given by Japanese
naval officials TO all American navy pub
lications was brought out in the course
OF the experts discussions over the
percentage OF completion OF ships under
construction. The list supplied by the
Americans showed the battleship Colo
rado SS per cent. finished on November
IL. only 10 per cent. behind the japanese
Mutsu.
The japanese then produced percent
ages Of completion for American ships
as shown In routine progress reports
issued by the Naval Bureau OF Con-
struction and Repair each month. These
showed the Colorado 50 per cent. fin
ished on October 81 The japanese
asked an explanation of tho apparent
discrepancy. They were told that the
bureau dealt only with the hull of the
ship and material ordered for the hull,
while the SS per cent. figure given by the
experts as of November II included work
done on the guns. engines and other
cqulpmeul, prOuuctiOn or Wnlcn IallS TO
the Bureau Of Engineering or the Bureau
of Ordnance.
Another point OF discussion was the
different method of figuring ships nor
NAL displacement. which Is the tonnage
figure compiled for purposes OF calcula-
ton OF naval relativities under the
American plan. II was explained that
tho standard practice Of the American
Navy wcs to take the deadweight OF
the ship, obtained by calculation OF the
weight OF every beam, plate or rivet
used in her construction and checked
at the ships side by actual Weighing or
each part as II is placed in the ship.
To this is added the full weight or
the ammunition carried by the ship
and two-thirds of the weight of her full
capacity OF "consumable stores" which
includes fuel and food and other sup
plies that are used UP. The resulting
figure is given In al navy calculations
as the ships normal displacement and
Il also is the load she must carry on
her speed trials.
British and Japanese naval practice
Is not the same as this. In their case

It is not improbable that Congress
sional criticism will also be levelled at
the methods OF procedure adopted by
the conference despite the fact the
American delegation has frankly COM
mun;catsd TO the public every impor-
tant development, aside from those Of
technical character or incident TO
committee work, such as carried on
in Congress and which would prob
ably be of no interest to the public in
any event. American delegates say
that they will answer fully any com
plants emanating from Congressional
sources on this score.
The tardiness of the Toxic Govern
Tnent in indicating its acceptance or
the Hughes formula Is not so disturb
ing to American officials and delegates
representing other governments as 1t
is to the japanese who are here in at
tendance at the conference. There can
be no question that the Washington
conference has provoked situation in
Japan which is approaching crisis,
and is likely to result in the dissolu-
ton of the Diet, the holding of new
elections and perhaps the inauguration
OF q new order of things.
The recent assassination Of Premier
Hara clearly reflected political dis

Very strilSingly The conference DEM
onstrates the power OF advertising,
Peace, for example. Every day millions
of words about the world aspiration for
peace are springing from bsuy brains
ut work in this great factory of ideas.
Obviously they expand and strengthen
the aspiration that called the conference
into being. Thoughtful men, Lord Rid
dell. for example. say that the confer
ence will have d,lne majestic thing
even If it should acco nplish little more
than the stimulation Cf the peace idea
the world over.
Talk about an idea or an ideal, write
about II long enough. earnestly enough
and human minds infallibly trend to-
ward tolerant consideration. II there
is any secret about advertising there
you have It. Lord Riddell believes that
peace needs TO be advertised. that by
advertising the dignity and glory Of
peace it can eventually be revealed to the
perverse and intolerant. He offers the
interesting suggestion that we are see
ing the beginning OF q tremendous peace
advertising campaign which will In time
root out old, evil ideas about the dignity
and glory Of war.

twas the first person of Importance to
realize the power OF advertising. In

Generals Of Rome TO go out and do
things and then send bulletins home to

this method but improved upon it. Hav-

It Is amusing to and that the Govern
mont OF the United States, spending mil

great pains and effort TO keep its guests
