CARDINAL eIBBoNs.

For long period ofNyears Cardinal
Gibbons has held an influential position
in the Catholic church. He was picked
as a comparatively young man for car
dinal because of his qualifications. He
had received training that might be exv
pected 10 lead to such recognition but his
advancement each time was due to his
special fitness and his achievements have
borne out the iuSsznent at the time Of
rs selection. As he was advanced in po-
sition and as his responsibilities In
creased he responded to the requirements
in full measure, becoming the leader that
he was picked for and that he was 'ex-
pected to be, but always with that same
kindness Of manner and consideration
that had characterized him in minor sta
tions. 1t is not surprising that a man
of his type should have proved such a
successful administrator, or that he
should be held in such esteem by all

New-York tribune., 1921-11-20

AS to the eighteen provinces, with
the possibility Of some exception in
the matter of Shantung, l believe we
shall see the United States, Britain and
japan, which are most concerned, able
to reach an agreement which will in
clude the reaffirmation of the princi-
pies of the integrity of China and the
open door. Shantung will raise diff
culties and precipitate debates. It may
be that Japan will be able to maintain
there claim to special privileges so far
as the railway is concerned
AT all events, aside from the prob
lens presented by the .Shantung Rail-
road and certain mines, it seems to me
not only entirely possible, but quite
likely, that the United States, Great
Britain and Japan may be able to find
some practicable formula which will
contain mutual recognition of equal
rights of all concerned.
Against that, it seems to me. Janan
may expect to receive from the United
States and Great Britain definite rec
ognition Of special interests in the
Manchurian area which will constitute
economic control and In practice lead
to political supremacy.
Since the problem Of Siberia is one
over which there is an unmistakable
division Of opinion in Japan itself,
there is no prospect that Japan will
show herself insistent upon special
privileges. I am impressed by the fact
that on the military side Japanese
soldiers hesitate to commit their coun-
try to policy which would invite in
evitable conflict with a resuscitated
Russia, while the whole Japanese com
merical world perceives that the So
called Pacific penetration of eastern
Siberia has been accompanied by a de-
New-York tribune., 1921-11-20

crease in Japanese trade and a costly
expansion in anti-Japanese feeling.
Translation of Vague Terms
Would Remove Suspicion
Now, beyond these rather meager
specific details there is inevitably one
major gain which of itself would give
enduring value to the work of the
Washington conference. We are deal
ing with dynamite. No one can mis-
take that. In the Far East collision
between the United States and Japan
has seemed not only possible but, at
least to the European observers, in
creasingly probable. Japan has viewed
the course Of the present Administra-
tion in calling the Washington con-
ference with suspicion, apprehension
and good deal of more or less re-
strained hostility. To the Japanese
mind the United States seems to be
undertaking policy designed to re-
strict the Japanese future, and this
has been the more true because the
United States policy has been dis
guised by such vague terms as "The
Open Door" and "The Integrity of
China" A translation rather than a
definition of these terms, together with
recognition on the part Of the United
States of Japanese freedom of action
in those areas which have specified,
it seems to me, would do much to re-
move this suspicion and apprehension.
In the last analysis, it is not the
limitation Of armaments-it is the re-
moval Of mutual suspicion--which will
contribute to make peace. And if the
United States and Japan can adjust or
reconcile their views in the Pacific
the greatest present peril to world
peace will be eliminated.
New-York tribune., 1921-11-20

pened, that the Washington conferenc.
viii make progress, great and almos
undreamed-of progress in the direction
Of the limitation of naval ornaments
what then is the second promise?
Obviously we must deal with the Fa,
Eastern question. Limitation of arm
aments will reduce taxation, improve
local and domestic conditions; it viii
tend to prevent unrest at home, but il
will not and can not prevent war. Yet i
is we'll to perceive at once that ques
tion so complicated and involved as the
Far Eastern cannot be solved at single
world conference. We are not goins
to solve the problem and we shall prob
ably settle only few of its many dan.
gerous interrogations. Perhaps the
greatest gain that might be made here
would be the creation Of that kind o1
spirit which would aid nightly in solu
tions in the future and at other confer.
ences, for~there must be other confer
ences, perhaps one at Toxic to continue
what was begun in Washington.
Much Depends Upon Manner
Far East Case Is Presented
Now, in the Far Eastern discussion
which must come all will depend upor
tn manner in which the American case
is presented and the degree to which
We are disclosed as seeking adjust
ment, not striving to impose abstrac,
principles. And my judgment is that
the first real step will be the fxatior
on the map of that unit which will
benceforth be called China for the pur.
poses of international agreement. This
China will, believe, include the eigh.
teen provinces, but recognize para
mount economic and perhaps political
privileges to Japan in Manchuria.

already foreseen by the British; it
may even turn out that British
declaration in the matter of the Philip-
pines will supplement their previous
announcement of purpose to estab-
lish q naval base at Singapore. This
declaration would, in all probability,
take the form of proclamation of a
British Far Eastern policy which weuld
commit British seapower to the main
tenance of the status quo in the South
Pacific, not as detail in an Anglo
American partnership but as a cir
cumstance in British policy.
For obvious reasons Australia and
New Zealand would view with uncon-
cealed apprehension any Japanese ad-
vance southwark, such as the seizure
of the Philippines would involve. For
the British government to declare that
the maintenance of. the Philippines
under their present sovereignty would
be portion of British Far East policy
would not only have profound effect
upon Japanese plans, but would go far
to meet the apprehensions Of our own
naval authorities. Reduction Of Amer
ican sea strength while the defense
of the indefensible Philippines is one
of the duties of our navy must arouse
much professional opposition.
Looking at the disarmament ques-
ton from the broader aspect once
more, it is plain why there is the
soundest of reasons for giving it the
first place. And this reason is found
in the fact that the statesmen of the
world will in this field have only to
preach to the converted. The domestic
situation, social as we'll as financial, of
the three great powers really CON
cerned-namely, Britain, Japan and the
United States-is such that popular
