ment of the project to the house of
commons and of the governments up
prevail of it was greeted with pro-
longed cheering. A few days later
there was talk in London of a separate
conference there on Pacific matters
before the Washington meeting, be-
cause the premiers of Australia and
New Zealand said it would be impos-
sible for them to go home and return
to America almost Immediately. When
this suggestion reached Washington
the administration let it be known that
efforts to divert any part of the pro-
posed conference from the American
capital would not be acceptable.
1t was said Lloyd George and Lord
Curzon, foreign minister, would come
as the representatives of Great Brit
ain, and this stirred up an amusing
row over there. The Times declared
editorially that neither of those men
is fitted "by his position, his tempera-
Inent, and his past career to take di-
rect part in these negotiations.
The premier retorted with an order
that representatives of the Times, the
Daily Mail and the Evening News, all
controlled by Lord Northcliffe, should
be denied access to information given
out to the press generally at the for
cign office and by the prime minister's
secretaries at 10 Downing street. How
Lloyd George can justify such blow
at the liberty and independence Of the
| press remains to be seen. Perhaps
he will not try to do so.
| 1t is interesting to note that a com
mittee of the League of Nations met
In Luxembourg on Saturday, under
the presidency of M. Viviani, to con.
| slider disarmament. Officials of the
league at Geneva assert the league is
not yet considering abandoning its dis
armament plans because of the action
Of the United States. 1t will be still
more interesting to see what will hap
pen if both the league and the Wash
ington conference adopt different dis
armament projects.
