million dollars, to save England
and Japan, as well as the other al
lies, from being beaten and driven
from the seas and the markets OF
the world. And now the shape
their gratitude takes Ii a secret
diplomatic demand that we refuse
to these ships Of ours the favorable
legislation which will allow them to
compete on even terms with British
and Japanese merchant ships on
the seas and in the markets of the
world.
Are Modest Traders.
And just as they traded on Mr..
Wilson's childish obsession that his
league Of nations would bring about
a millennium Of peace, and so got
from him all his Americanisms-in
Guiding the freedom OF the seas
so these foreign diplomacies are now
trading upon the Administration
childish obsession that an agree
ment with England and Japan to
scrap a part of the navies and de-
clare a naval holiday will bring the
millennium which Mr.. Wilson's
league has failed to inaugurate.
They are modest traders, of
course. All they want is that

naval strength: submit the domin-
ion OF the seas and of her own
coasts to British and Japanese alli-
ance; deny the free use of the Pan
anna Canal to American ships, Grip
pie and finally destroy American
merchant marine competition on
the high seas and kindly forget to
ask for any of the billions loaned
to these noble protectors at the in
teresting period when Germany had
them shaking I'm their boots with
fear. and apprehension of defeat.
That is all they ask.
And so far, all that our great and
wonderful negotiators have yielded
Is the precedence Of the American
nation, the free use of the Panama
canal by American ships, the fatal
Gripping OF our naval preparedness
for defense, and the equally fatal
Gripping OF our merchant marine.
They have not yet agreed to
cancel the war loans made to the
allies, but this is really not neces-
sary IL the rest of the programme is
put through. Because whenever
matters reach the point in the near
future that America has no naval
power sufficiently strong to enforce
its rights. and no merchant marine
with which to carry It's own pro-
ducts to the worlds markets, these
foreign debtors will attend TO for
getting their debts without calling
on us for help in that direction.
The blunt truth is that we are be-
ing outwitted and cheated and
skinned here in this Conference,
precisely as we were at Paris, and
precisely as we always will be when
ever we thrust our America into the
intrigues and chicanery OF foreign
politics.
!. To look upon what is being done
here to our America is enough to
make a true American heart burn
with anger and shame.

Mrs Chambers said she arrived first

about her neck and drawn taut, and
she was dragged toward the swamp.
Just before she lapsed into uncon-

This evidently caused her assailant to

STARTED
To MAKE CHINA
ONE BIC STATE
Constitutional Convention Will
Be Called Soon to Act on
Confederation, Scheme.
By }. ID. BUSH.
International News Service.

The movement to transform China
into a confederation Of states, mod
eled after the United States Of
America. is making rapid progress,
according to Lone LANG, one of the
unofficial Chinese delegates watching
the progress Of the international con-
ference. Plans are already under
way for a Chinese constitutional con-
vention after the conference finishes.
Lone LANG is here as one of the
representatives OF the Chinese cham
unions, the students central union,
and the League OF Nations Society
in Great Britain.
When asked today what can be
done by the Chinese to unity all the
provinces and TO enjoy and exercise
these rights for the welfare OF the
republic, he replied:
1.-THE real political forces that
count in welding China into a unified
whole are the following: The united
chambers of commerce, which have
now sprung up over the whole coun-
try: the educational associations. the
bankers associations and the guilds
OF the artisans, thus constituting the
four strata OF Chinese society. These
four progressive elements have been
uniting their efforts for two years
in furthering the so-caIled autonomy
movement, which is nothing more
than concerted effort to weld
China into "a federal state.
THE patriotic leaders in China
have come to realization or the
fact that it is imperative to create
the states first before forming the
federated union.
This movement is spreading fast,
and will soon be developed FAR
enough for effective resistance
against the expressions Of the mill
tary tuchuns in the various provinces
and outside aggression.
After the conference 1t Is the
expressed intention OF the liberal
leaders to call an inter-provincial
TO establish a peoples as
sembly in Shanghai or in some other
strategic city. An effort will be
made to settle China's internal prob
lens for once and all. 1t Is pro-
posed that permanent constitution

put into force to Gust corrupt poll
ticials in both north China and
