A SCHEME THAT FAILED,

1t seems that the British and Japanese govern
the Harding administration when a preliminary
conference Of the three powers proposed to dis
cuss in secret problems Of the Pacific thu shall prop
erly come before the International gathering our
president will invite to Washington this fall Well
they found 1t 100 per cent.
AS we are informed now the British and Japanese
knew were hopeless to suggest ripartite alliance
by treaty, the United States becoming the third
member, in succession to the Ango-Japanese alliance
but they did think some larger arrangement" might
be entered into which would serve their purpose
President Harding and Secretary Hughes were not to
be caught by such bait. The conference on limitation
OF ornaments and the Pacific questions is not design
ed by America, to be productive of private arrange
ments for selfish ends of a few mighty powers What
this nation desires is adjustment of all military a-
ances and the ordering of international relations on
plane Of justice with all countries sharing in the
benefits.
President Harding is looking ahead If the Wash
common rights in the Far East, having due regard
to the inexnguishable rights of the several peoples
Of that section Of the world, noteworthy step will
have been taken toward realization of more Just
dtions all around the globeS If the approachin
conference should yield the results of which It is
capable we should be within measurable distance
OF that association of nations formed for the pro-
motion of peace basis of Justice which President
Harding is pledged to strive to bring into being
