which Mr.. Hughes wishes for. The

Thornless roses are not known in
diplomacy. England and Japan have
an alliance. That was entered into
years ago when Japan wanted big
brother among the nations. England
wanted a little brother to keep an eye
on her concessions in China. and to
give her moral aid in keeping down
the Hindoos. Both profited immensely
from the transaction, England getting
perhaps more benefit. But conditions
have arisen which make the thorns
among the roses dangerous. And all
the sweet perfume of the alliance can
not prevent their prickings.
Most of the thorns are felt in the
growing American prejudice against
that alliance. 1t is felt in many cir
cles--not necessarily diplomatic--that
this alliance offers a dangerous mem
ance to the future peace of the United
States. II is true that the alliance
specifies that neither country will be
called upon to fight against a country
with which it has a general arbitra-
ton treaty. The United States has an
arbitration agreement with Great
Britain respecting certain matters

There IL much Misunderstanding
about the Chinese question. which is
now being considered simultaneously
with the limitation OF armaments. The
ca siest way TO comprehend all of the
! proposals and counter proposals which
rise from the Conference Committee

cold .blooded viewpoint OF Chinese

which those spokssmen take:
England and Japan entered into an
agreement. Then came the World
War. Japan kept her word like a gem

has great need OF Japan's friendship. II
would not be a Renteman's act TO
break that agreement. Japan was !,
gentleman. England must continue to
be. a gentleman. However, stress this
point; war with the United States is
unthinkable. The ties of blood. Ian

More Loans Planned
To Aid Grain Growers
War Finance Bonds to Provide

Be Offered Soon

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-Advanccs
of s15,ooo,ooo for agricultural pur-
poses, announced yesterday by the War
Finance Corporation, will be made
available to grain growers having
membership in the Equity Cooperative
Exchange, operating in Minnesota, and
North and South Dakota, officials said

The agreement. officials said. is the
first of an expected large number of
transactions with cooperative asso-
Citations in various parts of the coun-
try.
The corporation to-day announced
approval of applications for advances
totaling $4,150,0O0 to assist in fnanc-
ing exports of cotton and tobacco. With
applications for advances under the
corporations enlarged power for ex-
tending upwards of $1,o00,000, 900 for
agricultural and live stock credits com
ing in in great numbers, officials in
dicated that credits of considerable
sums would be arranged within the

probable that the first issue of War

the funds for carrying out the Con-
gressional authorization would be
Forthcoming in the near future.
