20 a similar question az the last in

with all my heart. ! 90 not say that
with the thought Of arrogating 20
the United States OF America any
greater part Of the contribution

me that in 1921 as We have come TO
know more fully the aftermath Of
the war as we have come 10 ap-
praise tho unspeakabIe cost of IL all,
there is a new conviction in the
hearts Of men that that sort Of APP

of our position and unworthy of the

they find the way TO come TO an
agreement. And. after all, there has
never been a conflict in the world
that has not been settled in the end
in that way. You have a war; you
destroy thousands of millions Of
men and measureless treasure, and
settle it, I have a feeling that man
kind has become wise enough to sit
down before the war and try TO set
tie it. And that is the object Of the
four party treaty. That Is why 1
say the small lack OF agreement in
constituting it is not significant.
Why If there was a menace Of
peace in Japan what objection could
there be for the United States to sit
down with her friend in the orient,
and with the other great powers,
and discuss how the matter could
be adjusted If someone had done
that when Austria was threatening
Serbia there would have been no Eu-
ropean war The whole purpose of
this conference is to provide some
means where just. thoughtful, right
eous peoples. who are not seeking 10

this present day civilization cannot
take advantage OF this new realiza-

zation Of the future. But there is a
new spirit seeking and impelling
peace. and it must add TO our
Christmas happiness

not intended to "misrepresent Ad-
miraI Deb0n." but had attempted to
show that if the submarine was TO
play "the great role in future wars
which Admiral Debon had suggested
in his speech il could only do so by
resort to extreme methods. for il was
futile 10 suppose that submarines
would make a practice Of stopping
merchant ships and placing prize
crews on board 70 take them into
port"
Effectiveness Of Sub
AS 10 the usefulness of subma-
rines against warcraft, Admiral De-
bon recalled that France lost three
battleships. five cruisers and had
several other ships torpedoed during
the war, losing 100, 600 tons in fight
ing craft in all from submarine at
tack. He said that italy and Great
Britain had also lost battle craft in
the same way and that, in addition,
all three nations were compelled 10
erect defensive systems against u
boats, which certainly was an influ-
ence toward weakening the general
forces OF the nations engaged.
The admiral argued that Germany
had maintained her entire coast In
tact" because her submarine force
had made approach TO the mine field
projections really dangerous" while
in the Adriatic submarines also
formed one Of the most powerful
means of action for the enemy"
. Bombardment of Turkish fortifica-
tions at the Dardanelles, he added.
had been "hampered" by enemy
submarines and paid for their eff
forts with the loss of several ships"
BalrOur Answers.
In answer Mr. Balfour said he
wished the American advisory com
mittee could have heard the speech
. of the gallant admiral who has just
sat down. before drawing up its
report
IF they are once let loose O, deal
with merchantmen" Mr.. BalfOur
I said. lit is also incredible that in the
/ stress OF war their powers will not
Y be abused i'm the future as they
/ have been 50 grossly abused in the
past"
II DO not IN the least nor unduly
minimize the utility Of submarines
/ for genuine war purposes" Mr.. Bal
four said, "but j cannot help think
/ ing that Admiral Debon has exag-
/ Eerated il. can assure him that he
. is in error in surprising that the inn
| munitv from attack enjoyed by the
