favored ratification, and they felt
equally, certain that if the question
were referred to a plebiscite, as De
Valera might ask, a large majority
OF the people of southern Ireland
would vote for acceptance of the
peace terms.
The opposition in the British parlia-
ment was voiced in the house of lords
by Lord Edward Carson and in the
commons by Capt. Charles Craig,
brother of the Ulster premier. Al
ready the Ulster cabinet had sent word
to London that Ulster would not enter
the Irish Free State, and it protested
bitterly against the making of an r.
ish agreement without it's consent.
1t charged that the treaty violates the
word of King George and Premier
Lloyd George. In the Ulster note eX-
ception was taken also to the boun-
Diary commission plan, it being cor
tended that to remove territory frOn
any government without that govern
ment's consent is without precedent.
Over here in America a lot of the
professional Irish, like Justice Cohalan
of New York, are wildly denouncing
the treaty. Just what they want US
to do about it-whether to weep, or to
declare war against England-they
have not yet stated.

ID 9TH the British parliament and the
u Dali Eireann, the peasant parlia-
ment" of Ireland, met last week to
receive the reports of the peace dele
gates and to act On the treaty they
drew up. The British lawmakers were
urged both by the Ting and Premier
Lloyd George to ratify the treaty and,
despite the opposition of a few "die-
hards," there was no doubt that they
would do so.
In Dublin the agreement was not
having quite so smooth a path. From
the outset De Valera made plain his
opposition, if not to the whole treaty,
at least to certain of its provisions,
and he accused the Irish delegates
Of exceeding their powers in signing
it before submitting it to the dali
cabinet. Collins and Griffith, leaders
Of the treaty supporters, vigorously
upheld their action and the debate be-
came so warm that the dali went into
secret session to settle that point,
with the understanding that the debate
on the acceptance of the treaty should
be public. Observers were confident
that a majority of the dali members

CHINA PROBLEM is HARDER
Irish Pact Before British Parliament
War Between Chile and
Peru Threatend over
Tacna-Arica.
BY EDWARD w. PIcKARD

CTEADILY and sanely the Washing
- ton conference is performing the
great task which President Harding
set for it. Such was the progress
made last week that it seemed likely
the major problems would be solved
before the holidays and that the con-
ference would adjourn, leaving details
to be settled by experts and certain of
the questions to be handled by future
conferences.
The way was cleared effectively by
the q%uadruple agreement for stabiliza-
ton of peace in the Pacific. This, in
the form of a treaty, was signed on
Tuesday by the delegates of the four
powers and now awaits formal ratifi-
cation by the legislative bodies OF
those nations. That 1t will be ratified
In Great Britain, France and Japan is
beyond doubt, and there are few who
think that the American senate will
not also accept it. Senator Borah of
course has announced his opposition
to the treaty, and Senators Reed and
LaFollette stand with him. They pro-
fess to find in It's second article COM
mitments similar to those in Article
10 Of the League of Nations covenant,
and even worse than the latter. So
far no one else worth mentioning has
discovered the terrible danger in Ar
ticle 2. Those who approve of the
treaty-and they appear to be decid-
edly in the majority both in the SEN
ate and in the country generally
agree with Premier Takahashi of
Japan, who says the pact is "the
grandest contribution to the cause of
peace ever recorded in history"
There were rumors in Washington
that former President Wilson was adj
yising the Democratic senators to
fight the treaty, but more reliable re-
ports were to the effect that he had
urged them not to commit themselves
until the conference had completed its
work and the pact could be studied
In its relations to the other agreements
reached. OF course Senator Under
wood, the Democratic leader in the
senate, cannot oppose the treaty for
he signed it as one of the delegates.
When President Harding will send it
In for ratification is not known. 1t
may not be until after the holiday
recess.

D RITISH and French statesmen and
~ financiers have not yet been able
to come to anything like agreement
concerning the German Preparations,
and from both countries come unofti-
cial but insistent calls to America
to take part in the discussions. The
hope is expressed daily that President
Harding will call another conference
to handle this problem and that of
world finances generally. Meantime
the senate finance committee is fuss
ing with the administrations foreign
loan r%efunding bill and trying to do
things to it which Secretary of the
Treasury Mellon does not like. He
especially objected to a proposed pro-
vision requiring foreign nations to
make payments of interest on their
Indebtedness to TIE United States
semi-annually. He said this would
seriously handicap negotiations for re-
funding the loans.
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1921-12-23

China's delegation stepped forward
again on Wednesday with formal plea
to the Far Eastern committee for
the %abrogation of the treaties grow
ing out of the twenty-one demands
of Japan in 1915, which China says
she was forced to accept. By these
treaties Japan retains her hold on
S%hantung and Mapchuria. The Jap
anese delegates quickly and sharply
objected to theLChinese proposal and
the committee adjourned sine die.
Meanwhile the negotiations between
the Japanese and Chinese outside the
conference are continuing, the latter
putting forward a plan by which Chi
nese bankers propose to purchase from
Japan the ownership and control of
the Shantung railroad-the nub of the
whole controversy ove that province.
1t was said the japanese had so far
receded from their original claims for
retention of half ownership that they
were now willing to give up the road,
with certain reservations concerning
the methods and security for payment,
anu dlSO DICIClt lllidl IlSnlS VI IhNtol
ment. These rights might result in
giving the Japanese actual control of
the management, but China realizes
that she cannot get all she asks.
The members of the conference evi.
IDENTIFY feel that the best they can do
for China now is to adopt a new bill
of rights" for her which will enable
her to organize a stable functioning
government, and that to such a govern
ment may be left many of the counr
try's problems and troubles.
To further complicate the Chinese
problem came from the soviet govern
ment of Russia a protest against dis
cussion of the Chinese Eastern rail
way by the conference. The road,
which is of immense strategic and
economic Importance to Russia, China
and Japan, was built by Russia and
legally speaking belongs to Russia.
For several years it has been managed
by an interallied board whose chair
man is John F.. Stevens of America.
Both the United States and Japan
have spent large sums on the upkeep
of the line.
Secretary Hughes made public the
main points of the agreement entered
into between the United States and
Japan concerning zap and the other
islands north of the equator assigned
to Japan by the treaty of Versailles.
It confers upon the United States
equal privileges with Japan in all
those islands but imposes or it no
obligations or responsibilities.

MYTH that treaty out of its way
w the conference resumed consid-
GRAFTON of the naval reduction and,
limitation plan. The japanese plead
ed earnestly to be permitted to retain
their new pet dreadnaught, the Mutsu.
For several days the Americans held
out against this, but finally it was
agreed to, with the understanding that,
TO maintain the 5-5-3 ratio, the Ameri-
can navy should retain the super
dreadnaughts Colorado and Washing
ton in place of the Delaware and the
North Dakota, and that Great Britain
should retain two of the new Hood
type battleships already planned. But
those Hood vessels as designed would
be more powerful than either the Col
orado or the Mutsu class, so it was
suggested that they should not be
built any larger than the Colorado.
This plan was accepted by all and
he naval agreement was formally an
bounced to the conference. The pact
includes the provision that there shall
be no increases in Notifications and
naval bases In the Pacific region, in
.luding the British case and fOrtiica-
lions at Hongkong and Kow Loon.
This restriction does not apply to the
Hawaiian islands, Australia, New Yea
land, and Japan proper, nor to the
coasts of the United States and Can
ada.
