CATURDAY, November 10, may, and
- ii is to be hoped will, be set apart
In the history of the world as one of
its most momeutaus dates. On that
day was formally opened In Washing
ton the conference on limitation of
ornaments and Far East questions
which, II II is successful, will 90 far
toward curing some of the worst ills
of what we are pleased to call civli-
cation. The projectors OF, and partici-
pants in. this meeting do not enter
tain the illusory hope that 1t will re-
suit Immediately, or even soon, In the
aboishing Of warfare. but they do be-
lieve and the world trusts, that their
deliberations and agreements will settle
peaceably the tangled affairs of the
Pacific and the Orient, and so far cut
down the naval and army programs Of
the great powers that the tax-burdened
peoples will experience a tremendous
financial relief, and the threat of an.
other general or even important war
will be far removed.
II was in the handsome auditorium Of
the Continental Memorial hall that the
opening session of the conference was
held. When Secretary of State Hughes
arose to call II to order, he faced the
most distinguished assemblage of men
and women this country ever has seen.

told more at length OF the hopes and
purposes that had led him to invite
the powers to this conference. He
spoke persuasively and well even the
most pessimlstic OF his hearers could
not help but feel that there was a
fair chance that those hopes would be
realized.
After the formallties, the confer

Hughes being elected chairman. and
other officers being chosen. Adjourn
