DELEGATES PLAN
CLOSE STUDY OF
CHINA PROPOSAL
Responsible Officials Of the
Delegations Reserve
Judgment Regarding e.,
feCtS of Scheme Outlined

Washington, Nov. l6'--AccepI-
ance in spirit and in letter or the
principles suggested by China Tor
solution Of the Far Eastern prop
lens, would, in the opinion OF some
diplomatic experts, have a sweep
ing effect on the aspect of the Pa
cific and oriental situation.
As analysed by some, the pom
cies proposed by the Chinese dele-
cation might not only do away
with spheres of influence" IN the
Far East and eXtra-terrltorlal
rights within China, but might also
erect a barrier against renewal Oh
the Auglo-Japanese alliance unless
China were given opportunity -
becoming a party to it. British az
not take this view.
Responsible officials OF the dele
cations reserved Judgment regard
ing effects of the Chinese p!a'
preferring to scrutinize it closely
That portion Of the Chines
statement to which the Japahes
appeared to attach greatest Inn
portance as affecting their indlVIu
ual interests, was the section pre-
posing that existlhg commitment
relating to China should be "e'
amined with a view to determinln
their scope and validity. Japa
y IS maintained that closed Incl
dents" should not be considere
within the province of the confe'
ence and, although her spokesme
declare themselves ready to adm
any shortcomings of which worl,
opinion may find her guilty, the
assert to go back through histor
and question the validity of o.
agreements would complicate
agreement.
In the opinion of many of thos
connected with the conference
this provision of the Chinese pla
would throw open to review BY
the armament conference manN
covenants, including the agreemen
growing out of the leases held b.
Japan on Shantung and Manchu
ria, and numerous contracts pei
hitting foreign control of rail
roads in China. In addition, it ha
been charged by Chinese authori
ties that foreign nations have con
cluded treaties" with various 10
cal potentates and all of these
might have to be laid on the table
if the proposed principles were ac-
cepted. Some thought 1t likely
that the Anglo-Japanese alliance
might also fall under the classifl-
cation of this section of the Chi
nese proposal, although the sec
ton regarded as affecting 1t more
directly is that the powers would
"agree not to conclude between
themselves any treaty or agree
ment directly affecting China or
the general peace of these regions
without previously notifying
China"

plain His Country'S Posi-
ton in an Address When
Hughes Names the Day.
Try The Associated y-ress.l

Washington, Nov. 16 (by the
Associated Press) French dele
gates, commenting on the Chinese
proposals agree that they form a
suitable basis for the discussion of
the Far Eastern question, The
proposals to them, however. seem
to lack definiteness except as to
principle and 1t Is presumed that
the Chinese delegation will take an
early occasion for suggesting spe-
cific settlements of the Shantung,
Mongolia, Manchuria and other
disputatious problems. Premier
BRAND, while not saying anything
respecting the Chinese project,
commented on the general outline
of his proposed speech about the
French army.
France, being Isolated" he said,
"is in a different position from
America, Great Britain and Japan
in the limitation of naval arma-
ments. Those countries are friends
and they propose, as friends,
among themselves to reach a rea-
sonable and equitable restriction;
France is not in such relation to
Germany. Consequently, France Is
bound to make some provision for
her security as seems to her suffi-
cient.
Germany is In situation
where she can with great rapidly
mobilize five or six million men
who have had service in her ar
mics. We must be able to put i'm
mediately into action a force ade.
quate to delay or prevent rapid
mobilization. I shall go into these
questions in the address I am to
make when Mr.. Hughes indicates
the day."
