that way. The formula calls for &C
ton on the part of some recognized
organization-it may be a church, a
club, an association, or a banquet or
dinner party which furnishes the oc-
? casion. The point is that somebody
who is responsible in the capital, must
act as sponsor for these meetings. The
opportunities for hearing the biggest
men of every nation are so great in
Washington during the conference,
that no one has time or patience for
the soapbox variety of oratory that
counts in other cities.
Here is one brand Of optimism that
the world is feeding on at the con
ference for the limitation of arma-

peoples of the whole world" Former
Senator George Sutherland, chairman
of the American advisory committee
of the conference, upon the conclusion
of an audience with President Hard
ing, issued a statement in which he
said that the members of his advisory
committee were convinced that the
American people would accept without
protest the sinking of great American
battleships and cruisers as a part of
the contribution to what we have re,
ferred to as mental disarmament"
While the very air is filled with the
sounds of the cooling of the peace dove,
France apparently still wants a fight;
and the Italians and the French diplo-
mats have been rather discordant in
their statements about the purposes Of
the standing armies on the continent.
Germany's future has been discussed
somewhat in the proceedings Of the di-
plomats, and in view of the progressive
llDtl lDI lCDlN Ollb III lIS lCluNL
ship of German Chancellor Wirth, and
the evident disposition of the confer
ence to deal literally, but conserva-
lively, with the German situation, the
hope has been voiced by diplomats
that Germany might be brought into
the deliberations of the conference,
inasmuch as lasting world peace is the
aim that is sought. But Viviana, head
of the French delegation, has taken
steps to block the way towards any
such move by voicing his personal op-
position, and adding that unless it
means that the powers here repre-
scented intend to guarantee the pay
ment of the indemnity to Germany
that such proceeding would be en-
tirely out of order, because I'VE We're
invited to Washington to discuss limi-

about the war debts it is nevertheless
a subject which everyone seems to be

Japan has not agreed to many of the
proposals of the conference, it's repre-.

accord with the proceedings than ii
was thought they would be. Japan's

and there is ground for hope because
they have not squealed very much.
While members of the conference have

notes of dissent are heard outside. and
the principal note of discord has been
sounded by Senator Borah, who a
that the continuing of the association
of nations would be the old league of
nations under another name" Borah
has no use for such organizations, and
he maintains that America should "go
it alone" and remain free from what
George Washington called "entangling
alliances" If, however, we must have
arrangements for perpetual peace with
other nations, Mr.. Borah says that he
