speeches made in the conference were
specific in detail. Very nice as far
as they CO." was the manner in which
one Of the Chinese representatives
summed up the addresses.
However the approval Of a general
policy in general terms was at least
material step forward. 1t will be
when the detailed discussion is in
iuated and the various Chinese de-
mands are coupled with the agenda
subjects and debated together that it
will be possible to determine how prac-
teal the friendly suggestions Of yes
terday are to be made.
For instance, in his remarks on the
subject of extra-territorality Baron
kato said that it was his desire to
join with the other nations in the en-
deavor to come to an arrangement in
a manner satisfactory to all parties.
Whether this will include the handing
back to China Of the numerous con-
cessions taken boldly by Japan at
various times is something no one yet
is In position to say. Either Great
Britain or France can be expected to
precipitate discussion on this point in
the very near future by renewing Of
ficially their private assurance that
they are willing to hand back to China
territory now held il all holders Of
similar concessions will follow suit.
Such an offer would Immediately test
the sincerity of the Japanese state
ments already made.

Arms Writer Solves Puzzle
Thereby Strikes Another
Riddle of Volstead, European Diplomacy,
Long Drought and Hard Winter Coming,
Blend in Happy Dream

The rarest type of an accident
has occurred. the sort in which
pathos and mirth are SO intimately
blended as to make IL delightful.
One of the American writers
solved a diplomatic secret that has
been, and still Is. one of the great
est puzzles. In some adroit man.
ner he had himself invited to one
of the foreign mission headquar

and bounty that is possible by viz

He made himself quite at home
and for the omissions during the
long, heated summer and the Bit
ter. biting winter. omissions for
which Mr.. Volstead commonly Is
blamed, he performed heroically. In
the space of an evninG he tried TO
crowd in all the enjoyment he had
missed. His hosts were amazed,
but Amusement in turn gave way
to shear admiration. and when the
guest, somewhat mellowed. pre-
pared to depart he was presented
with a brace of handsome con-
tanners, containing the very best
that it is possible to bring from
foreign shores.
The writer made his way to the
trolley and seated himself for a
long ride to his dwelling. Abso-

being admitted where others have

we shall have a reduction Of

clear that we shall have no
break over the Far East and
that measurably we shall pro-
coed by unanimous consent to
establish those points on which
agreement is possible and to
postpone for discussion those
issues on which immediate

In sum, the first week of
the conference has demon
strated that the whole world
is ready to accept a pro-
gram of naval limitations such
as Mr.. Hughes, with daring
courage, presented to the
conference on the first day.
By contrast, all the talk of

At the close of the first week
of the Washington conference

progress of events? Briefly.
thus:
We are still measurably un-
der the empire of the first ses-
sion. Mr.. Hughes swift, start
ling and decisive declaration
eight days ago still supplies
the main motive power OF the
session.
In the nature OF things two
questions were to be answered
First. what of the limitation of
ornaments? and, second, what
Of the Far East?
VIII Adopt Hughes Plan.
As to the former. we have
program already accepted by
the great powers and despite
all the present haggling. pro-
testing, suggesting, in the end
Mr.. Hughes program is going
to be accepted substantially as
it was presented. All the con-
fusion of rumOr and of rOor-
back does not in the least ar-
feet the main situation. Each
great power has special inter-
ests and special concerns in the
matter of sea security. Each is
presenting its case. Modifica-
tions and amendments Of the
Hughes program in detail are
not only possible but probable,
but such amendments as would
transform the proportions and
measurably restore competition
will in the end disappear. So
