ACCEPTED IN PRINCIPLE.

The proposals for rmament reduction made on
behalf OF the United States have been accepted in
principle" by the powers most intimately affected.
Those who are cynically inclined will point out
that there is a great difference between acceptance
in principle and unqualified acceptance. It's al
ways possible, in giving assent in principle to a
plan, but withholding complete acceptance, t. pro-
pose amendments in form SO many and Sc. radical
as to wreck the entire plan. s45a
But there is every reason for confidence in this
case that acceptance iii principle really means some
thing, and. that the nations are prepared to put
forth every effort to- adjust the details in such a
manner as to- carry out the principles laid down,
rather than to use details for obstructionary and
destructive purposes.
No one has expected that any nation immediate
ly concerned would give its unqualified assent to
the precise program laid down by Secretary
Hughes. 1t is quite likely that the American dele
changes in some Of the details before they have pro-
cceded very far.
The suggestion made BY the British delegation,
for instance, that instead Of a complete cessation
of naval construction for ten years, with the work
of replacement then to begin, that work should
proceed continuously, being limited to the scale
provided for i'll the agreement, merits considera-
ton. This is a detail, but a rather important one.
For the building Of a battleship. a large and ex-
pensive plant is required and there are requirements
which cannot readily be met in the ordinary course
OF shipbuilding. The modification proposed would
call for the constant operation OF fewer OF smaller
plants, with less equipment and a smaller force
than would be necessary if the complete outfit were
to be created anew. Such matters are details on
which the experts must have their say, and in which
the adoption of either method will not impair the
essentials.
The broad principle in the American plan is that
ting three nations affected shall proceed immediate
~ to scrap about half their navies. and to limit
future construction according to such arrangements
as may be made. That principle is accepted, with
the enthusiastic approval Of the peoples Of the civ
ilized world. No government can now. insist or,
details which will render that general plan abort
i've without mourning the condemnation OF man
kind.

MR.. HAGAN MOVES OUT.
Commissioner Hagan has moved 0,

Commissioner Hagan has moved out Of the
house which the state of North Dakota, through its
Home Building associations, builtrfor him. He is
very frank in stating his reasons. He was told that
the house he occupies would cost him $1,000, plus
some $500 for extras. (Thc matter of 5000 is such
% trifing extension Of the legal limit when compar-
ed with Mr.. Lemke's doubling or TRIPPING it that
this feature may be left out Of account.) But in
stead of a little over $4,000. Mr.. Hagan says that
he is now informed the cost will be Sc, $685. IS, all
excess OF more than So, 900 above the original esti-
mate and above what he is willing to pay. He has
no contract with the state, is not liable for this or
any other sum therefore, he moves out and the
state has a house on its hands. @
! This is merely one concrete case which OK
%,rnplihes the utter incapacitv OF the manner in
which the afairs>o OF the state Home Building asso-
citation have been handled. 'Fhe individuals for
whom houses have been built have been given esti-
mates of costs which were mere guesses, and very
poor guesses at that. The cost Of the four or FIVE
dozen houses erected will average 80 to 40 per cent
more than these guesses. The individuals who ex-
sEected to become owners OF these properties are not
bound by contracts. The property belongs to the
state, and the individuals are at liberty to throw up
their agreements wheenevr they see fit. The sums
which they have paid represent only a rental pay
,nent on the property. and they can afford to quit
and call it square. The prospect is that before long
the state of North Dakota will own forty or fifty
houses. the cost Of which has run manv thousands
above the estimates and for which there will never
be purchasers at anything like the cost price. Some
day it will be necessary to dispose of this property,
and there will be a s~hrinkage OF thirty or forty per
cent. The situation is exceedingly interesting be-
cause Of the fact that Mr.. Hagan, who now repudi.
ates his unconpleted contract, as. a member of the
state industries commission, is one Of the men hay
ing full charge over the affairs of the Home Build.
ers' association. Mr.. Hagan, therefore.3 repudiates
bis own work as having been poorly,done, and turn:
the results owe" to the state for the state to do will
as it may deem best.

A TRIUMPH OF SECRECY.

.Aiter all the palaver there has been about
publicity at the armament, conference, and after all
the ]insistence that there has been that all the pro-
ceedings shall be in the full view of all who care to
attend, and that the very thinking OF the delegates
shall be done in public, right at the opening of the
conference, before the delegates had had a chance
to warm their seats, comes a stunning, astounding,
unthought-of, and almost unthinkable triumph for
the cause Of peace as a result of profound and
%abys1nal secrecy until the right moment had ar
rived to turn on the lights.
The foreign delegates, members OF the Ameri-
can congress, and the American public were in pro
found ignorance OF what the American proposal
would be until the moment when it was made. The
only people who knew anything about it were those
who participated in framing it, and they kept their
mouths closed admirably.
This proposal for the destruction Of half Of the
1eavy fighting ships OF the worlds greatest three
navies, representing a cost Of a billion dollars. was
not made on the spur Of the moment. 1t was the
result OF weeks of study and elaboration in which
the services of many experts were required, and in
connection with which, undoubtedly, many diverg-
ent views had to be reconciled. Suppose all the
steps in this planning had been taken in public, anc
that from day to day it had been announced thai
the commission was studying this or that phase o
the subject with a view to preparing a course o
action along a designated line. Objections woule
have poured in from every direction, coming from
those who felt certain that the commission wa.
travelling .in.the wrong direction. Scores Of peopl,
who believed their toes were being trodden OF
would zhaveSdernanded hearings. The plan woul,
have been shot as full Of holes as a sieve, and othe
delegations would have been ready with counte
proposals.
Tie plans were made, as they should hav
been, IN secret When they were completed the,
were announced. and the world has them. More
over, the indications are that the world is going t
adopt them, or something very like them, and tina
without unnecessary delay.
