1t was an ample reply to the anti
French propaganda Of Wells ct al,
and that it did not fail of effect on
his fellow c~onferees. Arthur Balfour
was the first to respond, and Secre-
tary Hughes followed him. Both as
sured BRAND that their countries ap-
preciated the position OF France and
virtually pledged the support for
which he had pleaded, though Of
course both were careful not to prom
Use an equivalent in international law
for the INSTRUMENTATION de-
fensive treaty which Lloyd George,
Clemenceau and Wilson signed, but
which never was even submitted to
the American senate. Mr.. Hughes ar
ranged that the question of land arma-
ment should be further considered by
a committee, but the impression was
general that 1t would be permitted to
die, at least so far as limitation is
concerned; and this impression was
strengthened by the departure of NJ.
BRAND and the French military sec
ton for home, the premier being Sc
cure in the belief that his country
would not now be asked to reduce it's
army further than its presept plans
contemplate. One other cause of de-
bate he had INTERCEPTED into his argu-
ment. This was the claim of France
to keep an ample number of subma-
rines for the defense of her long sea-
coast. For what can France wish
submarines except to attack Eng
land?" cried the propagandists at
once. To which the only adequate
reply is laughter.
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1921-12-02

TT WAS foreseen that the Chinese
L problem would be the most trou-
blesome for the conference, for obvious
reasons. At this writing 1t seems to
have come to a question whether the
Anglo-Japanese treaty will be abro-
gated, and if so, whether some sort
Of a tripartite agreement will be sub
stituted for it. Unless the former is
done, probably the discussions will be
fruitless; and unless the latter is
done, 1t is likely Great Britain will
not consent to the former. On Mon
day the eight powers sitting in the
committee on the Far East adopted
a program submitted by Elihu Root
by which these points were made
sure:
There will be no Intervention by
foreign powers in the present polit-
ical struggle in China.
The territorial and administrative
integrity of the Asiatic republic is as
sured.
Japan and all the other nations
agreed to refrain from a greedy scram-
BILE for commercial rights and privi-
leges there.
The "open door, finds a new defni-
ton.
Baron Kato won a decided victory
for Japan when he persuaded the
committee virtually to recognize that
Manchuria, though an integral part
of China, is so thoroughly in possess
sion of the Japanese that the status
quo should be maintained there. There
is divergence of views among the
British, French and Chinese as to
how the Root principles are to be
applied to specific matters. At the
close of the week the Chinese pro-
posals for lifting foreign restrictions
on China's customs revenue were be-
ing considered by a subcommittee.
One concession had been won by the
Oriental neutrality-suspicious. to in
crease its tariff rate from 5 per cent
to 1914 per cent. So far as is now
apparent, the idea Of restoring to
China the various parts Of her ter
ritory now held by other powers has
gone into the discard. That question
is complicated by the fact that Rus
slams have control of outer Mongolia
and have set up a Mongolian soviet
there. Moreover Tchitcherin, Russian
minister of foreign affairs, says they
intend to stay there, and 1t is beyond
thought that any of the nations rep
resented in the Washington confer
ence should undertake to oust them.
MYTH the final adoption of two
w measures of Importance = the
tax bill and the anti-medicinal beer
bill-congress wound up the business
of the special session and adjourned
Wednesday afternoon. The senators
and representatives will have about
ten days vacation before the regular
session meets. Enactment of the tax
bill into law means the repeal of the
transportation taxes and a consider
able number of other miscellaneous
taxes on January 1. 1922. While the
repeal of the excess profits tax and
the changes in corporation income
tax and individual surtax rates also

nIPLOMATIC relations between the
~ United States and Germany were
resumed last week by exchange of
ambassadorial calls in Paris and by
the arrival in Washington of Baron
Edmund Won Thermann as charge
d'affaires to prepare the embassy for
the coming of an ambassador. He is
fitting up the building with furnish
ings plain and inexpensive enough to
suit the most democratic, having
brought most of them from Berlin.
Any extravaganza would be incon-
sistent with the poverty pleas of the
German government. which is now
seeking foreign credits to enable it to
pay the PREPARATIONS and customs in
stallments due the allies early next
year.
The riots and strikes in Berlin, due
to high prices of food and the low
