Churchill Pays Tribute
To York of Arms ParIey
Says irish Question Remains
as Force Tending to Divide
the English-Speaking World

LONDON, Dec. 16 (By The Associ-
ated Press Winston Spencer Chuch-
i'll, Secretary for the Colonies, pre-
siding at meeting of the English
Speaking Union tonight, paid an elo-
quent tribute to the work of the Wash
ington conference and Secretary
Hughes's great act of faith, whereby
the two great dangers of naval competi-
tion and of war in the Pacific are in q
fair way of being effectively removed
from the area of practical events"
Alluding to the Irish question, he de-
clared:
There remains among the forces
tending to keep the English-spcaking
world divided the formidable question
of ireland. Nobody can say how much
we suffered. through the unceasing
hostility of Irish-Am ericans, yet we
triumphed and built solid structure
of friendship with America. But only
consider how much better the relations
would have been if the whole influence
of the gifted Irish race had been
thrown in the direction of promoting
Anglo-American friendship, instead of
against it,"
In conclusion, the Secretary ex-
pressed his conviction that the settle
ment now arrived at with Ireland would
greatly facilitate the efforts of the
EnglishSpeaking Union in promoting
harmony between the two great COM
munites.

WASHINGTON, W Dec. 16.--Continu-
ing his attack on the four-power treaty.
IN the Senate to-day, Senator Reed. of
missouri, Democrat, one of the leader RS
OF the struggle against the League OF
Nations covenant in the last Adminis-
tratIon, declared that if this, treaty.
were ratified the United States would
be made "a second-ratc power in the
Pacific" He pictured the treaty as the
death warrant of China" and putting
the United States in a situation where
in case of trouble between a re-
awakened China or rehabilitated Rus
sia and Japan this country would
have to send troops and ships to the
backing of the Japanese.
The Senator also declared the treaty
ties us into the League of Nations.'
Our associates are tied into the
league" he said, "and arc subject to
The orders of the league, and VIC can,
therefore. be affected by it's decisions.
though we have no part or voice in
the league"
Holding that japanese diplomacy
since the beginning Of the World War
had shown it's superiority over Euro
pcan and American statesmen, Senator
Reed sought to show that the Japanese
diplomats had won another victory and
that the American representatives
"truckle to her and yield to her" in
respect to the terms of the naval agree
ment.
Sees Danger to America
The Missouri Senator spoke for
about three hours and in that time
covered a wide field He began by
criticizing features Of the naval agree
ment, in which he contended Japan had
come out ahead. He then took up the
four-power treaty and dealt with it in
detail, though he made it plain that
he expected to have much more to
say when the conference agreements
are formally laid before the Senate.
Senator Reed portrayed this country
as entering into an entangling alliance
of a dangerous sort, out of which it
got no advantage, while the interests
and possessions of England and Japan
IN the Pacific and the Orient were pro-
tected by it. Assailing the disposition
to put the United States in alliance
with other powers, Senator Reed said:
THE longing of the American heart
for some soreign stepmother makes
me sick"
Only few Republicans and few
moro Democrats gave attention to the
utteranccs of Senator Reed. He was
asked questions by Senators Shields,
OF Tennessee; Overman. of North
Carolina, and Stanley, of Kentucky,
that seemed to Indicate they were in
sympathy with his views. Senator
Underwood, Democratic leader and
American delegate, listened to the
speech for short time at the outset
and then left the chamber.
Senator'S Swanson and Robinson
We're among those who congratulated
Senator Reed on his efforts when he
sat down. Senator Curtis, Republican
whip, declared the friends of the treaty
would not discuss it until it was for

Japanese Base Pleasantly
On Retention Of the Mutsx

WASHINGTON, Dec. l6 (By The
Associated Press) Japan lost seven
but gets Mutsu," is the play upon
words which is circulating among the
Japanese delegates to the Washington
conference. 1t is a pleasantly to en-
body Japanese satisfaction at the set
tlement of the three-power naval ratio
question as to capital ships.
Muteu. it is explained. is not only the
name of the battleship which Japan
succeeded in saving from the SCRAP
heap, but, as pronounced and spelled
IN English, is the same as the Japanese
word which means the numeral 6. In
other words, Japan may have lost the
naval ratio of seven, which she would
have preferred, but in accepting the
six of the American naval proposals
she has retained the Mutsu.
The word Mutsu, as used for the
name of the battleship, refers to one
of the historical country districts Of
the Japanese Empire
