DIRECTNESS AIDS
SPEEDOF FARLEY
DipIon,atists Believe They Al
ready Can See With Precision
Results of Conference
AGREEMENT REACHED
ON CHINESE POLICY
Both Japanese And Chinese Del
egations Express Satisfac-
ton Over Result

WASHINGTON, Nov 22.-(By
Associated Press. Opinions have
been exchanged among the arms dele
gates with such unprecedented RECT
ness that with the conference only
ten days old, some experienced diplo-
matists here believe they can see, al
most with precision, what it will and
viii not be possible to accomplish.
Consideration of Far Eastern prob
lens was renewed today by the dele
gates of the nine nations, sitting
again as a committee Of the whole,
with the hope that further general
principles could be Incorporated in
the agreement reached yesterday
AT the present Indications point
to an understanding, rather than
treaty as the form to be taken by the
final Far Eastern agreement.
A joint declaration of policy to-
ward China, based ON territorial and
administrative integrity, economic OPP
portunity and enforced open door"
and the abolition of special rights"
was. agreed upon yesterday by all the
nations represented in the arms con
ference.
The first definite agreement to
come out of the conference, the dee.
laration touches in general terms
most of the principles for which
China asked in her bill of rights,
but does not provide in detail for the
settlement of the specific problems
with which she is confronted.
Elihu Root, of the American dele
cation, proposed the declaratory reso-
luton and two hours of debate pre-
coded its adoption During the dis
eussion both Japan and China, as the
most directly interested nations, ask
Cd many questions as to possible APP
Eiication Of the suggested principles
IN specific problems, while all the
other nations took less active patr
in the debate.

resolution was expressed by Admiral

might lead 70 ID the Far East. Tie
Chinese also declared themselves
gratified at die development, and the
delegates of the Giehr nations gem,
orally voiced the lew that the agree
ment wa sa go)l start toward com
Iplete agreement on the most import
ant of the Far Eastern questions.
The two features Of the declara-
ton attracting widest attention were
the cause of approving 'adninistra-
tive integrity" for China, and that
under which the powers agreed not
to seek Especial rights" within Chi
nese territory. Previous declarations
Of policy regarding Chinese integrity
has stopped with territorial integri-
| ty," commonly construed as a much
narrower term than administrative
Integrity" The special rightes'
| agreement was considered generally
a direct contravention of the policy
