up.
Sir James said upon leaving that he
did not know whether there would be- an

At today's interview Mr.. Lloyd George
was unable to give Ulster assurance that
even if they agreed to his proposal the
Sim Fein would admit the point of allie
glance To the king as king of Irelapd.
Such admission has been refused by the
Dali Eireann representatives.
The Sim Fein delegates are in Dub

to confer with Mr.. DeValera.
This visit to Dublin is understood to
be a result of recent discussions betv cen
Sim Feiners and members of the British
cabinet. at which Mr.. Griffith and his col
leagues are said to have made clear that
they could not agree to swear allegiance
to the British crown, their idea of assO-

NIT to his parliament the reasons urged
by the prime minister why Ulster should

WASHINGTON. Nov. -. (Associated
Press The arms conference discussion
of Far Eastern questions shifted today
to the possibility of abridging the sys-
tenn of ''extra-territorial rights under
which the powers maintain their own ju-
dicial agencies in China for the trial of
cases in which their respective nationals
arc involved.
China wants the extra-territorial priv
ilcge abolished altogether, although her
delegates have indicated doubt whether
the present judicial machinery of the
Chinese government would make it pos
sible to withdraw the foreign tribunals
immediately.
The session of the nine delegations, sit
ting as a committee of the whole to dis
cusS the extra-terrtoriality program, was
the only meeting on tOday's program.
Belief was gaining ground today that
the conference might adjourn the first
fortnight of December to give time to the
delegates to go home for Christmas.

of the regency of Hirohito was expected
in japanese circles here as his recent
tour to Europe generally was understood
TO have been the first steps in the court
arrangements to give him the conduct of
the empire because of the continued i'll

His tour was arranged to give the
young crown prince an opportunity 10
study foreign lands and foreign customs.
On his return to Toxic he frankly adj
mitted that Japan had much to learn
from western countries.
The regent. who is only 20 years old,
has already abandoned the ancient idea
of imperial aloofness and he has recently
appeared informally at. various public

ARBUCKLE MAY
TAKE WITNESS STAND
Defense Intimates He May Testify Today
or TOmOrTOw-TO Hear More
PHYSICIANS

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. %. - Con-
lecture was rife before the opening Of
Judge Lazarus's court whether Roscoe c..
Fatty" Arbuckle would take the stand
today in his own behalf in his trial on
charge of manslaughter, growing out of
the death of Virginia Rappe The de
Tense has intimated that Arbuckle will go
to the stand today or tomorrow.
The defense expects to introduce tes
timony of more physicians in its attempt
to refute the assertions of the prosecu
ton that Miss Rappe was injured fatally
by force applied by Arbuckle. The de-
fence has contended that the bladder of
Miss Rappe. which an autopsy disclosed
had been ruptured, causing death was
weakened by disease.
The case is expected to go to the jury
next week.
