Peace Treaty Must BE Revised
To Save Europe, Declares Borah

cred a forerunner Of much discussion,
on the part of himself and others, OF
European conditions when the foreign
debt bill is brought up for Senate con-
sideraton. He said:
"1'here is no doubt but what the
bankruptcy Of Germany is now immi-
nent and the consequences Of 1t would
be impossible to describe or foretell
Some people seem of the opinion that
you can destroy Germany without de-
stroying Europe. But you cannot eliml-
nate the most powerful economic unit
Of the continent without destroying the
continent. On the one hand they in
sist Germany must pay every cent; on
the other hand, Nh. Brand tells us in
effect in his speech that the fact that
Germany is trying to pay and building
up her industries is an indication that
Germany is getting ready to reap re-
venge SO between the two PROPOSE
tions the logic Of the situation is that
Germany is to be driven into bank
ruptcy, which means decade of un-
told suffering throughout the continent.
These people have no right to call upon
the United States, or any one else, for
assis tance until they do what they can
do to put their own house IN order.

Britain, France, Germany and Japan

Taking the position that Germany

there was revived propaganda in this
country to the effec5 that the United
States must rave Europe, but that the
United States could not cave Europe
unless Europe was wiling to be saved.
He asserted no power could save
Europe until the Versailles Treaty was
completely overhauled.
The view of Senator Borah, as his
statement indicates, is that it is use
less for the United States to try to

debt of the Allies, unless the economic
features of the Treaty OF Versailles are
rewritten.

Japan Ready TO Leave

TOXIC Delegate Declares His Va

Its Interests Will Be Safe

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8 (By The AS
sociatcd Press ).-Vice Foreign Minister
Fanihara, one of the Japanese dele
gates, said tonight that Japan was
always ready to evacuate Siberia IT a
suitable agreement could be made with
the Far Eastern Republic of Chita
which would assure protection to Japa-
nese residents, serve to open up the
country to all foreigners and afford
some guaranty to Japan concerning
the protection Of the Corean frontier.
He explained that the Japanese occu-
patton of parts of the Province of
Saghalin, which incl ludes the northern
part of the Island of Saghalin, is re-
garded by the japanese as an entirely
separate question, arising from the
massacre Of the Japanese residents at
the City Of Nikolaievsk. Negotiations
On this subject, he said, would be un-
dertaken when a "really solid govern
ment" comes into existence in Russia.
Mr.. Hanihara said he was perfectly
satisfied with the progress made in the
conference at Washington. In fact, he
thought it was "rather going tooHfast, "
adding that he could "hardly keep up
with the pace"

Sim Feiners Also Say Free

Make Good on Leans Here
From The Tr,oane's Europsan Bureau

Copyright. 1921. New York Tribune Inc.
LONDON, Dec S.-Irish bonds that
were bought on faith by supporters of
the Sim Fein cause in Ireland and the
United States seem to be in a fair way
TO become sound securities. The treaty
which establishes the Irish Free State
gives to the Irish Parliament complete
freedom in fiscal matters. and the be-
Eef was expressed here to-day that this
meant the Sim Feip would be free to
make good their loans.
There are two issues of bonds. The
drst was foated in 1919-192O. and
authorized the raising OF Sl000O,000 in
the United States and 100000 in Ire
land. The second was hoated in the
United States only two months ago.
They are interest bearing. dated from
The recognition of the Irish republic"
and redeema able within twenty years
after recognition.
There are two Gaelic words for re-
public. One is "Pobacht." which was
first used; the second is "Saorstait." of
which a literal translation is free

Leading Sim Feiners say that Ire
lands control of hcr finance creates an
obligation to redeem republican liabil-
ities, which certainly Will be met as
soon as the new free state is function

ing over the Japanese desire to keep
the Mutsu, their prize new battleship
built by popular subscriptions. In re-
turn for this they are willing either
to scrap an older ship or approximate
tonnage or else permit the United
States and Great Br tain to keep new
ships. This point, SO far as can be
learned, is still undecided, but It is
sibility could it prevent the success Of
the naval agreement.
Then there is the British desire to
change the replacement scheme 50 as
to avoid the alternating preponderance
of strength in new ships by the Ameri-
can and British navies. This point the
British never will permit to stand in
Che way of an agreement. In fact, the
British have indicated to the Ameri-
cans that, having made the point, they
are all through and will abide by any
decision that is agreeable to the
United States. The American naval
advisers themselves now want a change
to prevent the objections which the
British have pointed out,
This naval agreement, however, is
complicated by the Japanese insist
encs that everything else must be
settled at the same time. There has
been no final agreement as to fortific ca

ones concerned are only little way

1t is the proposed solution of this
question, cabled to Toxic by Baron
Kato, which is one of the things de-

tung decision and the attitude of the
Chinese on all questions affecting them
are the real explanation OF the growing
irritation against the Chinese among
the American and British delegations
This feeling is that the Chinese, un-
able utterly to help themselves, arc en-
tirely too critical of any measures
which are intended for their relief.
Despite cables from Toxic there is nc
doubt here about the acceptance by all
four powers of the quadrilateral agree.

BERLIN, Dec. 8 (By The Associated

reserve is less than 1000, 100000 marks.
A further reduction to half that amount
would not have any appreciable effect
on currency devaluation, in the upin-

These experts believe an unlimited out

greater slump in the mark than a re-

to loan Germany large sum, Germany
probably would consent to the transfer
