cinL Relations of Nnfions

From Tho TYinawe's woshiaotoa Sureou
WASHINGTON, Dec. u.--An inter
national economic conference to be held
at the invitation of the government Of
the United States is urged by the gem
eral committee or the limitation of
armament in resolution of the gov
sernng board which was made public
tonight. The committee holds that
this proposed conference will be as
vital 10 the commercial and industrial
relations of the nations of the world
as the present armament conference is
to the political and diplomatic rela-
tons.
at will be equally momentous in
ushcring in new era of peaceful and
friendly adjustment of international
problems, and viii be of the greatest
consequence In removing economic bar
riers and consequent misunderstand-
ings, such IS in the past have led TO
war. Its need is based upon the pres
ent uncertainty of world production
and instability of world markets." says
the committee.
The general committee on the limi-
tation of armament is a citizens body,
with Samuel Gompers and Oscar S.
Straus as honorary chairmen. and n
governing board of thirty members.
Its statement OF purpose proclaims it's
belief in disarmament, recurring con-
ferences among the nations and Amer
lea 5 participation in some organic and
continuing relationship" of nations.

ton leaders express utmost confidence
the treaty will go through. In some
quarters, it was recalled to-day the
opposition to the League covenant in
the Senate at first did not seem TO be
such as would block its ratification,
but the opposition became stronger and
more determined as time went on
The present treaty is not likely to
run Il similar course for number of
reasons. One of them is that it is be-
heved President Harding in submit
ting this treaty to the Senate will
have public sentiment with him to Il
much larger extent than President Will
son did.
Few Republican Senators evidently
will oppose ratification, and the Demo-
Gratis who sustained the League of Ma
tlons, though some of them are be-
lifting the treaty, will apparently
vote for it.
What attitude former President Will
son VIII take regarding the new con-
yention is the subject of speculation.
II he should exert his influence against
the treaty it would affect some votes,
but it is not deemed probable that it
would prevent two-thirds of the Sena-
tors supporting ratification.
Inc treaty will not be formally sub
mltted for some time. 1t will be held
back to await other agreements by the
conference. The fact that this agree
ment and others are to go to the Sen
ate this session may affect materially
the Legislative program. 1t looks as il
weeks, possibly months, would be given
over to the consideration of the new
agreements in the Senate, with ten
dency to stretch ont the regular ses~
sion and to interfere to a considerable
extent with legislative measures,

WASHINGTON, Dec. IL (By The AS.

American idealism into international
affairs was characterized by Prince
Tokugawa, one of the Japanese dele
gates, as "the most refreshing thing
in the modern world" in an address
tonight before the Federal Council OF
Churches. The meeting was attended
by other members of the delegation

BILE progress has been made in the es-
tablishment of closer relations among
the speaking peoples. To many
that seems almost as important as the
more definite results attained. The
Srltish don't need an alliance with the
United States; they are entirely salts
aed with mere understanding. a pen-
flemen's agreement.
Another reason for the satisfaction
evident here is the disappearance of

treaty would soon go seemed apparent

is now no further cause for friction on
this score.
1t was a happy week for England
that marked the signing of peace be-

alliance.

belief that the 5-5-3 naval ratio is

holiday and will enter the political

amendment to vote and it was carried.
The amended resolution read:
I'VE recognize that the peace Of the
world rests upon the cooperation of
all races, and in particular we demand
that in all conferences or agreements
in regard to keeping the peace China
and all other nations be included ON

Calls for Demonstration
At the close of the meeting Professor
Crooks called upon all those who did
not believe in the wisdom Of the four
power alliance to march upon the Pan
American Building to indicate their
protest.
ave have gone on record in this
mass meeting in disapproval Of four
power alliances, and l call upon all of
you who believe that the United States
should not enter into any alliance, cx-
cept with all the nations of the world,
to take up the banners which surround
the hall and march with me to the
Pan-American Building. You will find
torches in the lobby, and let Us take
these banners up there and leave them
SO that the delegates to the conference
may know how we stand"
The crowd, accordingly, seized ban
ners and torches, which already were
lighted at the door, and, forming a
procession more than two blocks long,
marched past the White House and the
State, War and Navy Building, to the
Pan-American Building. Some Of the
banners were planted before the build

four-power Pacific treaty came to,

Hitchcock, of Nebraska, assista nj
Democratic, leader and ranking Demo
cratic member of the Foreign Relations
Committee, that he expected to vote
for its ratification. He led the fight ir
the Senate for ratification of the Yer
sailles Treaty.
Il see no reason for opposition to
the treaty" said Senator Hitchcock
There does not seem to be any very
serious objection or any reason fol
great rejoicing over it, 1t reminds me
of the old saying that it is good
enough, what there is Of it, and
enough of such as it is.''
Senator Hitchcock said that the
treaty was similar in some respects to
the League of Nations covenant.
The treaty is very mild and is a
good enough way to get rid Of the
Anglo-Japanese alliance"

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.--Arouscd by
resolutions which condemned the four
power alliance and insisted the United
States should not bo party to any
alliance that did not include all the
nations of the world, several hundred
men and women who were attending q
mass meeting at the new Masonic
Temple auditorium seized the banners
which had been used as decorations
and marched to tho Pan American
Building as protest against the
treaty.
The mass meeting was under the di-
rection of the Women's international
League for Peace and Freedom, with
Miss Jane Adams, of Chicago, pre-
siding. 1t was addressed by speakers
from different countries, including
Nyok Zoe Dong. n Chinese student, and
Miss Garju Barish, Russian refugee.
The appeal which caused the demon
stration was made by tho Rev. Marga-
ret Crook, professor at Wellesley
College.
High School Girls Parade
The parade was led by girls from
Western High School bearing banners
and torches. More than a hundred
banners were carried in the parade,
many Of them demanding complete dis
armament, cessation of war by poison
gas, submarines and other new meth
DDS of war.

The plain fact is that whole subject
remains vague and that what has hap
pened is that the favorable reception
of the proposed association Of ycster-
