forthcoming. The statement of prin-
ciples presented by the Pekin Govern
ment to-day contains no suggestion for
the application to specific problems.
Japan can very reasonably accept
them without impairing the security OF
her own position and probably Will DO
so. The representatives of the Mikado's
Government can. IL SO disposed. clear up
most of the perplexities regarding the
tangle over Chinese affairs by frank
statement Of her own views accompanied
by guarantees OF desirable reforms
But up to date the Japanese repre-
sentatives who are most affable and vo-
cally sympathetic with the American
agenda covering Far Eastern matters
have not shown any tendency to as
sumo the initiative In so doing.
The conferees representing the other
eight countries have not succeeded In
obtaining more than a vague outline
regarding the purposes Of Japan regard
ing Shantung, Siberia, the extent to
which she will go in making the "open
door, a reality, the clearing UP OK the
confusion over the administration OF
the Chinese affairs and finally any SIN
cere desire to invite the participation OF
other powers In the Chinese consortfum.
The assurance comes from apparently
authoritative quarters that Japan will
ultimately bring forward plan by
which she will agree to share with other
Powers in the development of southern
Manchuria and that under the agis of
a genuine 'open door" policy will offer
to cooperate on an equal basis with
other Powers in the unselfsh develop
ment and administration of China.
There is OF course much speculation
as to the exact purpose Of Japan toward
these wholly desirable reforms. State
ments from Baron Takahashi. the new
Premier. and the general expressions Of
sympathy for the motives Of the Wash
ington conference has created very
favorable atmosphere. Up to date, how +.
ever. these expressions have been more
convincing as to form than to substance.
1t is very naturally supposed that
japan Is awaiting favorable oppor-
tunity to follow the example of the
American Government in offering to
point the way to the emancipation Of
China and the removal of political. eco
nomic and diplomatic obstacles that
render conditions in the Far East Of
great and disturbing concern.
1t Is assumed the Japanese represen-
tatives are awaiting to note the trend
and character Of the conference conclu.
e!ons in the matter of naval armament
before proposing the plan which the
representatives of friendly Powers have
been led to believe she will submit to
make the solution Of Far Eastern prob
lens a matter Of comparative ease.

FRANCE THROWS WEIGHT

China's Proposals IN Far East

New York Herald Bureau.
Washington, ID. c., Nov. 16.
In French official circles tonight the
French attitude on Far Eastern affairs
Is said to be that war In the Pacific
must be avoided at all costs. French
interests there may be less than those
of other powers. but France Is no less
anxious to see q satisfactory settle
ment of Oriental problems.
The French, generally speaking. do
not regard a Pacific conflict as such
remote contingency as would appear to
be the case In American and Japanese
official circles. and therefore Frances
decision to throw her weight on the
side of peace is more than mere diplo-
macy verbiage.
The impression exists In influential
quarters in Washington that Mr..
Hughes's anticipated bombshell In
connection with the Far East has come
in the giise of the Chinese proposals
made at the arms committee meeting
to-day.
The Japanese among others are be-
lieved to have the idea that Americas s
Far Eastern surprise consists In the
fact that the Chinese have put for
ward what would otherwise have been
the American proposals, at least approx
imately.
French circles understand that the
japanese will reply tomorrow to the
contentious Of China and that tomorrow
will mark the crisis of the conference.

BALFOUR TELLS ALL
BUT ENJOINS SILENCE
Meets 100 Correspondents and
Perspires Freely.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16 (Associated
Press) Arthur j. Balfour head of the
British delegation TO the Washington
Conference. stood i'm a circle of more
than 100 correspondents in the dining
room of the British Embassy tonight
and answered almost as many ques-
tions. 1t was new experience for the
British statesman and he seemed to en-
Joy 1t.
But while he answered nearly every
question there was one big reservation
he was not to be quoted.
Treat me with the same mercy that
you do your American Secretary of
State he said. smiling. as he mopped
beads of perspration from his brow.
1t was warm I'm the room, and Mr.. Bal
four apparently was worn by his long
day of conferences.
Entering with Ambassador Geddes,
Mr. Balfour first sat beside the dining
table, which had been pushed against
the wall. but a moment later went to the
centre Of the room. When somebody
standing back near the door asked a
question Mr.. Balfour stepped briskly
toward him, listened intently and replied
quickly, always with smile.
As he sat down at first he folded his
hands. smiled. looked around and then
quickly announced that he had no speech
on contemporary politics but would be
glad to answer the curious.
There was a twinkle of amusement
In his eye when somebody addressed
him as Lord Balfour," and again when
he was asked to express offhand an
opinion on a delicate subject of which
he would not speak.
The cordial manner in which he re-
ceived the correspondents and endeav-
ored to enlighten them brought a sharp
ring of applause at the end. as Lord
Riddell took him by the arm and an
nounced that he was wanted elsewhere.
Arrangements were made to-day by

Chance for Disputes.

Chance for Disputes.
The Chinese suggestion relative to the
integrity of Chinese territory alone
carries the possibility of much diversity
CT opinion. In the present chaotic con-
dition of China there Is much doubt as
to what China really consists Of and
what territory Is to be assigned to her
as her own. The Chinese viewpoint IS
that China consists of eighteen prov
inces, including Manchuria. and it is I'M
tlerstood this represents the American
Judgment. Still others have argued that
the Great Wall Of China is its natural
boundary, and this does not include Man
churia. The American viewpoint is that
the Chinese boundary is naturally where
another country abuts, and that Man
churia has been an integral part of
China for long period Of years.
II Is expected that clever diplomats
will bring forward many objections to
Chinese proposals suggesting difficulties
In their application. This will cause
protracted debate. which is likely to
lessen interest in the Far Eastern pro-
gramme by centring 1t on the arms
limitation.
This possibility was accentuated to-
night by the information coming from
various sources that the delegates see
no reason for delaying final action on
the arms agreement pending settlement
Of the Far Eastern problem. This is
directly divergent from the American
view. which holds that settlement Of
the Far Eastern problem must neces-
sarily precede or accompany the agree
ment as to arms limitation.
The weakness of the Chinese pro-
posals Is plainly recognized by diplo-
matists here. They fail to present n
constructive plan for the regeneration of
China. They do not deal with the chaos
there and merely excuse those conditions
on the ground that they are the natural
results of a change OF government.
Some more definite plan will have to
come out Of the conference or It will be
failure I'm this regard. Both the
United States and Japan have their
formulas for dealing with the situation,
while Great Britain proposes to act as
the arbiter of the various plans sug-
gested. a position which will give her
tremendous influence.

in official British sources to-day that
the British delegation is welded to the
idea of the Anglo-Japanese alliance, un-
less some kind of q substitute arrange
ment Is made.
This position of the British is not re-
garded as absolute, but Is believed to
possess a possible trading value In fu-
ture negotiations. 1t is we'll known that
China regards the Anglo-Japanese pact
as a threat against her and a barrier to
a free. development Of China.
The Japanese acceptance Of the Chi
nese plan. ''in principle" which was in
formally suggested in Japanese circles
to-day, by no means carries with it the
idea of whole hearted approval. 1t Is
recalled that at the Versailles conference
"the fourteen points" OF Woodrow Will
son were accepted in principle. but sew
eral Of the points were eliminated and
the spirit Of the entire fourteen was
rudely dealt with before the conference
ended.

CHINA'S 10 POINTS
Continued from First Page.

InuS IL mas Deen sought TO harmon
lie the particular interests of China
with the general interests Of all the
world.
China is anxious 20 pay her part.
not only in maintaining peace, but In
promoting the material advancements
and the cultural developments Of all
the nations. She wishes to make her
vast natural resources available to
all peoples who need them, and in
return to receive the benefits of free
and equal intercourse with them.
In order that she may do this. it
ia necessary that she should have
every possible opportunity to develop
her political institutions IN accor-
dance with the genius and needs of
her people. China Is now contend
ing with certain difficult problems
which necessarily arise, when any
country makes radical change In
her form of government.
These problems she will be able to
solve II given the opportunity to do
so. This means not only that she
should be freed from the danger OF
threat of foreign aggression. but
that, so far as circumstances will
possibly admit. she be relieved from
limitations which now deprive her of
autonomous administrative action
and prevent her from securing ade-
quate public revenues.
China Outlines Ten Points.
In conformity with the agenda OF
the conference the Chinese Govern
ment proposes for the consideration
OF and adoption by the conference the
following general principles to be
applied in the determination Of the
questions relating to China:
I. (a) The Powers engage to
respect and observe the territorial
integrity and political and admins
trative independence of the Chinese
republic.
(b) China upon her part is pre-
pared 20 give an undertaking not
10 ALLEVIATE or lease any portion Of
her territory or littoral to any
Power
2. China. being IN full accord with
the principle Of the so-called open
door or equal opportunity for the
commerce and industry of all the na-
tions having treaty relations with
China, is prepared TO accept and ap-
ply II In oil parts OF the Chinese
republic without exception.
8. With view to strengthening
mutual confidence and maintaining
peace In the Pacific and the Far
East the Powers agree not to con-
clude between themselves any treaty
or agreement directly affecting China
or the general peace in these regions
without previously notifying China
and giving to her an opportunity to
participate.
4. All special rights. privileges,
inlnunities or commitments, what
ever their character or contractual
basis claimed by any of the Powers
in or relating 20 China. are to be de-
clared. and all such or future claims
not 80 made know. are to be deemed
null and void. The rights. privileges,
immunlties and commitments. now
known to to be declared are to be ex-
amined with view 20 determining
their scope and validity. and, II valid.
to har1nonizing them with one an
other and with the principles de-
clared by this conference.

ACCIDENTAL DEATH
 VERDICT RETURNED

Death was accidental, according to the verdict of the coroner's jury at the inquest held yesterday morning by Coroner Henry J. Sullivan over the body of James M. Thompson, who was electrocized late Thursday aft ernoon when he accidently touched 8. high voltage electric switch on the switchboard in the plant of the Ari- zona Packing company on the Tempe road. According to witnesses, the switchboard was in room on the third floor of the plant and all em- ployes of the company had been warned not to enter this room.
 Conrad Brown foreman of the saul sage room, said he saw Thompson near the door of the switchboard room and did not see him again until J. R. Rodriguez, an employe in the department, started to pull Thomp- son away from the board, but was told not to touch him. Brown said he cut off the current and assisted in an effort to resuscitate Thompson. Dr. R. W. Craig testified Thompson was dead when he reached the plant 20 minutes after the accident.
 Thompson was the brother of John L.. Thompson, the cashier of the com pany, and was born in Collinston, La, where his parents live. John Thompson left Phoenix at II o'clock last night for Collinston with the body of his brother. Funeral services will be held there.

TEXTILE MILL IN SOUTHWEST WILL EP|MACOTTON
May Be Located In Los Angeles But Will Use Local Long Staple It Is Stated-Now Contract ing Cotton

Following the registration of their incorporation here, the Pima Textile Industries announce their plans to erect a 1000- loom textile mill in the Southwest in the early future. On account of the problem of humidifi- cation in the Salt River valley, the nearest successful location will probably be Los Angeles, but the cotton absorbed by this mill will be drawn from this valley. and it is stated that the directorate of this company will be composed of local men, The Pima Textile Industries have their Phoenix offices in suite 206 and POT Monihon building where the president, Shane Morgan, is now located. MT. Morgan is a man of many years experience in the textile industry. having been connected in a sales and executive capacity with some of the large cotton mills in the East.
 The object of this company as am nounced is to erect a mill as near the place where the cotton is grown as climatic and transportation condi- tions will permit. This will over come the high cost of long freight hauls, it will save the many inter- mediate profits and it will enable the
 
 profitable market for his cotton. Mir. Morgan states that mill in Los Angeles, devoted to the manufacture of high grade cotton dress fabrics such as foiles, tissue ginghams, or gandies, etc, could very successfully and profitab1y sell the finished goods to the Western trade at much smaller cost than the Eastern mills can under existing conditions. MT. Morgan is said to be we'll posted on the manufacturing possibilities of Pima long staple cotton and it is stated that he Is now preparing to ensure a sufficient amount of avail able cotton for the first years needs of the Pima Textile Industries mill
 number of cotton growers in the valley have pledged substantial part of their cotton to be absorbed by the mill in the near future, it is declared The companys plans as announced by them will guarantee 8 minimum price on all cotton con tracted by them
 The Pima Textile Industries stated it is contracting only sufficient cot ton at this time to cover ther first years manufacture, but with the erection of additional units to theil mills. they expect to create a large steady and profitable market for g generous percentage of the long Itaple cotton grown in the Salt River ralley.
