the preliminaries of barter, none of
the waiting for offers and counter
proposals, we have laid on the table
magnificent bid for peace. 1t is a
bid so high that none, we think, will
ask for more; but it is not BID so
high that our own people will be-
grudge paying it, for they know what
it's acceptance will mean.
England's acceptance in principle
was to be expected. We who had
read of the eagerness of Great Bri-
tain to enter the conference could not
doubt what her answer must be. Her
people, even more than our own, have
tired of the burden of navies that
grow costlier each year. Her people
know, as we know, that dreadnoughts

the rich but in the price ofRlhe poor's

justifable war. But they must well

defense without reducing their chanc-

America says to England, "For every

answer.

HUGHES PROPOSAL
GRIPS THE WORLD.

While half the world was still won-
dering whether such good news as the
Hughes programme could be true,
wondering whether anything in inter-
national relations nowadays could be
so sudden, simple and unselfsh. Great
Britain reached out to grasp at once
this great opportunity. The an
nouncement that Mr.. Balfour will
accept in principle" should end any
doubt that may hnger in the mind of
World Which has been fooled by mir
ages so often in the last three years.
And, with Great Britain accepting our
solution of the armament problem,
there should be no hesitation on the
part Of those nations which, in en-
bracing the proposal of the United
States, will give up comparatively
little and gain comparatively much.
When we speak of it as q proposal
IF the United States we mean that
while it came from the mind and the
lips of Secretary Hughes as the
spokesman Of President Harding's
Administration, it comes from the
heart of this country. If there were
an election today upon the question
of sratifying the Hughes programme
the opposition would not carry sin
gle State; probably not single coun-
ty. For America, while itself startled
for a moment at the splendid audacity
of the programme, Immediately real
lied that the Secretary of State had
with one bold stroke crystallized what
had been in the American mind and
heart.
Not since the world heard, three
years ago, that the day and hour of
the armistice had been fixed has
there been. such a sweep of JOY. "The
optimism in Washington" said wit
ty diplomat on Sunday, ''is terrify-
ing" He could have found that same
optimism in every corner Of Ameri-
ca. He will find it too in every con-
tiaent of the world when the people
of that continent realize that the
challenge of the United States must
be taken up by the other powers.
Why should not the world be optimis-
tie when it sees America, through Mr..
Hughes, accomplishing more in half
an hour toward the elimination of
bloodshed than has ever been accom-
plished in all the droning hours of
the Hague Tribunal or the League
of Nations.
With the magnanimity which pro-
ceeds only from the great America
has offered to sacrifice far more IN
the interest of world peace and econ
omy than it asks the other great soa

Finance and Markets

NEW YORK, March 1.-The stock market was under occasional seIlnS pressure today, many leaders recording extreme declines of one to four points, while several speculative issues sui fered to a-greater degree.
 Much lost ground was recovered later on the support accorded favorltes in the oil. equipment, motor and food divisions Features of the rebound embraced General Asphalt Mexican Petroleum, General Electric, Stude- baker Chandler and American Sugar Atlantic Gulf issues were again the most disturbing element, being estab- lished in connection with rumors which dealt mainly with the company's at tempt at financial rehabilitation.
 New Haven was another weak fea- ture, selling at a new minimum for the current movement to accompaniment of reports which bore on the question of receivership. In general, the day g movement indicated that the recent rally rested largely on technical con- siderations such as might logically re- suit from an overextended short posi- ton. Sales, S25, 600 shares. Eliminat- ing the money market, which repeated the easier trend of the previous day, deyeIopments of the session offered little incentive for resumption of the constructive effort For example, price advances by independent steel pro- ducers were offset by another very substantial increase in the number of idle freight cars.
 Mixed conditions ruled in the broader and more active bond market. Liberty issues were firm. but some of the do- mestic rails and foreign war flotations were disposed to react Total sales, par value, S11,350000.
