SECRET PACT
DenOunces Combination as
Detrimental to Americas
Interests.

Irrevocable hostility to the League of
Nations distrust of Great Britain's
friendship to the United States and de-
nunciation Of the secret understanding
between England, Japan. France and
Russia, by which certain islands Of the
Pacific including zap, were granted to
Japan, marked the address of Senator
Harry $. New to members of the Service
Club. at the weekly luncheon Of that or
ganization at the Hotel Lincoln today.
Il am irrevocably opposed to the entry
Of this country into the League of Ma
tiOns," Senator New said, because l be
lieve it to be a lasting detriment to
the interest of the United States This
Nation must be strong enough to look
out for its own interest regardless of
the attitude of other countries. l have
heard IT said that Great Britain can be
depended upon to protect the interest or
the United States. 1t certainly does not
look as II that country had our inter
ests greatly at heart when IL entered
into a secret undertaking with France,
Russian and Japan by which Japan was
granted the Isle Of zap and other islands
that lie directly in the path between
this country and the Philippines. To-
day Japan is busy fortifying those Is
lands and the cable between this country
and the Philippines touches zap which
means that If Japan has that island it
can scrutinize every cable message pass
ing between this country and our Eastern
possessions.
Il will not say that there VIII be war
between this country and Japan for l
hope that such an event never will come
about but ] do say that there is con-
iict between the interests of the United
States and Japan and that the secret
understanding between other countries
and Japan put control of same of these
interests in the hands of Japan
Senator New denounced the "hyphen-
ated American" saying: IF man comes

American he should be put on a boat and
sent back to the country from which he
came, and no time sheuld be lost about
