CANADIANS COMMENT
ON CONFEREES' ACTS

LONDON, July $50 much con-
fusion has resulted from conflicting
statements as TO what has really TAX
en- place in connection with the re-
newal Of the Anglo-Japanese alli-
ance that a. statement Of the precise
position, CLEANED from authoritative
sources. seems necessary.
Briefly, the situation is as fol-
lows:
Last July the British government
informed the League Of Nations that
the treaty with Japan would be
adopted with the terms OF the league
That declaration appears TO have
been accepted by the dCminiOns and
indeed by the ritish foreign office
as a denunciation Of the alliance. It
was with this understanding that Ar
thur Meighen, premier Of Canada,
entered the conference and made his
case against renewal Of the treaty.
He was under the impression that
unless that alliance was renewed it
would lapse on July 10.
Lord CurzOn and A. J. Balfour, who
preceded the Canadian premier in
statements on the subject were un-
der similar impressions. Mr.. Neigh
en- Intercepted the British secretary
for foreign affairs but Lord Curzon
assured him that thu note TO the
League Of Nations constituted de-
nunciation and that it was wholly a
question Of letting the alliance lapse
or entering into new one.

and reciting prayers for the success
of the conference. The unionist rep
resentatives met with a cordial re-
ception from those assemb led.
Members Reticent.
The members OF the conference
were reticent regarding what took
place at the meeting, but points of
agreement were reached on the
financial question and the disadvan-
tage Of partition. Popular sentiment
is very hopeful OF peace.
