Harding Gets PeacePrayer
Of 10, ,OOONipponW omen

From The Tr-ibune's Washington Bureau
WASHlNGTON, New. IA prayer for
peace from 10000 Japanese women was
presented to President Harding to-day
by Nine. Kali YAKIMA, a Japanese wom-
an ninety years old, who travelled here
from Japan to present the document.
She was received by the President at
noon to-day.
Nine. YAKIMA first visited the United
States in 1906 and was received by
President Roosevelt. She made the
latest journey to America from Japan
at her own expense, using money given
TO her on her eighty-eighth birthday
by former pupils.
In discussing her journey with the
newspaper men she stressed the fact
that the movement on the part of her
countrywomen was a spontaneous one.
Asked concerning the feeling of the
people IN Japan toward the American
people She replied that Japan had it's
yellow journals as we'll as the United
States. They engendered i'll feeling
among many, but the majority of Jap
anese have a desire for peace only.
Nine. Yajima expressed her unhesitat~
ing belief in the success of the coming
conference. at is my hope and the
hope of all sane people in the world"

she will have no such embarrassment
as the British, who are bound to think
In measure as an Asiatic power.
Briand's Opportunity
One possible line Of French policy
must awaken apprehension. BRAND
comes to Washington fresh from a
sbattle in the Chamber which has been
far less decisive than he hoped for.
1t would be of infinite advantage to
him ii he could carry back with him
the credit OF having played brilliant,
a profitable role in Washington. The
obvious role, urged by some Paris
journals, is that of the "Honest
Broker" bringing into harmony con-
tiicting American and Japanese inter-
ests. Always assuming that BRAND
could successfully play such role, his
political fortunes at home would be
enhanced.
But it is clear that attemp pting to
play such role would be running the
risk not alone of offending Japan, but
also the United States, for it would in
evitably be the duty of the arbitrator
TO demand concessions on both sides.
This danger has been foreseen in naany
quarters in Paris and warnings have
been issued. Yet one is bound to ac-
cept the comments Of many French
Journals, which agree that BRAND is
totally ignorant of American facts and
under very great temptation to en-
deavor to restore his shaky domestic
situation by shining foreign achieve
ment.
He May Avoid Danger
On the whole it seems likely that
Srand will avoid this danger. He
comes armed to defend the French
army establishment; he comes prepared
to Justify the policy which France ad-
heres to in the matter of a standing
army. But he does not come to de-
mand an alliance, he does not come
with any hope that such an alliance
can be brought about by an American
or Anglo-American insistence upon re-
duction of land forces.
The maximum of French expecta-
tion is an improvement in Franco
American relations, some little lessen
New-York tribune., 1921-11-08

WASHINGTON, Nov. THE French
stake in the Washington conference
is infinitely less considerable than
that of any other great power. save
only Italy. which has in reality no
stake whatsoever. The French inter-
est, moreover, is concentrated not upon
the question of the limitation of naval
armament, but upon the problem of the
Pacific
What France would like is plain.
She would regard as triumphant out
come of the conference any form of
agreement which would revive the old
special insurance treaty which bound
the United States to defend France
against any new German aggression.
But even in Paris it is clearly perceived
that the tripartite agreement is as
dead as the pragmatic sanction.
AS a consequence France will raise
the question only if she is pressed to
accept other views than her own as to
the limitation Of her land forces. And
since she is ready with this answer,
and neither the United States nor
Great Britain is prepared with any ade-
quate answer, it Is easy TO forecast
that the problem Of land forces will
be referred to some convenient com
mittee authorized to make an exhaus-
tive examination and report some time
in the remote and irrelevant future.
Seeks Americas Friendship
What, then, will France seek to do ?
Patiently she will aim at one thing:
she will seek in all ways to preserve
and expand American friendship. Her
stake in the Pacific is geogra phically
and statistically impressive, but senti-
mentally little. So far as France is
thinking in terms OF expansion, colo
NAL enterprise and economic develop
ment, she is thinking of Africa. Not
even the poss ibility of losing her India
as a result of Japanese hostility en-
gendered by French support of Ameri-
can proposals has weight at the
moment.
In word France comes TO the con-
ference with free hands and with a
profound desire to make the best of
an obvious opportunity to win Ameri-
can friendship by associating herself
with American purposes. Having no
war fleet, she will welcome any decision
which tends to reduce the sea power
Of the other great nations. Not re-
garding her Pacific possessions as vital,

until TOMORROW, when Lloyd George is
expected to communicate to the Sim
Feiners Craig's views on the COM
promise proposals.
The alternatives before Northern
Ireland are: First, acceptance of mem
bership on favorable terms in the all
Ireland Federal Assembly; second, con-
sent to plebiscite for the rectifca-
tion of the frontiers between northern
and southern Ireland, and, third. refuse
to yield anything
Sir James Craig is reported thus
tar as unaccommodating but the dorni-
mating fact of the situation is Lloyd
Georges assurance that he will not
undertake a new war against the Sim
Feln If Craig and his colleagues re-
fuse to accept the concessions offered
by the Irish republicans, which the
Premier regards as-'slifficient to safe

ing of the American criticism Of
French policy in Europe and toward
Germany, procured by whole hearted
Championship of American policy in
the conference. Apart from any ques-
ton OF the personal political fortunes
OF BRAND, France has no real reason
tor seeking to play a conspicuous part
1t there should be any real diver
gence of opinion between the British
and American representatives, ( am
pound to say l do not think the
French would either shed tears or
waste time in committing themselves
to the American side of the contro-
yersy. Anglo-French relations are far
from cordial. All over the world
french and British policies are in
conflict, and the French hostility to
Lloyd George is very intense.
vslueIess Triple Alliance
But not even Frenchman can be-
lieve that Lloyd George would be
stupid enough to give BRAND an open
ing of this sort. France is disillu-
stoned and disappointed at the out
come Of she war settlements. She
blames the British, not the Americans,
in part, think, with more regard for
onvenience than for exact accuracy Of
appraisal. But she no longer thinks
that it is possible to regain the ad-
vantages which she bartered away al
Paris for the now valueless triple alli-
ance.
We shall have the French proxy in
our own hands in the Washington
conference on all questions dividing US
from the Japanese We should have il
If there were any division between
American and British policies. There
IS not even remote possibility that
France will undertake to bargain its
vote against some American favor
The only conceivable divergence be-
tween American and French views
would come if we endeavored to i'm
pose our own program in the matter of
French military strength-and that
issue will not be raised.
After all, the Washington conference
is for France something Of a JOY ride,
No vital interest of France is involved
and there may we'll be an opportunity
for the French to do graceful favor
for the United States. Ever since the
Paris. conference and during it France
has been daily asked to concede some
thing she regarded as her due in order
to satisfy her allies. Now it is Japan's
turn, and since Japan has invariably
voted against France in the Supreme
Council French sympathy will be re-
strained.
1t there is any exception to the gen.
eral readiness of French representa-
