States to Limit armament
ToklO, July Z (By The Associated
Press).-The Nichi Nichi Shimbun to-
day insists that negotiations are eoine
On between Japan and Great Britain
concerning the abrogation of the
Anglo-Japanese alliance, and it ex-
presses belief that the abrogation will,
be announced shortly.
The underlying reasons for this IRE
alcted action, says the newsnaner
grow out of the likelihood of naval
arrangement with the United States
Great Britain and Japan as parties
and the undesirability of arousino The
hostility of Americans by revising The
alliance
The Foreign Office refused TODAY 10
oiscuss the subject.
Former Premier Kato. who "a closa,,,
and ofhcialiy connected with the history
of the Anglo-Japanese alliance i
quoted ~ the newspapers to-day as
saying that Japan need not continue
the alliance if there is objection on the
part of Great Britain, but that its re-
newal is desirable so long as there is
no strong objection.
According to information obtained
here the ground is being prepared for
formal negotiations later with the
United States and Great Britain re-
garding naval limitation.
Indirect conversations, considered of
the most important nature, are in
progress, and recent special meetings
of the elder statesmen in Toxic have
led to the impression that they were
participating in deliberations on naval
questions and other matters having to
do with the relations between Japan
and the United States.

LONDON, July Z (By The Associated

OF arms occurred in the House Of Com

DUBLIN, July (By The Associated
Press) .-Neither> General SHUTS nor
Sir James Craig is expected in Dublin
for the conference to-morrcw. Though
nothing has happened regarding the
nature of the negotiations, De Valera
is known to maintain the Republican
principle, his attitude being that he
was elected with Republican man
date, which only the Irish people can
vary.
1t is declared that if really large
proposals We're made he would submit
them for the determination Of the
Irish people.
De Valera in his conference with
Earl Middleton is said to have objected
to the form of the proposed London
conference, and it is considered very
probable that he may have asked for
Genaral SHUTS as chairman. 1t is con-
si.dered Improbable that De Valera or
his colleagues will go to London in re-
Spouse to Premier Lloyd Georges in
vitation unless the basis of the pro-
posed conference there is improved.
The Irish Bulletin, organ of the Dali
Elreann, tonight contradicts state
mehts in the London press alleging
cessation of reprisals and an easing of
the government pressure since Mr.
Lloyd Georges letter. The Bulletin
says that during the twelve days which
have elapsed since the letter was dis
patched regular warfare has continued

combatants without abatement, and

Says OIL Tariff Revenue
Won't Offset Higher Price

Guy Stevens, director OF the Associa@
ton of Producers IF Petroleum in
Mexico, commenting yesterday on the
statement of William n. Davis, presl-
dent Of the Mid Continent Oh and Gas
Association, in support of the proposed
tariff duties on petroleum, sad that II
the tariff went into effect the prices Of
all petroleum and petroleum products
to consumers in the United States
would rise. He also pointed out that
the $bo,OOO,000 which Mr.. Davis esti-
mated would accrue to the United
States Treatury from the tariff, was
far TOO high, because the proposed tax
on crude petroleum would yield only
$50, 0D0 900 if the volume Of imports
did not decrease in the face Of n tariff
and because fuel oil, Of which the
United States exports more than 1t
imports, would 90 direct from Mexico
tic the foreign market. Mr.. stevens
pointed out that no revenue could be
derived from this, and continued:
aft, then, the usual esults Of "a high
tariff upon imports be considered, the
revenue to be derived from such
measure can be calculated as some
thing negligible. If the quantity now
being imported continues so a. 20 yield
the maximum revenue under sueh cir
cumstances 1t will be because of a
general increase in prices, which will
permit the ifnportatioh Of such oil with
the tax added and will result in high
prices on all petroleum. products"
Mr. Stevens said the New York
market did not consume Mid Continent
oil, but depends entirely on Mexican
petroleum. None Of the industries
along the Atlantic seaboar1 and no
American merchant ships were sup
piled with oil from any American field
before Mexican oil commenced to be
imported" the statement adds.
