represented.
The Pacific problem admittedly is of grave
international Importance, and until some agree
ment has been reached by the nations it will re-
main a potential cause for friction and war.
Eventual disarmament is possible only after the
elimination of the causes of war, and so long as
the Pacific problem remains unsolved the pos
sibility of war will always be present. Its solu-
ton manifestly involves the interests of all
countries which are in that quarter of the globe,
and so their views on the settlement must be
included in any program that seeks to adjust
that problem permanently.
The hint that Lloyd George may be able to
attend the parley is interpreted as another heart
ening development of the proposed conference.
The whole world hopes that the nations will ap-
proach the conference with open minds and a
genuine desire to remove one of the most burden
some factors in the tax systems of every nation.
The nations cannot go on increasing taxes indefi-
nitely to pay for war costs in one form or an
other
Disarmament will not mean the total suspen-
sion of the military and naval establishments
This cannot be expected as a result of the con-
ference But if the powers are able to agree on
curtaiment of naval expenses they will be tax

MORE IN EVIDENCE
THAN REPUBLIC FLAG
(By Associated Rress)


BERLIN, Oct. 10.--The black, red
and gold flag of the German republic
is less in evidence than any other of
the dozen or more official emblems
which wave from houses of every
town and city of the country. The
most popular banner is the black,
white and red of the former empire.
In some provinces and in a number
of towns the republican FLAG has new
ere been flown, is not recognized. and
cannot be purchased.
Even in Berlin seat of the govern

pire outnumber those of the republic,
which appear generally to be restrict
ed TO necessary official use or to pop
ular demonstrations in favor of the
new regime.
The red flag of the Communists US
ually flies side by side with the re
publican colors during any popular
parades or manifestations.
Situation Causes Agitation.
In some quarters this situation has
caused agitation against monarchical
propa gandists and here and there has
resulted in fights between the police
and adherents of the monarchy or be-
tween monarchists and republicans,
but on the whole it has passed I'M

British Colonials to Attend

The American government has expressed a
cordial satisfaction over the decision of the Brit
ish government to include representatives of its
overseas dominions in its delegation to the inter-
national conference on the limitation of arma-
ments. Canada, Australia and South Africa, it
is understood, will be represented.
British dominions in the Pacific are vitality
interested in the problems of that quarter of the
globe which will be discussed in the Washington
conference
Australia and New Zealand have had clashes
with Japan over Japanese immigration and are
apprehensive of the designs which the mikado
has on the Asatic mainland. They fear that
Japan may eventually obtain dominion of the
Pacific, which would jeopardize their own poit-
ical and commercial welfare, they believe
America would be showing poor judgment if
it frowned on the presence of the representatives
of these dominions. The prompt denial of a
rumor to this effect shows not only our willing.
