Conference Marks

Paris. Sept. 23.-The Washington

French public opinion regarding the
Washington conference is beginning

some question side.tracked. the pub
lie is turning its attention toward
Washington
The closer the project of the con.
ference is examined the more
French officaldom is convinced of
the worldwide significance and i'm
portance--but il is regarded prmar-
lily as question between the
United States, England and Japan.
There is widespread impression
that the question Of disarmament in
the conference is subsidiary and de-
pends upon some successful solution
Of the Pacific problem and was in
jected as bait" that the big vital
problem the conference is the future
trend of the AngloAmerican rela-
tions, apanese-American relations,
with the less important but equally
interesting question of future rela-
tions between England and France
and Japan forming the third side OF
the triangle.
Although she has wide financial
and economic interests in the whole
Far East and her colonies in Indo.
China, French statesmen recognize
that Frances role in the Pacific
question is considerably less i'm
pOrtant than that Of any of the
other three major powers There
fore they forsee that she will be
in a position to act with mediatory
influence.
An article by Jaques Vainville in
La Liberte capably sums up the
views of certain section of
French opinion regarding the Pa
cific question. He says:
1.-THE Washington conference ap-
proaches and the object is becoming
more clear. 1t is matter of high
politics and of diplomacy in new
and considerably widened domain.
The case is very simple. England
and France have accords with ia
pan. Thanks to these which envi-
saged the protection of India, the
British possessions and those of
France were not menaced during
the war. The Japanese alliance
rendered uncontestable services. !

1t Is necessary constantly to supply

age is there, and the continued opera
ton Of even small fleet of war bal

of fresh helium. Experiments at the
University Of Kansas showed that the
helium must be nearly 80 per cent

lively small explosions when mixtures
containing only IS per cent Of helium
were ignited.

States date from 1916, The year be-
fore the English government had
sought samples of gas from America
in Its search for helium for use In air
ships. The United States was not then
at war and proceeded cautiously. DIR.
r. B. Moore of the United States bu-
reau of mines, who had received the
British communication, recalled. that
Doctor Cady and his assistant d. r.
Mcfarland, had discovered the gas in
unusual quantities in the mid-conti-
nent natural gas. and later Doctor
Cady and @. w. Seibel. also of the Uni
versity of Kansas, were employed In
the plans for the construction later of
three helium plants In Texas.
Find HeIium In v. S.
Two small plants were completed in
March and May. 1918. and began the
production of helium. Their output
was not great, but 100000 cubic feet
of helium had been produced and
much of 1t had been compressed into
cylinders for shipment to France when
the signing of the armlstice made that
unnecessary. A third plant at Petro-
lia, Texas, near Fort Worth. was com
pieted few days before the armistlce.
and experimentation was continued
there after the war until halted by
diminished appropriations.

New Species Of
Fish Revealed

Leland Stanford Junior university, Cal
ifornis, noted ichthyologist.
The columns of lava burrowed
deeper into the ocean than man had
been able to penetrate, and thousands
of fish of strange and fantastic shape
and color were killed and washed up
on the beach by the tidal wave caused
by the lava flow. Among them were
found six varieties hitherto unknown
to science because their habitat was
presumably lower In the water than
science had been able to observe.
Amateur ichthyologists in Hilo, Ha-
wall, selected species which were un-
known to them and sent them to Doc
tor Jordan for examination. The re-
suit was that the six new species
were classified.
Discovery important.
81 consider the discoveries. from a
scientific viewpoint, to be among the
most remarkable and important on
record" Doctor Jordan said when he
made public the classifications here.
while he was attending the sessions
Of the Pan-Pacific Educational con-
ference.
Rhyacanthias Carlsmithi. named for
Carl A. Carlsmith of Hilo, who sent
many of the species to Doctor Jordan.

1t is a small black lantern fish, so des-
ignated because of the many luminous
glands behind the eye and along its
sides which gives the impression of
phosphorescence. 1t Is solid dull
black in color.
Peristedion Engyceros or alligator
fish of a brilliant scarlet hue which
is characterized by large bony plates
of armor.
Are Deep Water Fish.
Each of the six is deep water
Ash. All live in water of more than
$50 feet in depth, and some as deep
as 800 feet. Nothing except such
cataclysm of nature as the Alika flow
could have brought them to the sur
face, Doctor Jordan said. Rhyacan-
thias Carlsmithi ranged at least 1000
feet below the oceap's surface. he
added.
Doctor Jordan has sent to the Smith
sonian institution in Washington, d. c..

vestigation and the new classification.
