gethcr for Fcllowship's Sake,
He Tells Chicagoans

CHICAGO, Nov. 3.-Expressing the
conviction that Great Britain and the
United States must stand together "for
fellowship's sake" Admiral Earl David
Beatty, in an address before the Com
mercial Club here tonight, asserted
that if the two great English speaking
nations did keep together they had
nothing to fear in the world.
Speaking of the coming Conference
on Limitation Of Armament, Admiral
Beatty said:
at is full of hope and desire that
great things shall come out of it. II
is impossible to think that representa-
tives of all the great countries, which
are going to assemble, and will sit
there and discuss the various questions
frankly and honestly, will be unable to
find solution"
Referring to the part of the British,
navy in winning the World War, Ad.
miral Beatty asserted that England
must also have a large fleet in peace
times, pointing out that if England
were cut off from the rest Of the world
"she would be starved into submission
in six weeks time"
Admiral Beatty and his party will
depart tomorrow for Philadelphia.

pact rs for hundred years has pre-
served peace on a frontier where con-
tcntions could easily be created be

q Great. Britain Is concerned?
Japan Has Nothing to
Fear From United States
AS to Japan, what has The to fear
from her oldest and most constant
friend, the United States, who has
never infringed upon or disputed her
complete and equal sovereignty as ma
tion? If the American people have not
approved Of Japan's assuming as a
right the substitution Of herself for
Germany in The ShantunE peninsula,
and have frankly expressed their judg-
ment in this matter, that should not
be regarded as an offense; for it is not
only morally automatic that the priv
leges, whatever they were, which Ger
many extorted from China, not being
the rightful possessions of China's de-
spoiler, do not pass by conquest because
Germany was forced to renounce them,
but Japan has now completely justified
the American attitude by recently pro-
posing to restore to China what Ger
that further agreements are expected
on the part Of China, it would be pre-
mature to condemn the proposal Of
Japan before its entire meaning is un-
derstood. If its purport is that China
must make new and valuable conces-
sions in exchange for what are In fact
already China's indisputable rights. the
claim would, indeed, be preposterous; (;
but if, on the other hand, China is
asked to agree upon some reasonable
compensation for the services rendered
by Japan in securing the expulsion Of
the Germans from Shantung the de-
mand might be in effect only fair
settlement Of just obligation.
What is Of the highest importance
at the present time is that the tepdency
toward sensationalism should not ac-
centuate distrust of one another in any
of the countries to be represented in
the conference. It is easy to make un-
proved accusations, and it is natural
also to resent them. The greatest mis-
fortune that could happen 1T this time
Would be the conviction on the part
of any Of the powers that a basis of
mutual confidence does not exist and
that some one is to be arraigncd before
the bar Of public opinion as q culprit.
On the other hand, there is room,
and, indeed, necessity, for 9 candid
discussion Of realities and policies, and
it should be thorough. There are GER
tain subjects that must be understood
in manner to satisfy public opinion
in all the countries interested. Per-
haps the most important Of these is
the Anglo-Japanese Alliance. If i'm
perialism cannot be tolerated in the
control Of the Pacific Ocean when prac-
ticed by single nation, what must be
said of it as a joint operation on the
part Of the two most potent maritime
empires in the world, possessing navies
which, eonjoined, would more than
double that Of the United States? Must
this country, confronted by such an
alliance, look to its safety by adopting
a double standard program?

with every note, every jangling vibra-

Yet the sounds originated in San Fran

he stood for an audience 5000 miles

1T was the formal dress rehearsal of
the mechanism by which President

There was long reading Of
speeches from the stage of the amphi-

Weeks Fears Precedent
In Woodfll Promotion
Expected to Indorse Honor for
Sergeant if Safeguards Are
Inserted i'm Congress Bill


Frons The Tributes Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-Secretary of
War Weeks has not fully decided on
the attitude he will adopt toward the
bill to be introduced in the House by
Representative Woodruff asking that
Sergeant Samuel Woodfill be commits

Sergeant Woodfill is the soldier named
by General Pershing as having per
formed the most conspicuous feat of
bravery in the American Expeditionary
Forces. Woodfll wears the Congress
sional Medal of Honor and other deco
rations. The Secretary of War is un.
derstood to feel that as far as Woodfill
is concerned no doubt exists as to the
merit of the award. "He deserves we'll
Of his country" said Mr.. Weeks, "and
the question is what the country can
do for him.
The War Department feels that the
passage Of measure granting a COM
mission to Sergeant Woodhll would es-
tablish a precedent which might we'll
be invoked by men who hold the D. S. c.
medal for gallantry in action. War
Department officials believe that Secre-
tary of War Weeks undoubtedly will
indorse the measure provided it is
worde6 in such a manner that the War
Department will not be obliged to grant
such commissions to other soldiers for
the asking.
