Japs Want "Mutsu"
Retained in NaVY

Toxic, Nov. 29-CBy A. P.)-The
Japanese navy department hopes to
have the battleship Mutsu included
in Japan's restricted navy, said Vice
Admiral Kenji Ide, vice minister of
the Japanese navy, to the Associated
Press today.
Other differences Of views on WHICH
Admiral Baron Kato, member of the
Japanese delegation at Washington
and Secretary of State Hughes arc
comforting, he declared, were merely
the outgrowth of technical differences
regarding the methods of estimating
the relative strength Of the American
and Japanese navies.
These differences are not insur-
nountable. in the opinion of Vice
Admiral Ide.
Asked whether there were serious
antagonism in Japan to Mr.. Hughes
naval holiday proposal he answered
he had not observed such antagon-
ism. He said he was cognizant of
Admiral Kato's counter proposal on
behalf Of Japan. but he was not at
liberty to elucidate upon Japan's
contention.

Japs Come Out Flat
(Corti1ucd from PAGE One)

oons to tie arms conference. Upon
its solution hangs the fundamental
principle Of the American naval lint
tation proposal. the 'flve-fv vc-thrce
capital ship ratio
The experts were. substantially in
agreement as to the accuracy of esti-
mates of naval strength of each power
originally submitted by the American
conference group if the American plan
of including all ships actually under
construction III arriving at the ratio
was followed. The Japanese experts.
however, insisted TO the last that this
was not the proper basis Of calculation,
proposing instead to disregard all
ships now building by either power in
determining relative naval strength.
The plenafy delegates of the two
powers will continue the discussion
from this point. illuminated by such
light as the studies of the experts have
been able to throw on the technical
questions involved.
Firm determination of the American
elegation to insist upon the fve-five-
three ratio and inclusion Of ships
building in any estimate of naval
strength was reiterated tonight on au-
thority. The purpose of the Japan
ese delegation was not disclosed.
Since no call for an executive ses-
sion of the conference delegates or for
further meetings of the experts was
issued, it was assumed that an attemp.
to settle the point by informal inter
changes between the American and
Japanese delegates themselves was ir
progress and might last several days.
While there was no vote taker today
in the subcommittee of experts, the
British and American groups were in
full accord that the Japanese proposal
was not sound and that it cor stituted
q question of policy, not of fact. 1t
was this situation that ended the ex-
pertss deliberations, for they were
charged only with examination of
facts, not with the shaping of poli-
cies The delegations alone may for
! mul&te these and the matter went back
to them.
Admiral Baron Kato. active leader
Of the Japanese delegation, refrsed to-
night to throw any light on what his
group planned to do. In view of the
authoritative statement from the
American delegation that the 10 per
| cent. ratio suggestion, or the Japanese
proposal as to the basis for calcu1at-
, ing capital ship strength, would not
/ be entertained, it appeared likely that
compromise offers from the japanese
group were in order.

Army Won moral
Victory" Against
Navy, SAYS Weeks

Washington, Nov. 30--Admiratlon
for the "gameness and indomitable
spirit" of the Army football team
which was defeated by the Navy
team in their annual game at the
Polo Grounds in New York, last Sat
urday. was expressed by Secretary of
War Weeks today in a letter to Brig.
Gen. Douglas Macarthur. superinten-
dent of the United States Military
Academy at West Point.
In his letter, Secretary Weeks said
that to have played as the Army
team did on Saturday and against
such real odds, constitutes to my
mind moral victory" He added
he would rather have been a witness
to their defeat under such circum-
stances than to their victory against
less worthy opponent. The secre-
tary asked that Gen. Macarthur con-
vey to the members of the Army
football team my admiration for
their spirit"

DE Valera Says
Irish Stand Same
as Four Years Ago

Ennis, Ireland, Nov. 30--(By A. PO
-Eamon De Valera. today delivered
an address in the town hall here in
which he declared if peace in Ireland
was not brought about, it would not
be because there is not the will on
the part of Ireland to make it, but be-
cause those opposed to us in Ireland
do not want to make peace with us.
Il may tell you," Mr.. De Valera
continued, that we stand today, no
matter what other peoples say, exact
" where we Stood and for the prin-
ciples for which we stood four years
ago. We have gone as far as we can
go, consistent with those principles
for peace; we cnnot, and viii not, go
any further. If we go further. II
would be for us to betray those prin-
| ciples which have been fought for by
generations of Irishmen for the past
900 or 700 years"
Mr.. De Valera had an enthusiastic
reception. He spoke with great firm
ness when he declared that all the
power of the Empire cannot break
the spirit Of one true nation"
1--WE counted the cost four or five
years ago" he continued, land YOU
who have had the experience Of those
years 'assuredly will not suggest that
anybody having charge os the direc-
ton of affairs or who hold the stand
ard you intrusted to them, should for
a moment give away our principles
I We stand on the rock of truth and
principle and will face the future
with the same confidence and know
ledge as We faced our work four years
ago"

Hopes Darken for
Further Parleys
on Irish Peace

London. Nov. 30-(By A. P.)-All
government business is giving way to
the gravity Of the Irish situation.
express the feeling that only a mir
acle can avert the collapse of the
conference and a renewal Of warfare.
1t had been intended to hold q cab
inet council tonight to consider Ger
man reparations in connection with
the visit of DR.. Walter Rathenau, but
this had to be postponed in order to
permit the special cabinet committee
dealing with Irish affairs to hold a
sitting. Lord Birkenhead, due to
speak at a political meeting in Liver
pool, was obliged to stay in London.
He sent message of apology ex-
planning his absence was owing to
grave public affairs" @s-s-,-
Premier Lloyd George also wired to
the meeting. explaining that Lord
Birlsenhead's presence in London was
'imperatively demanded by the pres
'cnt position of the Irish negotiations" !"
: A spokesman of the Sim Fein de-
clared this evening that there was no
intention on the part of the Sim Fein
to alter its attitude regarding either
the unity OF Ireland or allegiance to
the crown. Representatives of the
Sinn Fein took pains to deny formal
ly the statement OF London paper
that, first. the Sinn Fein had con-
sented to agree to plan whereby

Rodgers Report Will
Not Clog Arms Meet

Washington, Nov. 30-(By A. P.)-
A report dealing with the advisability
of the proposed ten year naval holi-
day with special reference to the in
dustrial and economic questions in
volved, was adopted today by the ad
visory committee of the American
delegation. 1t. will be presented to
Secretary Hughes tomorrow.
Chairman Sutherland Of the gen.
eral committee in announcing ap-
proval of the report prepared by
Read Admiral Rodgers, said he could
give no indication as to its nature.
1t is understood, however. that 1t
deals particularly with conditions
which might result from the suspen-
sion of warship building activities.
At a former meeting it was declared
the committee as a whole stood solid
ly behind the American naval pro-
posals and members explained to-
night that the Rodgers report was
not TO be construed as meaning a
turning back on the broad principle
Of armament reduction.

an allegiance (which ought to be sat-
isfactory to any British minister. who
is not purely a formalist:" third, the
appointment of a boundary commits
sion to delimit the present political
and religious frontier of Ulster in
order to distribute the populations
between the north and the south on
a more satisfactory basis.
Regarding the suggestion that the
government will propose a new
scheme to Ulster. the Sim Fein dele
gates say they are not concerned with
it and refuse to share the govern
ment's responsibility for it. There
was another session this evening OF
the British delegates but nothing was
forthcoming as a result Of it.
"Whatever the result, Mr.. Lloyd
George will go to Washington"
Downing street official said tonight.
Respecting this it was stated at
Sim Fein headquarters that "such
move on the part of tho premier
| would not be viewed with patience or
without suspicion, for the reason that
II Irish h-Ameriean support was weak
ened in consequence of the premiers
visit to the United States, the Sim
Fein might be forced to modify It's
demands. upon which it feels now IN
position to persist"
The impossibility of maintaining
the truce long after the breakdown OF
the conference is realized. The view
expressed by the Sim Feiners is that
there would he no formal denuncia-
ton OF the truce by either side but
that it would quickly decay"
1t is pointed out that such provoca-
tive acts on both sides as have been
occurring recently in Ireland would
probably be regarded as definite
breaches of the truce and cause its
speedy collapse il it were not for the
fact that the conference still has be-
ing. When the conference finally
fails. such acts must inevitably lead
10 renewed warfare.
