TO CUT out FOREIGN COURTS
Senator Lodge of the American Dele
cation to Present the Principe In
the Form of a Resolution.

Washington. Abolition Of extra
territorial rights in China, by which
various powers maintain their own
courts for trial Of their own nationals,
was agreed to in principle by the
powers represented in the Washington
conference on Pacific and Far Eastern
affairs.
The Chinese delegation presented
to the committee statement strongly
urging the abolishment Of the extra
territorial rights and sympathetic re-
sponses were said to have been voiced
by the representatives Of the other
powers.
Belief was generally expressed, how
ever, that the rights could not be
given up imm mediately in view OF con-
ditions, but that the abolition should
come as promptly as compatible with
the present situation and progress OF
China.
The committee, upon reaching the
general agreement, authorized the ap-
pointment of a subcommittee headed
by Senator Lodge, of the American
delegation, to present the principle in
the concrete form Of resolution.
The subcommittee also will work
out the details of the surrender by
the powers of their rights. This task
will include the consideration Of a
number Of treaties and for that reason
the time required for its accomplish
ment was problematical.

CONFERENCE SEEMS
TO IGNORE EUROPE:
NEWSPAPER OWNED BY GERMAN
MULTlmILLIoNAIRE MAKES
PUBLIC ITS OPINION.
PLAYING ON OUR CREDuLITY
France 10 Given Indefinite Franchise
to Continue Devastation Of tho
European Mainland.

Berlin.-Europe is being treated as
a negligible quantity at the Washing.
ton conference, in the opinion Of The
Deutsche Aligemeine Zeitung, the Or
gan of Hugo SHINES, leading German
fnanGier. It sees evidence in the cir
cumstances that curtailment Of naval
armaments have been given primary
consideration, that the issue Of land
armaments Is mot causing the confer
ence apprehension. This attitude OF
the confrees, says the newspaper,
gives France an indefinite franchise
to continue her devastation Of the Eu-
ropean mainland"
The speech of Premier BRAND, out
lining to the conference Frances need
for large army, is characterized as
purely speculation in American senti.
mentality and credulity."
1T was an act of bravura on the
part Of the political Premier Dan
zeuse," the newspaper declares, "and
it would be an insult to M. Brands
intelligence to assume that he him
self, believed a single word Of that
which he addressed to the delegates
and the galleries"
The newspaper doubts whether Pre-
mier Brands address impressed the
experts of the conference in the same
measure as it did the superficial on
lockers.
