By the Associated Press.


ROME. November 16.-The newspa-
pers continue their comment on the de-
velopments at the Washington confer
ence, but Italian public men refuse to
discuss the concrete proposals advanced
by the United States government Sew
eral prominent men, when seen by the
correspondent, said they strongly IA
vored Limitation Of armaments, but
would leave any expressions on the
American proposals to the italian dele
gates in Washington.
1T remains to be seen just to what
point the dual name Anglo-American,
which is the key to the conference. will
manifest ITSELF" says the Giornale
d'Italia: ALSO to what limits Japan
will attempt to react against the dele
gates who would destroy her hidden
ocean hegemony."
The Tribuna says: president Hard
ing and Secretary Hughes have given
the verdict and passed the sentence Mr..
Hughes carries out in his proposals
the good sense of Mr.. Harding.
There Is need now to pass to the
question Of land disarmament. That
is the real European problem. The
United States. England and Japan are
sea powers, separated by oceans, but
Europe is comprised of land powers.
Worse yet, Europe is France and
Germany-'these are lions"

HUGHES PLAN PANACEA

Declares q. S. Has Found Method
of Checking Wars by Discour-.

LAKEWOOD. N. j., November 16.-
Belief that adoption of the American
plan for a naval holiday as laid be-
fore the armament conference would
prove to be a panacea for the nations
commercial ills as well as a preventa-
tive for future wars was expressed by
Senator Walter E. Edge of this state
in a speech last night before the AS
sociation of National Advertisers.
The United States. Senator Edge de-
clared, had found the method Of
checking future wars in the simple
and elementary process of discourage
ing preparations for war" Never in
American history, he added. had there
been a greater display of national
unselfishness than marked the pro-
posals made by Secretary Hughes.
Since the greatest burden of Ameri-
can business today was taxation, he
continued, the gradual elimination of
naval armament, with the consequent
reduction in taxes, would restore
business prosperity in terms equal to
the lifting of taxes.

THE HAGUE, November 15.-The
American proposals for drastic limi-
tation of naval armament presented
in Secretary Hughes: speech at the
Washington conference have reused
the Dutch public from its former
state of apparent indifference toward
that gathering. The public attitude.
which was notably skeptical. so far
as 1t found 0kDRoasion before the
opening Of ne oo01orsnce, has be-
come optimistically expectant.
Nearly all the Dutch newspapers
are commenting enthusiastically upon
the opening developments of the con-
ference and express confidence in its
success.
The special correspondent Of the
Nieuwe Courant Of Rotterdam cables
his newspaper from Washington:
'.fhe United States has scored q
considerable advantage in the Amer
ican-Japanese diplomatic. game, and
Secretary Hughes has made an ex-
cellent use Of the opportunity for
open discussions. After the Hughes
speech nobody can say, that limita-
ton Of armament has only been a
pretext to. get together the delegates
n axder to discuss Pacific problems. !"

LONDON, November 16-Former
Premier Asquith, leader of the liberal
party. in a speech here today declared
1t was with unspeakable relief that the
people Of England had read the ac-
counts Of what had occurred in WASH

He declared that in the course Of

the last three years. The proposals
advanced by the American government,
he added would be received with una
nimity by all the nations Of the world
as providing a means Of escape from
the intolerable burden Of armament
which the world had had to bear.

On several occasions during the
proceedings Of the arms confer
ence yesterday the audience rose to
its feet in enthusiastic approval.
In every case it was Gen. Pershing
who set the example, followed hrst
by the members of the American
advicory committee, and imme-
diately thereafter BY the remaind-
er of those present.

not overdone, neither was 1t check
ed. Premier BRAND got, perhaps,
the biggest hand, closely followed
by Vice Admiral kato. The sonor-
BUSINESS Of MIR. Brands voice and
the beauty Of his diction made his
utterances peculiarly effective,
even though most of those present
could not understand q word.
In q pause following one dra-
matte phrase came a generous and
general burst Of applause. Even
those who could not understand
the words apparently appreciated
the fervor and sincerity OF the
great F'renchman.

of the Associated Press.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
TOXIC. October 29.-Japan's last
chance to escape bankruptcy as the
result Of her Colossal naval aggran-
dizement scheme" is for this nation to
unite under the leadership of Presi-
dent Harding of the United States in
an endeavor to make the Washington
conference brilliant success, accord
ing to statement made by Yukio
Ozaki. perhaps the foremost fighter
made this declaration at peace
meeting called in Kobe under the
auspices of the Ozaki Ashi.
Japan is in a financial dilemma,
and national bankruptcy Is possible in
case her colossal naval aggrandize-
ment scheme is carried out" Mr. Ozaki
said. 1.-THE Washington conference is
the last chance in which Japan can
hope for a Limitation of arms, thereby
to insure lasting world peace.
Depends ON Enthusiasm.
whether the conference will sue
coed depends largely upon the enthu-
siasm and determination of the ma
tions sitting at the meeting. In view
Of the fact that the future Of this
nation is SO vitality involved in this
conference, the whole nation. both
government and people. should be
united to help achieve the brilliant
success of the conference.
'Don't camouf1age, but show your
sincerity and the conference will be
successful" Mr.. Ozaki continued
'Since the end of the great war a
phenomenal psychological change
among the nations is shown by their
antipathy toward an aggressive and
military nation. as such is believed
to be an international menace. To
make the whole world realize the
sincerity and fairness of Japan, 1t is
highly advisable for her to withdraw
her troops from Siberia as quickly as
possible.
More Ships the Weaker.
America, whose natural resources
are abundant and whose materials are
produced without limit, can expand
her navy at will. When Japan builds
one battleship American can. il she
desires, build several. The more
ships Japan builds. the weaker Ja-
pan becomes, when compared with
America.
"The Washington conference will
be successful if America, Great Brit
ain, Japan and other nations sit to-
gether sincerely" Mr.. Ozaki con-
cluded.

the solution would take time, it il
thought.
Many Questions in View.

Many Questions in View.
All these and other similar Ques-
tions, together with such matters as
economic adjustments, unemployment
caused by limiting armament and cut
ting personnel, are expected to occupy
weeks of discussion, and the far east
ern question, centering about China,
is expected to be even more complex
and involved.
The time element has been men-
toned but little in connection with
the conference, but the cost of keep
ing great numbers Of highly trained
technical advisers, not to mention
statesmen. here in Washington is
staggering, and to governments still
carrying great war debts it is an item
that really counts, and the hope has
been expressed from several sources
that a happy conclusion can be ac-
complished this side Of four or five
months. However. as one British ad-
wiser said. 1.-THE price of one big bat
tie cruiser would just about pay for
