THREE POWERS
NOW IN ACCORD
AS D RATIOS
Nippon to Retain Matsu, and
u. S. to Hold Battleships
Washington, Colorado
ONLY DETAILS REMAIN
Success of Arms Conference
Seems Assured With Set
ling of Naval Issue

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14-(By the
Associated Press)-Great Brain, the
United States and Japan were in full
accord as to PRINCIPLES tonight on a
7lap of naval limitation.
All major questions have been
whipped into shane. Technical de-
tails as to one phase held back an
official announcement.
The plan worked out bv Secretary
HUGHES. A. ]. Ralfour and Admiral
Baron Kato. in joint conferences, roi-
lows the origina} American proposa1
eycept in one resDect. That differ
ence is the agreement that Janan
NAV retain the battleship Mutsu IN
stead of the Setsu: that the United
States retain the Colorado and Wash
ington in place of the Delaware ard
North Dakota, and that Great Britain
build the approximate equivalent in
canital ships.
FORMULATION of the agreement has
been delayed by arranging details as
to the british equivalent for the Nut
SUI. The "big three" are in agreement
as to policy.
Bio To Meet AGAIN
1t appears that the British angle
might be settled by providing she re-
tain two super-Hoods and scrap three
or more old ships in their places
That element of the plan was still to
he finally decided. however, when the
''bis three" meeting today adjourned.
Further meetings are expected
1t was emphasized that the three
conferees are eager to reach full ac-
cord and that no minor technical OBJ.
jections would be allowed to stand in
the way. In view of this spirit an
announcement Of success was viewed
as to be expected at any moment.
Should proposal that Great Brit
ain retain two super-Hoods of the
four she had ordered be advanced
and found acceptable, it would be TAX
en- in naval circles as evidence of the
good relationship established durins
the conference. The plan is open, II
is said to technical objections since
the ships would be of a type not IN
cluded in the Japanese or American
navies They would combine batter
les of battleships with the speed o.
battle cruisers, but sacrifice some
thing in armor as compared to battle
| ships.
No U. S. Base At Guam
The super-Hoods would also be be
yond the replacement limit of $4,000
tons displacement proposed in the
American plan. That figure deal
with replacement building, however
! and not with shiDs under consrruc
ton, each of the three powers having
number of 10000 tonners in pros
pect. Since Great Britain has al
ready spent money on the plans ant
specifications of the ships. it seemed
improbable that proposal for thei
retention would meet objections Fl
American circles, at least. The att
tude of Japanese delegates was no

With General Approval
TENSION is RELIEVED
Fortifications Compact Will
Offset Disappointment Of
Japs Over Losing Ships
TENSION IS RELIEVED

TOXIC, Dec. 14.-(By the Associ-
ated Press) Acceptance or the naval
ratio of the arms conference " as an
nounced in a bulletin today ending
weeks of speculation and argument
in the press and conferences in polit-
ical circles. The announcement Gre
ated general satisfaction and gave
welcome relief from the tension I'M
der which the various elements had
been laboring.
Theer had been apparent for some
time desire by cabinet members to
see an end to the negotiations and
the completion of an agreement along
the lines orii nally proposed at Wash
ington, providing always that Japan's
interests were safeguar1ed. The
spirit animating the ministry was
voiced by Niscount Uchida, foreign
minister, who, in a report to the cabi-
net council yesterday, pointed out
according to the official organ of the
government, 1.-The blind persistence
Of claiming seventy per cent ratio
not only is inimical to the very
spirit OF limitation Of armament but
is detrimental to the eventual sue
cess of the conference"
While it is certain there will be
widespread disappointment, for senti
mental reasons or otherwise over the
exclusion of the battleship Mutsu, on
which SO much attention has been
centered, it is regarded in official
circles that the Importance attaching
to the Mutsu has been largely over
come by the entente and likely will
be completely eliminated by the an
ticipated Notifications compact.
THE entente is important" said
Uchida, less on account of the
phraseology of the treaty than b!
the fact that the four powers are
permitted to exchange views on the
| maintenance of peace in the Pacific
through diplomatic, instead of mill
| tary measurese."
| He said he expected another agree
mient would be concluded on the basis
of the Root resolution. The conten
ton that the quadruple entente con
travened the league Of nations cove
nant was without basis. On the con
trary, the adherence of Great Britain
France and Japan as members of the
! league of nations, added a guarantee
| for peace and enlarged the purviev
! OF the covenant.
The agreement with regard to Yal
and the inundated islands north o.
the equator was a matter for con
I graduation, he said.

death of a passenger riding on an
Illinois Central suburban train since
the roads suburban service, which
accommodates on the average $780,
900 passengers a month, since it was
established in Chicago approximately

which the engine of the northbound
train crashed through.

reply to Premier Lloyd ceorsvs lot
ter of December 5, which will be
made public officially tomorrow
definitely rejects the invitation to en-
ter the Irish Free State. 1t protests
against listers interests being in
volved in the Irish settlement with
out Ulster being consulted.
Protest is made against wnac is as
serted to be violence done to the
spirit of the 1920 act, which, 1t is oe-
clared, was based on equal rights
and privilyeges for the north and the
south. 1t is contended snat cne al
tered oath means a lower standard
of loyalty and is not acceptable to
Ulster, while the financial provisions
OF the agreement would introduce tar
if wars with England and internal
disputes in Ireland.
For these and other reasons, the
Ulster reply says Ulster will retain
her British citizenship and refuse to
subordinate herself to the Sim Fem
government.
Exception Is taken in the reply to
the boundary commission, 1t being
contended that it is without British
precedent that territory be removed
from he control of anyn gov-rnmen
without that governments sanction.
The treaty as affecting Ulster is held
to violate the kings Beirast speech
ard Premier Lloyd Georges declara-
tions in his correspondence.
The cabinet states its belief that
even the temporary placing OF Ulster
under an all-lreland parliament would
be surrendering to the Sim Fem its
claims to represent all Ireland.
