Being thus despoitc, America will not even ad- init slight amendment proposed by Japan. Can Japan rest assured as she prepares to put the proposals into practice? Some years afterward America, for her own convenience. may begin to expand her navy. It is plain that recognition of Americas proposals will be filled with serious dangers in the future.
 JAPAN IN PACIFIC
 Again, regarding the quadruple agreement, while some people main tain that it Is an extension of the Anglo-Japanese Alliance and con- gratulations, saying the peace of the world has been saved, the scope of the agreement is confined to the ter ritorial possessions on the Pacific Ocean. Japan, except for Yap or the other small islands in its neighbor- hood. which cannot be fortified, has mo other territory on the Pacific. Even without such agreement there is no menace to peace which Japan fears on the Pacific. But now that Japan has joined the agreement, Japan will be called upon to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the possessions of England, America and France in case of need. The Ameri- can possessions in the Pacific have been acquired by aggression or an nexation or robbery Japan will be called upon to protect them for America without any compensation and she will be obliged to expect for enemies somewhere in the world Why should Japan congratulate her self? The knglc-Japanese All lance was at least ar instrument for the object of protecting the two nations against dangers which might menace them. The -quadruple agreement only makes Japan slave of England md America. We do not see the slight est significance that it will guaran- tee the safety of Japan"

ALIVE AT 5:3o THIS AFTERNOON
 ROME, Jan. 21.-At 12:15 o'clock this morning Professor Battistini held out t| little hope that Pope Benedict would survive the night.
 During his delirium the pontiff re- sisted efforts of his physicians to his heart action and expressed de- sire to rise and perform his usuai duties.
 Immediately after the morning con ference, physicians said the pope had had quiet spell, with respiration less irregular. He expressed desire to rest and slept an hour or two.
 At ? o'clock this afetrnoon the physicians said his condition was hopeless and Monsignor Pizzarbo, un- der secretary of state, declared the only hope was in prayers of Catholics throughout the world, as medical sci ence had exhausted every resource at it's command.
 At noon today the pope was uncon- scious and delirious, but physicians expressed the belief that life might be prolonged until late in the afternoon.
 The pope was still alive at 5:3O this afternoon.

TOXIC, Jan. 21.-Checking up on the results of the Washington confer enca from the angle of Japan, the Japanese press and a section of the public fail to see that Japan profted by the meeting proposed by the Unit ed States. While the Yorozu Shim- bun and the Kokumin are the most outspoken, as is customary, against sition even on the part of the Jiji and the Nichi Nichi, two most con- servative journals, to doubt the bene- fits that may come to Japan as re- suit of the meeting.
 AS an evidence of the feeling of one section of the public opinion of Japan may be quoted the 'Yorozu, which says as follows:
 "As the Washington conference is now drawing to it's close, we begin to entertain fears in regard to the future of Japan, nay in regard to the permanent peace of the world. Our fears are all the more intense be- cause of the abstract rather than con- crete results of the Washington con- ference.
 AMERICAS GREAT NAVY
 "For instance, if America had not built her big navy with Japan as the objective there would never have been any need of concerning our selves about limitations of arma- ments. But America built one war ship after another, thereby menac- ing Japan and compelling Japan 'to spend money out of her impover- ished treasury. When Japan was about to have a sufficient naval strength to cope with America America suddenly summoned the na- tions to conference on limitation o1 armaments. The proposals made In the conference have been made to suit America. The vessels proposed to retain or to scrap are altogether meaningless from the Japanese point of view. For instance, the Mutsu is a battleship already built. Yet Amer lea insisted that she be scrapped (al- though 1t has been reported that she
