WASHINGTON. March 1.-THE
four power Pacific treaty was framed
around the conference table from
drafts submitted by Secretary OF
State Hughes. Arthur ]. Balfour and
Ambassador Shidehara OF Japan.
Il Is a composite picture OF the
drafts presented by these leaders.
No one man wrote the pact as has
been charged IN the Senate. although
the treaty In It's final form more
nearly resembles the draft prepared
by Shidehara.
Its formation was prompted by
Anglo-Japanese suggestions that a
new treaty be drawn to scrap the
Anglo-Japanese alliance.
This Is the answer to the aues-
tion who wrote the four-power
pact?-now the center OF the stormy
debate in the Senate which threatens
TO menace ratification OF the treaty.

At the time when DeMille began
