FAST WORK IS
DONE ON FAR
east PROBLEMS
Siberian Question Disposed
of-Hope Seen For
Other Settlements
ARMY CUT OPPOSED
President Does Not Want Country $
Defenses too Seriously Impaired by
Economy Policy.

Washington, Jan. 24.-The Far
| Eastern Committee moved rapidly To-
day toward the end of the agenda, dis,
posing of the Siberian question and
| the question of inundated islands IN
the Pacific and approaching close to
disposition of the question of Far
Eastern electrical communications:
That leaves, as the main business OF
the committee, action on few Chinese
ihangovers including British proposal
today to stop shipment of arms to
China.
While this committee was burrying
to the end of it's work reports spread
through Washington that the Shan
tung settlement, so frequently pre-
dicted and so long delayed, was i'm.
minent, and the reports were given a
certain authenticity by the spokesman
of the American delegation, who said
that though there was only bare
chance of settlement during the day,
the differences now are so narrow
that agreement may be expected at
any time.
President Harding threw little
spice into Conference talk by letting
it be known during the day that he
is opposed to any further drastic cut
in the size of the American Army. II
was reduced last year from 100000 to
10000. Mr.. Harding does not object
to some slight decrease, but he is OPP
posed to another heavy cut. His posi-
tion is regarded as an Endorsement of
that of General Pershing, who warned
Congress a few days ago against be-
ing carried away by "pacifist senti-
ment." i
f. The. situation in Far Eastern At
fairs in general and in Shantung
plus belief that the Pacific fortified
tions matter may be adjusted at any
moment, if, indeed, there is not al
ready an understanding among the
delegates, gave fresh force to the
thought that all of the remaining
business of the Conference is being
brought to a conclusion simultane.
ously.
Measured confirmation was found
in intimations from American dele
gates that one plenary session, to act
upon treaties embodying the various
agreements may be sufficient to con-
clude the business of the Conference
1t was suggested by one of the prin-
cipal American delegates that if every
thing could be handled in one meet
ing, by waiting two or three days
there was no reason why it should not
be done. This makes possible a gen.
eral cleanup plenary session in 1C
days or two weeks, allowing time tc
put the treaty drafts into acceptable
! form.
! The action on Siberia consisted OF
adoption of resolution putting into
the record the statement made yes
! tcrday by Baron Shideharra disclaim
ing for Japan any intention to hole
Russian territory in Eastern Siberia
and Sakhalin, which her troops now
occupy, and statement made today
by Secretary Hughes, reiterating the
American opposition to the presence
OF the Japanese troops. The Amer
leans regard this as clinching the
japanese promise to get out of Rus
sian territory.

Fairfax Herald Makes Editorial Com
or Allo~.J ns,or,a Evil

Fairfax Herald Makes Editorial Com
ment on Alleged Divorce Evil
The Fairfax Herald has the fol-
lowing to say editorially about the
alleged divorce evil in Alexandria:
In an effort to attract attention to
itself sensational Washington paper
is attacking the City of Alexandria
and Judge Robinson Moncure, of the
Alexandria Corporation Court on the
subject of the number of divorces
granted in Alexandria in the past year
and on the ease with which divorces
can be obtained there. The paper
charges that the bar association of
Alexandria has protested against the
reappointment of Judge Moncure 20
succeed himself, when the fact is the
bar has practically unanimously en-
dorsed Judge Moncure for re-appoint-
ment.
The attack is vicious one, and
without foundation, as Judge Moncure
has to follow the law as laid down in
the code of Virginia. for the grant
ing of divorces. The Herald cannot
but acknowledge that the Virginia
divorce laws are entirely too lax, and
the legislature, now in session, should
amend them so as to make divorces
impossible in Virginia, except for the
gravest of causes. or better still make
divorces impossible in the State.
Alexandria, from its proximity tc
Washington. is the divorce dumping
grounds of that city, and the sensa.
tional sheet that is attacking the
good name of our sister city would dc
we'll to look at home for the underly.

up their resources and prevent their

The President was asked whether
the maintenance of large armies by
European nations prejudices the de-
cision of the United States on the
Genoa conference. He renlied that
he would answer that question when
he gave out the reply of this gov
ernment to attend the Forthcoming
economic conference.
