'The Arms Conference and
Its Significance. y
-By Frances A. Rozelle

| The delegates unanimously agreed
to prohibit the use of poisonous gas
| in warfare.
An agreement between the United
States and Japan concerning the long
disputed questions relating to. the
| Pacific treaty was adopted by, the
United States, Great Britain. France,
| and Japan. - =
China and Japan finally settled the
vexed question, Of Shantung, and
China had the satisfaction Of obtain
free her from the domination Of
| foreign powers. The agreements re-
garding China's neutrality in future
wars. open diplomacy" among the
nations, and the adoption Of the
policy OF "the open door," are all very
important to China.
| China, by her participation in the
| conference, made longer strides to-
ward freedom from interference by
foreign nations than she could pos
any other method.
The Significance of the arms con-
| ference cannot possibly be measured
at this time. Wonderful things have
been accomplished looking toward
| world peace which could not have
| been accomplished in any other way
| 1t has hastened The day when there
| will be established in the minds Of
| men the conviction that war, with it's
| orgies of blood and death, is too
cruel and horrible ever to be entered
into by civilized nations. Achieve
ment of far-reaching influence
| throughout the world has been writ
ten into the record of this, the first
parliament of it's kind in the history
| of civilization. and while war among
the nations of the earth has not yet
been made impossible. long step has
I been taken in that direction, and the
| outlook for permanent world peace
is far brighter as a result Of the arms
conference at Washington in the
years of grace, 1871 and 1922.

The calling of the arms conference
by President Harding to meet in
Washington November II. 1921. marks
the greatest forward movement for
world peace that has taken place since
the beginning of history.
Representatives of the leading ma
tions of the world-United States.
Great Britain, Japan. France, Italy,
China. Belgium, Netherlands and Por-
tugal-have been devoting their time
and energies to evolving plan ac-
bility and the brutalities of war will
be greatly lessened. Long disputed
questions between rival nations have
been amicably settled. and it Is con-
fidently believed that when the plans
made and agreements reached are
made effective, the dawn of new era
for the whole world will be seen.
The nations participating sent their
wsest statesmen to represent them
in settling the great questions to be
considered, and these great men set
themselves with a will to the task Of
limiting the armaments OF the world
and lessening the horrors OF war.
At the first meeting Chairman
Hughes presented the plan of naval
disarmament calling for naval holi-
day" of ten years and the destruc-
tion of sixty-eight capital ships of
the American, British and Japanese
navies. Pursuant to this proposal.
the 5-5-s plan was adopted. governing
the replacement tonnage in capital
ships of the five great powers par
ticipating. The size of auxiliary ships
of war and the gurs to be carried by
them was decided, as well as the
number of aircraft-carriers for each
of the Ave powers.
Considerable difficulty having arisen
over the ratio for submarine tonnage,
it was decided to postpone the settle
ment of this question until some
future time. However. regulations
governing submarine warfare were
adopted. These regulations prohibit
submarines from attacking merchant
vessels, except under certain condi-
tions; prohibit the use of submarines
as commerce destroyers, and make
the commanders of any ships guilty
of such transgressions liable to
punishment for piracy.
