Former Under-Secretary
State Rams Arms Meet

New York, Feb. 17-Criticisn Of the
Washington conference on Arn1a-
nent and far eastern questions was
voiced in an address tonight by Nor
man H. Davis, former under-secre-
tsry of state, who said it had been
anything but an American diplo-
matte victory"
Mr.. Davis speaking before the
council on foreign affairs. centered
his attack upon the four power
treaty. which he declared, left the
British and Japan fleets in control Of
the far east. It also would seem. he
argued. that instead Of getting rid Of
the AngIo-Japanese alliance. the
United States had entered it. enlarg.
ed it and changed the territory COW
cred by it."
Through the treaty. he said, Japan
obtained from the United States a
pledge Of good behavior in the Pa
cisc without giving a reciprocal as
surancc.
Americas entry into the pact. he
added, might lead this country into
the European system Of alliances.
