BY COL. EDWARD M. HOUSE.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 2.-Last Au-
gust, when the opinion was expressed
that the Washington conference
could not count upon the cooperation
Of France in its efforts toward the
limitation Of ornaments, the events
of the past few weeks were antici-
pated. The reasons set forth then
were based upon conditions which
have remained unchanged.
It IS useless to deny that Frances
attitude regarding the limitation Of ar
maments. both on land and sea, has
shocked this country, but It should
have been known In advance The cause
FOR her action goes back to the tripar-
tite treaty, in which Great Britain and
the United states guaranteed to come to
the aid Of France if an unwarranted at
tack was made upon her by Germany.
For this guarantee she gave up her
demand for some disposition Of the left
bank Of the Rhine. which would have
given, according to her military experts
the security desired The tr!partitc
treaty failed Of ratification in our Sen

protection on her eastern frontier, and
having failed to obtain substantial as
surances elsewhere, France feels com
PEELED to fan back upon her own re-
sources. These resourcesc are mainly

from French colonies. Left as she is.
France stands today with less than
100000 Of people against whom she
visualizes nearly 60,Oo0OOO of Germans
It is d handicap which she is seeking

sometimes called the nuisance tax,
which has caused so much confusion and
bad feeling among purchasers Of rail-
road tickets, toilet articles, clothing, gen

water and numerous other articles for
the better part of the last four years.
For when Old Man 1921 departed at
midnight Saturday he took with him the
greater part Of the luxury tax, prob
ably one of the most generally disliked
taxes ever imposed on the American peO-
pie since the days of the tea tax that
ended in the famous Boston Tea Party.
The unpopular feature OF the tax arose.
not so much from any feeling that the
amount of money raised under it was ex-
