Another law fixes the salary Of each

listing law members are authorized to
draw per diem pay for service on the
board Of commissioners, as members

and have further been awarded. for
the past several years. travelling ex-
penses. The salary fixed in this act
is net reduction of more than $3.50
for each commissioner In addition to
reducing salaries of the county COM
mixioners, the bills introduced to-
night increase their duties by making
them directly responsible for tho
county police force, and by repeating

Disposal Of Dog Taxes.
Another act directs that dog taxes
be paid to the clerk Of the police court

would be highly desirable that any
commitment. whether with the central
government or with the local au-
thorities or governments. should be
known.
Ne DiAculty Expected.
He understood, from what had been
said by their British, French and Jap
anese colleagues. that 1t was not 60
ing to be a matter Of very great ditn-
Guilty to list these engagements. The
important thing was that the powers
at the conference should know that
all was known; that is, that they
should have q complete statement,
which. giving abundant time for IT'S
verification. should be regarded as a
anal statement with respect to the
commitments a. to China. He hoped,
therefore, that there would be no
Limitation which would allow any
commitment to be ignored on tne
ground that 1t was local or informal
or not reduced to the form OF treaty
relating to China, or some political
subdivision of China
Mr.. Koo said that on this que: lion
Of the commitments, he hoped he un-
derstood correctly that in making out
a list Of these commitments not only
those to which China is a party, but
also others between powers concern

Desires Understanding.
Baron Shidehara said that he would
like a clear understanding on one
point It would not be dificult to
give q full list of commitments and
agreements to which the Japanese
government itself was a party. The
question Of Chinese obligations to
individuals or firms, however, to

for any government to ascertain the
precise nature and terms of such con-
tracts and to make a list Of them. He
assumed. therefore. that the chair.

those agreements and claims to which

The chairman said that. it was, OF

Mr.. Koo added that, SO far as the
Chinese delegation was aware, the
only engagement China had entered
into, concerning which others had at
times manifested some desire to know
the exact nature, was the treaty of
1896 with Russia, known as the Lii
Lobanoff treaty. If any of the mem

RussO-C Chinese Alliance.
His suggestion would be that. in
stead of discussing all such matters
at once, or at least having a dis
cussion which would not be definitely
related to a particular topic at a par
ticular time, the committee should
first take up the matter of listing the
various commitments upon which the
nations relied in respect of China. AS
preliminary to that he trusted that
he might. with their consent, invite
the disclosure which Mr.. Koo stated
that he was ready to make.
Mr.. Koo declared that. in COM

be glad to lay before the committee

alliance, as soon as copy was made
for submission. He wished to add,
| however. that the said treaty was

so that its term had already expired.
Sir Auckland Geddes said that the
British empire were fully prepared to

| they had with China; fully prepared
IE fact. the vast majority of them were
already published. He was not. how
ever, sure that he understood Mr..
Koo correctly. Did he wish all the
treaties of peace and commerce be-
tween Britain and China to be re-
known to the whole world. 1t would
be quite possible to prepare asuch q
list, and If it were considered desir-
able there was no difficulty about
doing it., It. however, would take a
little time.
British Prepare List.
The British empire delegation had
prepared a list of all the minor COM
mitments embodied in instruments of
treaties which existed between them
and China. These, they were pre-
pared to publish, or to give to the
secretary-general. or in any other
way to make them available to the
whole world. They believed that they
who took the trouble to look for
them. The vast majority of them, at
all events, had been published in that
most valuable work by Mr.. Mac
Murray.
In saying that they were willing
to publish all these commitm ents at
once. it was not possible to guaran-
tee that the list that they had at hand
was exhaustive; and he suggested in
formally that, after there had been
publication of list of these docu-
ments, a certain time interval be al
lowed for others which might have
been overlooked to be added to the
list. 1t was possible that the mere
fact of publication was quite likely
to bring to attention something that
had been for the moment overlooked
With that proviso. and dealing
purely with the suggestion of publi-
cation, and to repeat what he had al1
ready said, the fullest publicity fell
in exactly with'the desire Of the Brit
ish empire delegation in this matter
Of their relations with China.
