secretary for foreign affairs. in the
house of lords today referred TO the
Washington conference in similar
terms as the premier's speech in the
commons. paying tribute to the bold
and wise initiative of President
Harding and Secretary Hughes. He
emphasized the Importance of a
treaty which removed barriers to

an Anglo-Japanese alliance, and COM
mended the good sense and public
spirit of all parties concerned. includ-
ing Japanese delegates, who. he said,
conducted their case with unfailing
good temper. much sagacity and a
sincere desire, by conciliation, to ar
rive at good results.
He said he thought II would be a
great mistake to form defensive and
offensive alliance with France. He
doubted If any government proposing
such an alliance would be supported
by the country. 1t was desirable to
get away from the old policy of mill
tary alliances, which had turned
Europe into armed camps. The gov-
ernment ought to do nothing to en-
courage such a policy.
Several OF the peers spoke in COM
plimentary terms of the work of the

tude OF the Japanese delegates.

NAVAL TREATY Will

WASHINGTON. Feb. "A saving
of about 5000, 100000 for the United
States of the present building pro-
gram Of the navy will result from
agreements reached at the arms con-
ference, the federal reserve board
declared in statement tonight.
High naval officials, however. were
of the opinion that the boards es-
innate was too high as, it was ex-
planned. the scrapping of ships now
under construction would involve
payments of claims to the builders
which might offset considerable
portion OF the savings resulting from
halting the building program.
Limitation of armaments decided
upon at the conference will effect
Immediately, the board declared, saw
ings only in three countries--the
United States, England and Japan
whose finances already are In a
relatively sound condition. Savings
in England and Japan, the board
estimated, would be approximately
equivalent to those of this country.
In France and Italy however, the
board explained, no increase in naval
armaments had been contemplated
so that their immediate problems
would not be affected. Any saw
ings in England and France re-
suIting from decreased expenditures

clared, probably would have to be
applied to debt reduction, while in
Germany any balancing Of the bud

ations OF the mark and large in
creases in taxation planned. Italy

ficult to increase government rev.
enues to meet expenditures.
TT is particularly important In the
present situation" the board said,
mot only that government budgets
should be balanced so that short
time borrowing by the government
may be discontinued but also that
the sum of government expenditures
should be decided in order to reduce
the tax burden of the business COM
munity. In most countries how
ever, curtailment of taxes seems
highly problematical at present.

GRAIN PRICES SOAR
WITH PROFIT TAKING
SALES ONLY TO DROP

CHICAGO, Feb. 7. - There were
rushes to buy wheat today with profit
taking sales in great volume. AS a
result. new advances in price were
only maintained in part. The clos
ing was unsettled, hc to &c net
higher, with May 1.2sls to 1.2S%.
and July i.11% to 1.11h. Corn lost
nc to Jh6%c. oats finished un-
changed TO Ac lower and provisions
at a decline of IL to soc.
At first wheat here scored an up
turn of about two cents, chiefly be-
cause of encoura cement which buy
ers had received from word OF fresh
rise in values at Liverpool and
Buenos Aires. Advices also were at
hand telling of continued reduction
of the small stock of wheat available
at Liverpool. Eagerness to purchase
was given further impetus owing to
reports of probable heavy abandon
ment of acreage in Kansas and be-
cause of talk Of the presence OF the
green bug pest In oklahoma. The
fact. however, that there had re.
Gently been an advance of 2lc here
was apparently believed by many
traders to have discounted all factors
enough. Selling TO realize profits
took on huge proportions and for a
time caused the market to lose more
than the early advance. A moderate
rally which ensued during the late
trading was due in the main to COW
ering by shorts.
Corn and oats, after touching in
some cases the highest prices this
season, gave way under profit TAX
ing sales and in increase of country
offerings.
Selling ascribed to packers weak

small advance had been brought
about through higher quotations on

Announcement also has been made
by Mr.. Lewis and other union Of

sought to be made effective on April

the only formal expression as to the
amount.

demands as TO wages--a few favoring

declaring for advances ranging
from 10 to 60 per cent. A majority OF

what he believes he had qualified. He

preliminary bond. No money was in
their hands for expenditure at that
time.

notice as is actually given him to

have they qualified? ! haven't any
doubt but what they have been ap-
pointed. I haven't any doubt but
what they have attempted in good

they have effectively qualified.
