u. S. OPEN DOOR
PLAN ACCEPTED
AT AR MS MEET
| Program Accepted After
Concession Provision
Is Dropped

Washington, D. c., Jan. 1s.-(By
Tho Associated Press. 1.-The Ameri-
can open door program was accepted
in part today by the Far Eastern COM
mittce of the arms conference but ap-
proval was given only after elimina-
ton of the provision which would have
authorized an inquiry into existing
concessions in China.
The French. renewing their obJec-
tion to re-opening the whole field of
concessions granted in the past were
seconded by the japanese and the pro-
posal was finally thrown out at the
sugguestion of the British.
The Chinese reserved the right to
call it up again but the general i'm
preston among the delegation was
that 1t had been permanently side
tracked so far as this conference Is
concerned.
Viewed by many delegates as tho
most sweeping provision Of the Ameri-
can plan, the existing concessions ar
ticle was the center of debate. various
delegates opposing 1t on the ground
that It might lead to an almost end
less inquiry into tho validity Of the
maze of economic arrangements in
force in China For the American
delegation however 1t was said that the
eliminated article was not considered
of vital importance since remaining
provisions of the plan would permit
examination of existing concessions
where both parties agree to 1t.
As adopted. the open door resolu-
ton contains n mutual pledge not to
seek spheres OF influence or mono
poles in China and authorizes crea-
ton Of an internatiopal board OF ref.
ercncc with power to investigate and
report on any case which seems to in
volve violation of the principle of
equal economic and commercial op-
portunity.
Turning TO the problem Of railway
control In China the committee laid
the ground work for tomorrow's dis
cussions by hearing two resolutions
proposed for promoting equitable
development of Chinese rail facilities.
The first, introduced by Sir Auck-
land Gcddes OF the British delegation
would pledge the powers against dis
criminatory practices on roads under
their control. The other presented
by Secretary Hughes would express n
hope that tho transportation lines In
China might he welded eventually Into
