Action Removes AnOtI T OBJ
stacle From Path
Ratification.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Great Britain
will accept en- American Senate reserva-
ton on the four-power Pacific treaty
excluding the homeland OF Japan from
the protective scope Of the pact, It was
learned today on high British authority.
This decision on the part OF Britain
will make possible q prompt ratification
Of the treaty by the Senate, many OBJ
servers here believe.
Great Britains action, which is most
significant because the British were re-
sponsible for the delegates placing on
the treaty the Interpretation that 1t IN
cluded the main island of Japan, as
sures that none OF the siguatory powers
would object to Senate reservation to
meet virtually the only vital objection
raised in the Senate to the new pact
framed to scrap the AnglO-Japanese al
lance and preserve the peace OF the Pa
cihc.
Japan already in Informal negotiations
between Hughes and Ambassador Shide-
hara has approved exclusion OF Japan
proper from the protective features Of
the treaty. In fact, this Interpretation
aroused almost as much opposition in
Japan as In the Senate.
The United States, of course, is willing
to accept the new Interpretation and
France is said not to be concerned either

u. S. VIII SaUe Billion
Dollars tn Ten Years
by Hughes Naval Plan

WASHINGTON, Jan. More than a
billion dollars will be saved to the Amer
lean people during the next ten years I'M
der the Hughes naval limitation plan, ac-
cording to estimates by naval experts.
These figures are based upon proposed
reductions in expenditures already au-
thorized or contemplated and take no ac-
CONT Of other billions which would have
been spent for new waTships and naval
bases il the competition In ornaments
had not been curtailed by the Washington
conference Conservative estimates place
this latter sum at approximately a billion
dollars, thus bringing the grand total OF
saving into the nelgnborhood Of two bill
lion dollars.
The average cost Of maintaining
modern capital slip in commission is
three million dollars year, according TO
statistics of the Eavy Department.

Under the Hughes plan the United
States scraps thirty capital ships, thus
eliminating an expense OF some S9OO,OCO,-
900 annually for maintenance. mas
much as some OF these ships destined for
the scrap-heap are of older types and
consequently not so expensive to main
tain, this figure at first glance appears

capital ship ratios, the expense for shore
establishments will remain practically
stationary. Figured over a period of ten
years, the duration Of the proposed naval
holiday, the saving effected totals $780,
900, 900.
The estimates of additional saving Of a
billion dollars during the ten-year Period
are based on the suppOsition that, with
out the Hughes agreement, competition in
naval armament would have continued
and that the United States, in order to
maintain the position demanded by her
size, wealth and political Importance,
would have been compelled to build at
least two capital ships a year. Figuring
the cost OF a modern su GER -dreadnaught
at approximately $40 1000 900, and taking
into consideration the auxiliary craft re-
garded as necessary for the operation of
such vessels in feet formation, it is seen
the estimate Of a billion dollars Is not too
high.

Theater, hauled one of his tricks out
of the magic bag with which he used
to delight thousands when he was an

in an uproar. He made a bunch of

walking up and down the aisles. Ken

regular bill at Keith's this week, gave
an entertaining number.
The vaudeville performance over, the
guests were formed in line and sent

went past the stands three or four times,
eating until they were forced to drop

Approaches.
DE VALERA LOSING

DUBLIN, Jan. THE strength Of the
opponents Of the Irish peace treaty waned
this afternoon, increasing the hope Of the
supporters that the pact would be ratl-
fed on the first ballot tonight. The
mayor of Wexford, who had Teen op-
support. The mayor of Clonmel. another
anti" resigned his seat Thus two votes
were lost to Eamonn De Valera, leader Of
the opposition.
One Of De Valeras lieutenants summed
up the case Of the opposition as follows:
DE Valera does not want a renewal
Of warfare. He wants peace with Eng
land. IL the treaty Is ratified 1t would
have to pass Though the imperial Darlia-
ment at London again in the shape of
bill establishing the Irish Free State.
What would there be to prevent a reac-
tionary government In future years from
Wlplng the bill from the statute books?
If the presidents tactics are followed, no
such eventuality could arise"
DE YALERA'S RESIGNATION
RULED OUT OF ORDER.
Dali Eireann today ruled that the
resignation of Eamonn De Valera as
president Of the Irish republic was
out Of order. It had been rendered
during the meeting OF Dali Etreann Fri
day afternoon after the members had
failed to reach a compromise on the Irish
peace treaty.
When Dali met It was with the in
tention Of bringing the long fight over
ratification OK the treaty to a definite
close. 1t was planned to take d vote
some time before midnight.
Supporters OF De Valera believed the
position Of the treaty opponents had
been strengthened by the presidents"
sensational resignation speech, but they
admitted rejection OF the treaty was not
absolutely certain owning to the vascilla-
tons Of four or five members.
Friends Of De Valera said he would
retire Immediately from office If the
treaty were ratified, but would stand for
reelection later in the year.

BAN USE OF

Root Resolution Is
Passed by Five

INHUMAN WEAPON
BY GEORGE r. HOLMES.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Poison
gas was banned today by the five
great powers of the world as an in
human and indefensible weapon of
warfare.
The resolution, fathered by Elihu
Root, condemning the use of gas in
warfare and pledging the powers here
not to utilize it, was passed with the
full appreciation of all the powers in
today's secret session in the Pan.
American Building.
The signatory powers not only bound
themselves to abolish the use Of gas
but they also agreed Ito invite all other
civilized nations to agree thereto" to the
end that the ban may ultimately be in
corporated into othe international law.
ADOPTED AS
PROPOSED.
There was some discussion before the
resolution was passed, but In the end
it was adopted unanimously as proposed
by Root yesterday, without modification
or amendment.
After the gas resolution was adopted,
the powers began consideration Of 'hu-
manizlng" still another implement or
modern warfare-the airplane.
CONSIDER AIRPLANE
WARFARE MONDAY.
The subcommittee appointed to exam
anime into this matter rendered
lengthy report, but no action was taken
on it, and consideration went over until
next Monday. No formal resolution was
presented, placing restrictions upon the
bombing of unfortifed cities and non
combatant populations, out the belief
prevailed that a Mondays meeting such
a resolution viii be proposed, following
the general line Of action that has been
taken on submarines and gas.
In placing a ban on the use Of gas the
statesmen Of the five powers are riding
over the advice of the various
experts, who contend that enforce
ment Of the ban on gas is nearly inn
possible so long as the great manufac
turing nations go ahead making dyes and
other chemical products. However the
advice of the experts has been disra-
garded many times in the course Of the
conference.

Speech.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7.-An at
tack on Henry Ford signalized the
opening of the defense of Senator
Truman H. Newberry of Michigan by
his supporters In the Senate today.
Senator Townsend of Michigan,
Newberry's Republican colleague,
criticised Ford as a widely adver-
Used pacihst, who was drafted as a
senatorial candidate by former Presi-
dent Wilson"
Townsend pictured Newberry as one
who from purely patriotic motives had
reluctantly consented TO oppose Ford IN
the Michigan primaries Of 1918, because
Of the hostile feeling existing at the
time to Fords pacidsm."
ASIMOsITY AND
HATRED SHOWN.
Il had no idea that any spirit Of ami
mostly and hatred could go SO far as
that displayed by some Senator'S in their
abuse Of Senator Newberry,' Townsend
continued.
Townsend registered vigorous denial
Of Ford's charges that Newberry per
soually was responsible for the expendi-
thie VI AOdAay %-'oFoVV ~ bcNuAG AIS
nomination.
Among the things which created con
siderable feeling against Mr.. Ford in
Michigan was his advocacy OF the Yer
sailles treaty" Townsend said
but the Versailles treaty had not even
been heard of in 1918, when Senator
Newberry became a candidate for the
Senate" interposed Senator Walsh.
