CHINA TO CUT ARMY
Reduction of Land Armaments
Revived at Arms Meet.
Japanese Now Have Numerous objee-
tions to Offer to Hughes Pub
Iicity Plan.

Washington, Jan. 23.-ReductiOn of
land ornaments, wiped off the agendA
of the Washington conference In the
case of Frace, was revived and applied
to China. Demand that China
materially cut down her military forces
was included in q resolution spon-
sored by Senator Underwood of the
American delegation, and adopted un-
animously.
To force compliance with this fur
ther invasion of China's sovereignty
by a conference supposed to safeguard
her interests, the mite of an increase
in the Chinese tariff rates recently
allowed was made conditional upon ac-
ceptance of the mandate to reduce her
army.
Indications that the Anglo-Japanese
alliance still is in operation were seen
in the support given the Underwood
resolution. Sir Robert Borden, former
Premier of Canada, and member of
the British delegation, who made the
motion Wednesday to strike out the
retroactive section of the Hughes open
door resolution, made the principal
speech In favor Of reducing land
armaments exclusively in China. Sir
Roberts speech was prepared In ad-
vance.
Of course, the necessity for China
expending less money on soldiers was
based purely on economic grounds.
Nothing was said of the effect the
development Of an efficient army In
China would have on Japan's attitude
toward China. There has been much
open talk by Chinese here at the con-
ference of the movement to wake up
their people and get them interested in
preparing adequate weapons for the
defense of their land against foreign
aggression. The eye Of the sleeping
giant Of the orient" once aroused, It
is recognized, inevitably must first fall
upon Japan.
The japanese delegates showed
their own hand In backing up on the
position they took Thursday with re-
gard to the Hughes resolution for pub
licatfon of all commitments relating to
China. The japanese thoroughly ap-
proved the proposal 'in principle"
They now have numerous objections to
offer.
Baron Shidehara, for the japanese
delegation, objected to the proposed
requirements that private claims to
special rights, privileges and conces-
sions be listed with the secretary gen.
eral of the conference, to be compiled
and distributed to all the powers par
ticipating in. the conference He also
stated that many Of the documents as
serted as basis for Japan's claims In
China are in japanese or Chinese Ian
guage, and Japan would not be bound
by translatiops.
