MOOD or nations
IS FARLEY FACTOR
Armament Agreements viii
Be Limited Unless Five
Powers Concur.
~ Mark SULLIVAN.

From this day on, the proposed naval
conference becomes like an arch with
five stones, each dependent on the
other. 1t cannot be said that refusal
by any one nation to accept Britain'S
invitation would make the conferences
impossible In such an outcome, which
is completely unanticipated, the con-
ference would go on, and some very
important agreements would come out
Of it, though necessarily limited.
Assuming all i've nations accept, any
limiting condition imposed by any one
of them viii be- limitation on the
ultimate agreement as a whole. On the
other hand, the reverse side OF the pic
ture includes sensationally beneficent
possibilities If all the nations should
be willing to go all the way there is no
eXaggerating how far the final agree
ment might go. Certainly it could go
beyond anything so far discussed.
There was one most pregnant OF all
the moving sentences Mr.. Macdonald
has spoken since arriving here. The
passage said: I'VE have all taken risks
in the making of war and the going
into war. Isn't it time that we should
take some risks to secure peace?" That,
coming from the sort of man Mr..
Macdonald is, indicates a mood OF
readiness to make daring adventure
in reduction if all the others are willing
to follow.
Free Of Naval Armament.
To begin with, Great Britain and the
United States, as respects each other,
are at the point where the boundary
between the United States and Canada
has been for 100 years. From the
public utterances of Mr.. Macdonald 1t

nornic strain ahead. Within few
weeks japanese statesmen addressed
mass meetings of people asking them to
be willing to work harder and spend
less. In some cases the people respond
ed with emotional tears.
Japan Wishes for Reduction.
Apart from the immediate economic
motive, Japan earnestly wishes for
peace and naval reduction. That has
been Japan's policy for some years
regardless of careless assertion to the
contrary Some two years ago, on the
eve of the Geneva conference, res
ponsible japanese statesman asked the
writer of this dispatch to carry mess
age to the then President of the United
States. The message was that If the
United States wished to go down to
one cruiser. Japan would be willing to
90 down to three-fifths of a cruiser,
assuming the other nations would act
in the same spirit. Yet the Geneva
conference fell into or was worked into.
a mood of contention and suspicion.
In the end, the outcome was not less
building but more
The immediate problem between now
and the coming London conference Is
to have the nations which will compose
the conference enter into or remain IN

those interested that the new invention
win revolutionize the catching Of whales
from both the points Of technic and
economy"
OF course, we are not In q position
to say whether 1t Is a good thing or not
to have whales in the ocean. It would
seem to us, however, that 1t might be
worth while to leave enough of them
there so that the supply could be in
creased later If it seemed desirable.

is safe to say that he and, Of course,
President Hoover would be happily
willing to have the Atlantic Ocean
boundary between their nations as free
from naval armament as are the Great
Lakes between US and Canada. That
willingness, expressed in the spirit Of
speeches by responsible heads Of gov
ernmentS, is a concrete accomplishment
and q historic one. Its consummation
Is largely the fruit Of what has so far
taken place.
Great Britain, however, must take
account of several other boundaries.
One is the Channel boundary between
herself and France. IF France were
willing 10 minimize naval armament as
between herself and Britain, France in
turn is obliged to bear in mind yet an
other boundary, namely, the one be-
tween herselt and Italy. Furthermore,
Great Britain is obliged to take account
Of the Pacific Ocean boundary between
her dominion Australia and Japan.
The whole thing Is an arch with each
dependent on the other. The distance
any one nation can go In reduction Is
limited by the distance one or several
of the others are willing to go. All are
tied together. The limit to the distance
the conference as whole may go is
the degree of the fear or the belliger-
ency entertained by the most suspicious
one Of the five.
Mood Of Nations Factor.
/ From now on, everything hangs upon
the mood in which all of the five enter
the conference and conduct it. II
France, italy and Japan should have
the mood that America and Britain al
ready have, in that event the outcome
of the conference could be greater re-
duction than is indicated by the figures
already mentioned for the United States
and Britain.
To bring about such mood as would
lead to really striking reduction is prob
ably beyond the reach of statesmen. The
mood Of a conference and the moods of
nations come with as much caSualness
as the moods of an individual. The
concrete fact is that each of the ma
tions, Japan. italy and France. has
rather more reason TO wish for reduc-
ton than America and Britain. Each
of these nations. In the sense of aggre-
cations of individuals, wants reduction.
Everybody knows that the average
JapaneSe, Frenchman and italian would
prefer not to pay heavy taxes and not
to 90 to war with each other. Japan,
for example, is at this moment poor.
Her statesmen know she has an eco

blow to those interested in the preser-

to hear that quicker, more certain
way of killing them electrically has
been devised. The equipment can be
purchased for about $700.

and its own Shearers. Another difh-
Guilty lies in the domestic politics of
