WASHINGTON. Jan. 22.-tP-
During the remaining few weeks Of

tsry Kellogg hopes to complete the
program he laid out a rear ago in the
negotiation Of treaties Of arbitration
and ar Cancellation with practically
every nation in the world.
Having sponsored the mUltilateral
treaty for the remuneration Of war,

tiation IF the bilsterai treaties Of

~l'eves viii furnish a very effective

Within TIE next month. Mr.. KEEL
lorg hopes. the fourteen other orig

war treaty will have ratified that
nact. As that treaty calls for the
Pacific settlement If all information
al disputes. Mr.. kellogg foresaw the
need Of the United States for ma
chinery 70 facilitate the adjustment
Of such controversies and set about
concluding treaties with all nations
for that purpose
The arbitration treaties signed
with various nations by Secretary
Root more than 20 years ago were
expiring and Mr. Kellogg decided 20
modernize them. He eliminated from
the scope of arbitrations Questions
affecting the vital interest. the indie
pendence or the honor" Of the con
tracing parties. Such vague and
all-inclusive exceptions, he believed,
could be construed "a cover almost
any substantial international dis
pute.
In its revised form the draft Of
the arbitration treaty was offered
10 80 nations. Thirteen Of these
treaties have been signed and eleven
ratified BY the senate.
The Cancellation treaties being ne
gotiated are the same as those con-
cluded BY Secretary BRYAN with a
