j. s. OPPOSED
To ENLARG|NG
NAVY FARLEY
BY KINGSBURY SMITH
Copyright, 1898. by International
News Seryice)

This Government would prefer
to have the next naval confer
ence confined to a three-power
parley between the United States,
Great Britain and Japan.
The State Department does not
view with any enthusiasm sug-
gestions emanating from Europe
to widen the scope of the naval
conference to include Germany
and Russia as we'll as France
and Italy.
Although it is recognized that
Germany and probably Russia
must be considered in any meet
ing covering all phases Of naval
limitation, the view prevailed in
authoritative quarters today that
inclusion of the four smaller
powers in a general conference
would involve so many European
political issues and cover such a
wide field that it would add to
the difficulties of reaching any
agreement between the three big
powers.
Favor Two Treaties
There Is a tendency to adhere
to the two-treaty system of naval
limitation; that Is, a three-power
agreement between the United
States, Britain and Japan covering
the big So-called capital ships
battleshipS and aircraft carriers,
and another treaty along the
lines Of the exiSting>London agree
ment, covering smaller ships.
Officials here are inclined to
favor q three-power meeting first,
to be followed at a later date by
a general conference to consider
renewal Of the London agreement,
which covered cruisers, destroyerS
and submarines.
1t is felt there might be more
chance Of reaching an agreement
on capital ships If the conference
were confined to the three big
powers first. It also was felt that
an agreement among them might
make 1t easier to induce the
smaller powers to join in naval
limitation.
Capital Ships Issue
As to the question of the capital
ships, which might be demanded
by the smaller powers, the view
prevailed that the position of the
three big powers could be safe.
guarded through esculator clauses,
as Is now the case.
With Japan demanding full
equality and Germany again en-.
ter1ng the naval armament pic.
ture, the outlook for any kind of
naval limitation agreement was
considered far from bright. This
only added to the belief that a
separate agreement should be
sought first among the three big
powers.

1t would seem that as long as

A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT
BY Mrs. Walter Ferguson

a VERY great number of people alive today can
remember when men thought of themselves as
the protectors of women Most of our gentlemen
still cling to such delicate attentions as walking on
the outer edge of the sidewalk and holding open
heavy doors when they accompany ladies' but these
attentions once the outward sign of inner chiv-
alrc grace, have become meaningless habits.
II you live in city though. you must often be
struck by the numbers of women who are to all
ntents and purposes the protectors of men Just try
to pry into the inner office of one of these high
powered financial moguls to get to the desk
OF the head of ordinary company doing mod
crate business, and see what happens
guard sits before each mans door Now and
then the guard will be dressed in trousers but
more often a we'll groomed, sereney poised Young
lady will greet you, with the air of a princess in
the tower the lookout for enemies who are
after the castle treasure. First she wants to know
whether you have appointment Then she asks
for your occupation. pedigree, age and telephone
number; next she expresses keenest regret and is
sorry the boss is in conference.
You may think to outwit her by phoning in but
voice soft silk will explain that the man you
wish to is either buried in work out of town
having lunch or engaged with an important GUS
toner.
so, deep within the sacred receSSes Of his private
Office the American business sits free from
petty snnoyances. secluded from beggars and bores-
and nine times out of ten. his watchdog is a woman
Whether he is really in conference to decide
grave business measures or whether he only cabs

And nothing could be more admirable to repel

of these Office sphnXes. You can't soft-soap or

down No knight watching over his lady fair in the

in the patient vigilance of these girls who prac-
tically defy you to reach the boss over their dead
