ARMS CUT HOPES
VOICED BY DAVIS
Sees Chance Powers Will
Act-Japanese Inquiry
by Senate Blocked.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Ambassador -at-Large Norman Il.
Davis believes there Is a possibility
for limitation of armaments on lard
and sea within the next year or two
If the major powers foster a spirit Of
international cooperation. He said
as much to President Roosevelt yes
terday.
Coincidental with this indication OF
international accord came word OF a
second move by the United States in
volving Japan. A proposed senatorial
investigation of Japan's conduct in
Manchuria and the inundated islands
was quickly headed of by admins
tration leaders in Congress.
Pittman Checks Plan.
Senator Pittman, Democrat, of Ne
vada, chairman of the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee, said the COM
mittee would not consider such an In
vestigation pending approval from the
State Department. At the Depart
ment it was indicated the proposal
would be quickly suppressed.
The investigation was asked Mon
day in resolutions introduced by SEN
ator King, Democrat, Of Utah, which
administration leaders yesterday
pointed out had been placed before
the Senate without previous confer
ence with Senate leaders.
Sees Action Harmful.
Pittman said he regarded the pro-
posed action as harmful.
Davis, in a talk with reporters, de-
clined to specify any definite formula
for naval limitation, but indicated
that an accord could probably be
achieved through substitution of some
other yardstick for the existing
numerical ratio system. Objection to
the $50 ratio provided in the Wash
ington treaty resulted in denunciation
OF that pact by Japan on December 20.

had the ace and another spade. South
had made up his mind how he was
going to play the diamond suit. He
was going to lead the queen from
the table, and If East did not cover,
he was going to let 1t ride. He as
sumed that most of the gentlemen
playing in the tournament would
play a small diamond toward the
queen. In the event that West held
the king, both his play and theirs
would win; but his play would be sue
cessful If East covered, and ne could
subsequently guess whether West held
the jack doubleton Of the suit or
East held both the king and jack.
Fortunately, South didn't have to
struggle with that problem. West
obligingly ducked the spade and a
few seconds later found himself on
lead with the ace. He had to play
diamonds, which was just what South
was waiting for. South thought he
was pretty clever to lose only one
trump, one diamond and one heart.

thorities to follow O more belhgerant
policy toward the Japanese.
Anything that may be twisted by
the Japanese to mean offense to
Japan's honor or an attitude that Is
not co-operative-co-operative In the
dismemberment Of China--means an
other demand" that must be met
and another weary row for the Nam
king government to hoe. Thus the
attitude Of the officials at Nanking
Is one Of extreme caution toward the
appearance of anything that might
offend the JapaneSe. If a Chinese
newspaper, even an English-language
newspaper in Shanghai, too frankly
discusses Japan sse ambitions the
offending newspaper man must skut-
tie, for the Nanking government will
get him to appease the Japanese.
When the Chinese writer, Tu
Chung-yuan, wrote in the New
Life magazine q somewhat phil
osophically detached article on what
Americans might call the decline Of
the king business and unfortunately
allowed his discussion to lead him
into an appraisal Of the Japanese En-
peror as a puppet and the Emperor
OF Manchukuo as the puppet of q
puppet, he was hauled up and SEN
fenced to IA months in jail by the
Chinese courts for making state
ments unfavorably affecting China s
relations with friendly nations
law which can cover MANY sins of
the press.
Japan Makes Demands.
When an European news agency
made the unfortunate statement
Immediately corrected-in the rush of
| excitement at Marking over the at
| tempted assassination of Wan Ching
Wei that Japanese was believed
concerned in the assassination Japa-
nese diplomats from London to Toxic
were apparently more seriously con-
cerned" with that misstatement than
with the tragedy itself and made i'm
mediate demands on the harassed OIL
Gals at Marking to prevent the further
| dissemination of such erroneous news.
Thus it is in country where aspi-
.rations toward developing a sense of
patriotism and national unity are log
lcally based on the realization that
without them there can never be real
unity, there is Sternly muzzled press
and government which pays high lip
service to patriotism without daring
the risk Of putting it to a test.
For this one cannot blame the Chi
nese. Japan is world power, with
national aspirations which, whether
right or wrong, are determined and
carried out by the Japanese-and no
one else. China, despite her teeming
millions and her rich resources, Is an
impoverished nation, burdened by
more ills than ever were known to
Job.
Those who know China say that the
significant aspect of the new life
movement and other such manifesto
tions of the urge toward national
unity and pride in country does not
lie in the success or failure of that
movement but in the fact that any
thing like it was ever started.
The visitors impression OF China
today is that given half a chance some
Of the fond dreams of her leaders may
be realized. But her half a chance
seems still far away.
