ness to discuss any plan for the
limitation of naval ornaments.
Both the American and British
delegations refuse to grant such
recognition. In view of the COM
plete deadlock which has de-
veloped. the view prevails in an
three quarters-the British. Ameri-
can and Japanese-that there is
no use carrying on the conference
any longer.
However, no one wants to be
shouldered with responsibility for
breaking up the conference.
Furthermore, both the American
and japanese delegations suspect
one another of intent to jump at
the opportunity of blaming the
other for the collapse of the cor
ference.
Doesn't Dare Leave
Therefore. the American and
Japanese delegations are par
ticularly careful to avoid any
suggestion that the conference
admit its failure and quit.
In line with this effort to
prevent the Japanese delegation
from Shouldering the United
States with blame for collapse
Of the conference, Undersecre-
tary of State William Phillips, a
leading member of the American
delegation, is remaining in Lon.
don despite the fact he wants
to come home.
He originally planned to stay
there only few weeks. But he
does not dare leave at the mo-
ment for fear the Japanese will
accuse him of walking out on the
conference.
Meanwhile, the conferees are
hanging around waiting impa-
tiently for a face-saving excuse to
go home. The time is spent dis
cuSSing how the naval powers will
exchange information on the
ships they may build-a job which
their respective naval attaches
already perform.

it would be better to postpone
House action on the proposal un'

She said she is convinced that

Washington to lower rents in

In response to her declaration
yesterday that she intends 20 OBJ

After she has obtained this in

squarely before them, with the
warning that they must either
take some remedial action or that
she will press for such action in

u. S., Britain Oppose Plan
The. Americans and British re-
manned adamantly opposed to &C
cepting the Japanese plan for a

There was an impression among
some delegates that Japan vas
bluffing, and that she could not
afford to let the parley end with
out discussing possible fortified
ton of Pacific Islands by the
United States after lapse of the

French delegates acted as me.
diators with Japan, in a final
effort to revive the conference
from the blow Japan gave it yes

ference back to the question OF
japanese parity.
Japan's delegates cabled Tokyo
for new instructions. but so
strong had Nippon's need" for
naval equality been publicized
there that observers felt there
was little hope for any changes
in her attitude.
The conference can still be
dragged on if the four powers
yield and talk Japan's point, but
not one seemed disposed today
to do so.

October IS was selected recently as the Hath anniversary of the first minting of U. s. coins. Just why Uncle Sam waited IA years to decide that October IS was the anniversary hasn't yet been revealed. At any rate Mint officials got digging around through musty volumes of records recently and unearthed several facts that proved to them that the first coins were turned out by the Mint on October 15. Records for a long time showed that George Washington reported work pro- gressing on mintage of half-dimes in October of 1792 But some Mint records were illuminating. On October IS gallons of rum were bought for Mint employees. Then on October IT there was similar order Officials deduced that something occurred shortly before the 17th to cause the rum supply to be exhausted. As there was only a small force of employees they figured it must have been celebration and what better time to celebrate than at the minting of the first coins. That, they figured, took place on October IS; there was celebra- tion that night; on the 18th all were recovering from their bender; on the 17th business returned to normalcy. Eureka!
