EXPECT RATIFICATION OF ALL THE TREATIES
Washington Officials Optimistic Over Arms Conference Paets
STILL DISCORD, HOWEVER
Others
Several Nations Reserve Final Action While Watching Other
Washington, Sept. 18 (Unite Press)-While nearly ten months has passed since the opening of the Washington arms Conference and only on of the many treaties signed here have been ratified by all parties, all of the treaties will eventually be ratified by all governments involve high administration officials here be lieve.
Opened by one of the frankest speeches ever made in diplomatic circles, when Secretary of State Hughes stated the purpose of the conference to the delegates, representatives of nine nations worked for three months preparing treaties affecting the whole world.
The first of these treaties is the five-power naval limitation treaty, signed by the United States, Great Britain, France, Japan and Italy. The second is the four-power Pacific Treaty, signed by the United States, France and Japan. The third of the three most important of the treaties is the nine-power far east treaty, guaranteeing the integrity of China, signed by the United States, Great Britain, France, Japan, Great Britain, France, the Netherlands and China.
The only treaty negotiated at the conference which has been ratified by both governments affected in the so-called Shaltunt treaty, signed by Japan and China, whereby Japan agreed to return to China the territory occupied by Japanese in later captured from the Imperial German government by the Nipponese.
Each of the first two of the treaties has been ratified by three of the signers, the United States, Great Britain and Japan having notified the other powers of their acceptance of the pacts. Neither France nor Italy have acted upon the pacts, Italy waiting for France to act and France waiting for the reconvenence of her parliament the middle of October.
While none of the three powers who have already ratified the agreements have made any amendments or reservations, and it is not thought that France will make any changes, Italy has withheld final action until France
have made any amendments or reservations, and it is not thought that France will make any changes, Italy has withheld final action until France might go to the geographical positions of the two countries, the government at Rome feels it necessary to the welfare of the country that any reservations or amendments made by France must be claimed by that government. It must also agree that the three great naval powers already agreeing to the treaties will carry them out regardless of the action of France and Italy, but officials emphatically stated that the acceptance of the pacts by both Latin countries
The problem of German reparations has so greatly absorbed the interest of France for some months that the attention of the governments has not been turned upon the treaties, but the opinion has been expressed here that regardless of the outcome of these present problems, 'France will be unwilling to pass up the Washington agreements.
The third of the important treaties has been ratified by four of the nine powers whose signatures were attached at the close of the Washington conference, the United States, Great Britain, Japan and China. Ratification by the other powers of this guarantee of the integrity of China is expected at any time from the other powers, it was learned.
Influence of the Pacific pact has already been felt, it is thought here. My mutterlings relating to possible changes in South Korea and Japan, which were heard consistently before the conference, have ceased and a new feeling of understanding has arisen between the two nations. This has been greatly aided by the prospective elimination of North Korea, but it has been alleged, was one of the most disturbing influences to peace in the far east.
