Disarmament Conference Is Called To Meet Crisis In Anglo-Japanese Relations
By A. L. BRAIDFORD,
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
(Copyright, 1921, United Press).
Washington, Oct. 18—In the
reaching expanses of Florida and
the Far East must be the found im-
mence of the prompt President Harding to call the Washington Dis-
signment Conference.
To Washington, the world looked for the actual step to bring the powers into conference to discuss means of meeting the demand of peoples everywhere for relief from the burden of maintaining ever-growing war ma-
cities.
The conference was not specially planned by the Harding Administration when it came into office.
The conclusion that the time was ripe came upon Hughes suddenly with a culmination of world events, which threw the question up to the United States. A decision to call the conference forthwith was reached and executed swiftly by Harding and Hughes at same day, July 9.
The situation in which the two greatest nations of the world—the United States and Great Britain, and in July, can beUMed up briefly as follows:
These two leading powers, bound by natural ties of race, color and speech, were at the cross roads. It was obvious that the plans of the faraway empire of Japan were counter to the principal policies of the French in the Pacific for the Far East. Was Great Britain, for reasons, of political and commercial expedition, to continue this situation, and, undoubtedly thereby, aggrivate it by pledging herself again in alliance with Japan, and, indirectly herself indirectly against the United States in this dangerous situation.
So the crux of the situation which has resulted in the forthcoming Washington conference, narrowed down from the broad description of "the Pacific and the Far East," was Japan.
The Imperial conference of British Dominion Premiers was meeting in London with the heads of the home government the latter part of June and in the early days of last July. And while there was never an indict, confidentially, this indirect effect by any administration spokesman, every well-formed newspaper correspondent in Washington knew that the United States government was utterly opposed to a renewal of the war against Japanese Alliance, the principal question in the Imperial conference.
When the Prime Ministers of the British Dominions went to London for the Imperial conference, Premier Meighen, of Canada, announced in no uncertain terms that Canada was opposed to a renewal of the peace pledge Alliance and that in this ques- tion she interests with those of the United States.
Premier Hughes
ad to favor the Alliance, white,
Massey, of New Zealand, apparently
was waving between opposition to
the Alliance and favoring it. Premier
Meighan remained adamant in his
opposition to the Alliance. He served
notice on the British government that
if the Alliance were renewed he would
take the question before the Canadian
Parliament. For a Dominion to pass
on a high question of Imperial British
policy was unoffered, of its bordered almost on a declaration of independence, and the statesmen of the British government were thrown into a fright.
The interests of the Pacific Domin-
ions were in common with those of the
United States in the Pacific. In a
1960 interview with the author, did
they not bar Japanese immigration
from their shores as did the United States, with even more rigid restrictions?
There is no doubt that high officials of this government were privately gratified at this attitude of the Dominion Premiers, and there is also no doubt that this government, not officially, but in fact, was looking to the Dominion Premiers in London to save the situation. The following signification at the unpublished exhibition shows the trend of the American government's opinion in the days just preceding the calling of the Washington conference;
The question of creating a main battleship fleet in the Pacific, by concentrating either all or the most powerful of the American battleships on the west coast, was up for decision by President Harding and his cabinet with the writer one day, a high official of the government said, in substance:
"I am strongly in favor of this move. It wouldn't be a step directed against Japan, but the question is simply one of insuring that we are looking to the Dominion Premiers in London to protect our interests."
Because of the delicate diplomatic situation, this question is understood to have been passed upon by Secretary Hughes, and the Navy Department's plans are believed to have been moderated, so that only the newest and most powerful of the American drednaughts, the oil-burning types, were sent out to coastal Pacific, to re-enter to older battleships. But, in effect, a main battleship fleet was regarded here as having been created in the Pacific.
During the meeting of the Imperial conference in London, Secretary Hughes is understood to have made plain to Great Britain, through his conversations here with British Ambassador Geddes and in similar conversations which Ambassador Harvey, acting on instructions from Washington, had in London with leaders of the British government, the feeling of opposition in this country to the Anglo-Japanese Alliance.
This little ad cost only 50 cents:
Meanwhile, the British government had ruled that the Alliance, in accordance with its terms, was to continue automatically for another year, but there was no decision on its continuance for a future terms of eyers.
Ambassador Harvey had been privately "feeling out" the British government and representatives of other powers on the disarmament question, and soon after the Pacific and Far Eastern situation was being anxiously discussed. The two questions seemed to dove-tail into the present conference to be held here on these two great problems.
Later, Lord Curzon, the British Secretary for Foreign Affairs, conferred with Ambassador Harvey, and, recognizing the dilemma of his government, is understood to have declared that Great Britain was ready to have a franck in Washington. The United States, Harvey reported to Secretary Hughes that Great Britain was ready for a conference.
Hughes is understood to have received that cable on the morning of Saturday, July 9. Shortly after, he went to the White House with Harvey's dispatch. The decision to call the conference was reached in an hour's conference with President Harding. Hughes came away and his community answered, acknowledging that a president was prepared to call a conference on limitation of
call a conference on limitation of armament and Pacific and Far Eastern problems, and asking if they would accept a formal invitation. The announcement to the press was made the next day.
But it brought the owner of the house more than a score of answers and rented the house the next day.

PRESIDENT HARDING ADDRESSES COLLEGE
William & Mary's Holds Installation Service for Dr. J.
A. C. Chandler
Williamsburg, Va., Oct. 18. (Ungl Press.)—President Harding will walk over the quiet campus which three presidents and many big figures in the nation's history trod as college students, when he comes here tomorrow to speak at the William and Mary College.
The President and Mrs. Harding will make the trip from Washington to Yorktown, Va., on the Mayflower and motor here after breakfast, to attend the installation of Dr. J. A. C. Chandler as president of the college.
Historic reliies of the men who helped lay the foundations of the nation were seen on every hand here, for William and Mary College was made by the Virginia colleges in 1693, and is second only to Harvard in 1894.
Both royalty and pirates contributed to the founding of the college, according to the archives. King William and Queen Mary supported the building of land at a yearly rent of two Latin verses. A band of pirates, in return for being pardoned
by the colonial governor, who was raising the college funds, contributed three hundred pounds.
Three president of the United States, Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe and John Tyler, attended the college. Chief Justice Marshall, and three other supreme court justices are on the list of students which also boasts of four signers of the Declaration of Independence, twenty-nine U. S. senators, twenty-two governors, three speakers of the house, ten cabinet members and fifteen members of the Continental congress.
Jamestown, N. Y., Oct. 18—Babe Ruth declared today he would continue to play baseball next year even if he barred him from the major league
RUTH PLAYS DESPITE LANDIS
Ruth indicated that he would organize his own independent team and engage in exhibition games all over the country.
When informed that Judge Landis, high commissioner of baseball, might suspend him from the league for a year because his playing exhibition now violates the rules, Ruth said:
"I will continue to play baseball next year. If I organize my own team however, it won't be a team of outlaws. By that I mean players who have been through the game for some things like playing and game with others. I won't have anything to do with those former Chicago White Sox players who were up in that world's series scandal. My team would be formed of good club fellows, players who are straight but who jumped from the American league."
Beautiful Gifts
If Ruled Out He Will Play Independent Ball
Ruth declared he would go right ahead with his present barn storming trip until Nov. 1.
"I am asking for the best interest of all players," he said. "The rule prohibiting world's series players on exhibitions ought to be changed."
