It is that, spurred on by the knowledge of such a partnership, the Japanese have assumed an atti- tude toward China wherein Ameri- can, French, British, German and Rusatan interests were likely to be injured. Of course, the moment, Germany and Russia are out of it; but essentlalls it is the grouping of Europe and America on the one hand and Japan on the other. Would England stand by her Euro- u permanently concord and compel - her military leaders to refrain from acts which spelled ultimate domination of China and eastern Asia?

Britain was too much absorbed in domestic troubles to disturb Japan's pretensions, while the United States was not inclined to go to war over China’s plight. > and her people already sick of war expenditure. _Japan. however, had expended little “money during the war and was near enough to China to offer the Japanese imperialist golden opportunities for commercial gain by exploiting China's resources. Great Britain counseled against the abrupt cancellation of the Anglo- Japanese alliance. Couldn't some other way be found to accomplish _the same end and at the same time prevent Japanese aggression? Di- plomacy moves in strange ways its wonders to perform. Couldn't the United States lend a helping hand? Sentiment Against Arms. Just about the same time that the imperial conference was meeting in London and the premier of Candda wa# expressing himself frankly on the subject of renewing the Anglo- . Japanese alliance, public sentiment in the United States was being mar- shaled in favor of a reduction of rmament. _Senator- Borah's pleas were being heeded. The tax burden was so heavy that the calling of an armament conference to stop the race in armaments was advocated on every side. President Harding didn't favor the Borah resolution because it limit- ed the conference merely to Great Britain, the United States and Japan. . He Insisted that it ought to include all_the major powers. Then it was that an unwritten but significant chapter developed in Lon- don. President Harding admitted publicly that he had been sounding out the powers on the subject of an armament conference. Ambassador Harvey was intrusted with that mis- sion.

The initiative will come from the United States and we will not be in the position of of- fending Japan.” So President Harding issued the call. Curlously enough, the publicity was somewhat bungled, that is, from the European viewpoint—something that doesn’t happen often. Before the formal call was issued by President Harding—two days, to be exact— Prime Minister Lloyd George almost let the cat out of the bag by re- ferring mysteriously to a diplomatic note which had been sent to the|gawa, president of the house of peers. i > > . = The del: L 111 b ived * . .
