HAS PREPARED DEFINITE PLAN FOR : NAVAL LIMITATION * _(Continued from First Page.) j status ‘quo might be maintained if that were the desire of the confer- | ence. Also, it is suggested, no naval power would be willing to stap all construction because of the factor of advancement of knowledge in naval engineering which can be carried on only hy building. That phase, it is said, is certain to be given attention. Many other plans are talked about, but there is nothing to indicate that anybody is in the confidence of the American delegation as to what plan it has: to. propose. When that is known, and it is to be publicly an- nounced, it has been stated repeat- edly, when the conferrence meets in open session, an approximation of the extent to which an agreement to cut down naval forces is possible of ' realization may be discernable. * SITUATION IN CHINA PUZZLES NATIONS (Continued from First Page.) r;clt objection is that the Chinese, newly awakening to a keen semse of nationalism, will undoubtedly oppose ' agy such ' suggestions with their : le strength. They have recently j Bome so far as to defaujt on an . im- portant American loas, and to bring down upon themselves s note from the American Stite “Department, largely because they consider the conditions made for refunding this | loan—namely, the imposition of a . spirits and tobacco tsx under for- eign supervision—as an -infringement upon their sovereignty. Any proposals originating in Wash- ington to take China in hand inter- natlonally for its own good, womld, experts " declare, provoke = China's unanimous hostility and lead possibly. to _disorders which could only -be quelled by an expedition of foreign troops. Advocates of the intervention idea, which {8 not unpopular at present in certain American financial. circles, say that China, having failed to ex- hihit the slightest capacity to govern {tself, must be forced to listen to Tedson. ‘Those who oppose the idea reply that the United States does pot want to.become involved in any -forms of co-pperation which may entail the use of ‘American troops abroad, and that Ci has 2 right to try to work-out its own salvation unhampered by for- eign interference. B Fear Serien of Intrigues. They fear that so dong as the for- eign powers have alms in China which are rather. contradictory than har- “monious. any attempt at co-operation’ would end merely in a series of ui pleasant intrigues and in the com- \ plete hostility of the Chinese to all lorelgners, including Americans, who at present are regarded by the Chi- nese as their sole remaining friends. Finally, it is pointed out that so long as the political situation in the far east remains obscure, so long as there Temains the slightest danger of grave misunderstandings_ between the United States and Japafi, the for- mer cannot afford to risk alienating China’s “friendship; for, with Russia politically inexistent, and with Brit- ain still allied to Japan, China Is the only potential ally which the United States has in case of trouble in the far east. Although such a possibility as that of war between Japan and the United States is looked upon askancs, military experts agree that such a war would inevitably extend to the Asiatic mainland, and that in such a contingency China’s friendship would be an asset upon which too high a valuation could scarcely be placed. The problem of how te reconcile China's obvious need of co-operative foreign aid in a financial way with the natural disinclination of the United States either to interfere in China’s internal affairs or to arouse China's enmity unnecessarily is one of the most perplexing with which the principal delegations are now at grips.

The party on the Senate stairs were led up to enter the rotunda by the Benate corridor. Then, just at 8 o'clock, the great main doors, huge bronze barriers embellished with in- tricate figures and designs and long ago given the American republic, strangely enough, by France, on whose soll the soldler died, swung back and the waiting hundreds stepped upward four abreast to pass by the casket. As the first line stepped within the hall, from the group beside the bier where the flowers were belng set in place, male voices rose in blended harmonies that woke the echoes in the high vaulted roof above, now flooded with sunlight. They sang the last verse of “America”: “Long may our land be bright, ‘With freedom's holy light.”” They sang with a peal of victory ana no hint of sorrow. And the last notes dled away down the long corridors to right and left as the line that gave the great public its place in the cere- monies moved slowly on and out the western entrance, down over the ter- raced slopes that face out with the Wwhite gleam of Washington Monument straight ahead, and still behind, seem- ingly cut through the center by th« flutl-hn;‘t, lhe’ Square white bulk of ncoln_Memorial, on_the far bri of the Potomac. % %5 Soldiers as of Brenze. About.the casket on its low base those Who >passed by saw the five sol- dfers, stilf as though carved from bronze in their khaki trappings. At the head, &rms rigid at his sides, his own head bent forward until the tan brim of his eap hid his eyes, stood the non-commissioned officer, the red of his cheyrons coloring his sleeve. At each corner, facing inward toward the center, stood a soldier, rifle butt grounded on the stone flagging, body rigidly erect, but also with head bent forward until cap brim was level with the point of his gleaming bayonet. These soldiers moved not a muscle except at stated intervals when slight changes of position, made simultane- ously, eased the physical strain. Premier Briand and the French’ delegation to-the armament confer- ence, carrying & huge bunch of pink chrysanthemums tied with the tri- color of France, entered the rotunds at 11 o'clock. The premier stood silently for' a moment and then moved out with his party. Many persons in the public line carried floral offerings of their own on which there seldom was a card. In nearly every instance these volutary offerings were carried by a child. Of all those filing through one door and out another, old men and old‘women, the grandparents of some Soidiers perhaps, were the most visibly af- fected, tears streaming down their cheeks as they turned around for a (arfle‘well look at the flower-covered coffin. China Presents Statue. * A three-foot bronze stutue symbol izing the “Angel of Peace” was placed on the catafalque as the gift of the President of the Chinese republic. It ‘was to be unveiled later in the day by the Chinese minister. It was a few minutes of noon when the British delegation, led by Earl Beatty, Sir Arthur Balfour and Am- bassador Geddes, marched into the rotunda from the morth entrance. An officer of the guard approached the catafalque, holding aloft a huge wreath. As the offeri: from the British empire was placed at the side of the coffin, the earl, the former remier and the ambassador stepped ack and & Scot, his head held high, moved forward with the first tribute jfrom the British possessions.

Woodside. |, "My comrage. we each of us. feel a though you are the comrade who feil® | fAghting at our side, as we stood in the trenches, or as we were advanc- ing across no fawsland In those duys there was little thought of self. Our ome thought was that, through us, America might lead the world spreading democracy among.the ma- tions of the earth. “Here at your shrine, your comrades of the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States renew their obliga- tion of true allegiance to the United States of America, and may we ever | e Toyal thereto.” We dedicate our lives to the service of our coumtry in poace as we did in war. May we al- | ¥ays remember our duty to the be- reaved mothers and widows of our departed comrades. This is their day. | May our love and sympathy go out to those who lost their dear ones in the roll of honored dead eves.
