SAYSU.S.GAVEP RCHT INPACFC Norman H. Davis Declares * England and Japan Gain All by Treaties. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, February 18.—Criti- cism of the Washington conference on armament and far eastern ques- tions was voiced in an address last night by Norman H. Davis, former undersecretary of state, who said it had been “anything but an American diplomatic victory.” Mr. Davis, speaking _before the Council on Foreign Relations, center- ed his attack upon the four-power treaty, which, he declared, left the British and Japanese fleets in control of the far east. It also would seem, he argued, that instead of getting rid of the Anglo-Japanese alliance, the United States “had entered it en- larged it and changed the territory covered by it.” Through the treaty, he said, Japan obtained from the United States a pledge of good behavior in the Pa- cific without giving a reciprocal as- surance. Leading Into Alliances. America’s_entry into the pact. he added. might lead this country into the European system of alliances, such as have made wars general in- stead of localized, rather than toward the league of nations, or “any other genuine association of nations.” In signing the treaty, England, France and Japan agreed to nothing whatever except that for which they were -already bound as members of the league of nations, Mr. Davis as- serted, “unless it be that it is an al- liance’ meaning more than its ad- vocates contend, and that article 1T of the four-power treaty is more binding upon them than article X of the covenant of the league of na- tions." Mr. Davis asked if it was not very probable that the Chinese and Rus- sian peoples might conclude that the United States had “abandoned our in- dependence of action and traditional friendship for them by entering into a pact with their oppressors?* All Should Have Been Invited It was difficult to see any objection to inviting all of the nations, instead of only four of them, to join the pact, Mr. Davis said. The answer, he as- sumed, might be that through the league of nations they already had agreed to confer, not oply on Pacific questions, but on those in any other portion of the world. “Certuinly, Holland, Portugal, China and Russia (when there is a recog- nized Russian government), all of whom have vital interests in the Pa- cific, should be parties to this treaty, and why should Italy have been left out?” Mr. Davis continued. The representative ratio of naval strength fixed at Washington certain- Iy would be upset, he declared, by any subsequent alliance entered into by ore of the powers parties to the new naval treaty. It would have been wise, he thought, to have prohibited any party to the treaty from making an” alliance or agreement with one or more of the other members. Minds Functioned Differently: “Some minds functioned differently in respect-to questions in Asia, seven thousand_miles to the west of us, than in Europe—three thousand miles 1o the east.” he said. “Future develop- ments may, it is hoped, enable a shortening of mental range, even to the extent of realizing that questions in Europe rx\lay‘:avo‘nzc‘)s( import- elation to those in Asia and eve: He FaAncBant ana fo World beace.” ©One could not look for peace in the far east, he continued, until settle- ment was made of certain questions left unsettled at Washington. Among these Mr. Davis cited Japanese occu- pation of Vladivostok and the north- ern half of the island of Sakhalien. Another unsettled question named by the speaker was that of Japan's famous twenty-one demands of 1915. He asserted no progress had been made toward removing obstacles that prevent prosperous operation of the Chinese Eastern railway, and would make a “joke” of the open door. These obstacles he specified as the inability of the interallied committee operating the Chinese Eastern railway to extend its control over the Ussuri railway, now in control of Japan, which con- nects with the Vladivostok terminus of the Chinese Eastern, .nor over its other outlet at Port Arthur, the ter- minus of the South Manchurian rail- way, also under Japanese control. Obligation to Use Force. Mr. Davis observed the existence of fear that the United States may be morally obligated under the four-power treaty to use force, and said that al- though Senator Lodge had explained that no such obligation existed, the ~enator, in so far as he knew, had not made clear just what “our obligation is not to use force.” He sald he was doubtful of the “ef- ficacy or wisdom of this country sur- rendering its _inalienable _sovereign vight to use force until the United States forms a part of some world- wide machinery, including all the po: ers, large and small, for securing jus tice and respect for rights without the necessity of resorting to force.” In explanation of ais statement that the four-pawer treaty left the British and Japanese navies in control of the far east. Mr. Davis said: “The United States is not permitted 1o increase fortifications at Guam and the Philjppines, which in effect confines ogr ~ naval operations to erican waters. England, being permitted to in- crease her naval bases at Singapore, Australia and New Zealand, may trans- fer a large part of her fleet there.” “The hope for peace,” he said, “rests not in this four-power pact, but, it an; where, in the will of the Japanese peo- ple for co-operation and peace, and their ability to reverse the imperialistic pol- icy. initiated by the militaristic party. “If the military party maintains con- trol of Japan and continues its past policy in respect to Manchuria, Siberia and Sakhalien, the four-power treaty, as it now stands, may simply tie our hands, protect the Japanese rear and encourage that party to proceed all the more vigor- ously with the aggressive policies on the Asiatic mainland.” PLAN RIFLE MATCHES.

GRANE'S EX-WIFE SAYS HE'S ROVER Miss Piza Defends Her Right to Custody of Their Child. By the Associated Press. GENEVA, Ill, February 18.—Attor- neys for Miss Elida Piza, former wife of Herbert Crane, wealthy iron manu- facturer, has flled her answer to Mr. Crane’s bill in which he demanded that the child born to the couple be returned by Miss Piza from New York to the jurisdiction of the Kane county court. - Miss Piza asserted Mr. Crane was “by nature a rover and social ma- rauder” and not a fit custodian for the child. She called attention to a previous divorce in which Crane fea- tured, and asserted he had been named as co-respondent in another action. Mr. Crane had evinced no interest in his family and had taken no interest in the child in the pest, the bill said. custody of the child, but wished to harass Miss Piza and the court. can and remove the child from the court’s jurisdiction. As further evi- dence that Crane was not fit to have custody of the child, she asserted he had failed to pay her an alimony claim of $70,000. Attorneys for Crane responded wich arguments that Crane’s liie prior to his divorce from Miss Piza could not be considered as evidence, as the court in Eranting the digorce evzee ha ruled at that time that both were fit persons to have custody of the child. Mr. Crane's conduct since the dlvorce is all that can be considered, his at- torneys claimed. Arguments on their contention will. be heard February 2}.

Lack of the vise will prevent her landing in Japan, it was said. The Japanese department of home affairs, through the foreign office, is- sued the order, according to Consul General §. Yada. He sald Mrs. Sanger would be allowed to book passage upon a Japanese steamship, but that she could not set foot on Japanese Mvs. Sanger, not havin® tHe Broper passport vises, was refused a ticket on the Japanese steamer Taiyo Maru, sailing from this port January 21 fr.

Mrs. Sanger said she intends to sail aboard the steamer whether her pass- port is vised or not and take chances of being able to effect a landing In Japan. “Without doubt, the Japanese gov- ernment feels my lectures in _their uniyersities would be in direct op- position to their theories of mili- tarism, which they have fostered in the past and still continue to foster,” Mrs. Sanger said. Consul ‘General Yada declared in a statement that the Japanese govern- ment’ for some time has been op- posed _to - propaganda “of the sort Mrs. Sanger-is reported to spread.” He sald he: presumed that was the reason he had been ordered not to vise her passport. —_— WOMAN SERIOUSLY HURT WHEN HIT BY STREET CAR i G = Miss Mary Jane Forsyth, Aged 65, Suffers Fractured Skull. Other Accidents. Miss Mary.Jane Forsyth, sixty-five years old, 1802 Belmont road, was knocked down last night by a Cap- ital Traction car and so seriously hurt that physicians at Emergency Hos- pital, where she was taken, were un- able to hold out any hope for her re- covery. Her skull was fractured. Miss Forsyth left her home early in the evening to attend Friday night service in St. Paul's Church, 15th and V streets. Leaving the sidewalk in front of 1612 U street, she started to cross the tracks and was struck, knocked down and gged a short distance before Motorman Harry D. Bradshaw_could bring his car to e stop. b Conductor Arthur Kimball and pas- sengers in_ the car assisted Miss Forsyth and cared for her until tae arrival of a police patrol wagon, when ken to the hospital. Miss Forsyth’s father was the late William Forsyth, who was Digtrict surveyer many years ago. 5 Miss Forsyth resided with her nephew, Willlam J. Forsyth, at the Belmont road address. Miss Mary A. Forsyth, & niece, who also lived with her, was killed in the Knickerbocker Theater disaster three weeks ago.

MADISON, Wis,, February 18—E. A. Birge, president of the University of Wisconsin, has replied to as- sertions of Willlam J. Bryan, made here a year ago and repeated re- cently, that he is an “atheist” and unfit teacher for students because of his acceptance of modern science, in- cluding the theory of evolution. Mr. Bryan had objected to expres- sions of President Birge that his teach- ings were causing injury to religion be- cause of his attempt to unite the teach- ings of the Bible to “discredited scien- tific hypothesises,” and he. had declared that “when the people of Wisconsin have enough money to pay the salary of a university president they expected to find some one who will not ridicule the religion of the parents and grandparents of the students.” In a letter to Rev. E. S. Worcester. pastor of the First Congregational Church, of which President Birge has been an officer for forty Years, he reasserted expressions made to Mr. {Bryan following his, spesch to stu- dents here, declaring that he had “never found it necessarw to just religion to science or excuse science to religion.” Both Are Accepted. “I have accepted both as equally divine revelations and bota as cqually wrought _into the constitutioa of the world,” President Birge said. ®Mr. Bryan reemed to dislike espe- | cially my objecting to his uniting religlon to a ‘discredited scientific hypothesis.” T think that the histor of the church gives go>d kround for my objection. In the fiftecnth cen- tury people were told that the doc- trine of a round world was ‘atheistlc,’ and a century or so laier the co- pernican astronomy was called ‘athe- | istic’ In the nineteen‘h century evo- lution, in a like manner, was called ‘atheistic’ by men of whon Mr. Bryan | is a belated follower. i “Did such teachings help religign in | = the past, and is there any good reason | to think that Mr. Bryan will succeed | where his predeceessors have failed dis- | mally during four centuries? Another | thing that seems to trouble Mr. Bryvan is the fact that I told him that his teachings were ‘atheistic’ rather than the teachings of evolution. I had a real meaning and purpose in thus calling the attention of Mr. Bryan definitely and sharply to the religious harm that may come from his teachings. | _“Now,.if St. Paul was right, if God is to be sought for and found in the | teachings that ‘are not far from even-] jone of us’’ then those who urge us rather to look for God's creative activ-} {ity in the remote past ‘do err. not know- | ing the Scriptures nor the power of God. } They are turning the seeker for God | {from .the right track and putting him | jon one that is only too likely to lead him | d. i Effect of Teachings. “The harmful effect of such teachings {was clearly seen in many of those who | {used to oppose evolution.
