D., was at the head of the guests' table. Gen. Edwards, the principal speaker, came from Boston to speak to the newly organized club here. He spoke at length on the activities and work of the Y. D. in France, where, he said, no other division surpassed the 26th in taking ground or heroic work. “Our division came into being August 13, 1917, and in less than a month it was on the water, training in France,” sald Gen. Edwards. “We learned the meaning of superiority of the air. We learned the lesson that unless we gain the supremacy we do not de- serve to remain a Nation. There Is one way open now to gain the su- premacy of the alr and keep it, and that is by the growth of the airship. the Japanese delegates at the con- terence gave too much at the behest of the other powers. He asserted, without ornamental phraseblogy, that “the conference was highly beneficial to all parties, stopped the competition in capital ships and removed suspi- clous intentions of Japan against China. It also manifested to the most captious eritic Japan's sincerity, while in the Pacific the cloud of est which at one time had gathered, had glven way to an atmosphere. of peace, friendship and mutual eo-operation.” Baron Shidehara concluded with. the remark that the Washington confer- ence was the. birthday of a mew. spirit of reason, courage, tolerance and sympathy. He sald that good will was an_essential condition of all high accomplishment. (Copyright, 1925, by Chicago Daily News Co.) Music Club to Hear Opera Talk. Charles D.
