He asserted it would show no consideration or ac- ceptance of any position not éntirely consistent with the traditional policies of the American government. Needs No Comment The four power pact itself requires no commentary, the secretary said, adding that no ingenuity in argument it or or hostile criticism can add to make its engagentents ‘‘greater than its unequivocal language sets forth." There are no secret notes or un- derstandings, he asserted. Favored by Underwood Describing the four power Pacific treaty as “the real treaty of peace’ the arms conference, Senator Under- wood of Alabama, the democratic senate leader and a member of the American delegation to the conference told the senate today that he would vote for the pact's ratification in the | same spirit which actuated him to support the treaty of Versailles and the league of nations. The real issue, the democratic lead- er declared was whether the United States was ready to give its sanction to an arrangement for ‘“‘peace by mu- tual understanding” or desired to con- tinue “the opportunity for war that but this four power treaty is the real cades.” Not an Alliance Mr. Underwood asserted that he did not regard the treaty as an alliance but added that even if it were, and were founded on arbitration rather than force, he would support it. To argue, on the other hand, that be- cause it was not based on force, it was valueless was declared by the senator to be reverting to the phil- osophy of past ages. says Treaty Necessary. Recounting how he had supported the league of nations, he said he had approached the work of the arms conference ready to welcome any new effort to establish peace by interna- tional understanding rather than by the power of the sword. “fhe four power treaty,” he con- tinued, “represents a political settle- ment which undoubtedly was neces- sary before the treaty providing for the limitation of armaments was signed; that is, if the agreement to (Continued on Twelfth Page).

Y., March 11.—Un- der certain conditions radio waves might travel more easily through the ground or the waters of the sca than through the air, it was said today by Dr. Charles P. Steinmetz, chief consulting engincer for the General Electric Co.

In like man- ner, he pointed out water might serve as a medium for radio conversations between ships or between ships and land. Wireless telephony, it was said by associates of Dr. Steinmetz had been revolutionized by the successful per- formances of the duplex transmitters, completed early this week when con- versations were held between New Yorks and passengers aboard the steamer America al the time a dis- tance of 360 miles at sea. The duplex telephone enables land lines to be linked in with the radio so that one might talk over his own home telephone to persons far at sea.
