By the lead it took in the arms con- ference, the secretary said, and by fts efforts toward harmony among the nations of the western hemisphere, the American government during the past 20 months has set a record of accomplishment far beyond what was expected of it when the new adminis- tration came into power. So far as Europe is concerned, Mr. Hughes declared, President Harding and his advisers always have been ready to lend a helping hand where it would do the most good, but are not willing to fritter away the influence of the United States by intervention in controversies that are rooted in age-old national rivalries. The Trouble With Europe. “The chief trouble at this time g Europe,” he continued, “is that t great powers have not been able to agree as to questions which, being distinctly European questions, directly concern them, and their want of agreement is due o different concep- tions of essential national policy. For us, international co-operation does not mean that we should embroil our- selves in controversies not involving our own interests.” The secretary added that he be- lteved a way might be found for the United States to participate formally “in the selection of judges to the re- cently organized International Court of Justice, a project which from the first had had the sympathy of this sovernment. He declared that al- ready in'a humanitarian way and through the channels of trade the United States was really giving ajid of a value incalculable. He praised the QUESTION: How do good cooks make such delicious hot mince pies? ANSWER: If you mean modern cooks, the majority of | the constructive program of the ad- e armd conference agreements as mean- ing “the rescue of the world from de- spair” and predicted that despite the present delay the Washington treaties would be ratified by all the powers aignatory to them. Ultimate fallure of the conference program, he asserted, had been precluded in any case by the ratifications already voted by the United States, Great Britain and Ja- pan. Other Accomplishments. Among the other accomplishments reviewed by Mr, Hughes as a part of ministration were the negotiations of a peace treaty with Germany, the Yap agreement protecting American interests in the mandate islands of the Pacific, the reorganization of Cuba's finances, the Tacna-Arica ar- bitration agreement between Chile and Peru, the calling of a conference here of Central American republics, and the stabilization of Haiti and Santo Domingo. Toward the people of Mexico, the secretary sald, the United States en- tertains only the friendliest senti- ments although it is unwilling to rec- ognize any Mexican internal policy based upon conflscatory measures against forcigners. He alluded also to the Near Eastern situation, repeat- ing the declaration that the Ameri- can government, although interested deeply in some phases of the Near!| Eastern settlement, can not appropri- ately attend the Lausanne peace con- | ference because it was called to set- tle a war. to which the United States was not a party. Secretary Hughes began his address with a eulogy to Senator Henry Ca- bot Lodge, chairman of the Commit- tee on Foreign Relations and repub- lican leader of the Senate. Mr. | Lodge's defeat by his Massachusetts constituency at the November elec- tion, the secretary declared, would be | not only a loss to the state but “an| irreparable loss to the nation.” Administration Policies. In his discussion of the policies of the administration, Mr. Hughes said: “'Of course, there have been differ- | ences of view, freely expressed. That is a wholesome sign; there have been no attempt to establish a one man| rule. The Executive has fully appre- ciated the great powers confided to him by the Constitution and he is ex- ercising them. “The American government is being conducted without usurpation and| with the proper influence and power of effective and constitutional leader- ship. That is the reason wasteful ex- penditures have been cut, necessary economies enforced, efficiency vastly increased, and our great national | concerns safeguarded. *This method and result are due to the spirit and purpose which have dominated the Administration. They are due to the sagacity, the steadi-! ness, the inexhaustible energy, the| constant labors, the intimate know- ledge of human nature as well as of governmental affalrs, the immediate and just appraisement of difficult sit- uations, the courteous consideration and kindly disposition, and especially the .untiring. zest for the public inter- est which characterize our chiet, Warren G. Harding, the President of the United States. Was Bad Tangle. “It would be difficult to imagine a worse tangle in our foreign relations than that with which this Adminis- tration was required to deal. It took office two years and nearly four months after the Armistice, but we were yet at war. The peace negotia- tions had evoked a bitter and undy- ing controversy. It had been patent, I think to those who had endeavored to.estimate the public judgment that the American people would never consent to assume any obligation, moral or legal, which would fetter their appropriate freedom of action in unknown contingencies. ““While we have been justly solicl- IR o vt s A v tous of American rights and Interests In every part of the world, we have been eager to do all within our pow- er, in accordance with the genius of our institutions, to promote peaceful settlements and international cooper- atlon. We favor, and always have favored, an international court ot Justice for the determination accord- ing to fudiclal standards of judiciable international” disputes. “I belleve that suitable arrange- ments can be made for the participa- tion by this government in the elec- tion of judges of the International Court which has been set up, so that this government may give its formal support to that court as an independ- ent tribunal of international justice. To suppert an {institution yon must Lave proper provision for a voice in its constitution, and I think that pro- vision to this end can be made, Europe's Pressing Problems, “The fundamental and pressing problems of Europe are political problems involving national hopes| and fears; deep-seated convictions as to national safety and opportunity; national ambitions, in seme cases long cherished, in others recently awakened; established policies gwhich have become npostulates in the| thought of peoples. The reason that| the main problem of Kurope cannot be solved, save as Kurope helps her- self, lles in the fact that each major difficulty centers in the self-determ- ined actlon of independent states and | is beyond external control.

It is recognized that nothing can be done without the consent of the Powers directly con- cerned and that they are not ready to consent. Naval Limitations “But while the question of reduc- tion in land armaments could not be solved because of conditions in Eu- rop-. there was an opportunity pre- sented to us, because of our speclal relation to the matter, to deal with the question of naval armament and to stop the naval competition upon purposes than Justified, wag which we had entered Britain and Japan “The conference on this subject not only furnished an opportunity for, hut the exlgeney required, the tion of Iar Kastern problems. this administration came into power the air was rife with rumors, and the pseudo-patriots, who make it business to stir up suspicion and dis trust by attacks upon the motives and peoples, w at “Then, of other work with a larger measure of suce any actual negotiatiated with Gre; Whe point of the considera their difference It was one of those condf tions which require thesimmediate ap plication of preventative medicine, and |late yesterday afternoon from injur- this was applied. and of outstanding signifi cance in the interest of peace, there | mjles south of here at noon in [four- Power [attempt to avold a collision with an- treaty, which, without committing the | ather machine, crashed into a i'nited States to any alliance, | ¥ *'|WOMAN DEAD, 4 HURT IN MOTOR CAR WRECK n Mrs, W, R, Watson Succumbs to In- juries Recelved in Crash Near Ponghkeepsic, Poughkeepsie, N.

Criticism Ts Complaint “There is some tendency, on the part of our critics to comment cyn- fcally upon the fact that the confer- ence treatlies have not yet been rati- fied by all the powers and hence are| not yet in effect. This comment is really a tribute, for it only serves to emphasize the importance of the con- ference and its achievements and how much would he lost if the treaties failed. 'Well, T think they need not go into mourning as yet. The treaties, in my opinion, are not going to fail. “'Great Britain and Japan have rati- fied all the treaties as has the three great naval powers which were in competition—the United States, Great Britain and Japan—have done - all within their power to make the action of the conference effective.
