MUST PREVENT WAR IN EAST BAN FRANCISCO, July i0.—What wi stylod “The First Pucific conference’ opeéned on the exposition grounds here today under the auspices of the Asiatic institute. The object bf the conference I8 to determine the basis of a congress of the Pacific, which should seek the mutual co-operation of the nations of the Pacific urea for common ends. A number of men who have been promi- nently identified with the problems of the Pacific are to be heard, either in person or throtigh letters, including Dr. Charles W. Eliot, president emeritus of | Harvard; David Starr Jordan, chancellor | of Teland Stanford university: Mabel T. Boardman, the chairman of the American Red Cross: United States Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts and Sid- ney, L. Gulick, missionary and author. According to a discussion of the situa- tion by Dr. Eliot, which was read at the conference, conditions should be ripe for & Pacific congress in the early summer of 1816, “because the results of the European war on Intarnational relations and op trdde ‘between the Occldent and Orfent will, by that time, have become manifest.” Dr. Eliot suggested that Homolulu would be a good place for the congress, and that the prinecipal coun- tries about the Pacific ocean should be ters of mutual interest. ‘The success of any such congress would depend upon the general acceptance of certain principles of universal applica- tion, he sald, ch as the policy of the ‘open door,” and a league of Pacific | powers to secure peace and the freedom of the ocean. Wil Prayent War in East, According to Dr. Gulick, & “‘great war be- tween the east and west” was threatening. Some steps must be taken, he sald, for inducing the nations to return to China what had been taken from it. “If the west forces China into agressive mili- tarism, and if China ls compelied to seek safety and justice at the paint of the bayonet, the future of the world is in- deed ominous,” he said. fidious course of the United States in violating ita treaties with China and Japan,” and asked: “If we maintain that the United States was justified in its disregard of it treaty with China, what right have we to condemn Germany for its dimregard of its treaty with Belgium? The degree of the oconee- Quences, Indeed, differ enormously, but are not the moral issues identical?” Referring to the relations of this coun- try with Japan, he sald that “indefinite continuation of Japanese patience under treatment regurded as humiliating is not to be assumed. If America desires to maintain the historic friendship with Japan and do it justice, we must first of all understand the real point of its contentlon. advantages or opportunity, but human Justice, respect of Jupanese as men.
