To under: nd the many fine points of the coming conferenée, to read between the lines of formal statements and diplomatically toned speeches, the average American who doesn't follow the intricacies of diplo- macy will do well to bear in mind certain facts which have been develop- ing slowly in recent months but which when pieced together, remoye entire the veil of mystery from the proceed- ings which to witness ! here. In tho first place, without detract- ing in the least trom the lofty spirt | which actuated President Harding in summoning the conference of powers, it is important to disclose just how the meeting happened to’ be called. Events fomced the issue—events, in- deed, over which the United States did not have complete control. Here is the inside story: President Harding told the Amer- jean people as soon as he took office What he wanted to put America’s / Ouse in order first before tackling yauestions of foreign policy. He hon- estly believed it could be done. Mr. Wilson as President had given first + nsideration to foreign polity, had| ne overseas himself to help settle it, | jo taxation and after-the-war eco- le issues developed intense Irrita- pn at home.

Just then Browne stepped up to a door leading inside and tried the knob. process server started to go through. “Don't go in there,” said the at- tendant, seizing Browne by the arm and trying to haul him back, Meanwhile Charles F.

Browne was the stronger, and he jammed his way through the door. Thereupon Mr. Kerrigan placed his back against the door leading to the Comptroller's private office and in- vited the realty man to state his busi- ness, At this point Deutsch called Browne outside, and they decided to attempt service on Mr. Craig when he went down to hic automobile.

Some day the first of next week a gentle little gray-haired Japanese woman in her ninetieth year will wind her way up the steps of the White House to visit President Hard- ing. She is Mme, Kaji Yajima, who has come to attend the Conference for the Limitation of Armament with the petition signed by ten thousand Japanese women for world peace and understanding between nations. ‘The petition is a big roll, one hun- dred yards long, but, Mme. Yajima will carry it herself, although she will be accompanied by her secre- tary Moriya, and her interpreter, Mrs, Topping, wife of Dr. Henry Topping, for twenty-tive years in educational work in Japan for the Baptist Board of Missions.
