THE CHINA
NAVAL CONFERENCE.
Fertile Ground for Study.
DIPLOMATS IN REVIEW.
"Diplomacy may be easy on the brain, but it's rough on the feet," Is one of the innumerable bone mots attributed to General Dawes, Perhaps feat 'are not used quite so much in diplomacy as the American Ambassador suggests, but his meaning is clear, says Sidney Huddleston in the Chris- tian Selence Monitor. There are fleets of automobiles-or motor- cars-and plenty of elevators----- or lifts-and walking is not real- ly obligatory. Nevertheless, naval diplomacy at London seems to be just one visit after another. It consists in coming and going, ex- cept when It consists in going and coming.
Andre Tardieu
Of all the comers and goers, Andre Tardieu easily holds the rocord. With him it is not mere- ly a question of whether he is tu the Ritz, or the Carlton, or Down- ing Street, or St. James's Palace. It is a question of whether he is in London or Paris. He is hero to-day and gone to-morrow.
Paris and London are, after all,
not for apart. And this is true both in a geographical and a diplomatic sense. In spite of the and the apparent fixity of French de- mands, there is relatively little doubt about the possibility of eventual accord. France certainly knows what it wants, and from the beginning M. Tardieu han dominated the conference by his vigorous personality. Whether we like or dislike his claims we must, certainly admire hia directness of
clearness of French views
