THE CONFERENCE.
Washingotu, Nav, 15. The Conference's decision to consider China's case before pro- ceeding with other points caused same surprise, but it is recognised that many ultimate problems are closely connected with China and cannot well be settled before her case is thoroughly reviewed and regularized. Discussing the Chinese memorandum with the -Chinese.delegates. Reuter was informed that on the whole they are pleased with the reception accorded it, though they somewhat resën. what they term the crop of surmises and illogical deductions which it has aroused in the American press. China, in presenting such a broadly modelled document, wished to avail herself of the oppor tunity to define clearly her position ris-a-vis the other Powers.
China's Alm.
י
China's aim at present is to raise and restore China as a Republic to her proper equal place among the nations. The delegates are of epinion that once the principles in the memorandum are recognis ed officially their consequenca can be developed gradually. China is in no hurry to put into efect the stipulations contained therein and hopes first to settle internal affairs supported by added prestige in the comity of nations. There is no doubt that the delegates expect France and Britain to suggest modifications to the proposals.

Disappointing.
Mr. Ma Soo describes the Peking delegation proposals as dis- tinetly disappointing. He declared the Chinese wanted action which would lead to the restitution of Chinese rights, particularly the return of Shantung, Manchuria, Inner Mongolia and Tibet: the abrogation of the well-known Twenty One Demands of the 1918 agreement and a series of Sino-Japanese secret treaties; renuncia. tion of obnoxious spheres of infuence and withdrawal of foreign garrisons.

There is a disposition at Washington to regard China's proposals for solation of her problems as approximating very closely America's ideas. Chinese delegates deny that any white man was concerned in formulating their ten points but according to one correspondent, it is recognised that "some of the language closely resembles some of the things used in American notes in the past few years," while others go as far as to mention the former Secretary of State Lansing in this connection. It is contended on the American not com. side that the point in the statement which bars treaties municated to Chica and not including her as a party definitely raises the
the Anglo-Japanese treaty, but it remains to be seep if this view pressed authoritatively.
Japan's Attitude.
ני
As to Japan's attitude the report gees that she may support the fundamentals of the Chinese proposals provided she can safeguard herself against possible boycott which will cut her off from vitally needed raw materials on the Asiatic Continent. The Japanese made an excellent impression on the Yap question, which is reported as virtually settled, thanks to the co-operation of Saidehara. Also, the Japanese are understood to be much less stubborn about Shap- tung than expected.
Extendating Circumstances.
London, Nov. 13.
An account of Mr. Hughes' speech at the opening of the Far Eastern Committee says that he suggested extenuating circum- stances for China's present position owing to the recent changed form of Government. He recalled this in connection with America's dishevelled condition after the revolution and before all the States accepted the present constitution. Upon the principle of the open door, he is reported to have said that when opened Japan would stand on the threshold and be the first to prost under the system of equal opportunity.
Submarines.
Washington. Nov. 13. British suggestions for limitation of tonnage and size of sub- marines are apparently not acceptable to America, in view of the fact that she would have to protect 63,000 kilometres of coast with a heavily reduced feet The American authorities dispute the sug gestion that submarines are more likely than surface vessels to be sed contrary to the rules of civilized warfare. Also, there is little hope of America agreeing to limitation of the size of submarines.
A Knotty Point.
London, Nov. 18.
There are indications that the submarine question is likely to prove a knotty point in any settlement of the naval limitation scheme. Keen observers on the spot at Washington surmise that Britain will agree to a complete decade aaval holiday in return for some reduc- tion in submarine tonnage under Mr. Hazhes" plan. The reluctant attitude of America towards limitation of tonnage in the size of submarines is rather attributed to her naval experts than the general public who, it is believed, approve Mr. Balfour's proposal notably Senator Borah, the originator of the Bill authorising the Conference. It is furthermore declared that the British desire to strengthen the American scheme by scrapping plant and material necessary for making ships and guns except so far as is necessary for repair of a reduced fleet or the replacement of an ed in producing a material which accidentally destroyed unit.
