ANGLO-JAPANESE TREATY.

London, May 21.

The Australian Premior, Mr. Hughes, in a most important speech on Empire policy, declared that the Anglo-Japanese Treaty must be renewed in some form and modified, if that was deemed proper by the forthcoming conference of Empire Premiers, to make it acceptable to Britain, America, Japan and Australia. He said: "I do not think that is impossible. "I think the interests of Aus- tralia lie in a renewal of the Treaty,"

not

Mr. Hughes said the Imperial Conference was called specially to deal with Empire naval defence. Until recently the Dominions had no voice in the Empire's foreign policy. That was right, be- cause the policy was defended by the Navy, which Britain owned and maintained, therefore a voice in the foreign policy was justified. Statesmen of Britain were the first to recognise that the Dominions should be consulted on future foreign policy, because out of that policy, wars were hatched. "Britain has told us plainly that she cannot longer bear the expense of maintaining a great Navy, and the Dominions must share the burden. No request could be more reasonable."

"Any scheme of Imperial naval defence must provide for de- fence in the Pacific Ocean. That is vital to Australia. We are very near to the overcrowded East and we cannot be indifferent to what the great Easterners are doing. We must ensure that our acts and views are not misrepresented to them. They are our neighbours, with whom we desire to trade and live in peace. We have a coastline thrice as long as that of America. Australia's existence depends upon an adequate Imperial Navy. The future hope of the world is an Anglo-American alliance. Therefore hera is our dilemma. Our safety lies in the renewal of the Anglo- Japanese Treaty, yet that treaty is anathema to America,

"The trouble in America is that the Japanese want the right of entry and to hold land in the United States. Australia's attitude is like America's thereanent, but Japanese should not consequently think we regard them as inferiors. We admire their bravery and We have patriotism and acclaim their magnificent achievements.

got our ideals, they have got theirs. I want the Japanese to un- derstand clearly that Australians are anxious to remain in peace and friendship with Japan. If the Japanese complain of any act of ours, it is unreasonable, for no foreigner is allowed to hold land in Japan. They do not recognise naturalisation as denationalising any Japanese, yet these are the main grounds of differences of opinion between the United States and Japan. But these matters are capable of adjustment by peaceloving nations. It is the bounden duty of Australia to use every means at her disposal to effect such modus vivendi as will secure a renewal of the Anglo-Japanese Treaty in a form agrecable to the United States. Hence the dilemma is that while making every effort to retain the friendship of Japan, Australia and Britain cannot shut their eyes to the fact that there is great danger now of such naval rivalry in the Pacific as will be a heavy drain on all concerned, and having reflex influences upon the whole world,"

Mr. Hughes concluded: "The most

powerful agency

for the world's peace is the British Empire, and the hope of peace in the future lies in some understanding between France, America and England. The League of Nations is unwieldy and clumsy."

UPPER SILESIA.

London, May 21. Telegrams from New York report that Colonel Harvey's speech created a political sensation, capecially as regards America taking part in the proceedings of the Supreme Council in regard to Upper Silesia. The authorities at Washington say that the United States representative on the Council will presently participate actively only or questions vitally affecting America's interests. Meanwhile the officials are closely following the Anglo-French different points of view. It is stated that the sympathies of the Government are entirely pro-British heresnent and, if necessary, official expression of these sympathies would be given.

Paris, May 21.

The French Government has received the note on the Upper Silesian question which Lord Curzon handed to the French Am- bassador yesterday.

Reports from Berlin to the effect that the British War Office has ordered the organisation of infantry brigades and cavalry squadrons on the Rhineland for Upper Silesia is authoritatively denied.

EGYPTIAN RIOTS.

Cario, May 21,

Further extensive rioting occurred to-day following the. funeral of the rioter killed in the disturbances cabled yesterday. Crowds persistently attacked the police. After three hours the Egyptian cavalry was called out. It is believed that 3 rioters were killed and 11 wounded. Owing to the restraint of the police con- siderable damage was done. A number of Europeans were stored, including Reuter's correspondent who narrowly escaped.

Alexandria, May 21.

All day long pro-Zaghloul demonstrations occasioned rioting, in which a British military policeman and one rioter were killed. The curfew was enforced at ten o'clock at night.

Alexandria, May 22.

In yesterday's rioting 7 were killed and 30 injured.

GERMAN RESTITUTION.

Berlin, May 21. Definite measures for the execution of the ultimatum are off- cially announced, comprising indemnification to exporters for the levy imposed by the Entente on Gennan experts. The Government has also begun the restitution of railway material seized in Allied countries during the war. The first instalment of five thousand waggons has been handed over.

PRINCE HIROHITO.

London, May 21. Before departing from Edinburgh Prince Hirohito presented the Lord Provost with £100 for the City's poor and expressed appre- eiation of the cordial reception given him. A royal salute was fired as the train steamed out of the station.

It had no opinions in regard to the relative forms of government concerning which China must decide for herself.

The Consortium was concerned only in seeing a government capable of governing, because, until then, the supply to China of free money for constructive purposes must largely be restricted. China could be saved only by her own exertions; therefore, the Con- sortium invited the cooperation of a Chinese group to participate in discussions, ultimately with a view to shouldering her share of the burdens when able to do so. A syndicate of Chinese banks had been formed for the purpose inter alia of funding the floating debt of the country.

Wilnens admitted that he offered to sell the land to defendant, but denied he was disappointed over the rejection of bis offer. He further explained that his purpose in going to the police station was only to have defendant warned by the police against assaulting com- plainant.

The Magistrate told witness that he had done well.

Defendant said she had bad the girl for over a year Her conduct was very unsatisfactory. She would not chastise complainant unless her conduct was extremely refractory, end even on such occasions she generally gave her six or seven strokes with a light cane. Sup Koe used to beat complainant, and she had often advised ber not to do so.

Mr. Orme asked the police if defendant was prepared to part with the girl.

Inspector Blackman replied that the girl would either be ordered by the S.C.A. to be sent to the Po.. Leung Kuk, or returned to her mother.

Mr. Woo said his client was quite willing to give up the girl; in fact she intended to return the girl to. her own mother last year because she found her difficult to manage. The girl's mother was called by the Magistrate. She said com plaints had been made to her by defendant in connection with theffe in connection of money.
