the proposed A French semi-official statement affirms that Anglo-French Guarantee Part is limited to ten years, but may be renewed without further notice. It consists of four or five pre cise and unambiguous articles. It maintains intact French rights under the Versailles Treaty and, besides, Britain undertakes to give military assistance to France if unprovokedly attacked by Germany. The demilitarization clauses of the Rhineland are rein forced as both Powers undertake to intervene if Germany violates the military clause if the Treaty. The Fact does not refer to reparations or the question of sanctions. Belgium will be invited to join the Pact by the conclusion of an analagous Anglo-Belgian Treaty reinforcing the defensive Franco-Belgian Convention.

THE PACIFIC FORTICATIONS.

Washington. Jan.. 12. While awaiting word from Tokio regarding the Pacific fortifica- tions in the Naval Treaty, representatives of the Big Five to-day considered other features of the Treaty. A question which Tokio must decide is whether the string of islands extending, 300 miles south of Japan should be included in territory where, ander the provisions of the Treaty, fortifications are to remain in statu quo: or in other words, what is the extent geographically of the term solution of this "Pacific Island" The delay in arriving at a

question makes it improbable that the plenary session of the Can- ference will be held until next week.
