Washington, Feb. 4
The sixth Plenary Session was held this morning. Secretary Hughes presented the General Far Eastern Treaty, embodying Senator Root's Open Door resolution. The text of the Treaty fol lows closely and often identically the language of the resolution already adopted by the Conference. The Treaty was approved on a roll call of the nine Powers without debate, The declaration of China not to alienate any portion of her territory was put on record. Senator Underwood then presented the Chinese Tarif Treaty.
The Conference adopted a resolution authorising the establish- ment of a Board of Reference in China, to which will be referable any questions arising in connection with the execution of the Open Door Treaty for investigation and report to the Conference.
Likewise it approved the Tarif Treaty. After speeches by Senator Underwood and Mr. Alffèd Sz6, Senator Underwood declar- ed that the present disturbed conditions in China made it manifestly impossible for Chins to exercise in full her administrative functions. The effect of the Treaty would undoubtedly be to double the exist- ing revenues of China received from the Maritime Customs. Mr. S expressed China's appreciation, but said the proposed arrangement # could be regarded as only a temporary measure looking to fical
Chinese tariff autonomy.

The Tarif Treaty follows closely the provisions of the tariff resolution previously adopted. It provides that a Revision Commis- sion meet at Shanghai immediately to revise the tariff in the basia of a dive per cent. "effective." Revision will be completed within four months and become effective two months later. A special con- ference of the signatory Powers will meet within three months to revise the existing treaties and permit, the imposition of a surtax to abolish the likin tax. Periodical revisions are authorised every four years. The Powers pledge themselves to effective equality treat- ment and opportunity in all pertaining to Chinese tariffs and the principle of uniformity on land and maritime frontiers.
The Conference approved of a resolution providing that the obligations to foreign investors of the Chinese railways be fullled. Applause greeted the announcement that Japan and Enina have agreed to form a treaty, to settle the Shantung question.
Much time was taken in reading statements of the positions of the variogs Powers on Far Eastern questions,
Senator Lodge read a supplement to the Pacific Treaty defining
its scope so as not to include the principal islands of Japan.
The plenary session closed with a speech from Mr. Balfour, who said that despite the fact that the Conference has, seemiaxly travelled all over the globe considering trifling details, great moral questions had been met and any mation which in future sought to transgress
1 the principles laid down at the Conference regarding China would be considered outside the comity of dations. Mr. Balfour maintain-

ed that the decisions of the Conference would produce a new era over the entire world, especially the part in which the great maritime Powers were deeply interested. He declared that China must work tut her own changes in accordance to the changes of the changing world. All we can do is to help her. She can gain a little from our advice and in the end must rely on Herself.

The general Far Eastern Treaty approved at to-day's plenary session recognises the sovereignty and independence of China and pledges the Powers to make no treaties impairing the same and not En support agreements by their nationals tending to create spheres of influence in China. The Chinese Government agrees not to per- mit discrimination of her railways against foreigners. The Treaty provides for full and frank communication between the Powers whenever in the opinion of anyone of them a situation arises which demands application of the principles of the Treaty.
The Twenty-One Demands.
་?
The Twenty-one Demands were disposed of to-day. Mr. Wang accepted Baron Shidehara's withdrawal of group fire and declared he would reserve China's remaining objections for future discussion. Each of the nine Powers then made a statement setting forth their respective attitudes to the Twenty-one Demands. These statements will be included in the minutes of the Conference.

Mr. Balfour and Secretary Hughes were present.
Mr. Balfour's Gratification.
"America's reception of the completed work of the Conference is undoubtedly one of satisfaction. The irreconcilables have lost much influence through the cordial and felicitous atmosphere marking the closing scene of a historic infernational gathering which culminated in the signing of the Shantung Agreement thus removing the main plank of the anti-Japanese campaigners and also one of the big rocks on which the Wilson League of Nations projects foundered. The signature of the Agreement was presum- ably advanced in order to enable Mr. Balfour to witness the con- clusion of the work to which he and Mr. Hughes have largely con- tributed.
After the signing the British delegates bade farewell to Pre- sident Harding. Mr. Balfour assured the President that he had the greatest satisfaction with the success of the Conference which had demonstrated the feasibility of the conference method of deal- ing with international questions. Therein lies its success, the potentialities of which may quite conceivably outweigh its actual and substantial accomplishments as foreshadowing a wider field of international co-operation.

Admittedly more could be done if the Conference were tended. The Chinese Estern Railway question supplies an exam- ple of the difficulties facing the Conference. The Committee to which the question has been referred has advised the Inter-Allied die Technical Commission, that it should be granted powers like the principally to the good batting of supervision of unaces and the control of Chinese police, but ar Alexander, R.
