NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENTEVENTS 'France's Excessive Demands for Submarines Block Agree ment on That Topic. MR, BALFOUR'S PLAIN TALK Use of Submersibles 'Against Com irnerce May Be Forbidden—lrish| People Urge Ratification of .j Peace Treaty—Longer Oc cupation of Haiti-Con sidered Necessary. By EDWARD W. PICKARD conception of her needs * In the way >ot a defensive navy and the firmness w'lth which her dele gates upheld their position brought about a complete deadlock in the conference last week and made It almost certain that no agree ment will be reached 'hy the present gathering concerning 'the reduction and'limitation of-submarines and aux iliary 'naval tonnage. The other pow ers participating In the conference were Willing to concede the fairness of the French position tjie reduction of her land armament, but, they feel that In 'this naval matter; France is demanding 100 much. Albert Sarraut. having received fresh Instructions from Paris, told the n»val committee That France ac-i cepted the allowance of 175,000 tonsj of capital -ships, contingent mpon per vjnission to begin'replacement building In 1927 Instead of Tsn. but Insisted, -th.it she 'be allowed "fiO.OOO tons of! -submersibles and 3:10.000 tons of aux iliary ships. The submarine tonnage he asked Is equal t»> the -maximum •proposed by Mr. Huskies for Great Britain and the United 'Stated and three times what France now has. Mr. Balfour, In language as plain as diplomatic usage permits, retorted that France oould want euch a snbma rlne fleet for no other purpose than Illegal use against commerce, that the plan was a direct threat 4 against Great Britain, and that In the circum stances the British would -agree -to no limitation in the building of cruisers, •destroyers and other anti-submarine vessels. To M. Sarraut's assertion that British fear* of French aggres sion were baseless since Britain was •allowed a capital Snip tonnage greater than that of France and Italy com bined, Mr. Balfour replied that, Wi the •event of wur between Great Britain and France. England, having no 'large a»rmy, could not strike at the heart of France, but France, employing a great navy of submarines against conrmeree, eeuld destroy the "very existence" of Britain. To the Inyman It would seem ♦bat Mr. Balfour had tbe best of the debate. bnt M. Sarraut was unyield ing. Therefore Mr. Hughes, deploring the attitude of the French, an-1 norroeed with regret that an agree ment the reduction and limitation of submarine and auxiliary tonnage nppenred ImposslMe. % I~\ KSITTK thl«. the oaval conamlttee readied other agreements of .front Importance which was as turned the conference would confirm t/i Its next plenary session. One of these limits tlie caliber of capital (ddp guns to Id in'ties. * Another wss that the use of submarines against coiwuierce he barred. The latter. In the form of a resolution drafted by EUhit Root as an established psrt of International law. Is as follows; "The signatory powers, desiring to •nake more effective tlie rules adofited "by civilized nations for the protection of the lives of neutrals and nor com batants at sea in time of war. declare that among those rules the following are to be deemed an established part of international law: "1. A merchant vessel must be or dered to stop far visit and search to determine Its character before it can be captured. "A merchant vessel must 'not be at- unless It refuaes to stop for vMt and search after warning. "A iwtat vessel must Dot be de stroyed unless ihe crew wrd passen gers have been first placed in safety. "2. belligerent submarines aire not. under any circumstances, exempt from the universal rnles above stated:; and If a submarine 'cannot capture a mer chant vessel 'in conformity with these miles the existing law of nations re quires it ito desist from attui'k and from capture and to permit the mer chant vessel to proceed unmolested." President Harding ils not disheart ened by the failure to reach an agree ment on submarines, but hopes that if necessary the conference will, arrange for another parley at nn early date to further consider 'fhilt and other questions of srmqjnerit 'limitation and that all nations maintaining navies will be invited to participate. He re gards It its unfitting '•ptat five na tions should set out for the whole worldl" C*O N Sir* EI{ ATI LE progress was Imade in settling the Chinese puzzles. Mr. Underwood's compromise plan for the Chinese tariff was accepted by all the powers. This provides for an Im mediate increase in" mriff of 5 per cent ad valorem, a future increase to 7'4 per cpnt, and an'increase to 12% per cent when the provincial tariff Is abolished. It may !be three or five years before the Increase to 7'/& per cent goes into effect, since Japan and India require time 'ttf adjust their in dustries. Apparently the deadlock between China and Japan concerning Shantung was complete, and It was snid there would be American anil' British offers of mediation this week. But from Tokyo came the assertion by "high . officials" thtft Japan hart gained her main point .and the whole , dispute •probably would be settled soon. When 'China agreed to negotiate with Japan for the purchase of 'the roll way. It was asserted, she at'knbwledged Ja ipan's right In the rood won from 'Germany. China's offer of treasury notes in payment for rhe railway does not suit Tokyo as 'China 'has been un able to pay similar notes outstanding. •"Japan wants payment by a bond Is sue, which would prolong her control «f the railway until eas'h for the 'bounds could be gathenefl by the Chi nese. An organization of won Bolshevik Wnssians has appealed to tlie confer ence to consider the situation In east ern Siberia before adjourning. In the brief submitted Japan Is Accused of political and strategic alms In Siberia. » - * r\AIL EIREANN during -Its raW' ;lias been hearing from miMw^Sinn Fein .clubs awd other organizations of southern 11 eland, in in stance, so far jas rtVeri urged to ratify the Iri*J^>eaee treaty, Investigators report tKat fully- 00 per cent of the people/In the Island—ex cepting Ulster —*re In favor of ac cepting the pact.

Just to prsd tliose memliers of the r»nll who still oppose the treaty. Pre mier lAoyd George last week Issued a statement to the effect hpt Jhe Brtt government had gnt*e to the utt tnost limit, and that not .only the re jection of the treaty, bnt even its alteration tiy the IHill would render •It null and void. -To reopen the dh- cwslon," said he.

GItEAT BRITAIN'S two other fam ily rows —ln India and Egypt—are quieting down somewhat, though the condition* are l>ad In both countries. Numerous arrests and the Influence nf Mahatma Ghnndi are serving to di minish the rioting In India, jvhere the prince of Wales goes on ills festive way little disturbed. !n the Indian nationalist congress at Ahmedabad an effort was made to force the adoption of a motion that complete Indejiend en*» from the British empire should he attained by "possible and proper means." but Ghandl and his support ers frustrated this and the *y>rdhyj "legitimate and peaceful means" was adopted. It la 'lnteresting to learn that a Christmas message to the Indian na flonnlists, In the form of a poster dis played In many cities, pledged Amer ican aid for the campaign to over throw British rule in India. * This precious document was signed hy 44 Americans, among them Senators Xorris of fs'ehrnstai and Walsh of Massachusetts, Congressman Burke of Pennsylvania, Mayor Hoan of Milwau kee and former Governor Dtmne of Illinois. Hloting In various parts of Egypt, Including Cairo. IVrrt Said, Alexandria and Suez, followed the forcible re moval of Said Znnglonl Pasha, nation alist leader, and others from Cairo to Suez, whence they may "be taken" to Ceylon. A number of the natives were killed and wounded by troops and hun dreds of arrests were made. Nominal ly, of course, this Egyptian revolt Is against the sultan's government, but actually it Is against the British, for the sultan -does always what the British high commission advises, /~VNE wonders Whether President Harding is not already repenting his Christmas mercy in freeing Eugene Delta from prison. Fropi the moment of his release Il>e •Socialist leader has been emitting a steady stream of sentimental IrarVk, 'disgusting to all save those who 'believe, like Debs, that all prisons should be abolished, that lawbreakers should be petted instead of punished, and that the proletariat can do no wrong.
