Lloyd George to Confer With
Canadian Pryniers.
LEAGUE ASKED TO ACT
statement by Premier Lloyd George In
the house of commons yesterday rela
tive to settlement of "the Irish ques
tion. Newspaper discussions center
variously upon the three stipulations
specified by the premier as a basis to
consider settlement.
Separate treatment for the six
counties of northern Ulster; no se-cesslon-of
any part of Ireland from
the United Kingdom, and no agree
ment involving any detraction from
the security of the British isles or of
their afety in case of war.
The Freeman's Journal, which has
advocated dominion home rule, sug
gests as a reply a "financial and com
mercial boycott of that part of Ulster
which is causing all the trouble."
Tlue Independent says the premier's
English Prime Minister to, Be In
vited to America for Confer
ence With Wilson.'
BY CHARLES MICH ELSON.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1". (Special.)
Premier Lloyd-George will cross the.
Atlantic in October 'to meet.. the
premiers of all the British dominions
on the Pacific for a conference, on
the renewal of the Anglo-Japanese
alliance. This conference will prob
ably be held in Vancouver.
During his stay in Canada the Brit,
lsh prime minister will be Invited
to Washington. There are Innumer
able questions which this country
and England are both interested in,
and besides the Japanese situation,
and a faoa to face conference with the
president or secretary of state or
both, might be expected to accomplish
in an hour what may take weeks
f diplomatic changes to effect.
The conference is said to be the re
emit of an interpellation' made during
Lloyd George's presentation to par
liament of the renewal of the treaty.
- Canadian Laws Drastic
Australia, New Zealand and the
western provinces of Canada are as
much worked, up over the Japanese
Infiltration as is California and for
tiie same reason.
Some of the Canadian laws are even
snore drastic! than the California
tatute barring orientals from holding
r leasing agricultural land,' which Is
causing so much concern both here
and In Tokio. ' The Australians, more
over, are exercised over the mandates
Japan has for'the former German isl
ands, north of the equator, which
were put in her charge by the treaty
f Versailles.
The mandate committee has not yet
clearly defined the powers and privi
leges of mandate power.
Officially, this country has no In
formation about the coming confer
ence. Unofficially, it is known that,
because of the identity of interest of
the western states with British do
minions in the Japanese question,
these states were to be invited to
nave an observer present at the ses
sions. Similarly the Japanese have been
advised of the premier's sentiment.
' Question Submitted to League.
The renewal of the Anglo-Japanese
pact has been submitted tf the league
of nations by the contracting nations,
with the statement that some o. Its
provisions did not conform to the
league rules for treaties, and with a
request that the league suggest such
modifications as would - bring it
within the bounds.
So far no reply has come from the
league. The Anglo-Japanese agree
merit, by its terms, will expire July
13, 1921, unless renewed, but con
tinues in full force and effect for one
year after that date, in the event
either party should, meanwhile, de
nounce it.
Inasmuch as the United States is
not a member of the league of na
tions, the state department has nc
direct means of keeping track of
matters coming before the new world
body, but is kept fairly well informed
through diplomatic channels.
Up to date, no information has been
received which indicates that the
league has given formal consideration
to -the Anclo-Japanese agreement.
