to Be in Fair Way of Being
Solved, Says Minister.
LONDON', June 20. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Premier Lloyd George
In opening the imperial conference,
attended by the. overseas premiers
today, referred to Anglo-Japanese re
lations in terms generally regarded
In American circles as assurance to
the United Jitates that any renewal
ef the agreement with Japan would
be of a nature unobjectionable to
America.
While he avoided a declaration on
the direct issue of the treaty, he
alluded to the war-time friendship
with Japan and said Great Britain
was anxious to apply this friendship
to a solution of the questions con
nected with the Pacific ocean and
the far east, among them the future
"of China.
Armn Limitation!, Favored
Great Britain desired to avoid com
petition in armaments in the Pacific,
he declared, and he emphasized his
willingness to discuss limitation of
armaments with the United States.
pointed out that the life of. the
United Kingdom, as also of Australia
and New Zealand, was built on sea
power "the, axis of the whole em
pire's existence."
Discussing relations between Great
Britain and the United States, he
saiii
"Friendly co-operation with the
United States Is for us a cardinal
' pr.nctple, dictated by what seems
to us the proper nature of things by
instinct quite as much as by reason
aund common sense. ,
"Wo are readp to discuss with
American statesmen any proposal for
the limitation of armaments which
they wish to set forth, and we can
undertake that no such overtures will
find lack of willingness on our part
to Meet them." .
Condition Are Reviewed
The first session was without cere
mony. Mr. Lloyd George welcomed
the visitors, who he said, met as
"equal partners in the dignities and
responsibilities of the British com
Don wealth.'
He summarized post-war conditions
and said German disarmament was
virtually accomplished and the repa
rations problem was "in a fair way of
be'ng solved."
g"he problems of Silesia and the
Near East remained; their solution
lay in adherence to the treaties, and
he was hopeful as to both
"There is prevalent a widening and
deepeningcon viction," he added, "that
the' world must have peace if it is
ever to recover its health
.Mr. Lloyd George paid tribute o
ttte loyalty of the dominions during
the ar.. He referred in glowing
terms to the gallant achievements of
India and cited these as proof of the
solidarity of the empire, which, he
declared, "is based not on force but
on good will and common under
standing."
Premier Are Talk.
After the premier's speech the con
ference adjourned until tomorrow,
when the overseas premiers and the
representatives of India will talk. It
is understood that if the Anglo.-Japa
ncse agreernent is renewed. Premier
Hughes of Australia plans to return
to his country by way of the United
States where he will make a speech
and attempt to explain the situation
to the American people.
"There is no quarter" of the world
where we desire more greatly to
maintain peace and fair play for all
nations aitd avoid competition in arm
aments than the Pacific and the far
east," said Mr. Lloyd George.
Discussing Anglo-Japanese rela
tions as affecting tne renewal of the
agreement, the prime minister said
japan was "a faithful ally" in the
war. and Great Britain would not
easily forget the valuable assistance
rendered by Japanese men of war.
"We desire to preserve' that well
tried friendship which has stood us
both in good stead," he continued,
"and to apply "it to the solution or
all questions in the far east, where
Japan has special Interests and where
we, ourselves, like the United States,
desire equal opportunities and the
open door.
Racial Dlffeprmre Not Considered,
"V- ihe least amorie these mips.

and civilization between east and
west. It-would be ftital to the em

Lewis, president of the United Mine
Workers, tonight' were marshaling
their forces for the contest, 'which

went into action Immediately follow
ing the announcement by Lewis that
he would be a candidate for the pres
idency, with a declaration that the
veteran labor chief would be a can
didate and had no Intention of with
drawing from the race.
Mr. Gonfpers stated, however, that
"I consider the position of president
of the American Federation of Labor
so exalted and so dignified I would
not stoop to politics to attain it.
"No man in this convention, or out
of it, can truthfully 'say, and I do
not believe he wduld untruthfully
make such n statement, that I dis
cussed the presidency with him or
asked him for his vote."

NEW YORK, June 20. Low records
of one. to 20" years were registered
during a further collapse of-prices on
the stock exchange today, when sales
tota'led about 1,250,000 shares. All
classes of stocks were affected, but
investment rails, steels, oils and rail
way equipments were hardest hit.
United States Steel, losing more than
three.points, dropped to 71, the low
est sipce 1915, when it declined to 3S
before, the war bo5m lifted it to 89 Vs.
Canadian pacific, once a favorite of
the international stock markets, in
cluding Berlin, was the weakest rail,
extending last week's loss by four
points to 101. That quotation was
the lowest since the 1901-03 periol,
when 'it fell to 87. -
Oils,, motors and railway equip
ments were often without support,
even at pronounced .concessions. Mex
ican Petroleum repeated its recent
low of 103, after rallying to 109, and
StudebaKer, Baldwin and some two
score issues once partly known as
"war brides," closed at losses of two

Grave Apprehension Felt

CASE OF CYCLOPS RECALLED
Crewless Carriers Reported
Adrift at' Sea.
QUEER COINCIDENCE SEEN
Several Vessels About Same Time
Vanish; Bolshevists, Thought
to. Be Responsible.
WASHINGTON, D. C, June 20.
i-SpecIal.) The government is con
fronted with a sea mystery that has
given rise to the greatest apprehen-
sicn. Steamers and schooners have I
disappeared from the . ocean laes,
leaving no clew to the manner or
cause of their vanishing. It is no
new thing for a ship to sail and not
be heard from again the incident of
the Cyclops during the war is an ex
ample of this but now three and
perhaps more steamers have gone,
with no storms reported along their
routes. ,
One theory is that the crews of
some of these vessels mutinied, seized
the vessels and are taking them to
Russia to make up a bolshevik mer
chant marine. Crewless ships have
been reported drifting on the orean;
one has smashed on the b'each with no
j trace of anybody having been on
board. x
So -uncertain are official who have
cognizance of the disquieting situa
tion that they refuse to saw what
ships are missing: they do not see
how it could be, but they say there is
a posibility that these' vescls were
simply disabled and may show up
some time, -and they do not wish to
alarm the friends of those on board
by premature announcement.
Queer Colnridrnre Noted.
Again, the element of coincidence
makes this improbable. One ship
might have lost its rudder or suf
fered a breakdown, but that several
in the same zone wrrhln a few weeks
should have had this experience io
beyond the bounds even of sea con
viction. A few hundred years ago pirates
would have been blamed for the dis
appearance of -ships, but the black
flag cannot fly with wireless on
every ship and every vessel afloat
accounted for by clearance papers.
And j;et, the missing ships uggest
some euch agency.
Three coastal steamers have van
ished and the crew of an American
schooner has disappeared. The the
ory that the disappearance of these
vessels and the crew of the schooner
Caroi Deering was the work of bol-
shevists and that the vessels have
been taken to Russian, ports, was ad
vanced by Secretary of Commerce
Hoover.
But few details of tire disappear
ance of the ships could be learned
hereModay, either from governmental
or private shipping interests.

Senator Hale of Maine is understood I

Attempt Will Be Mude to Proe
Army Contention That Day of
Capital Warships Past.
LANGLEY FIELD. Va.. June 20. !
The greatest armada of airfighters
ever gatnered by the army during
ncat-a was readv to "hou'1 from the
! rielrl tom,.,--nu' t.tr tt ti r a ii-:i t firm-
onstration of air service contention
that the day of capital battleships
is past.
Across Hampton roads at the naval
J base several score of Uncle Sam s
airships were prepared to take first
action in the bombing of the ex-German
submarine U-117 tomorrow off
tho Virginian Capes.
The vanguard of attacking planes
will reach the target anchored 50
miles off Cape Charles at 9 A. M.,
none but navy machines participat
ing in the opening attack
Immediately behind will fly nine
planes of the F-5-L type, each carry
ing four bombs. A torpedo plane
division of five Martin bombers will
follow with? six bombs each. Four
machines of the NC type. similarN.to
those use! in the first trans-Atlantic
flight, will come-- next with four
bombs each and the column will.be
closed by a marine corps division of
six Dt' Havllaml bombers, carrying
two bombs each.
tv...... ... I , .
-..-.. al imguy Held did not ex
pect to have a chance at the P-117.
Expert opinion given unofficially did
no expect even that the last navy
planes would find it necessary to
release their bombs. BtR provision
was made for the Langley bombers
to try their hand if the U--117 re
mained afloat when the navy finished.
If necessary, the airmy flight will con
sist of 12 Martin bombers, with six
i bombs each, and 11 De Havllands,
carrying two bombs each. Should the
U-117 still remain on the surface guns
of destroyers will sink her.
Army and navy officers considered
most Important, however, the second
phase of the bombing V sts June 2.
At that time the battleship' Iowa,
radio-controlled, will lie cruising be
tween Cape Charles and Cape Hen
Iapen, from fp" to 100 miles off Fhore.
The aviators with no further idea of
the ship's location will take off and
search her out If the Iowa is lo
cated dummy bombs will be rained
on her and the planes will return
The Iowa is not to be destroyed as
she is the orvly radio-controlled vessel
in existence.
