SAN mANCTSCO, Jan. 4. United States Senator Johnson, In a state ment to Californlans today. Bald "President Harding's erroneous con struction of the quadruple alliance treaty Is the most cogent reason for all of us to study every word and phrafie before we commit our coun try to this unexpected and extraor dinary contract." The statement was Issued, In ac cordance with a suggestion that he endeavor "to interpret the concrete things that have come out of the Washington conference on the limita tion of armaments." Senator Johnsons aid there was universal approval of the original purpose of the conference and sub stantial unanimity in the hope and desire that armaments be limited. Any results, he said, Just to the par ticipants, lessening armaments, would be most cordially and enthusiastically welcomed. But," he continued, "because we favor disarmament and would make almost any sacrifice for peace, 1b no reason why we must accept anything which may be tendered us in the eacred name of peace, or under the Culse of disarmament. "Unexpected Treaty" Result. "Out of the secrecy of the confer ence has come, first an unexpected treaty, unrelated to the original pur pose of the gathering and unconnected in reality with the limitation of arma ments. The treaty Is of transcendent Importance to California and of only less Importance to the nation. It should be carefully and calmly stud led, narrowly scrutinized; and Its meaning should be thoroughly un derstood before we are Irrevocably committed to it." Senator Johnson cited that Great Britain and Japan had an offensive and defensive alliance under which Cireat Britain's colonies were chaf ing; that Japan wished a continuance of the alliance; that apparently Japan Insisted, If it were to be abrogated, upon something as good, "and got Something better." He also recited the preamble of the new quadruple alliance as follows: "With a view to the preservation of the general peace and the mainte nance of their rights In relation to their Insular possessions and Insular dominions In the regions of the Pa cific ocean." Insular Dominions Issue "This language," he said, "it now appears, was the subject of prolonged debate In the secret sessions. We do know, however, that the president himself was not aware that 'insular dominions' Included Japan and as. erted in a public Interview that It did not. "Messrs. Hughes. Root, Lodge and Underwood, representing the United States, and those representing the other nations say that 'insular do mlntos' are Intended to include the Inland of Japan, as well as New Zealand and Australia, and their con struction Is now acepted. "The first admitted fact In any dis cussion of the treaty is that the maintenance of our island possessions is guaranteed, while the island pos sessions and the mainland of Japan are guaranteed." Article 2 of the alliance provides, In substance, he said, that "if the rights of the parties are threatened by aggressive actio nof any other power, the parties shall communicate with one another fully and frankly ln order to arrive at an understand ing as to the most efficient measures to be taken, jointly and separately, to meet the exigencies of the par ticular situatton.' Point Is Illustrated. "To take a concrete Illustration: Jf aggressive action shall threaten Japan the United States shall meet with the other three powers to deter mine 'the most efficient measures to lie taken, Jointly and separately,' to meet the aggression. "On the one hand It Is contended that this language means no more than that the parties, having men and determined the most efficient means to meet the aggression, may do noth ing further; while, on the-other hand It is asserted that the purpose of the contract being the maintenance of the rights of the parties, when aggres sion threatens these rights and the" part.es meet and determine the effi cient means of meeting the aggres sion, they are in honor bound to exe cute the 'means' decided upon. "Unless behind the treaty there Is the power to enforce It and theunder nlanding that the power shall be used to 'meet the exigencies of the par ticular situation' the Instrument is a Useless and futile fulmlnation." Two Articles Compared. Senator Johnson In, his statement paralleled article II of the alliance to article X of the league of nations covenant, and after quoting a recent Interview of the Japanese premier 6aid: ''Here Is an official utterance that the new alliance supercedes the old offensive and defensive British-Japanese alliance and is much wider In bearlng, and that its guarantee strengthens Japan's position In the far east." "Upon the facts now presented and the treaty'as It stands, among many others," he concluded, "is one most Important question: Shall the United States, either Jointly with Great Britain and France, or separately, guarantee or underwrite Japan?"
