The proposal of the United States for the -convening of the arms conference was "a stroke of genius," which has resulted In a service to the world which "will live in history as long as history lives," Baron Kato, head of the Jap anese delegation, said tonight. The agreements signed, he added, contain nothing that is calculated to impair the security of any nation, but on the contrary, "have given such reassurance as few but . visionary dreamers had contemplated up to three months ago." - "With America's wealth and re sources," he said, "she could have dominated the seas. She chose, how ever, the wiser course, the way of truer greatness, which has command ed the admiration, respect and love ot the whole world. At the same time every nation represented here has benefited Immensely as a result of the earnest discussion and the notable series of understandings that have been reached. "In Japan we realized that a new spirit of moral consciousness had come over the world, but we could not bring ourselves truly to believe that It had struck so deeply Into the souls of men until we came to Washington. We came and we have learned; and In turn we have, I think, given evi dence such as no man can mistake. that Janan is ready for the new order of thought the spirit of International friendship and co-operation for the greater need of humanity which the conference has brought about."

WASHINGTON, D. C. Feb. B.(By the Associated Press.) The ideals behind the principles enunciated at the Washington conference "trans cends the impressiveness of the form in which they are embodied," the Chinese delegation declared in a state ment tonight. China will always be indebted to President Harding, Sec retary Hughes and Mr. Ealfour. it added, for the settlement of the Shantung question which "removes a grave cause of friction between China and Japan." "Human hearts have long hoped to see the termination of the race in competition of naval armament," the statement said, "but it has been left to the leadership of America to achieve it by conference and agree ment. "The words of praise spoken by the delegates of all the powers gathered at the plenary session Saturday, while eloquent and sincere, only faintly echoed the profound sentiment of ap preciation which all thoughtful stu dents of International questions and ardent lovers of world peace must have of the loftiness of conception and the boldness in execution of the American scheme of promoting peace between nations. "With the settlement of the several acute international questions relating to the Pacific and the far east, the clouds which were hovering on the horizon in these regions have lifted. and a more assuring outlook of peace and good understanding now 'greets the eye or the observer. "The principles which have been adopted to guide the powers in their intercourse with China, while not en tirely new, have been revivified. Their formal adoption by the Wash ington conference satisfies the peo ple of China because they feel con fident that in the steady application of these principles will be found a solution, for many of the problems which now embarrass their relations with foreign powers. "It may be yet too early to ap praise the work of the conference, but the magnitude of its results is unmistakable in perspective of past history, and will no doubt become more marked in the light of future development."

Hnlet M. Wells Declares There Is Nothing in Sight la Russia to Down Bolshevists. There may be a reason for the bolshevik long beards, and that is that the Russian barbers are the worst in the world, according to Hulet M. Wells, ex-president of the Seattle labor council and a delegate to the red trade union international congress held in Moscow last July, who related his first encounter with a Russian barber in an address on Russia at Christensen's hall last night. Mr. Wells admitted that he was cured of the barber habit, at least during his stay in Russia.

He said that he had been assured of this by the leaders. The speaker declared that the tak ing over of the industries, with the exception of some of the larger ones, was a war measure similar to our government's ..taking over the rail roads. He said that he was advised that 40 per cent of the larger indus tries would be retained by the soviet government. In reply to the question how long will the soviet government stand, Mr. Wells said that there was nothing in sight in Russia to take Its place.
