MM RELIES ON PUBLICITY TO I'll H FRANCE OVER - Br DatU Lswrtsce '' " (Ceprflrht ltU. Vt Tbs Joaraal) Washington, Dec lL-GreatsVitaJn la making A. desperate effort to take tb conference oat of the meshee of private conversation and secret debet and" force - i xne open in ue nope of' lining up th moral forces of the world behind her demand ., that , th rub mar in b abol Med. i ..-. - The tactic of th British la pressing for plenary ca tion at which the who) question of submarine tin might bo discussed by -Arthur Balfour with the entire press 't It ft.' V.J ; aad Lord Lee present la a sequel to another and much more Significant Incident in connection with the French proposal to build 19 battleships. The JTench have complained to mem ber of the American and other delega tions of the press of the campaign eon ducted by the British against them In the laet few day.. They insist that the British broke ! faith , in permitting- the public to know what the French battle ship proposals' were, and that it bad been agreed that this would be kept secret aa between Mr. Hughes. Mr. Balfour and the other members ef the naval com mittee of the powers in conference here. Tb Question t:rhther that-British did or did not break faith hinges largely apon whether Tord Rlddell is an offi cial representative f Great Britain at this conference or! simply a. private clti ten engaged in newspaper work. Every day for many weeks Lord Rlddell has received the newspaper correspondents net only or England but the United States and other countries and has dis eitssed with the utmost abandon all the matters up before the Conference. He has outlined the British viewpoint, the French, the American. Chinese and Japanese contentions with all the air t authority that an official spokesman seed have to impress his audience The information1 given out by Lord Hidden has been for the most part au thentic. So far as British news is con cerned It has coincided with the move f the delegation. In ""any event, what Lnrd Rlddell has said In his conferences With newspaper men twice a day he been telegraphed j to all parts of the Uhited States by the press 'associations afid cabled to the four corners of the world. He has been the most communi cative man at the Washington confer efiee, a source of Information on every thing, j KO OFFICIAL CAf ACITTy Now Lord Rlddell UV response to the French attack on hint ' and the British for leaking" about the- French proposal tie declared that he never was In any sense official, but tkat he came here solely aa the representative Of the Brit ish Newspaper Proprietors association, and that his primary purpose was to as sist British journalists In getting news from the British delegation, f While performing this tak he was ftuite willing. Indeed anxious, to have American correspondents attend and take Whatever news he! was giving out. H didn't- sav he waa an official spokes man. - Nevertheless it was a fact that Ltrd Rlddell did , the same kiftd of a thing at the Versailles conference- and as presented the British viewpoint after ; the meetings of the supreme council Irt parts. He Is an; intimate friend fct Prime Minister Lioyd George and Is said to have been making private reports by able to the prime minister separate and distinct from the j reports sent by Mr, Balfour and to the officials of the Brlt tefc delegation. He Is a sort' of Colonel House for Lloyd George. , HS now claims his status Is simply that of a publisher, . . j Lord Rlddell departs tomorrow fbf j England, and when he ' goes there will ; be 4 sigh of relief, not from the cor 1 respondents who have obtained so much information from j him. but from the members of the Various delegations who have feir 111 at ease over his anomalous position. . j OBSERYES SO LIMITS , ,There"1a no objecticfti to publicity rep resehtatives or propoganda agencies at this conference. Moet of the powers seem to have them, the Japanese,- Chinese att.i the rest. But even these publicity agents are limited In what they can say la behalf of their respectivs delegations. Lord Rlddell observed no socb limits ami oa one occasion read from pared document what appeared to be the British viewpoint on the eTench pro posals presented in secret. , -. The truth Is tbs dategateav with the exception of the French, are pleased that the proposals leaked . out , for world opinion has promptly caused the . French to modify their viewpoint. Now the British, seeing the advantage which more or less open diplomacy has given tnem, are planning te press their ad vantage stili further by an- open ses sion of the conference, r Relying upon the sentiment of the American people as well as the prejudice which exists generally against the submarine because of the way the Germane used the weapon In the last war. the British wllT make aa attempt . to meet- the French demand for a certain number of submarines by insisting that all submarines be abot- MARSHAI4K0 SB2f TUKXIf T ' ' The AmexlcaA deWstlon favors the retention of some submarines.

Meanwhile work oa Shantung and the Chines question generally has been Quietly proceeding. - Negotiations for the redemption of the Shantung railway by China are alleged to have mad some progress, though nothing definite is yet arranged.

French and Italian ratio of capital ship strength may be deferred until the sub marine Issue has been publicly debated. This mdy happen shortly. -- The British standpoint on the sub marine issue has not yet been fully made known. It is desirable that It should be exhaustively and publicly set forth, If only- In order te counteract suppositions inspired by petty, or selfishly interested the real Chinese situation.
