Washington, Jan. 19. Two Important
steps toward giving China a "square
deal" were taken today when the Far
Eastern conference adopted the Hughes

unfair discrimination on Chinese rail

of these lines.
Still another important move was an
agreement to list all existing commit
ments and concessions held by foreign
powers in China, many of which are se
