France. Japan. Portugal. Germany and other nations, mcldding The; Nether land (of which' jthe father of the pres ent Netherlands-; chief delegate. Van Karnebeek, was ithe representative fi nally disposed of the conference in the negative. ' In 1902 Argentina and Chile agreed to a limitation of naval armament. This waa the '.first ttme organized peace had lxen- eryata-llized in the pan-American movement. And for the first time a five-year naval holiday was agreed upon. Whatever the comment from foreign critics at the time, the agreement held good. - BeJtween the i first and pcond Hague conferences, the contrition of nations tooti . form In divers p-r.posat.i, particu larly from the Britiph and Russian gov ernments. --TTie first .'four clauses of the aecond1 Jtague conference agenda discussed the need for the limitation of armaments. ISDICATK AVA1, HO I. lit AT I The fourth clause of that agenda fore shadowed Winston Churchill's naval holiday ' dream of l!t3j. It read: "That O'reat -Britain iseek to .persuade the powers to asrree to a proportional reduction "of naval expenditures for five year's; or failing such, agreement, that Great Britain propose , an arreBt of ex penditures for three years with a view to reduction at a later date.' "The principle of resifmptkm of the principle of arrest sb,all be applied, not only to the total naval expenditure from all sources, but also to the annual provision . for the construction of new ships." But only twice duritig the whole con ference,, which lasted several months, wis the question of armaments even touched. Germany opposed every at tempt on the part of the various gov ernments, particularly Great Britain and Kussia. to have the matter broached. Techntcaily one phase of the conference wa a success the nations agreed to give one another 2t hours' notice before starting a war. From- 1311 on Great Britain pursued the disarmament ghost persistenly. Three times she addressed. Germany on the subject, in March, ; 1911, Sir Edward Grey proposed a "frank exctiange of in formation between the two govern ments" and held that this would cuard against surprise. Germany, through Chancellor-von Bethman Hollweg, could see nothing- objectionable in this and ex pressed the hope "that thereby the ex pected assuagement of public opinion in I',rgland will take place." GKRWASfi SOT IS TE RESTED In March; 1912, Winston Churchill proposed a 16 to 1.0 proportion for Brit ish and German ships and hinted at the naval holiday. Nothing came of this. March 6, 1913. Churchill came out definitely for a naval holiday. "It Is a practical solution," he told th house of commons. "I am not putting any sentiment Into my examination of my subject. If, for a space of one year, no new ships were built by any nation. In what conceivable manner would the interest of any nation be affected or prejudiced? The finances of e,very country would obtain relief. Xo navy would sustain the slightest injury." The proposal went to Germany. It was Ignored. Churchill repeated the pro posal October 18, 1913. There never was a reply. GOETHALS ADVISES i . A . ... : m. ' ::.',.-'1-':'':;;r:::''.;''v'v; C r ' I.1,1'- i m t m. c CANAL TOO COSTLY s (Kt United Km) . St. Paul. Mir.n., Feb. 1. The cost of maintaining a channel for ocean-going vessels from the mouth of the St. Law rence river to the head of the great lakes would be so tremendous at this time as to make the project impractical. This was the opinion of General G. W. Goethals. builder of the Panama canal, here today. General Goethals is on his way to the Pacific coast. The possibility of developing water iow er aloiuc the course for both the I'niied States and Canada might make the project feasible, he thought, but the canal phase seems impractical. "It would be a stupendous task and the outlay of money to deepen the c.han nel for big ocean-going ships through Lake Erie would be tremendous." he said. He, said he had not seen the engineer reports on the project, and had not given the matter thorough consideration, but was of the impression that the task would be too great to be a paying thing. American Post Is Refused by Hermes; , Case Embarrassing (By United N'ews) Berlin, Feb. 1. Finance Minister Hermes has definitely refused appoint ment as German ambassador to Wash ington.
