(United Iress Stiff Correspondent)
Washington, March 21. Secretary
Hughes b truck back sharply at Benate
critics of th American arms conference
negotiators of the four-power pact today.
In a letter to Senator Jodge he denied
that any secret agreement eii.sta be
tween the United States and Great Brit-
am an charged yesterday by Senator
If or ah. Hughes, in stincina language, also
expressed the hoie "the American dele

lx) age had Hughes letter read to the
senate with a lengthy telegram from raid
i). i ravath, .New lork lawyer upon
whose alleged statements in the semi
privacy of an informal discussion at a
club, llorah based his charge of a aecrt t
understanding with Great llritain. ( ra
vath said he never made any Htich state
ment, and that the most he ever said
was that the Washington conference had
created &uch sympathy and understand
ing between the two nations that fur.h r
co-operutiou wtm bonim to result as a
result as a matter of course.
He denied that he ever intimated there
was a secret agreement relating to joint
operations of the Amoricau and Hriti.-h
fleets against Japan or covering to-operative
action in the I'acific or lVr Last,

In his letter to Iodge, Hushen paid:
"My Dear Senator: 1 notice that tho

"In my letter to Senator Underwood

"Permit me to express the hone that

Senator Ilorah sought to discuss Ihe

Edge Favors Genoa Meet.
''If the league, of nations covenmt.
with its guarantee tu preserve existing
territorial iwKHessiitiis was not conducive
to war. then there is no danger in the
four-power treaty Senator Kdge ar
gued. "Whether the Anglo-Japau ttlUance,'
tolge said, "was a menace to the United
States or otherwise it appears to mo aa
amnion sense to scran a two-nany oi-
fenslve and defensive alliance and replace
it with the assured participation of the
