J PUBLICITY OE DEFEAT. ECRKT sessions for the Disarmament Conlcrense sound incred ible. The reason given for secret sessions, sounds more incredible According to Mark Sullivan, there promises to be little more pub licity at Washington than there was at Paris, and the reason given is that the foreign delegates do not want publicity ! An explanation, apparently inspired, is to the effect, that the diplomats of Kurnpe and the Far East are not accustomed to American methods of publicity, and it would be discourteous for the United States, as host, to force pub licity upon them. Mark Sullivan must know what lie is talking about, but it is hard to-believe that the Disarmament Conference will fall into the trap that virtually wrecked the Paris conference, and do this on the flimsy ground of diplomatic etiquette. ! The best possible reason for insisting upon "open covenants openly arrived at is the opposition ot okl-tashKmed diplomacy. I he only hope lor attaining real results irom tho Washington conlerence, is to sweep the slate clean of the red tape and moth-eaten traditions of Europe and work out the problems in the free air of American De mocracy. This docs not mean throwing the doors of the conference open to the public on all occasions. It docs not means complete absence of sc i recy. Jiut it does mean, that the deliberations of the conference should be at least as open as the deliberations of congress; that com mittee work may be done behind closed doors, but before auy import ant decision is reached, the basis of such decision, should be first given to the world. Only with some such program, can there be any assurance, that the interests of the people, will be protected, and the cause of peace advanced at the coming conference. If Ihe people fully realized the importance of open air, as opposed to the eiosed-door diplomacy, there would lie such an outcry at the above announcement, that u repetition of the Paris disaster would be impossible. Hut unfortunately the people as a whole, are indifferent and quiescent. The only hope seems to be that the administration will awaken to the necessity of publicity before it is too late, not only for the good of the world, but for the good of the Republican parly, for if this conference is a fizzle, the Republican party in 1!)121 wjll be faced with a condition, very similar to the condition faced by the Democratic party in .1020.
