Visionary Aims Of Armament Meet Will Be Shunned American Delegate to Con fcrrnce Hold That Com l1ete Disarmament T Not PottiiMe at Present Time. By ARTHUR SEARS HENNINO. Wellington, Sqt. 2' Formula, (mn o the American iHcy m i international ctmlerencc on the limitation of armament will be be Kiin next k, when Elihu Root will arrive in Washington to ronfcr with the other member ot the American delegation Secretary of State HuKlie. Senator Lode and Senator Underwood. , It i now Ktillc to outline the consideration which will guide the American delegation in the negotia tion to achieve what is honed will he a notable itep toward the picscr vation of world peace. To hold fait to the practical and shun visionary aim will be the con Mant endeavor of the American dele gation in whote niembcrshi:) prac ticality and absence of viwonary tendencies are a common trait. Self-De.'enie Imperative. The American delegate agreed that complete naval or military dis armament i impractical at this stage of the development of mankind- A measure of national iclf-defcuse, it is conceived, will be imperative for srencratiom to come. No other na tict would agree to complete dis armament and manifestly the United States could not afford to disarm atone. Hence, complete disarma ment is classed as visionary and it i& desired that' the people srould understand that this is to be 9 con ference not on disarmament, but on the reduction of armament to the ex tent it may prove possible to agree updn-" An international agreement to re strict and reduce armaments grad ually does appear to the American Kovcrnment to be not only far from visionary, but intensely practical. True, it may turn out to be imprac tical to reduce land armament on ac count of the attitude of Franre and Italy. France, particularly would re quire guarantees of protection from a restored Germany which it might prove difficult to provide. ' Ready to Halt Building. But when the question is narrowed down to the reduction of naval arm ament by the three naval powers, the United States, Great Britain and Japan, it appears still more practi-J cal. ihc United States, therefore, will go into the conference prepared tq enter into a binding agreement to halt naval building, bjn by agree ment only. Each party 'to 'the agree ment must curtail its building pro gram to the same extent as the oth ers. The Navy department is already drawing, up various plans under any ol which an equal reduction of arm- amcnt would U: achieved. President FArdinc as taken a firm stand-avainst th baeifists. whftil woufir TjaVe the United States re duce arniamen.even though other nations refuse;, and his views are shared by the American delegates. The ! other . nations at . the council boarid wil learn , that reduction of armament is acceptable but not im perative from the American view point. If other nations are unwilling to enter into a fair agreement, the United States will continue naval building with resources that Will en able! her to outstrip Great, Britain arid jleave Japan tar in the rear. f U. S. Holds Advantage. An indication of the advantage of the United States, if the naval build ing contest should continue unabat ed, is afforded by the statistics which place the annual earning power of the American nation at $68,000,000, 000, of Great Britain at $36,000,000, 000 and of Japan at $9,000,000,000. The British burden of navy building would be nearly twice and that of Japan nearly eight times the Amer ican burden. i To remove the causes of friction in. the far ' east and the Pacific, which militate against reduction ot armament, also appears n intensely practical. Pressure upon Japan to consent to the settlement of the questions relating to the " status " of China will be exceedingly strong.

Water Transportation Cheaper. "This is because shipment by water is cheaper than by rail. There is opposition to the opening up of the Great Lakes to ocean traffic by interests connected ywth the port of New York. They ay the Erie canal offers an outlet. Mit even if this were feasible in carying the surplus pro duction of Iie middlewest, the port rnulH nnhanilli it. Conditions in New "York City are such that the j more freight received, the higher the cost of handling becomes on all. "The Panama canal was of im-' mense benefit to both coasts, and to the country within 800 miles of either ocean, but it was of no commercial advantage to the interior. The 16 middle western states which produce 70 per cent of the foodstuffs almost all of the surplus that ' is shipped abroad ought to have an outlet. They can not continue to ;competc with foreign producers who have easier access to the sea, with conse quently lower freight charge's. Odes sa and the Great Lakes ports are practically the same distance from Liverpool, the -center of the world's trade in wheat. . Yet it costs Ameri cans two and one-half times as much to ship from Duluth.or Chicago as it does the Russians to ship from the Black sea." ' ' , '-:- $6,000,000 Saved in Year. Mr. Craig quoted authorities who J that the opening up of the declare Great Lakes to ocean freighters will save as much as 10 cents a bushel. Victor B. Smith, managing editor of The Omaha Bee, who intraduced Mr. Craig, in his opening address placed the annual wheat crop of Nebraska at 60,000,000 busheis and! stated that 90 per cent of it was shipped out of the state. He made ' the point that since the price is based on the world market in Liverpool, with the cost of .freight deducted, a saving of 10 cents a bushel in carry ing costs would mean a saving of $6,000,000 a year for the wheat rais ers of this state alone. . Mr. Craig, to ilustrate the low cost of water shipment, gave figures showing that lumber mills on Puget Sound. were shipping their products down the Pacific coast, through the Panama canal, ' and up the Atlantic coast for less than the cost of send ing them direct by railroad. Lumber following this route, he declared, could be brought inland from New York to Cleveland, and still the freight bill would be less than if it had been sent -by land the entire distance. - ' - The cost of waterway construc tion, which would be divided with Canada, he estimated at $252,000,000 for the share of the United States. This would be met by an issue of bonds, which would be paid off by the earnings of water power plants to be erected as a part of the project, so that it ought not be necessary for any part of the cost to fall cn the government. The savings each year in freight rates alone, he estimated, would more than double the cost of construction. Western railroads, he stated, were in favor of the plan, and he complimented G. W. Ifoldiege, former manager of the Burlington lines here, who sat at his table, for having been the first railroad man who saw the advantage of the water way and spoke in favor, of it.
