WARNS AGAINST INTRIGUE Executive Voices Hope for Interna tional Peace and a Better Under standing Among Nations Saya United States Has No Un worthy Designs. "Washington, Nov. 14. America took leadership Saturday In tho Urst movement In history for tho elimina tion of International menaces that threaten civilization with future wur. Ilcduced to simple terms, the United States seeks: First To prevent competition among tho grent powers in the construction of wnr mnchlnery naval, land and nlr. Second To remove sources of inter national friction In the Pacific ocean zone that may lead to futuro con flict. Itecognlzlng the general belief that the Fur East is the n6w danger spot, America has sought the co-operation of eight other powers with vital Interests In tho Orlent'to nllny the danger of a "next world war." This Is generally regarded as the greatest humanitarian crusnde in the history of mnnklnd. But It is also n practical scheme for innterlul relief from the overwhelming burden of taxa tion and debt. Meeting Is Unique In History. The veteran diplomats of Europe who have participated In every Impor tant International parley for the past half century characterized this meet ing as unique In world history a meeting called In advance of war, de signed to prevent war, and a voluntary coming together of the great nntlons to limit the size of each other's armies and navies. The President spoke from tho head of the great U-shaped table, uround which sat In rapt attention the states men of Europe nnd Asia. To the right of him sat France nnd Japan, to the left Grent Brltoln nnd Italy, and down at the far end of the horse shoe were the representatives of China, Belgium nnd Portugu'l. On cither side of him at the head of tho table were the head of Amer ica's representatives. The galleries were crowded with the entire mem bership of house and senate, members of the cnblnet, justices of the Supremo court nnd diplomats. Text of Harding's Address. President Hnrdlng delivered the fol lowing address at the opening of the armament conference here: Mr. Secretnry and Members of tho Conference, Ladles and Gentlemen: It Is n great and hnppy privilege to bid the delegates to this conference a cordial welcome to the capital of the United States of Amerlcn. It Is not only a satisfaction to greet you be cause we were lately participants In a common cause, in which shared sac rifices and sorrows nnd triumphs brought our nntlons more closely to gether, but it Is gratifying to address you ns the spokesmnn for nations whose convictions and nttendlng no tions have so much to do with the wenl or woe of all mankind. Will Influence Human Progress. It Is not possible to over nppralso the Importance of such a conference. It Is no unseemly -boast, no disparage ment of other nations which, though not represented, nre held In highest respect, to declnre thnt the conclu sions of this body will have a signal influence on all human progress on the fortunes of the world. Here is a meeting, I can well be lieve, which is an earnest of the awak ened conscience of twentieth-century civilization. It Is not a convention of remorse, nor n session of sorrow. It Is not the conference of victors to de fine terms of settlement. Nor Is it a council of nntlons seeking to remake humankind. It Is rnther a coming to gether, from all parts of the earth, to npply the better attributes of mankind to minimize the faults in our inter national relationships. Call of War-Wearied World. Speaking as otllclnl sponsor for tho Invitation, I think I may say the call Is not of the United States of Amerlcn alone, It Is rather the spoken word of a war-wearied world, struggling for restoration, hungering nnd thirsting for better relationship; of humanity crying for relief nnd craving ussurnnce of lasting pence. It Is easy to understand this world wide usplratlon. The glory of tri umph, the rejoicing in achievement, the love of liberty, the devotion of country, the pangs of sorrow, tho bur dens of debts, tho desolation of ruin ull these are uppralsed alike In all lands. Here In the United States we are hut freshly turned from tho burial of an unknown American soldier, when a nation 'sorrowed while paying him tribute. Whether It wus spoken or not, u hundred millions of our people were summarizing tho Inexcus able causes, the Incalculable cost, the unspenkubiu sacrifices and the unut terable sorrows, and there was the ver-lmpelllng question: How can im munity Justify or God forgive? Hu man lime demands no such toll; ambi N HARDING tion nnd greed must bo denied it. If misunderstanding must take the blame, then let us hnnlsh it, and lot under standing rule und make good will reg nant everywhere. All Demand Liberty and Justice. All of us demand liberty and Justice. There en- not be one without the other, nnd they must be hold the un questioned possession of nil peoples. Inherent rights are of God nnd tho tragedies of the world originate In their attempted dental. Tho world to day Is Infringing their enjoyment by arming to defend or deny, when slmplo sanity calls for their recognition through common understanding. Out of the cataclysm of the World war came new fellowships, new con victions, new aspirations. It is ours to mnke the most of them. A world staggering with debt needs Its burden lifted. Humanity, which has been shocked by wanton destruction, would minimize tltc agencies of that destruc tion. Contemplating the measureless cost of war and the continuing burden of armament, nil thoughtul peoples wish for real limitation of armament nnd would like wur outlawed. In so berest reflection the world's hundreds of millions who pny In pence and die in wnr wish their statesmen to turn the expenditures for destruction Into menus of construction, alined at a higher state for thoso who llvo and follow after. War Growing Moro Cruel. It Is not alono thnt the world cannot readjust itself and cast asldo tho ex cess burdens without relief from tho lenders of men. War has grown pro gressively cruel and moro destructive from tho first recorded conflict to this pregnant day, and tho reverse order would more becouo our boasted civiliz ation. Gentlemen of tho conference, tho United Stutes welcomes you with un selfish hands. We harbor no fears; we have no sordid ends to servo ; wo sus pect no enemy; we contemplate or np prebend no conquest Content with what we have, we Beck nothing which Is another's. We only wish to do with you thnt finer, nobler thing which no nation can do alone. We wish to sit with you at tho table of international understanding nnd good will. In good conscience, wo nre eager to meet you frankly, nnd Invito nnd offer co-operation. The world dc mnnds a sober contemplation of tho existing order and the realization that there can be no cure without sncrlflce, not by ono ofus, but by all of us. No Pride Need Be Humbled. I do not mean surrendered rights, or narrowed freedom, or denied nspirn tions, or ignored nntlonul necessities. Our republic would no moro ask for these than It would give. No prldo need be humbled, no nationality sub merged, but I would have a mergence of minds committing nil of. us to less preparation for wnr and more enjoy ment of fortunate peace. The higher hopes come of the spirit of our coming together. It is but Just to recognlzo varying needs nnd pe culiar positions. Nothing can be ac complished In disregard of national ap prehensions. Itnther we should act to gether to remove tho causes of appre hensions. This Is not to be done In In trigue. Grenter assurance Is found In the exchange of simple honesty tVnd directness, nmong men resolved to ac complish ns becomes lenders among nntlons, when civilization Itself has come to Its cruclnl test. All Want Less Armament. It Is not to be challenged thnt gov ernment falls when the excess of Its cost robs tho people o? the way to happiness nnd tho opportunity to achieve. If tho liner sentiments were not urging, the cold, hnrd facts of ex cessive costs and the eloquence of eco nomics would urge us to reduce our armnments. If the concept of u better order does not appeal, then let us ponder the burden and the blight of continued competition. It is not to bo denied that the world has swung along throughout tho nges without heeding this cnll from the kindlier hearts of men. But the same world never before was so tragically brought to realization of tho utter fu tility of passion's swny when reason and conscience nnd fellowship point a nobler way. , I cun speak ofllclnlly only for tho United States. One hundred millions frankly want less of armament and none of war. Wholly free from guile, sure In our own ihlnds thnt wo harbor no unworthy designs, we accredit the world with the sumo good Intent. So I welcome you, not alone In god will and high purpose, but with high faith. Service to All Mankind. Wo nre met for a service to man kind. In all simplicity, In nil honesty nnd nil honor, there may be written here the avowals of a world conscience refined by the consuming fires of wnr, and made more sensitive by tho nnx lous aftermath. I hope for that under standing which will emphasize tho guarantees of peace, and for commit ments to less burdens nnd n bettor order which will trunqulllze tho world. In such nn accomplishment there will be added glory to your flags and ours, nnd tho rejoicing of mnnklnd will muke tho transcending music of ull succeeding time. Statesmen Closely Guarded. Washington, Nov. 14. An unusually heavy guard was thrown about Con tinent!!! Hall, where the first session of the armament conference was held, us a result of tho receipt of a number of threatening letters by high olllclals of the Stnte department. Increased precautions were nlso taken to protect the distinguished statesmen from ull parts of the world who are here for the conference. Kvery precaution bus been tnken to prevent any untoward Incident which might disturb the conference or the conferees.
