2 HIE BEE: OMAHA. THURSDAY. DECEMBER 1. 1921. Visit of British Premier May Mean End of Alliance English Delrgatci Ready to Discusi Anglo Japanese Agreement Before Clow Of Conference. By ARTHUR SEARS HENNING. Washington, Nov. 30. The .crap ping of tlic Ai'glo-Jjp"11'6 alliance u fxpected to be one of the reiulti f . I'riroc Minister Lloyd Ctorge'i visit to Washington to attend the international conference on the limita tion of armament. The official spokesman of the British delegation admitted yrster. day that the Briti.li plenipotentiary me prepared to aucusi tne queion of the future of the alliance before the conference adjourns. No move in this direction, however. l fx prcted to materialize until Mr. Lloyd Oeorge reaches the scene. The British prime minister is rep resented as more firmly convinced than ever that an understanding chould be reached by Great liriiam, the United States and Japan upon far cajtern affairs and that if such, an agreement should be achieved the Anglo-Japanese alliance fcliould be dissolved. Japan, surveying the con stantly increasing opposition to the alliance in the British empire, has hastened to hail the proposed tri partite agreement as an acceptable substitute. ' Harding Favors Action. President Harding has nude known his expectation that such an understanding would be arrived at by the three powers and bis ap proval thereof not an alliance or a treaty but a less formal agreement, which might be manifested merely by an exchange of diplomatic notes and the open door doctrine ai es tablished by John Hay. It is welt known that the United States earnestly hopes the Anglo Japanese alliance will be -abrogated ana one 01 tne oojccis 01 mc in clusion of Pacific and far eastern questions in tne agtnda undoubtedly was to pave : the way for its dis solution, Another Conference "Likely. ' President Harding's plan for a con tinuation of such conferences as the present pne from which would evolve an association of nations to act on world problems has already begun to materialize. The decision to appoint a commission on the abolition oi ex Va territoriality jn -China to. report 15 months hence, indicates that an other conference on far eastern ques tions is contemplated. Senator Borah, according to the view in administration circles, com pletely misinterpreted the president's suggestions as to an association of rations. The plan which has been suggested by President Harding that' future conferences be held similar to the present conference on limita tion of armament, was not intended to be a means of undermining the league of nations, it was pointed out at the White House today. The presi dent did not have- the thought, it was stated, of trying to rival the league through the creation of a new association of nations. , The thought in the mind of the president, it was explained, was that if the present armament conference proves the success which he believes tt will, it. is only natural that this method, once proved successful, should be used again in reaching agreements on other international problems which call for settlement. Shantung Fight Near Solution at Conference . (CiratiniMd From Face On?.) tion should be withdrawn when con ditions warrant. "'""S wu ne general suoject ot foreign troops was considered the problem of foreign telegraph and radio facilities in China without its consent, with the argument appar ently tending toward "a reference of that feature of the negotiations to 3 mare general conference on Pacific problems to be held next year. ' , ItTits approach to the Shantung prpblem, the conference is said to have been influenced by many in trieafe considerations. China's representatives have indicated they wanted the question raised openly for all of the nine nations to debate, nd one Chinese delegate, Dr. Wang, declared that the "good of fices" negotiations by no means meant that the subject was "outside the conference," Japan has indicated reluctance to debate Shantung at the regular conference sessions, because it accepted the invitation to Vash ington with the understanding that specific subjects should be ci).sid red only by' the nations directly concerned. Claims Based on Grant. ' j Anoiner complicating , circuits stance is that Japan bases its claim to Shantung on a direct grant con tained in the treaty of Versailles, which has been ratified by five of tne nine nations represented, but '.which China refused to accept be cause ef the Shantung section. Great Britain, France and Italy also are parties to the secret treaties by w;hich, during the war, they promised to support Japan's claim to the Kai Chow lease. The American delegation is said to have felt that the proper way to deal with the question at the pres tnt stage would be through tender of ''good offices," although main taining liaison with the conference. It is expected that for the most part the negotiations will be carried on directly between the Chinese and Japanese delegates. At tomorro''i meeting, Secretary Hughes end Mr. Balfour are to make preliminary suggestions, but thereafter they may be represented by authorized spokes men at most et the Chinese meet ings. From American quarters came hopeful expressions. The issues, it was thought, new could be taken op in Washington in an atmospnere more favorable for results. Bufcrtm frM MM CM.

China won further concessions yciterday in the conference of the nine powers on questions affecting the Pacific and the far east. In conformity with the Root res olutions declaring for the territorial and administrative integrity of China, the Pacific and Ur eastern committee adopted resolutions look ing to abandonment ot foreign courts in China. The resolutions drafted by the sub committee, headed by Senator Lodge provide for an international comnu. sion of jurists, which is to report within a year whether the Chinese laws and court practices warrant abandonment of the foreign courts created under treaties granting xxtra territorial rights to Lliiua. . The Chinese delegates then press ed another of their points that declaring tor witnuravvai 01 an lor cign troops from Chinese soil, and also for ahandonment of foreign tele graph, radio and police wire systems. pr. bic presented information re garding the number of troops and extent of foreign wire systems, in which the Japanese predominate.
