preveat a *s?virrence of the whoksal?

The Americsn obtervar, addrettlng
th? Near Esst peace conference bars,
took ?harp ittue with the Alli?e, how?

the payment of a reasonable tax, and
a general reelprscsl smnesty for ?II

Cunon appealed especially on be

Kumpe's economic ?slvstion would
be premsture, it was stated at th?
White House to-day.
As put by a White House ?pokes
man, Ju?t after the Cabinet mee?
wss concluded, any announcement
at this t.:no would, if the langusg>
of tho itreet could be uaed, "ap?'
the bea.is."
The Ptesldent is convinced th?,
a conference of the nations involve'
could sit around a table and eettt
these questions, following the es?
smple of the Wsshington confer?
ence. At the Cabinet meeting to-day
it was learned later, the idea of ay
plying he four-power Pacific pae
to the European situation wa?
cussed.
Te G? N? Parther Now
Ae to whether tb? United State?, h?

stance? and conditions at th? time.
The President went a? far a? ft?
wished for the present. It wa? stated.
in his m??s?g? to Congre?? last ?reek.
A? emphaaixed In Th? Tribun? tb?

mated strongly In that meaaag? that
h? might pursu? further th? cour?? h?
had al ready *?tart?d upon in the Wash?
ington conference, particularly ??
lustrated by the four power Pactf?
pact, and the naval treaty.
Gave No Gaaranty for China
It was polntad out thai at th? W??h
Ington conference the Intereat? of th? ?
United State? In th? Far East gen?r- {

ties guararrteelng the Integrity of China
and providing the possibility of tha-.
nation re-aatablishing Itself withou*.
outcid? lnt?rfer?nc? threatening th?
process.
This treaty, a? wa? pointed eut at
a ? time bv ?"?okesmen for th? coun?
tries concerned, did not guarantee
China's ability to re-eatablUh herself.
It merely gave h?r the opportunity t<s
do so, with the guaranty that she would
not be subject-d to Interference from
other interest??! countrle? in th? pro-s?
ees.
It was made clear at tbe White
House to-day that when th? sew Eu?
ropean conference ia called at th? eug
geation of this country no mov? will
he mad? which will overstep th? tradi?
tional foreign policy of the United
States, so far aa entangling ?lllanc??
are concerned. There will be no binding
1 promue, for example, that this country
will go to th? aid of Krane? if G?r
many ?hould again invad? her any mor?
' than there is a binding promis? in ts?
' four-power Pacific pact on th? part
of the United State? to go to the aid
of Japan if any of her po?????loa?
should be invaded.
"Breathing Spell" Treaty
Th? promt?? in th? four power pe?t
is merely an agreement to hold eon?
; sultation with the other three mem
\ bora in the event the possession? ef am?
one of the four nations in the P?
should be invaded. It is not an of
f?n?iv? and dcfentlv? ?lllanc? It is
mor? on tha order of the "breathing
spell" treaty.
Such would he the policy of the
United State? with respect to any tree
ti?? which might grow out of tr.?
ropean conference. Thi? point, in the
opinion of ?ora? of th? President? ad
i viier?, I? ?hat tha President had |i
1 mind when it developed at the Cefctau
ng that circumstsnee?
dltions would determine whether tbe
ates would be a party to s
i n?w European fiv? cr six power pact.
If it (hould develop, a? th? spokes?
man for France certainly would desire,
that there should be a binding agree?
ment to defend each other'? bo???

not be a party to that, although H
