UNCOVERS CITY OF 2,500 B. C.
Pennsylvania Scientist Reports on Ex
cavations at Beth-Shan,
Palestine.
Philadelphia.—Remains of the an
cient city of Beth-Shan in Northern
Palestine, dating linck as far as 2,500
B. C., have been uncovered by Dr.
Clarence S. Fisher's research party,
according to a letter received from him
by the University museum here.
Already several important dis
coveries have been made dating back
to the time when the Semites are
supposed to have entered Palestine,
about 2,500 B. C., and it is believed
thnt remains of an even earlier period
will be located.
University museum authorities here
believe Doctor Fisher's excavations
promise to throw much light on Bib
lical times and perhnps even on the
life of a thousand years before
Abraham.

Pleased With Conference
Washington — Tlie conference of
Washington is practically over. All
that remains to be done is minor and
despite present superficial quarrels and
bickerings, the results could be written
today. These results will be:
1. Tlie limitation of naval construc
tion, plus measurably scrapping the ex
isting units.
2. The postponement and not impos
sibly tlie prevention of an American
Japunese war.
3. The acceptance on the part of
each country of a set of abstract prin
ciples in the fnr east without any form
of guarantee for their application.
4. In some way, not yet quite clear,
the elimination of the Anglo-Japanese
alliunce.
The price of tlie first achievement
Is the surrender by the United States
of tlie power placed in its hands by
the last war to become the supreme
naval country of tlie world.
The price of tlie second result will
l>e the recognition of the specinl rights
and interests of Japan in all of the far
east, but particularly in Manchuria,
sucli recognition duly testified toby tlie
surrender on the part df Great Brit,
ain and the United States of that nav
al power which would permit success
ful challenge.
The price whicli the United States
will receive In return for tlie accept
ance of the third point will be a Ja
panese agreement to retire from Shan
tung and from Siberia. Tlie disappear
ance of tlie Anglo-Japanese alliance
will be the compensation that Mr.
Hughes will receive for not pressing
the far eastern question as it had been
expected it would be pressed In the
beginning.
These results will he regarded in the
Unit .! Slates as a great victory for
Mr. Xugke.-and for American diplomacy
on the continent of diplomacy. On the
continem of Europe tlie Washington
conference lias already been hailed as
a victory for British diplomacy even
more completed and far-reaching than
that of the Paris conference.
in Great Britain there will he a tend
ency to depreciate British achievement
and regret that no greater curl) lias
been placed on Japan, no serious effort
made to reduce Frencli arms, and fin
ally no closer association between the
l'nited Stales and Great Britain ac
tually arranged. Nevertheless, tlie
British people will rejoice in tlie es
cape Ir an a naval competition with
the United States, which they could
not afford, nr from a voluntary surren
der of sea supremacy to which they
could not reconcile themselves.
Not improbably the Washington con
ference will lie instantly attacked by
many so-called liberals tlie world over
as offering no relief for existing af
flictions of the world and representing
no forward step toward international
association or toward the league of na
tions.
On the other hand there will be a
general disposition in this country and
England to accept Mr. Hughes estimate
and regard tlie Washington conference
as a first step in the direction of in
ternational understanding. Mr. Hugh
es' conception that the way to begin
was begin, and that the limitation of
naval armaments was the one specific
and definite thing which could be done
lias prevailed, lias made the conference
what it has been, and tlie ultimate
success or failure will depend on
whether, as Mr. Hughes believes, the
present session proves a beginning or
an isolated incident.
One further consequence of the
Washington conference is likely to lie
the final dissolution of Anglo-French
ties. The bitterness here between tiie
two nations lias been more acute than
is generally known. M. Briand and
Mr. Balfour, for example, have never
called upon each other or met except
in the accident of tlie conference or
on social occasion. French support of
tile American thesis in the matter of
submarines has aroused a British re
sentment which is likely to disclose
itself in a startling fashion after the
conference.

day. "Uutil tin's action was taken there
was always tlie possibility of a period
of free wool. There is a linge quantity
of foreign woo! in bonded warehouses
at ports of entry. If one hour elupsed
admitting free wool there would have
been a great flood.
"One small importer said thnt one
hour of free wool would have netted
him $10,000. The action of congress
shows the government's interest in the
agriculture of the country. It shows
an appreciation of keeping our farms,
lieril> and flocks in condition to sup
ply our requirements.
"Prices have been improving grad
ually lor several weeks. Now tlie un
certainty is removed, things are back
to the law's of de'ii :nd In relation to
supply and possible imports. While
tlie emergency tariff remains, grease
wools must pay 15 cents per pound ;
skirted wools 30 cents, and scoured
wools, 45 ( outs.
According to the department of ag
riculture's report issued on September
30 the amount of wool on hand in tlie
country is four hundred million pounds,
which is much loss than many believ
ed.
"Til's is a very little more than the
normal stock IV r this time of tlie year.
Wool is being i-msnm d in fit s coun

until February. It seems certain that
the wool market must take n pro .

ones to foel tlie deflation of May. 1920
