MOTORS INC 5513 WOODWARD AVE I'urpone of Tnlk Now accepting the fact that there haa been an agreement of aorta It atm la totally outside the known purposes of the president and the secretary of statu that any agree ment should commit the United States to anything beyond the rec ognition of the rights of others and the promise to respect these rights Plus the pledge to play fairly In the matter of naval restriction and In the matter of Pacific Inland forti fications to observe a holiday with out end our powers' the United States Great Britain Japan and rance could each affirm such a purpose the congress of the United States might be expected to assent to such a proclamation of policy But Is something quite different from a promise to Join In a quadruple entente which might replace the existing Anglo Japanese alliance and undertake the regulation of the Pacific or the defense of China All of which is another way of saying that since America has tem porarily ceased to speak for her self she has been blessed by a thousand willing spokesmen and we are living in a riot of propaganda Presently we shall have official classification It may even be In duced by a very restive group of gentlemen on the crest of Capitol Hill When that clarification comes the fact will be disclosed that Mr Hughes has not agreed to an alli ance or consented to a guarantee This Is axiomatic But today given Mr Hughes silence one must choose between believing one's senses and one's ears And this Ater all is secret diplomacy accepting the popular definition It is secret diplomacy since It conceals not the policy or the purpose of' other nations but completely hides American policy and purpose It was in precisely this atmosphere that Paris wrought with known results And never present conference began has the situation superficially at least been so reminiscent of Paris as It Is tonight DENIESWHS ORGED CONVERTS Leader Says Report Is Part of British Plot New TorkDec Charges that the Moplahs of
