Balfour said
that
the
speeches
of
Mr,
Harvey
and
the
Japanese
Ambassador
credited
the
feeling that
success
of
the
conference
was
assured,
for they reveal-
ed that
the
spirit
in which
the
United
States
and Japan
were entering
the
con-
ference
was the
same
as
that animating
Great
Britain, and
he
was
cgn?dent
it
would be
the
common
c<pirit
of
all
the
nations
participating
in
the
corference.
Mr.
Balfour
regretted
that
the{
was
very
little
expectation
that
Mr.\Vloyd
George
will
be able
to
take
afu
»nart
through
the whole conference.
T
Vi-
ted States
Ambassador,
he addeu,
vi
:
the coming conference
as ‘‘an ordeal,
of battle,
but of faith’’. the
underlyiv
purpose
of
which
was
not
more
a
chai-
lenge
to
the League
of Nations
fhan
it
was
to the
Monro: Doctrine.
The
Ambas-
sador
reviewed
the action
of
the United
States
Congress
respecting
the
limita-
tion of the
arm
-
and
the
reduetion
of
naval
appropriations,
which,
he
said,
gave conclusive
evidence
of
the United
States
Govts.
confidence
in the
outcome
of
the
conference.
The
real
quastion
confronting the conference
is
not wheth-
er the nations nf the earth
can be brought
into
agreement
upon
all
things,
but
whether
they
will reach
an
understand-
in
= with respect
to anything.
He said"’it
is
to be
a great
test,
not of
the
sincerity
of peoples,
but of the ecapacity of cxisting
Govts.
to
sitisfy
the
universal
longing
for
peace,
prosperity
and happiness.”’
