WORLD’S NEWS IN ''CONDENSED FORM

Reservation to Agreements. ' Washington.—The two Arms Conference treaties limiting the naviea of the great powers and restricting tor use of submarines and poison gas were ratified In a landslide of appro-

bation by the senate.

To tbe naval limitation covenant, &*- , daring a naval building holiday aim ! fixing a ratio of capital ship strength i for the United States. Great Britain. ! Japan. France and Italy, the seaate gave Its final assent by a vote of ,4 to 1 and then almost without debate It accepted. 71 to 0. the pact design*! to prevent submsrtne operstloos against merchantmen and to outlaw

chemical warfare altogeincr.

Tbe only negative vote was cast against the treaty by Senator France. Republican, Maryland, who said he Regarded naval rednefon aa a dang**--our, expedient under present world conditions. Every other member of the "irrecondlable" treaty bloc who was present cast a vote In tbe sfflrmative, although Senator Borah. Republican. Idaho, told tbe sr-ate be regarded the treaty as only a beginning and Senator Johnson. Republican, California. declared he accepted the fortifications "status quo" provisions for the Pacific “with grave misgivings." A speech assailing .the poison gas ar tides of the submarine and gas treat' was made on the floor by Senator Wadsworth, Republican. New Tor*, chairman of the Military Committee, but before the ratification roll cal! he left the chamber and did not vote Tbe New York senator disagreed with the statement In tbe trea » text that use of gas In warfare bad been “Jastir condemned by the general opinion of the civilized world," argued that chemical warfare had not proved actually more- brutal than other accepted methods of destruction and expressed a fear that tbe treaty pledges would be

violated In any emergency-

As soon as tbe two pacts bad been disposed of. administration leaders brought formally before the senate the general Far Eastern treaty. Debate on It will begin tomorrow, with Indications pointing to opposition from a .small group of senators who believe that China's Interests were net sufficiently proLrcted. It Is toe hope of the leaders, however, that both this pact and tbe Chinese tariff treaty, the last remaining covenant of the con-

rerence. will be ratified.

Of the 74 affirmatives In tbe naval S et vote, 48 were Republican* and

Democrats.

Immediately after this ratification vote. Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, tbe Republican leader, called up tbe

submarine treaty.

Calling ettentlon to published reports that France would probably adopt a reservation to tbe submarinegas pact, so that affb could *dete for herself what constituted a chant vene! under tbe terms of the submarine artldek. Senator Porah. Republican. Idaho, .suggested that such a qualification might operate to destroy

the real purpose of the treaty. He ! ammunition, wb asked whether a reservation. If adopt- j duty, are to be ed by France would come back to the ! racks. American senate for ratification, and ! omLwwwm, Senator ?>dge replied that in his opin- j
