The article presents information on various issues related to the U.S. The prestige of America in the East, sorely tried in recent years, is at stake. The U.S. have a long tradition of effective friendship for China, and on the whole the U.S. maintained the spirit of that tradition at the Washington Conference. That conference fell short of its goal, but it did propose real aid to China. The Great Powers would not give up their cumbersome control over China's customs tariff, but they did agree to raise the duties which she is permitted to levy. That would have given her sore-tried central Government a new support and prestige. The conference over, the Powers shilly-shallied. The treaties have only just been ratified.
