DOMINION PREMIERS MEET
By tho Associated Press
I: .. ti.i 20. It In announced
u provisionally arranged that Premier
Lloyd Georgo will attend the Washing
ton conference on limitation of arma
ments. .....
President Hnnllng has been In
formed of tho desire of the Do
minion Premiers that advantnge be
taken of their presence In London to
-..Li.-t thn Pnclflc ciucstlon. at least.
to'a preliminary examination here, ac
cording to me Mimes. J.ne jLiciuicro
hope to be In a position at their meeting
today, adds the Times, "to take a
definite step forward In this matter with
the concurrence of tho United States."
i The Premiers met together yesterday,
the first time since President Hard
ing's Invitation to a conference at
' Washington, and discussed tho question
ef dominion representation at such a
conference. So far as disarmament Is
concerned, the dominions arc willing to
allow the Imperial Government to de
cide what should be done, but Australia
and New Zealand especially wish to
have a voice In any decision regarding
the future of the Pacific. Canada Is not
,much concerned, as her policy, It Is
pointed out, Is practically Identical with
hat of the United States.
Denies Opposition to Parley
Baron Hnyashl, the Japanese An
bJsador, denies that thcro is any
question of opposition on tho part
of Japan to President Harding's pro
posal for a conference at Wash
ington, which, on tho contrary, ho
laid, was welcomed. Japan was quite
ready to discuss with other Powers
questions of mutual interest, including
the limitation of armaments, on which
the Japanese Government already had
expressed Its willingness to negotiate.
Japan, however, desired to know be
forehand what subjects were to bo dis-
CUMtd.
"Otherwise," said the Ambassador,

"we may embark upon a never-ending
discussion.
"Tho suggestion that nnturally
nrlscri," continued the Ambassador, "Is
whether wo are ngaln to bring up
mntters which the Treaty of Versailles
has already dealt with. It is clear that
such matters as Shantung. Yap and
New Guinea, If raised, would result In
a general conference on points that are
already accomplished facts.
Invitation Not Accepted Yet
"Expressing my personal views, I
believe that a practical solution of all
the questions involved Is possible with
out interfering with matters of prin
ciple that already have been decided
upon."
Special Cable Dlspaten. Copvrloht, mi
London, July 20. Tho Dally Ex
press, owned by Lord Ucavcrbrook, n
Canadian in close touch with the
Government, through a leading editorial
yesterday, warned Jnpnn in the plainest
languago that Great Britain would re
fuse to support her in any anti-American
policy.
"we nrc convinced," the editorial
snys," that the proposal from tho
United Slates for a Pacific conference,
was made without nn ulterior motive,
and in the sole interest of the world's
peace. If Japan refuses frankly to as
sociate herself with us in thnt view we
shall be driven to believe that she
harbors designs Incompatible with
peace. Wo nro already agreed the
American alarm as to Japaneso arma
ments is justified.
"The United States like ourselves,
has given hostages in tthe shape of a
fortune In tho Far Kant. Her vast com
mercial Interests in China and her posl
Hon in the Philippines stand wide open
to attack. Japan has given no such
hostages to tho West, and her expendi
tures for nrmaments nro altogether out
of proportion to tho needs of her de
fense. "These facta aro significant. They
compel tho -suspicion that America
stands under tho menace of an attack
and if the suspicion hardens into be
lief the whole British Empire will be
on America's side.
"In 1010 friends of Great Britain in
America strove incessantly dny in and
day out to foster our cause. At tho
supreme moment they succeeded in
bringing the great republic over to our
side. The scenes hove changed. It now
behooves nil friends of America through
out the Brltlah Empire to stand by
her."

THE DAILY NOVELETTE
Lilac Time
By LAU11A RKID MONTGOMERY
When Mary got off the night train
nt the quiet littlo town of Ellington
bIio went directly to her home. Had
her neighbors known that sho planned
to return, thcro would liavo been many
Invitations extended to the lonely girl
who was coming back nlono after her
trln nbrontl with her Invnlld mother.
Tho search for health had been un
successful nnd Jfury lmd spent the re
mainder nt her cherished hoard of
money In buying her rctur trip ticket.
Sho had told no one of her coining,
for she had been too heartsick to write
after her mother had tnken tho turn
for the worue. She hnd the instinct of
ii wounded animal to return to the
places she knew; nnd ns Bhe drew In
long breaths of tho sweet country nlr,
die knew Hint she hnd done tho right
thing.
The Mcddlirott home was nt the very
outskirts of the villnge nnd unly near
one house, this wirs tho Smiths' house,
which was licxt door with large
grounds nnd many trees about 'it.
Therefore, when Mary set nil her doors
nnd windows wide open tho next morn
ing tnere was no one near enough to
observe. "I suppose some-one will nee
my smoko," thought tho girl ns she
lighted the kindlings under the log
in the grnte, "and I shall enjoy tho
chats with tmy old friends. There is
no place like home, I discovered while
nwny."
She bustled about hoping to set the
place In Its usual spotless order before
the ndvrnt nf the neighbors The longed
to ce nnd It was nearly 10 o'clock be
fore she slopped to listen ire tho morn
ing train tore through tho town.
"Why, Mary Mcddlloott, why didn't
you let us know you were coming
homo?" a pair of nrms thrown warmly
about tho slim, blue-ginghamed waist
nroused her.
"I just come last night," she said.
"I knew how good you would be, but I
just thought I'd creep In nnd get It
over with nlono.
Amanda patted her nrm gently :
"Well, you shan't sleep another night
here nlonc. I'll bo over ngaln to get
you for dinner."
"I'vo been planning all morning and
I can't benr to think of going away
to teach ; I want to bo nt home nnd
I m going to open a boarding house.
tlint do you think of tho plnn?"
'There are several peoplo I know of
now. The hotel has been closed all
winter nnd the teacher from the village
st-liool Is looking about now for 8
placo to board next fall and Mary
wondered why her old friend sud
denly halted with twinkling eyes nnd
stood ns though thinking: "And
what.'" asked thd girl.

f. y.'i. a ,,,cl'cat0 Pink staining her
hinooth checks ns she recalled tho
ntmrrcl between the two families. The
i. ii . grown out of n m"o trifle,
n ball tnrown by Mary's little brother
had broken a pane of rIom in the
Efccnbouse, ami touchy old Mrs. Smith
had fussed nnd nassed until the families
were on terms of bitter silence.
Amnndn. watching tho telltale ex
pressions flit over the younjr face, knew
that Mary wax thlnklnjTof tho brown-
cffii Fl7nk Sm,,n who lnl been u
jliijdhood sweetheart nnd whom Mary
had not seen for years. "Don't bother
to set bread this mornlnjr." she said

hurried over her dusting. She wanted
to get out Into the old-fashioned garden
nnd sco tho flowers that sho hnd longed
to sco on her trip, home. The yellow
roHS, badly In need of pruning,
swarmed up ngalnst tho squat bush
of flowering quince and trailed In long,
horny sprajs along the thick grass that
w dotted with blnxsoms of pink nnd
whlto clover. To tho east Mary's eyes
wandered and fell on the thlek row of
lilacs that divided the Mcddllcott
grounds from the Smiths' estate :
"'There, no one has touched those
bushes for jcors," she thought, recall
ing the old happy times when Frank
Nlticezcd through the bushes that be
persisted In caller lllne tree, "tlioso
branches nie growing over and spoil
ing my hwlgc. I guess I'll .lust start
right there with my trimming.'
Stretching lazily, she sat looking up nt
the tumuoiso blue pf Hie summer sky
nnd then jumped up and went In search
of her thcars.
Snipping nuny sho worked steadily
and there was a growing pile of
branches ns tribute to her Industry
when nn abrupt sound on the otner side
of tl'io hedge startled her. All her
boosted disregard of tho haunted hoiw
fled In un jnstnnt, and she stood mo
tionless waiting.
"Wont do you mean by touching my
lilac trees?" Tho voice was masculine
nnd touched with a crisp annoyance, the
voice or n,man wuoywns uctuuiuincu iu
obedience. '
Mary looked startled. She could see
no obc, but tho volco como from n few
meet away behind tno hedge: "What
do you mean? Your lilac .trees?" she
demnnded, "I guess "
There was n crashing sound nnd n
gray tweed arm made an opening In the
tangle of blossoms nnd a pair of brown
yes peered through; "You sound
mighty confident, but ns I happen to
bo tile why, Mnry, hello 1 1 didn't
know you wero expected home," he
ended with n glad note In hN voice thnt
brought n rush of rose to tho face that
had gone white.
"And I," returned Mary, "nndcr
stood thnt your house was empty except
for ghosts, ho 1 thought I'd prune your
lllncs for you. They nre crowding my
hedge," she added a bit tremulously as
his dark eyes dwelt disconcertingly on
her cmbnrrasscd face.
"Thero nro ghosts In the house," ho
said bcrlously, "ghosts of old memories
