LEAGUE CARES FOR ARMAMENT.
Lord Cecil Sees No Conflict With the
Monroe Doctrine.

Paris, Jan. 15.--Lord Robert Cecil,
who discussed with American journal
lists his views as to the work of a
league of nations, had little to say
relative to the limitation of arma-
ments. He expressed the opinion,
however, that the league of nations
certainly would provide for the limi-
tation and decrease of present arma-
ments."
Asked what effect the formation of
a league of nations would have upon
the Monroe doctrine, Lord Robert as
serted he could see no conflict with
the doctrine. He said we must await
events in Germany, pointing out that
If she turns over a new leaf she should
be admitted. He said Austria is not
yet ready for a league.
