PLAN FOR ADVANCE

members OF the British Cabinet. The
London Foreign Office asked the opinion
OF this country regarding an advance
meeting on the theory that It would be
difficult for some Of the Dominion Pre-
miers to come here in November. the
time tentatively fixed for the forma,
gathering.
Secretary of State Hughes sent word
through Ambassador Harvey that this
country preferred not to have a pre-
liminary conference because of the pos
sibilty OF differences arising there which
might endanger tho formal conference.
Secretary Hughes believes the best
chance for agreement rests on the plan
Of the United States to have all the par
ticpa.ing nations frankly lay their cards
on the table without fixed preconceiyed
prejudices or rigid advance understand
ings.
Great Britain's ready and complete
acquiescence in the views Of this country,
when they had been explained by Secre-
tary Hughes, Is very gratifying to the
Harding Administration.
Secretary Hughes was in n particularly
optimistic frame of mind to-day about
the conference. Exchanges Of opinion
as to the exact date for the opening
session are progressing rapidly and 1t
now seems practically certain that Presi-
dent Harding's original choice. Armistice
Day, November IL. will be chosen.
The United States is not expected to
raise any objection to the participation
in the conference of any other nations
with special interests In the Far East
provided that is the wish of those al
ready invited. namely, Great Britain
France. Italy. japan and China. 1t has
been suggested that Holland, on account
of her colonial possessions. should be
permitted to take part and she may
later be invited.
President Harding and Mr.. Hughes
are willing that Holland shall come fr
II the other participating nations think
best, but they would strongly oppose en-
largement Of the conference to include
nations not directly interested In Fa'
Eastern problems. lest 1t would become
unwieldy and accomplish nothing prac-
tical.
