Only the most unforeseen circum-
stance-a general election-will now
prevent Premier Lloyd George from
going to Washington for the disarm-
ament conference, according TO the
views of close advisers in Downing
Street to-day. This determination was
reached when the Foreign Office be-
came confident that the Silesian mess
could be Strengthened out next week
at the conference of the Supreme
Council in Paris They have equal
confidence of the success OF the Irish
negotiations.
The possibility Of an autumn ses-
sion Of Parliament is again looming,
however. and the Prime Minister s
programme is now outlined as follows:
He will go TO Scotland at the end of
August ami will pass the entire month
of September in the deep seclusion OF
Scottish hills and moors. The location
Of his retreat has MOI yet been made
public, hut 1t is known that 1t will be
away from all railroad and telegraphic
communication.
IT is now hoped that the Irish nego-
tiations will reach an advanced stage
before August is over leaving Septen1-
Der in which 10 think the settlement
over. and then II legislation Is necessary
Parliament will be called either in Octo-
Der or December, leaving November for
the Premier's American trip. IL Is only
In case the Irish negotiations develop IN
such fashion as TO necessitate an ap-
peal to the country by a general election
that this programme will be changed
The week end talk OF his going TO Wash
ington before November with the do
minion Premiers has been effectually
checked By the cold water which Wash
ington dashed upon such a plan
At the fnal session OF the conference
OF dominion Premiers here much time
was devoted TO developing dominion
viewpoints regarding the Washington
conference, and IL is certain that Mr..
Lloyd George will be fully arrsed with
the opinions OF the domnions when he
goes. 1t Is understood that he has fur
ther pledged himself 70 consult them by
cable before committing them to any
Pacific or disarma ament policy for the
empire
1t is also almost certain now that
Lord Curzon. Secretary or State for
Foreign Affairs. viii go to Washington.
The very bitterness of Lord Northcliffe's s
attacks on the Foreign Office has made
1t necessary for the Government not to
do the slightest thing that would admit
that Lord Northcliffe was IN any way
right
