To ARMS SLASH
SENATOR CLAIMS
Hitchcock, Nebraska, Says
French viii OBJECT to
DiSarning Unless They
Are Assured Protection,
SUCH A GUARANTEE
IS HARDLY POSSIBLE
Not Much Hope That an
Agreement for Military
Disarmament viii Be
Reached at Conference,
fBy The Associated PressD

Lincoln. Neb., Nov. 9.-United
States Senator G. M. Hitchcock'
democrat, of Nebraska, told 5000
University of Nebraska students
gathered to approve the coming
disarmament conference. that the
conferees will find two great OBJ
stacles to disarmament, one pre-
sented by France and the other by
Japan.
France" said the senator
with her great army OF S0O,o
men will object to military disar-
mament unless and until she can
be assured by other nations of pro-
lection from Germany in case she
disarms. The question is
whether the other nations will be
able to give France such guaran-
tee to protection as will induce her
to agree upon a military disarma-
ment. Very few people are so
sanguine as to believe that this
will he possible, and 1t follows
therefore, that there is not much
hope at the present time that an
agreement for military disarma-
ment will be reached at this con-
ference"
Had the United States Joined
the league of nations" he said, "t
and other members of the league
would be committed to a pledge or
protection for France against ex-
ternal aggression. and France
would have no excuse, or much
less excuse, for maintaining het
enormous army"
Naval Disarmament.
Turning to naval disarmament,
he said an entirely different sit
uation was found.
Upon the broad eXpanse of the
Pacific" said the senator, "is to
be fought out the great tourna-
ment between occidental and ori-
entail civilization. Whether this
tournament is to be one OF wal
and bloodshed or whether 1t is 70
be one of trade and commerce
may depend somewhat upon the
results reached at the approach
ing conference. Indications
are that Japan will consent to dis
armament providing an agreement
can be made by the terms of which
she will be guaranteed what she
considers to be her special rights
and interests IL the Asiatic coast.
After declaring that American
hopes were wrapped up In the con-
ference, the senator said he saw in
it a "re-entering of counsels OF
nations" and an effort ito play a
part in the rehabilitation of the
world"
Resolutions approving the con-
ference were adopted.

Washington. Nov. 9.-Results of

committee. said today. His state
ment said:
Fighting democrats who cap

become convinced of the increas-

ministration and to realize that the
comprehensive program of recon-
struction proposed by the demo-
cratic administration was obstruct-
ed and in chief measure defeated
by a republican congress during
1919 and 1920. With the disas-

POPE ENDORSES
HARDING : PLAN
To LIMIT ARMS
Conference viii Have the
Support of "the Greatest
Moral and Spiritual Power
in the World"

Washington, Nov. Q (by the As
sociated Press. Pope Benedict
approved President Harding's plan
to bring about the limitation OF
armaments by common UNDER
standing. The attitude of the Holy
See is considered, especially by
Catholics as most important since
it secures to the conference the
support of what is termed by many
THE greatest moral and spiritual
power In the world"
Although the pope has no rep
resentative, Monsignor BonZano,
apostolic delegate here, will follow
the proceedings and report to the
vatican. The vaticans interest in
the developments is so great that
the allocution which the pope will
deliver November 81.
The Rome correspondent of the
Associated Press understands that
the pope claims a priority In the
movement for limitation of arma~
ments, which he hopes will lead to
disarmament altogether. His peace
note of August /, 1917, urged the
belligerent powers to agree on
some fundamental principles to
end the war and lead to Just and
lasting peace. 1t invited all coun-
tries at war to agree "on the sim
ultaneous and reciprocal decrease
Of ornaments" limiting them only
to what strictly was necessary for
the domestic maintenance OF pub
lie order.
AT the same time Cardinal Cas-
parri gave to the Associated Press
a statement in which the papal
secretary Of state explained the
pope's plan and his belief that
only disarmament could assure a
durable peace based on principles
Of justice. Cardinal Gasparri still
believes one of the chief reforms
to that end is the abolition of con-
scriptlon.
