SUBMARINE SEEN

WASHINGTON, Dec. q. - (By
Associated Press.) = Suggestions
that the whole submarine problem be
left to a future world conference
gained increasing prominence today
while the delegates to the Washing
ton arms conference awaited form u
replies from France and Japan 10
the American compromise proposal
for submarine limitations. There was
no meeting today of the naval com
mittee.
The general impression that the
question of land armament will not
again come before the conference for
detailed consideration was strength
ened by the departure of the Italian
military staff and the announcement
that the British military experts will
leave the last of this month.
