said the Times. "It is notorious that
no government and no statesman has
any confidence in Premier Lloyd
George.
Marquis Curzon's pompous, pre-
tentious manner and business inca
pacity unfit him."
The Times revealed that the do
minion premiers were discussing plans
for Great Britain to take the initiative
in a Far East conference when the
first notification of President Har'
ding's offer was received.
According to the Evening STANDARD
the British admiralty suggests that
the big powers rest upon sea strength

The Daily Telegraph expresses the
belief that the American people are
willing to stabilize naval armaments
on the basis of the same strength
for all.
Five nations have now accepted
President Hardlng's invitation-Great
Britain, France, Italy, japan and
China. The most enthusiastic re.
sponse has been given to the dis
armament proposal. While France
announces that she will go into the
