Assembly, Disappointed at
Own Efforts. Turns Eyes
Toward Washington

GENEVA, Oct. 1.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press disappointment at the
absence of results. attained by the
League of Nations since the last as
semblv and hope in the forthcoming
Washington conference, were the two
principal sentiments expressed in to-
days debate by the assembly on dis
armament. Many seats were empty
on the floor of the assembly, the
question having been fully threshed
out in sommittee
The assembly, however, was arous-
ed to considerable enthusiasm, par
ticularly by tfE eloquent defense of
M. Noblemaire of France, against ac-
cuSatiOns of militarism brought
against his country. Lord Robert Ce-
ell, who presented the committees
report on disarmament, said he hoped
the Washington conference would do
something for the control of private
manufacture and traffic in arms.
Captain Melbourne Bruce, Of Aus
tralia, who followed Lord Robert, said
1t was matter of as much interest
to Europe as to Australia if his coun-
try were obliged to go on arming, fol-
lowing the example of the Asiatic
countries, in order to protect it's 12,-
900 miles of seacoast
I'VE can do it," he said. I'VE have
shown we could do it during the war
However, we have great hopes the
Washington conference will make it
unnecessary for us to do SO. But, if
the Washington conference draws up
concrete plans, are we ready to re-
spond? A year ago the assembly ex-
pressed the same wish. and the year
which has just passed has been vast
ed"
Lord Robert then said:
"lf we can find out just what ap-
preparations for ornaments are re-
quired to keep order in the interior
of countries and to protect treaties,
then we can find out how much is
needed to satisfy the hatred among
nations.''

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1. = Impor-

the agricultural credit arrangement

ers of the war finance corporation,
Eugene Meyer, managing director of
the corporation, said today upon his
return from three weeks tour which
took him to the west coast.
Director Meyer said he was convinc
ed that the agricultural industry, par
ticularly that of livestock, had suffer-
ed from lack of adequate financing
and felt certain that the government
credit now available would establish
the needed financial backing. 1t
would act basically, according to the
corporation head, to save the breeding
and feeding herds of the nation.
Meyer said he found agricultural
conditions far from satisfactory but
added that he had spread generally
the advice to begin the bhying and
feeding of cattle. Banks appear ready
