tion of Armaments appeared to be
near today, according to informa-
tion coming from apparently reliable
sources.
Despite the warning by the United
States that the major points OF
Americas sweeping program for the
limitation of naval armaments must
be accepted, 1t is reported that Ja-
pan is insisting that her tonnage of
capital ships under the proposed
plan shall be increased to a ratio
of seventy percent as great as the
tonnage of the United States and
Great Britain instead of sixty per-
cent as suggested by Secretary
Hughes.
1t is understood that the repre-
sentatives of the American govern
ment in the conference are standing
firm on the Hughes program and are
vigorously opposing what they re-
gard as unnecessary bargaining and
