Washington. Nov. f5.--Members OF
the British, japanese, sand French
delegations TO the Conference on
Li..itetion OF Armaments worked late
last night preparing data. for state
ments made at the second plensry
session today. The fun extent Of Mr.
Hughes diplomatic coup became
known yesterday, when 10 was learned
authoritively that Mr.. Balfour Of the
British group and one Of the French
ENJOYS had brought with them from
their rcspe ctive countries proposals
for armament Limitation which each
had hoped TO present for considera-
ton. Those plans are now compsI =
lively worthless, except for use as
counter proposals. The Hughes idea
is not only before The Conference but
before the people of the world His
idea struck the bulls eye or public
opinion. and the delegates realize that
Il must be discussed thoroughly before
any other plan can be urged. The
best that any foreign delegate now can
hope for is to make suggestions and
to offer amendments which he believes
necessary TO the consummation ot
Americas plan.
One feature OF the Hughes pro.
posal has met with warm sympathy
from the British. That is the on,
which would limit any given natior
to o submarine tonnage displacement
OF 10000 tons. IL was pointed OFT
that this would work no HARDSHIP

ENGLAND IS SATISFIED.
WITH US. PROPOSAL
London, However. Admits
Naval Experts Are Reluctant
to Scrap Hood Warships.

BY Associated Press ID Every Evening.
London. Nov. 15.-General satisfac-
ton is expressed in the newspapers
this morning at reports from Wash
ington that the British and Japanese
delegations to the armament confer
ence are PREPARED to accept in princi-
pie the American proposals for a ten
year naval holiday and the scrappinc
OF all but limited number of war
ships.
IL is freely recognized that tho
United States offers to make sacrifices
both in money and aspira tions which
are greater than she asks OF the other
two nations. At the same time. il i:
remarked that Great Britain, as a fal
scattered empire. is in quite a difreren
position than the self f-contained Unite,
States, and that circumstances ar,
conceivable in which Great Britain
might be called upon to defend IN,
British isles and at the same time pro
tect the outlying parts If the empire
as we'll as guard trade and food routes
There are also some indications o
reluctance among the naval experts :,
agree TO the proposal that Grea
Britain scrap the four postwar bat
tleships of the Hood type, contracts 70
which were recently placed. Thes
warships, il is contended, are superio
&c any so far projected by the Unite'
States. and cancellation of the con
tracts would Immediately place Grea
Britain in an inferior position TO tn
United States as regards battleshlI
strength, as the American ships woul,
be newer and more powerful.
The experts further contend tina
any arrangement such as suggeste
by Mr.. Hughes cannot satisfactorily b
confined 10 the United. States. Grea
Britain and Japan, as otherwise
squirt in naval building by Europea
powers. or even perhaps south Arneri
can nations, might upset the contemp
lated balance OF sea power and lea
