the vital issue in the politics of the
world powers if President Hard
ing's conference on the limitation
of armament fails to put a check
on international armament. Will
liam Jennings Bryan said here to-
day in an interview with the United
Press.
The people of the United States
and the entire world are demand
ing disarmament and have high
hopes" for the success of the con-
ference. the commoner declared.
Militarism the Issue.
Failure OF the conference. in
my opinion, probably would make
militarism one of the main issues
in the presidential campaign" Bry-
an said. Munitions makers and
others Immediately after an unsuc-
cessful conference would raise the
cry that the nation must be made
the most powerful military and ma
val force in the world. They. would
demand another armament race.
There would be the issue.
Should the conference fail to
reach an agreement l believe a
powerful reaction against the cab
inets in power will set in. The
people will demand new govern
ments that will stop spending bill
lions for armament.
Evil Forces at Work.
IF the representatives of the
powers here for the conference
will not agree to limit armament, I
am inclined to favor appealing to
the peoples Of these countries to
choose cabinets that will favor such
a step"
Powerful forces are at work to
defeat the work Of the conference
here and abroad and these must
be exposed to the public" Bryan
added Il do not wish to hamper

do not like some recent develop
ments which l do not care to men
