NIPPON FLATLY
REJECTS PLANS
AND INDICATES
DECISION FINAL
Second Armament Conference
Appears Certain as Diver
Issue Remains Unsettled
MEETINGS POSTPONED
Next Session of Naval Com
mittee Will Not Be Held
Today as Scheduled

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-(By the
Associated Press) The arms confer,
ence naval committee, which faces a
perpleXing situation in it's effort to
agree on limitation of submarines, to-
night postponed its next nesting until
Wednesday so that the French and
possibly the Japanese might receive
from home more definite instructions
regarding the American compromise
proposal.
All indications here, however, point
ed to continued objection to the
American plan by both the Japanese
and the French At the same time,
the Americans and British appeared
to feel that in offering to scale down
their submarine fleet TO Uc,5-J tons
each, they had made a maximum con-
cession in the interest of an agree
ment
Plan Later Meeting
In these circumstances, more deri-
mite shape was assumed by the move
ment for a later conference, to be at
tended by more nations, Tor another
examination of the submarine pro-
lem, and for future meeting of the
great powers to discuss the general
possibilities of further armament lin
itations. There were indications that
the plan for world submarine con-
feernce would be put into concrete
form quickly. The proposed new con-
ference would be put INTO concrete
armaments probably would be held in
1928 or 1929, and provision for it
would be made in the treaty that is to
arnhOdN, tho baaiciOnS of tho praSe0r
meeting.
Postponement of the naval commit
tee meeting from Tuesday to wednes-
day is understood to nave resulted
from a request by the French dele
gates, who nave not yet heard the
verdict of their home government on
the American plan to FIX American
and British submarine strength at
$4,000 tons and to make a status quo
arrangement for France, Italy and
Japan.
Expect Paris to Refuse
The impression among French dele
gates tonight was that the plan would
be unsatisfactory to Paris. A sub
marine tonnage of 10000 tons has
been suggested for france by her
naval experts, and under the Ameri-
can proposal she would have only
about 81 900.
The Japanese maintained silence as
to their future course, but there was
no evidence that they intended to re-
cede from their flat refusal to accept
the American compromise. The Jap
anese have told the conference they
consider that the 10000 tons is nee
essary to their national security in
place of the $1,000 allotted in the COM
promise agreement. In some quar-
ters, however. it is hoped that further
advices from Toxic may soften some
what their proposition.
Should the American plan fail to
bring the powers together, it is sug-
gested by some of those connected
with the conference that considera-
tion may beSglven to a proposal for
a general building holiday in subma-
rines, under an agreement that all
five powers would leave their sub
mersible strength distributed as at
present in the various sea areas.
