LONDON, July 2S.-A preliminary

meeting is likely to be held within
a month somewhere on the Ameri-
can continent This, means the
Pacific Coast, either In the United
States or Canada This Informa-
tion was obtained today from 10

These nations are the United
States, the British Empire and ia
pan. The purpose of this informal
conference will be to discuss the
problems of the Pacific and to agree
to the agenda on this subject for
the larger and more formal con-
ference in November.
1t is settled that Prime Ministers
Hughes and Massey. of Australia
and New Zealand, will attend on
their way home from London and it
is entirely likely that Prime Min
lister Lloyd George himself will 60.
The reason why Washington is
ruled out as a meeting place is the
fact that 1t Is the capital where all

Britain still is pursuing her idea
of a preliminary conference to be
held before the main armament and
Far Eastern discussion opens in
Washington.
But Secretary Hughes clings to
his belief that a preliminary gath
ering is not necessary. He also is
averse to holding a session of the
powers anywhere else than in Wash
ington.
These were the developments of a
conference yesterday between Mr..
Hughes. Sir Auckland Geddes, Brit
ish Ambassador, and Baron Shide-
hara, japanese Ambassador. 1t was
diplomatic day at the State Depart
ment, and the British Ambassador.
taking advantage of the presence
of Hughes and Shidehara, brought
up a subject which heretofore has
been confined largely to suggestions
from London.
Stick to First Plans.
Neuues sdld the Dominion pre-
miers were urging the preliminary
meeting, which they could attend
while en- route to their homes from
London.> They also were repre-
sented as favoring a later date than
Noyember IL for the main con-
clave. Shidehara, while saving his
plan would be more convenient for
the japanese, agreed to abide by
Secretary Hughes original pro-
gram
The British representation is un-
derstood to have been made largely
in behalf of the Dominion premiers.
The British home government, il rs
intimated, would not be unwilling
to hold the conference without the
colonial delegates, if the latter
found it difficult to adjust their
plans to the present program
The Harding administration ap-
parently is proceeding on the basis
of its initial plans. for intensive
preparations are now being made
at the State Department for the de-
tails Of the conference. These de-
tails, are being worked out with
the view of holding one meeting
and that one in Washington, to open
in November.

Negotiations are proceeding with
the foreign powers to reach a def,-

OF the meeting. The date will be
stated in the formal Invitation.
