Naval Reduction Agreement to

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-Reduction Of
land armament will be very definitely
preached in the Washington conference
before Premier BRAND Of France leaves
Washington, though the evolution Of a
concrete scheme must be relegated to an
other and more comprehensive conference.
Meanwhile il is intended that naval
reduction agreement shall be embodied IN
a formal treaty. which would have to
pass the American Senate by two
thirds majority.
But not even the hopes raised by dis
armament prospects -dtslOdge the Far
Eastern question from its central part In
the picture.

China 70 America may cOnceivably have
a further surprise to spring here, but that
is unlikely. What needs doing for China
cannot be done from without. The posi-
bility Of cOference action at the moment
includes q Shantung settlement involving
probably withdrawal Of British ana
French from Wei-Hai-Wei and Kwang
Chow Huen, respectively, abolition or the
spheres OF influence and the further de-
velopment Of a cOnsOrtium to insure the
application Of loans TO purely productive
purposes.
Such a program, if coupled with dis
solution Of the AnglO-Japanese alliance,
would lay a heavy strain on Japanese

atives here have created a very favor

Grated by the conference may count for
much.

of the whole conference problem. The
question has already been approached
By the Far East committee, which sat
