Washington, Aug. 11.-CBy the A. P.) Putting into definite terms it's proposal for disarmament conference, the United States today invited the great powers to unite in "a practical effort to remove the causes of misunderstand- ing and so facilitate reduction of the worlds enormous outlay for the mater fals of war.
 In formal identic notes of invitation forwarded to Great Britain. France, Italy and Japan the American govern ment pledged it's own unstinted coopera- tion in such an effort and further de- fined as follows it's own conception of the principles involved:
 That there can be no hope for peace or stability until the tax burden result ing from heavy armaments has been re- 1uced.
 That such reduction is possible only If troublesome International problems are solved by common consent. That among these problems the Pacific and far eastern questions occupy a no- sition of ''unquestioned importance"
 That although there is no intention to dictate the scope of the conference. the discussion should touch upon matters | which have been' of international con- 1 cern as well as those now admittedly controversial; and
 That the question of naval armaments ] might well be considered first. though there should be no barrier to a full con- ! sidera tiun of armaments of every sort | Concidentally with the dispatch of the invitations to the four great pow | PTS. China was asked to send a dele-a- ton to take part in those discussions oi 1 tho conference which relate to the Pa | cific and the far east. AM five nations thus invited have indicated info-mally | that they would accept and formal re. | sponses are expected to reach Washing. | ton within a few days. oneninG the way | for a more detailed preliminary neEo tiation of the scope of the conference. 1 Tn every resnect the note of invitation follows the principles previously defnet by this government in it's informal con versations with the other powers. hu nsrticular attention was attracted by the suggestion that solution of in far eastern situation should includ '"common understandings with res7ec to matters which have-been and are q
 international concern" State depart ment officials would not interpret in text of the note but the general as e1untion here was that under this de finition q way would be found to dis cuss such questions as Ysp and Shan tunc which ''have been" of internstiona concern hut which Japan now Is incline to regard as closed incidents.

borne unless the present vast public ex- oenditures are greatly reduced. It is idle to look for stability, CT the assur- ance of social justice or the security Of peace, while wssteful and unprodust- i've outlays deprive effort Of its just re- ward and defeat the reasonable expecta- tion of progress. The encrmous dis bursements in the rivalries of armzments manifestly constitute the greater part Of the encumbrance upon enterprise and national prosperity; and avoidable or ex- travagant expenses of this nature is mol only without economic justification but is constant menace to the peace of the world rather thza an assurance of it's preservation. Yet there would seem to be no ground to expect the hzlting of these increasing outlays unless the pow CTS most largely concerned find a satis- factory basis for an agreement to sSect t,eir limitation The time is believed to be opportune for these powers to ap- proach this subject directly and in con ference; and while in the discussion of limitation of armament the question of naval armament may naturally have first place. it has been thought best not to exclude questions pertaining to other armament'to to the end raat all principal measures of relief may have appropriate consideration. It may also be found sd- visable to formulate proposals by which | in the interest of humanity the use of new agencies of warfare may be suitably i controlled.
 Solution of Pacific Problems Tt is. however, quite clear that there can be no final assurance of the peace of the world in uae absence of the de- sire for peace, and the prospect of re- duced armaments is not a hopeful one unless this desire finds expression in a 1 principal effort to remove causes of mis- ! understanding and to seek grounds for agreement as to principles and their ap- plication. It is the earnest wishes of this government that through an inter change of views with the facilities afford ed by a conference. it may be possible to find a solution cf Pacific and far east ern problems. Of unquestioned importance
 at this time t..st is, such common under
 standing with respects to matters which
 have been and are of international con-
 cern as may serve to promote enduring
 friendship among our peoples. Subject Open to Suggestions
 Tt is not the purpose of this govern
 ment to attempt to define the scope of rae
 discussion in relation to the Pacific and
 far east but rather to leave this to be
 the subject of suggestions to be exchanged
 before the meeting of the conference. in
 the expectation that the spirit cf friend
 ship and cordial appreciation of me im-
 portance of the elimination of sources
 of controversy. will govern the final de-
 cision.
 Accordingly, in pursuance of the pro-
 posal, which has been made and in the
 light of the gracious indication of it's
 acceptance. the president invites the gov
 ernment of Great Britain to participate
 in conference on tae subject of limita-
 ton of armament in connection with
 which pacific and far eastern questions
 will also be discussed to be held in Wash ington on the 11th day of November, . 1921"
