Italy Disappointed Ouer
French Submarine Claim,

ROME, Dec. So.-Disappointment over
Frances attitude at Washington on the
limitation of submarines was expressed
by the. Tempo" to-day. THE confer
ence,. which raised such high hopes for
the limitation of the terrible CONNIE
tltion IN armaments, leaves the world
with bitter taste Of enormous and
1oollsh expense for armaments that
naV prevent the economic rehabilita-
tion Of Europe" says the "Tempo's''
editorial.
France is taking heavy reSponsi-
bihty," it continues, ''in impeding the
reconstruction and pacification Of
Europe. Besides the failure in the
limitation of sea armaments. there il
Frances refusal to cooperate in the
reduction of land ornaments. This
places Europe under the constant
heavy weight Of threatening war.

cluding four experimental types. Four
of the five were obsolete, and the Brit
ish navy desired the right TO scrap ex-
rerimental ships at any moment, Lord
Lee said. He added that the aggregate
tonnage proposal of fhe United States
seemed "inadequate" in view Of all cir
cumstances, including the fact that no
agreement to limit submarine tonnage
was in sight.
France Offers Il. Compromise
Admiral dc Bon said he did not sec
that any country had definite views
concerning the type Of carrier to be
reached, but Tint in the present case
Il 2500O-ton size limitation seemed
reasonable France felt she needed two
such carriers in European waters and
a third for colonial possessions, he
added, which would mean an aggre-
gate Of $4,000 tons under a 25,00O-ton
size limitation, but would compromise
on 10000 tons and build ships ac-
cordingy as a voluntary matter
Admiral Baron Kato said $4,000 tons
aggregate would allow japan only one
and half airplane carriers which
would not be sufficient for protective
purposes She desired three carriers,
he added, and suggested $1,000 tons as
the Japanese aggregate, saying he
would, of course, raise no objection to
proportionate increase for the United
States and Great Britain.
Hughes's Proposals Affirmed
Secretary Hughes then summarized
the situation as showing that Gr-au
Britain desired $4,000 tons in carriers,
Japan $1,000, France and Itay 10000,
and. adding a tonnage of $4,000 for
the United States and the stipulation
of $4,000 tons maximum per ship and
armament not exceeding cight-lnch
guns, presented the question for air
nation by the delegations, which was
given.
Lord Ice brought up the question Of
replacement building for airnlane car
riers, and it was agreed that each
power should supply itself to its m XII
mum tonnage, with the understanding
that obsolete experimental tonnage
should be scrapped without REGARD 20
building restrictions of the ten-year
holiday plan on other t pes of war
vessels.
The committee adjourned subject to
the call OF the chair after Mr.. hughes
had outlined the work remaining to be
done in subcommittee or by experts
pending advices to the delegations
which would permit resumption of the
discussions of policy as to submarines
and auxiliary cruiser size.

1000 Rifles american
Bought To Be Destroyed

BERLIN, Dec. 30.-~Nine thou
sand hunting rifles purchased in
Holland by I. r. Ellsworth, of
New Orleans, which were con-
fiscated at Munich by the Entente
Disarmament Commission on their
arrival from Holland recently,
have been ordered destroyed by
the lnter-Allied Control Commits
sion. 1t has also been stipulated
that the contract be Cancelled.
The deal, closed on November
25, involved S,500,000 marks.
Ellsworth took up the case
through American diplomatic cir
cles here after the rifles were
confiscated, but the control COM
mission held that he had no right
to buy or sell the arms.

eomplish almost the same purpose.
The only question remaining. there

answers from Paris, Toxic and Rome,
is the wording of the treaties which

This will be difficult, but one about

Harding Much Pleased
At the White House to-day 1t was
made known again that the President

New-York tribune., 1921-12-31

to agree on a limitation for submarine
tonnage, was much pleased over the
whole conference and hoped TO see a
new conference within very few years
accomplish on the submarine what the
present conference has done on the
capital ship.
President Harding Is known to be-
lieve that If nothing more is accom-
plished~-this thought was expressed
before the conference reached it's agree
ment on airplane carriers and was
based on no later reports than had
been made to him by Secretary OF State
Hughes at luncheon to-day-.the con-
ference will be regarded in calm retro
specSion at some future day as a signal
success.

FORMER PASTOR
Of CHURCH HERE
CRITICALLY ILL
Rev. S. v. Falt of Anadarko Suffers
Attack of ApopIexy; Condition
Today Showed Only Slight
Better Change.

The condition of Rev. S. V. Fait,
pastor of the Presbyterian church at
Anadako, is very low as the result of
an attack OF apoplexy according to
word received here by phone today
1t was learned that at meeting
in his church Tuesday night, the
first touch of the stroke became ap
parent. He was seated when the at
tack came. Calling ushers to his
side, he attempted to leave the
church and found that he was unable
to walk. He was assisted to Ihis
home and at 4 o'clock Wednesday
morning he became unconscious.
First word Of his illness was re.
ported to Chickasha yesterday after
noon. The telephone report this
morning stated that while his con
dition seemed to be slightly i'm
proved tnlS morning, ne nad not re-
gained consciousness. Fears for his
recovery were entertained.
The suddenness of the attack is
illustrated by the fact that on Sun
day night Rev. Fait preached at the
local Presbyterian church. AT that
time he seemed in perfect health.
The news of his serious illness has
come as complete shock to the
many Chickasha friends of the af-
flicted man.
Rev. Mr.. Fait was formerly pastor
of the Presbyterian church in this
city.
