Arms Conference Delegate
Says Ideals of Empire and
Those of America Same:
War Impossible, He Asserts

NO nation had more to lose than
the British Empire at the arms con-
ference. but il accepted the rcsponsi-
putty of subscribing to the agreements
there drawn up mainly because of the
dependence it placed on the good faith
Of the United States," said Senator
George Foster Pcarce. Australian dclr-
gate and Minister for Home and the
Territories. speaking Yesterday at n
luncheon of the Canadian Club at the
Hotel Belmont.
"This responsibility was easy to
accept continued Senator Pcarcc,
because Britons believe that the
United states has identically the same
IDEAL as their own. Any reluctance
to place the imperial navy or parity
with that Of America disappeared be-
fore the belief that not even the Wild
est conception could picture the navy
or such democracy beng used ag
Eressively against a member OF the
British Empire"
Touching on The high lights Of the
conference as he saw them. the speaker
laid particular stress on the fact that
a precedent had been set at Washing-
ton and at Versailles that was unique
IN British political history in that the
dominions had been accepted on equal
ing imperial welfare. q right which
they viii continue to hold in the future
together with participation in all

British Empire should mold its policy

with the advice of ministers Of the do

ator Pcarce also emphasized the value
OF TIE Chinese settlement to the peace
Of the world, declaring thnt for the
last decade China has been the powder
magazine Of the raciic ard the Far
East.
The Australian delegate in the
course of remarks made in an inter

Reduction Of $4,000 officers and men
IN the army and $4,000 officers and men

features Of the proposals.
The committee points out that it /.

posed expenditure on oil stocks oil
