Washington.-The groundwork for
another international conference to re.
write the laws of war for tho subma-
rine and other e agencies OF attack
on land and sea has been completed
by the arms delegates.
Under . resolution adopted by the
armament committee, preparations for
the new conference will begin imme-
diately upon conclusion OF the Wash.
ington negotiations. The United States,
Great Britain, Japan. France and Italy
will be represented, and the American
government will select the exact time
and place OF meeting.
The first step toward revision OF
warfare regulations is to be taken by
a commission presumably composed
Of international law experts without
plenipotentiary powers, but the resolu.
ton provides that after they have
agreed the five governments shall con.
fer as to the acceptance OF the report
and the course to be followed to So
cure the considerations OF its recon-,
mendations by the civilized powers"
1t Is taken for granted that questions
OF national policy as well as legal con,

cisions reached, and that the whole

The ornaments committee adopted
the resolution at a short meeting
called while most Of the other activi
ties Of the conference were awaiting

troversy. The far eastern committee
likewise met and readopted its previ
Gus declaration on the Chinese radio

ton asking congress to accept Henry
Ford's offer for the Muscle Shoals,
Ala, properties,
Four developments Of outstanding
Importance marked progress in the
Muscle Shoals negotiations and
brought to a close the negotiations
between war department officials and
representatives Of Henry Ford which
have extended over a period Of more
than Xix months, w. b. Mayo, acting
for Mr.. Ford, delivered the signed
contract proposal for purchase and
lease of the nitrate and water power
projects made by the Detroit manu-
f%aCturer to the war secretary in the
afternoon, thus terminating the nego,
tiations between the department and
Mr.. Ford.
Senator Underwood, Of Alabama,
after a conference with Secretary
Weeks, during which he asked ap,
proval OF the contract, said; While
don't think the secretary will give an
unqualified endorsement of the Ford
proposition. am quite sure it will
be a friendly endorsement"
Secretary Weeks continued the
work of drafting the report for con.
gress and informed callers at the de-
partment that he would submit the
document and report at the same time.
Strength for the Ford contract de,
veloped from what was considered an
unexpected quarter in congress, when
nine of the eleven House members
from Wisconsin declared their opinion
in a joint measure to Mr.. Weeks that
the best interests of the country
would be served through adoption of
the Ford contract.
In transmitting the letter, Repre-
sentative Beck wrote Secretary Weeks
that he personally felt that 1.-The farm
interests Of this country demand that
this project be turned over to Mr.
Ford"
"Mr. Ford, as no other employer OF
labor In this country" Mr.. Beck con
tinued, has set the pace for high eff
ficiency, good wages and low cost ol
production. In the matter OF fertiliz
ers he no doubt will be able to render
not only the farmers but every other
interest which rests upon the farm :
