NAVAL ACCORD EXTENDED

PARIS. July ASSOCIATED Press).- -
World disarmament was declared by
Lord Robert Cecil to have been brought
definitely nearer to-day by the action
OF subcommittee of the temporary
mixed Commission on Disarmament of
the League Of Nations in approving his
plan for armament reduction. The meas
ure provides for a general reduction Of
air and land forces. under the super
vision Of the League of Nations, as well
as for continental alliances against ag-
gression. [Amerlca would not be called
upon to come to the aid of attacked Eu-
ropean nations.1
Tie subcommittee formally approved
Loro Roberts plan and sent II back to
the full commission. 1t Is taken for
granted that the commission will ratify
the recommendation in its final session
tomorrow.
The full commission yesterday ap-
proved the British plan for extending
the Washington naval accord to all ma
tions. Thus the League Assembly. at its
September meeting. will have before it a
definite program for world reduction in
armies and navies.
During to-day's discussion of land
disarmament a French delegate said his
Government would want very definite
provisions in the agreement. so it would
be known extctly what the country could
depend upon in case of need. The
Japanese member of the subcommittee
approved the general terms of the plan
but declared he did not believe alliances
should be limited to continents, which
point he illustrated by giving instances
where forces from many countries have
been used together. as in the world war.
Lord Robert Cecil explained that no
one would be barred from aiding
country which hal been attacked. but
the continental agreement simply limit
ed the obligations of each country. All
countries would be free to enter a de-
fensive war, If they wished Hjalmar
Branting of Sweden, on behalf of the
smaller nations. expressed the view that
they did not favor any further military
obligations and suggested that any re-
form must be slow and cautious
In reply to Mr.. Branting's statement
Lord Robert agreed that the treaty
must be drafted carefully. In justifca-
tion Of the cautious attitude Of the
smaller Powers he cited the United
States as opposing any agreement which
might involve. it in the affairs Of other
ations.
The Jugo-Slav member suggested that
defensive alliances should be made be-
tween neighboring states. This idea.

Paris, July 5.
A plan to have the Germans construct
great public utility canals and tunnels
to develop the hydro-electric possibilities
of the Rhone Valley as an alternative to
the payment of certain reparations In
cash is being studied by the Preparations
Commission, but as yet 1t is not certain
to have the support of French labor

AS the plan stands II would require The
immigration OF 80, 900 German workmen
supplied by German contractors. who
would be housed separately. remaining
under the direction OF German foremen,
but the work would be supervised by
French engineers. They would be paid

proximity Of such large numbers of their

tion already alarming and the fear
growing that the winter will see thou
sands of idle French workmen walking
the streets. it Is generally considered un-
wise to provide work for German at the
expense Of French labor
The fact also is pointed out that ne
contracts cannot be faithfully carried
out unless at considerable expense en-
tailed by French supervision. as in such
works Of strategic Importance as the
proposed Vosges tunnel from st. Maurice

But while labor as rule opposes fhe
plan. the extreme Socialist factions con-
slider that the employment of Germans
on French soil would bring the two
peoples closer to harmony, and conflicts
and even schism are being predicted IN
the Socialist party.
The General Labor Federation intends
TO take up the question Immediately
and appoint committees representing all
branches of labor to investigate the
effect upon the French labor market,
which is now receiving requests from
Italy and England to provide an outlet
for surplus workers.
