FRANCE IS READY
FOR DISARMAMENT
Desire Expressed After Brit
on's Speech Advocating
Slow Policy for Nations.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
GENEVA, September 19.-The adj
dress before the disarmament com
mittee Of the assembly of the
League of Nations by Sir Cecil
Hurst, Great Britain, in which he de-
clared that 1t would be better to
make haste slowly with regard to
technical preparations for a general
disarmament conference. has had its
reaction upon the French delegates.
This reaction may be summed up
as follows;
I'VE wish to prepare for a general
disarmament conference in all ways,
both inside and outside of the League
OF Nations, so that when the psy-
Geological moment comes for calling
the conference we will be ready.
THE question when .he conference
should be called ought to be in the
hands of the league council, as the
subject is political and not technical.
The league's much-abused commission
OF coordination, to which the task of
preparing for a disarmament confer
ence was assigned last year after the
assembly voted the protocol, should
cont.nu" :he technical preparation
which il h35 begun.
France Is Ready.
Frances superior war council and
general staff already are prepared to
furnish a positive disarmament pro-
gram. II is up to the other nations
to do likewise
This viewpoint was obtained from
| the best qualified spokesman Of the
French delegation.
The statement Of Sir Cecil that 1t
would be a great mistake to permit
the impression to prevail that the
millennium had arrived, and that 1t
would be better to go slow and leave
| the matter in the hands of the coun-
ell of the league. caused some talk
among the delegates as indicating that
the British idea possibly might be
connected with the reputed desire of
President Coolidge to have a dear
mament conference convened in Wash.
lngton.
Z. was the opinion of Sir Cecil that
there should not be another failure
by the league to bring about disarma-
ment. He thought that all the ma
tions should Immediately begin,
through their war and navy depart
ments, technical preparation and that
an inventory should be made by them
before calling upon the League of
Nations to act again.
Property Seizures Reported.
subject that is bothering the
league arises from reports that the
Turks in the Goyan district of Mosul
are confscat.ng the property of Chris
ttans and driving them out of the
country at the point of the bayonet.
Neither young or old are reported
being spared by the Turks.
An appeal received by the league
from the harassed people asks the
league in the name of huma nifty if it
will permit "an entire people to be re-
moved from the disputed area before
a decision regarding its future is an
nounced." The appeal declared that
Goyan Christians were being saugh-
tered by the Turks, but it contained
no details in this respect
