John lReds. Conaty and Rody
Cooney, Of the Washington
American Professional basketball
League club, were traded today to
Brooklyn of the same circuit for
George Glascoe and Rusty Saun-
ders.
No money was involved in the
deal which takes effect immedi-
ately. Cooney and Conaty will
leave here today to join the
genial Garry Schmeelk, while
Manager Lou Sugarman has made
reservations at the Manor Golf

Saunders.

locals needed strengthening. Start.
ing at the beginning of the season
with what appeared to be the out

Palace tossers failed to live up to
expectations despite their two VIC
tories over Brooklyn in the league
race.
Manager Sugarman realized that
The club was not producing the we'll
known punch. This WeLl-knoWn
punch was left to Cooney and
Conaty, but both failed to come
through with the goods. Basket

why they failed to come through.

PRESIDENT PLANS
NEW ARMS FARLEY.
AIRCRAFT QUESTION OCCUPIES
LARGE PLACE IN LIMITATIONS
TO COMPLETE HARDING PLAN
Secretary Kellogg is Asked to Formu.
late Plans for Naval
Limitations

BY the directions of President Cool
idge, Secretary Kellogg has initiated
an intensive study of the minutes of
the original Washington conference, to
acquaint himself with what TRANSFERRED
in regard to those elements of naval
armamen for which no formula of
limitation was found.
The study probably will require dis
cussions with the secretaries of war
and navy and with the naval and mill
tary experts of the government, so the
president may be made fully aware of
the practical and technical aspects of
the supplemental conference proposal.
There is no doubt the aircraft ques-
ton occupies a large place in admins
tration consideration of the arms limi,
tation matter.
The president feels there Is oppor-
tunity now for n conference to take up
and complete the work of the 1921
meeting which laid down the 5-5-3 rule
as TO capital ships and also found it
possible to limit proportlonate aircraft
carrier tonnage and to fix the maxi
mum size of auxiliary craft and naval
guns. A decision as II extending an
invitation with regard to n further con-
ference is unlikely until the secretary
has completed the preliminary survey.
Mr.. Kellogg expects to take up with
naval experts the practical possibilities
of n further limitation upon cruisers,
aircraft and other naval auxiliary
craft.
There are many technical matters TO
be considered before proposals for limi-
tation of cruiser and submarine ton
mage can be formulated, or before the
Washington government itself can
Judge what might he accomplished with
regard to aircraft Limitation.
The aircraft phase of any new con
ference promises to be of great i'm
portance in view of Developments since
the original naval limitation treaty
was signed.
