Disarmament Body
May Be Ready to
Meet During 1928

Geneva. Dec. o. RD - Leading
European statesmen think it is wiser
to move slowly than to run the risk
of wrecking the proposed disarma-
ment conference through lack of suf-
ficient preparations for it.
The opinion was expressed. after
1.-THE council Of the League of Nations
had requested the preparatory com
mission Of the disarmament confer
kence to indicate when an interna-
tional conference could reasonably
he called.
The general belief in league cir
+, cles here is that the work of the
preparatory commission will be con-
cluded and everything will be in
readiness for the commencement Of
the disarmament conference early in
1928.
! The council Of the league has made
a recommendation for putting into
effective functioning as rapidly as
possible the machinery of the league
in case Of any emergency in order to
prevent war. 1t has been decided by
the council to notify all states that
the council will lend it's cooperation
to secure the conclusion of arbitra-
ton and security agreements.
