Under plans launched by the Ameri-

The Friends Service committee said
thar a nationwide appeal would be

France and Britain At Odds.

Lord Robert Cecil seems converted
20 this view but neither the British
government nor the British public
accepts it. nor do they agree with the
French that the sum total of the
armaments of each nation should be
taken into account, including naval
as well as land forces.
These are the definitions which
must be agreed upon before any use
ful work can be accomplished. When
il is recalled that these same ques-
tions have formed the subject OF
continual disputes ever since peace
was signed it will be plain to every
body that the goal is still far away.
When indeed the writer carefully
examined recent Geneva documents
today to get material for this resume.
he seemed to hear in every line the
echo of those historic debates pre-
sided over by President Wilson seven
years ago when the covenant of the
League of Nations was drafted.
The same old difficulties arise end
not any of them apparently has
been eliminated in seven years of
wrangling. Keeping this IN mind
may save us Frenchmen from rash
hopes and cruel disappointments.

victims mother, Mrs. Asa Ward.
Here were gathered Mrs. Ward s

points in the case were gone over
and eventually 1t was agreed that
Roland Guptill did not fire the shot
that killed her son. and that young
Ward died by his own hand
Guptill was sitting in a car with
a friend on the night Ward was shot
and when informed of the shooting, he
recalled that he had found a shotgun
with one barrel empty and had fired
the other barrel in the air SO that 1t
might not be discharged accidentally
Il must have shot him." was Cup

on a program or armament limitation,
hut that is not the case. Its title is
preparatory committee and the
only purpose of it is TO decide not
solutions but mere definitions. That
* something, to be sure, but II is
theoretical and not practical
What is the purpose Of converting
the preparatory committee? It is to
reconcile the French and British con-
CeptionS Of what security, armamentS
and disarmament mean. These two
nations differ fundamentally in their
understanding of these words.
As the people of the United States
are deeply interested in the disarma
lnent question it Is worth while to eX
plain these differences.
Security First or Last?
Taking security first: The British be-
lieEe that security will be created by
disarmament, while the French and a
ma jOrity of the other confereeS main
tain that disarmament can come only
after security is established by means
of definite guarantees concerning arbi-
tration, sanctions, etc. An attempt has
been made TO mask this disagreement
10y equivocal texts, but 1t still Subsists.
What are ornaments? The French
maintain that not only actual visible
ornaments must be taken into ac-
count, but also what Is called war
potentialS.' meaning that the war
power of a given country must be de-
termined by the human and material
resources of that country for mobiliza-
ton.
Before the last war this question
vas solved by alliances. but since al
Eances have been abolished France
is left in a state of manifest in
feriority from this viewpoint. The
British, however, despite certain pure
" formal concessions, refuse to fol
low the French on this point.
Finally. there is complete disaccord
on the application of disarmament.
The French propose international con-
troll as the only sure way of guaran-
teeinc disarmament. They hold that
without such supervision disarmament
would benefit nobody except nations
of bad faith
