GENEVA REJECTS
j. s. SUGGESTION
ON DISARMAMENT
League Commission Holds
Navy, Air, Army Should Be-
Considered Together.
BY Henry Wood

United Press staff CorresDondent
GENEVA, June 1.-THE United
States thesis that naval armaments
should be discussed separately. from
aerial and military armaments. was
rejected today by the sub.commis-
sion of the League of Nations pre-
hminary disarmament conference.
The sub-commission adopted the
French thesis that three armies are
and must be considered
together.
May BE Temporary
The rejection Of the American
scheme may be temporary as the
plenary session of the preliminary
conference may reverse the sub
commission.
Meanwhile members OF the League
council were returning home with
progress on disarmament blocked
until September. The council faces
one of it's gravest crises with Brazil
already resigned and Spain threaten
ing to withdraw from the League.
France Objects
France told the conference Thurs.
day that she could not disarm until
her security had been guaranteed
adequately. Sir Austin Chamberlain,
the British foreign secretary, then
requested delay in consideration of
French proposals to amend the
league covenants to conform with
the French idea of security.
The council held that Brazil can
not resign before September when
the assembly will he in session and
prepared to elect a successor.
