LEAGUE COUNCIL
HOLDS PRIVATE
MEETING TODAY
Disarmament Question to
Be Dominating Problem
of Session.

BIZ United Press
GENEVA, June 13.-The council
of the League of Nations met pri-
vately today with it's formal and in
formal calendars crowded with mat
tiers bearing directly on the well
being and perhaps the peace of Eu-
rope. The question of disarmament
or, rather of failure to disarm-
was scheduled to be the dominat-
ing problem.
The council has before it two re-
ports, registering the practical fail
ure to date of all the leagues eff
forts of disarmament, following over
a year of intensive preparation and
work on the subject.
The first report will be that on
control of the private manufacture
of war material. Last years League
assembly insisted that an interna-
tional conference on this question
should be called before the coming
1927 assembly.
No Agreement Seems Possible
The commission charged with the
preparation of the draft convention
has been obliged to report, however,
that no agreement on the question
seems possible. The United States
insisted that the control should be
extended both 50 the government
manufacture as well as the private
production of war material. To this
Italy, Japan and other countries alb
solutely refused to agree, with the
result that no draft convention
could be reported back to the coun-
Gil.
Even more serious than this fail
ure, however, will be the report of
the leagues preparatory disarma-
ment commission on the question of
worldwide limitation and reduction
Of ornaments.
While the report contains what is
purported to be a draft project for
an international convention on the
subject, it also registers the fact
that no agreement was possible on
the limiting of military reserves, on
the method of limiting naval arma-
ments and on the question of limit
ing armament budgets. In addition
on virtually every other question, on
which more or less agreement was
reached, reservations were made by
SO many nations as to render it GER
tain that the convention could never
be launched and ratified.
Strong Protest Expected
The failure of the. leagues dis
armament efforts is expected to
bring out strong protest from For
eign Minister Stresemann on the
grounds that Germany accepted
disarmament under the Versailles
treaty only, on condition that the
rest of Europe disarm accordingly,
and that this obligation has now
been rejected. In addition the Ger
mans insist that the proposed draft
convention, even if it could be
launched would only result in
sterilization of Europes present
ornaments, while Germany insists
that the first step toward disarma-
ment must mean reduction at
least
1t is expected the council will
merely refer the two reports to the
September assembly, first in order
to await the outcome, of the Cool
idge three-power naval conference;
and, secondly, for the purpose of
giving the assembly an opportunity
to air the whole question of dis
armament and see what step can be
taken next.
The session of the council will
probably last ten days, as the
agenda includes some forty interna-
tional questions.
