ping on the Yangtze River. which
would hamper activities of American
and other gunboats engaged in eVacu-
ating foreigners to the China coast,
were communicated TO the Navy De-
partment.
Rear Admiral Hough of the Ameri-
can Yangtze patrol force. reported
that virtually all ships in the Yangtze
area were coal burners and short
age of fuel, caused by serious labor
troubles, may require that the craft
be sent to Shanghai.
The only alternative, it was said,
would be the shipment of coal from
Shanghai to the river patrol vessels,
which, in the opinion of Navy Depart
ment officials. would seriously en-
barrass those in charge of the Yangtze
evacuation.
Hankow Conditions Bad.
There is much difficulty assembling
coal supply due to serious labor
troubles" Admiral Hough's report
said. 1T may be necessary TO have
sufficient coal shipped from Shanghai
to get the coaI-burning ships down the
river, and for this reason it may be-
come necessary to send all coal-burn-
ing gunboats through TO Shanghai as
soon as they can be assembled at
Hankow."
Conditions at Hankow were de-
scribed by Admiral Hough as very
bad"
Practically all business at Hankow

GENEVA, Switzerland, April G.
N. Paul Boncoslr of France today pri

of his compromise proposal concerning
limitation of naval tonnage.
The Preparatory Disarmament Com
mission adjourned soon after the
opening of its session TO permit con-
situations with London and Washing
ton and private negotiations by the
delegates Of the leading naval powers.
Tonnage Descriptions Asked.
The French compromise stipulates
Ahat, while maintaining the system OF
Limitation by total tonnage instead
of tonnage by categories of vessels,
the building programs of the various
countries would be described in the
Limitation treaty. and notifications
made Of any shiftings, as, for instance,
from cruisers to submarines or vice
versa.
Meanwhile signor de Marinis official
~ deposited the Italian proposal that
publicity he restricted and that types
and details Of warships, including
their armament, be divulged merely
when each keel was laid
Lord Cecil bluntly told the commits
sion that this proposal had no value
whatsoever. as it struck a blow at the
root of all limitation, which was found
ed on complete knowledge of what
kind OF warships other countries con-
Semplated building.
Proposes Personnel Limit.
Signor de Marinis also introduced
q proposal that naval personnel should
be limited, together with the military
effectives of each country, furnishing
q total figure for the whole of the two
categories in question.
Lord Cecil announced this afternoon
that he had made a counter PROPOSE
ton to M. Paul-Boncour concerning
the method of naval limitation, and
that the French delegate had taken it
under consideration. The British rep
resentative reiterated that he expected
an accord would eventually be reached,
