day as assured. although official no.
LITIGATION Of the meeting had no,
reached this government. Unless
there has been projected some salts
factory proposal for cruiser Emita-
ton, and SO far the American gov
eminent was unaware OF any having
been put forward, administration
officials had little hope. however
that concrete progress would result,
from the commissions meeting.
Since the fifth meeting OF the pre-
paratory disarmament commission
last March little has been accom-.
rlished toward solving the difficult
les in the way of naval disarmament
The Anglo French naval com promise
having been rejected by the United
States and practically abandoned by
Great Britain, probably would NOT
be discussed.
Real Reduction
The American government has de.
clared itself for real reduction and
limitation of naval armament" and
oppressed the belief that the Franco
British agreement would actuall,
tend to defeat the primary objective
Of any disarmament conference in
that it would not eliminate compe.
tition in naval armament and would
not effect economy
The American position regarding
cruisers and submarines was said to
be unchanged from that urged at the
three power conference at Geneva in
1927. This government has. how.
ever. expressed its willingness ito
use its best efforts TO obtain a basis
Of further naval limitation satisfac-
tory to all powers. including those
not represented at the three power
conference In Geneva The United
States was described as willing to
take into consideration In any con-
terence the special needs of France
Italy. or any other naval power for
that particular class Of vessels deem-
ed ny them most suitable for their
defense.
This attitude, expressed by Secrc.
tary Kellogg In his response to Great
Britain and France In connection
with the Franco British compromise
has not resulted in further discus
sions Of the question with the United
States. There hal been indicated ~
Geneva disposition that the League
before convokinE the preliminary
commission. should await the re-
noval OF some OF the naval diff
cnl'ies. 1t was thought. that the
meeting probably has been decided
upon. however, with the hope that
the delegates Of the naval powers
might reach some. agreement con-
corning the types Of cruisers and
submarines TO be limited during pri-
vate conversations in the course OF
the general negotiations in April.
II was understood here that the
agcnda Of the preparatory commits
sion would include the Soviet pro-
posaI for partial disarmament and
the German proposal for publicity
with regard to armaments
