EXCEEDS RAIL

The astounding growth of motor
bus travel in the United States il
revealed by the fact that motor bus
routes now exceed by per cent the
total mileage of American railroads,
the American Automobile Associa-
ton announced yesterday.
The mileage Of the common
carrier motor bus routes Is also
49, per cent greater than that of
the electric railway, the association
pointed out. adding:
Steady progress has been made
in adopting the motor bus to the
transportation needs of the country.
Bus registration has reached to-
tai of about $4,000 units. This to-
tai is not large compared with an.
tcmobile registration. but % appre-
ciate its full significance, il must
be compared with the number OF

BLUE BOOK To
ALLAY FEARS
On TREATY

BY international News Service
LONDON. Oct. 23.-Belief was ex-
pressed in official quarters today
| that the British white Paper" and
the French 'Blue Book" containing
the Anglo French naval agreement
and all correspondence relating
thereto would allay fears, notably
| existent in the United States and
italy that the two powers had en-
tered into a secret diplomatic pact
such as menaced the worlds peace
before the great war.
British newspapers, in comment
ing upon the two sets of papers,
pointed out that they contained
very little il anything not pre-
viously known. Some newspapers
| maintained that the British and
French governments were respon-
sible for the suspicious because of
their delay in making the Anglo
French diplomatic correspondence
public. !.
The two books OF revelation"
brought the situation down to the
American note stating that the
Anglo.French proposals were not
satisfactory as the basis for future
international disarmament negotia,
tions.
Look To u. 8. Now
Apparently, the British govern
ment believes that the next step IN
disarmament work is up to the
United states. 1t was indicated that
Britain and France now look to the
United States to make counter pro-
posals or at least suggestions as to
the basis upon which further naval
limitation negotiations should be
taken up.
Intimation Is given that both
England and France would welcome
an informal meeting with q repre-.
sentative of the United States to
discuss the status of disarmament
and the American viewpoint as to
the basis of a new formal confer
ence.
Sir Austen Chamberlain, British
| foreign secretary, and M. BRAND
| French foreign minister, will be In
Geneva, along with the representa-
| tives of the other interested powers
when the League of Nations council
meets in December, and 1t was
pointed out that this gathering
| would furnish an opportunity for
a representative of the United
| States to consult with them infor-
mally.
Meeting Stirs Doubt
1t is feared in many quarters,
| however, that such meeting
| would be futile owing to the fact
that America has already stated its
naval position. the naval require
ments of the United States and the
basis upon which the Washington
Government would reopen negotia-
| tons.
The Anglo-F'rench correspondence
first suggested five classes to
which limitation discussions would
be extended. They were later re-
duced to the following four: Battle
ships, airplane carriers. surface
ships of 10000 tons and less carry.
ing guns of more than 6-inch cali
Der and submarines.
/ AS France made concessions to
the British viewpoint on naval dis
armament, the British promised to
support the French contention that
army reserves should not be counted
as an actual part OF the standing
army when the time comes to dis.
cuss limitation OF land forces.
