I'VE are ready now for confer
ence 0f the powers"
In this simple manner did Sec
retary Of State StinsOn announce
today that the long sought Anglo
American naval agreement has
heen so successfully negotiated
that both Great Britain and the
United States are ready to sit
down with the other world powers.
Japan. France and Italy. in = gen.
eraI world conference.
The long-Sought naval nn-
derstanding between Great
Britain and the United States,
which is to serve as a spring
board for another world dis
armament conference, was re-
garded in Washington today
as something already achieved.
Neither President Hooyer nor Sec
retary Or state ssifnson would say
as much today. for publication any
way. but the fact that Premier
Ranlsy Macdonald made up his
mind to come to Washington within
a few hours after receiving the
latest American note made sucn an
announcement almost unnecessary.
No cne here can envision Mac.
Donald's riSking his own prestige
and that of his Labor government
by dramatically dashing across the
Atlantic and returning with empty
hands. That would be spectacle
of failure calculated to stun the
world and put strain on Anglo
American relations that could not
be removed for yeaFs.
Stimson's Statement
Nobody expects any such thing.
On the contrary. the expectation is
that Macdonald will paw a flying
visit to Washington. confer with
President Hoover, probably an.
nounce the accord here, and then
return to London 10 summon the
powers for round-table parley 20
complete the work of the original
Washington conference.
Secretary Stimson stopped short
of definite commitment. All he
would say was this:
The note we sent was not of
such a nature that you could say 1t
brought an agreement. but it was
working toward one and could have
caused Premier Macdonald to be
confident that one could be reached. =
The obvious relief of Stimson
from the. strain of the last week
permitted a generous Interpretation
of his particularly in view
of the apparent fact that Washing
ton has agreed to let Mac Donald
proclaim the success of the ne
gotiations.
Somebody has done some com.
promising on the cruiser question.
which has been the sticking point
for several years in efforts to ar
rive at an Anglo-American under,
standing. That much is certain for
week ago the British admiralty
and American Navy experts were
so far apart as to make "the states
men almost despair of ever reach,
