Washington. March 19 P-Presi- dent Hoover plans to limit his pub lie speaking engagements to three or four q year. Already he has declined two invitations. from the American Red Cross and the Daughters of the American Revolution. which his pre- decessors have accepted annually al most as a matter of course.
 He has taken the position that d presidents public addresses should be messages of considerable impor- tance to the people. Unless they can be so considered, he feels they should not be allowed to cOnsum" time which might be more valua ble if devoted 10 the conduct of the eX- ecutive office.
 Thus far. lie has accepted only two of large number of speaking invitations received. one to address the Associated Press dinner at New York in April. and the other to take part in the Memorial Day ex- crcises in Arlington National Ceme- tcry in May. He has consented also to consider invitations from the American Farm Bureau Federation and the Polish Army Veterans as sociation of America to speak in the fall al Chicago and Savannah.

ARMS CONFERENCE
 HOPE IS BLASTED
No Possibility of League Meeting This Year

Geneva, March 19 Up-Leasue of Nations circles have informed the United Press that there will be no possibility of holding d general dis armament conference this year. The earliest date il was declared at which such q conference can be corvokcd will be the spring of 1850. but it is more than proball" that it will be well along in the fall be fore it can be held.
 This delay is due purely to the present lack of progress in the preparation for the conference.
 II will be necessary il was pointed out that the leagues preparatory disa raInent commission must have at least two more sessions before agreement can be reached on a draft project for general disa rnl- amcnt convention,
 The first of these meetings has already been fixed for April 15, While i, had been hoped that the commission might at that time pro cced to the second reading of the draft disarmament project which it prepared last year. it is now consd cred doubtful if even that can be done at the present time. Instead it is believed more than probable that the commission which heretofore has insisted on handling the military. naval. and aerial as. poets of disarmament in pienary session, will now he forced 10 ap- point at least military and a naval subcommission to study those parts Of the problem separately.
 In the event these two subcom- missions are able 10 reach a sutti- cient measure of agreement second meeting of the preparatory commits sion can then be conVoked for later in the year, probably in the fall after the September lea que assembly, In the event the commission is then able to adopt its draft disarm. ament commission. it will still be necessary to allow six months to elapsr for the various governments 'c ''tb'N ti' pl oJfNt ,'IOit tOIlNok ing the final conference for its adoption.
 This delay of six months has al
 ways been accorded by the leasu for the study of all draft conven- l lions. and it $ considered especial, necessary in the present instance il order 10 allow the new admnistra l ton at Washington and the new | English government that will conn
 into power in July ample time fol
 establishing their disarmament | policy.
 As d consequence there is no pos | slblllty of the leagues first genera
 disarmament conference being hclc
 until well into 1880.
 To offset this delay. however. tn, ! league expects 10 be able to con
 yoke for this year it's first intcrna | tlonal conference for the progres.
 sivc codification Of intcrnationa 1 law.
 This conference will be held at tn l Hague in the fall.
