 Henry L. Stimson. American sec rotary of state, said he would not expand at the present time upon American naval needs. as it was we'll understood that the United States was looking 10 1hc conference for as much actual reduction as possible. The secretary said:
 'Aftor careful consideration and consultation with my COlluacu,E. | hay" decided not 10 make any state mcnt today as 10 the naval r,uuIrr- mrntS Of America. | do not think that to do so would particularly as sist our deliberations.
