 There was no question that Col. Henry L. Sluuson. American Srcro- tary of state. was highly pleased with two major developments during tn" preliminary exchanges, One of thosa WIS the decision yesterday 10 avoid setting up technical committees and the other was the manner in which the conference leaders have been able to put political considerations ahead for discussion before details of naval strength are even mentioned.

Colonel Stlm- son, Premier Macdonald. Mr. Waka- suili NJ. Tardieu and Signor Grandi gathering at 10 Downing street late yesterday agreed that no committee Of experts be created but that each delegation make its own decision.

 Speaking for Mussoiuf, Dino Italian foreign minister has insisted stou}y im all conversations with his colleagues. that Italy Wts entitled 10 naval equality with amy other continental power. This allu- . sion is Of course 10 France, which is the only other continental power represented here, Premier Tardirl persists in rrjcctjn" docisiveIy any idea of I'rcnch-ltaljan parity.

 The problem assumes an incrcah- ,nGjy serious aspect when it is re that SiEnor Crandi and N. TardieI have pointed out that in .ach of their countries there has been d strong revival Of naJionalisu in recent years stirring the popuI1r and expectation.
