Invoke League of Nations
Clauses as Basis for
Security Pact.
FORMULAS COMPARED
British Charged With Being
DisincIined to Make
Any Concession.
BY WEBB MILLER
United Press Staff Correspondent

LONDON, March 29-Negotiations
between French and British dele
gates for a pact which would break
the naval conference deadlock,
reached a difficult stage today with
French circles expressing discour-
agement.
The French and British experts
met at the foreign Office and COM
pared formulas drafted by each
group outlining their respective
ideas of the possibilities of pact
offering security to France in re-
turn for reduction of her naval
tonnage claims. The ideas were
based on Interpretation of Articles
l land Is of the league of nations
covenant.
French sources represented the
British as disinclined to agree to
sufficiently strong Interpretation
Of the league articles to provide
security which France demands.
Thus the deadlock between Eng
land and France over Interpretation
of the two articles-a deadlock
which has existed in international
negotiations for eight years-ap-
peared to be so far from solution
today that it would close that av-
enue for a t1ve-power naval agree
ment.
The French, however, expressed
hope that the negotiations would be
pursued along a different course.
The experts will discuss other
formulas for agreement and, upon
the invitation of Foreign Secretary
Arthur Henderson, the French for
eign minister, Aristide BRAND, and
the French expert. Rene Massigh,
had luncheon with him at Claridges
and continued the discussions.
