GENEVA. Oct. 4 GN.SD.-
A five-pOwer parley designed
TO persuade Germany 10 reiOin
the DISARMAMENT Conference
here lOomed AS a distinct pos
SibilIty today in the weller of
Europe international rela-
tiOns.
Most active supporters Of the
proposal are Norman H. Davis
and Sir John Simon. British for
eign minister. They were re-
ported to have half convinced
Premier Herriot of France that
such a conference. held in Lon.
don. would solve the present arms
impasse
Diplomats Worried
1t was apparent that continued
noparticipation of the Reich in
the conference was causing diplo
mats of the major powers great
concern. Germany has empha
sized she will not participate un.
less her arms parity demands are
granted.
France, it was understood. favors
the idea of such a parley if indi-
cations point to success. But
Herriot pointed out that the pres
ent situation would become ag-
gravated if the United States
and Great Britain, using their
debt efforts, failed to find
means of Sa atisfying Germany.
Americans Dig In"
Sir John Simon just discussed
the proposal with Norman Davis,
American disarmament expert.
and then left for Paris to confer
with Premier HerriOt.
Meanwhile. the American dele
cation dug in for a siege to put
over Presidents Hoover's plan for
reduction of military effectiVeS,
which appears to have a better
chance for success now that it is
in the hands of political rather
than technical experts, although
its discussion remains highly
technical.
BERLIN Oct. 4 IN.SD Only
if she is assured Of a polite re-
Ception will Germany participate
in the proposed disarmament
meeting in London, it was Off
cially announced today.
Germany, it was said, will de-
mand that the general atmos,
phere of the conference differ
in every respect from the recent
British memorandum, severely
criticizing this country for her
arms equality demand.
