ARMAMENTS SEEN
EUROPE'S QUESTION
Hoover Says u. S. Has No
Domestic Problem of
Land Forces.

BY the Associated Press.
Indications that the United States
regards the problems of the forth
coming Arms Conference as largely
European today further clarified the
attitude this country is expected to
take at Geneva.
Definite assurance that the Ameri-
can delegates will stand against any
purely budgetary method of limiting
armament was followed by word that
President Hoover feels this country
does not have domestic problem in
land armament
Plans Help for Europe.
Since he expects the Geneva Con-
ference to deal largely with land arma-
ment, he will instruct the American
delegates this afternoon that they
should work largely as contributors to
a solution of European problems.
In this connection the problems of
this country where land forces are con-
cerned are not expected to bulk large
in the parleyS.
Figures available to Mr.. Hoover in
dicate that Germany's army of 100 900
men, considered necessary to insure
domestic order, gives it an armed force
of one soldier to each 500 of popu-
lation.
The figures further indicated that
the American Army, even with its re-
serves, stands at a ratio of one soldier
to each 900 of population.
President Meets Dawes.
The President met with Ambassador
Charles G. Dawes, chairman of the
delegation, early this morning, and soon
after with Norman H. Davis.
Later the delegation, with the excep-
tion of Hugh S. Gibson, now in Europe
opened it's discussions on American
policies for the parley with Secretary
Stimsop.
The delegates present at the first
informal conference were Ambassador
Dawes, Davis, former Undersecretary of
State; Miss Mary Emma Woolley and
Senator Swanson, Democrat, Virginia.
Afterward the group had an engage

Secretary Adams, speaking for him
self and the Navy Department as a
whole, gave his approval today to a
bill calling for a 1O-year naval program
which would bring the Navy up to the
London treaty limitations.
Testifying before the House Naval
Committee, Adams said:
Personally, I think we should build
a navy that meets the requirements
of the London treaty"
He added that the Navy Department
as a whole felt the same way.
Adams said 10-year program was
more acceptable from a practical view
point than 1-year authorization
Explains His Position.
Il think there are advantages in
knowing about where you are going,
the Navy Secretary said.
The Secretary asserted that if the
Budget Bureau approves the Vinson bill
the Navy Department will be favorable
to the program. This bill lays down a
10-year building program.
The House Naval Committee, before
Adams appearance, decided to consider
reports of defects in the Akron, worlds
largest airship.
1t was agreed, however by Represent
ative McClintic, Democrat, Oklahoma,
and Chairman Vinson that the study be
postponed until hearings are completed
on the s616,250,O00 building program
now before the committee.
Britten Joins Debate.
Representative Britten, Republican,
Illinois, last chairman of the committee,
interjected the remark that "the Arkon
was built according to specifications.
However, specifications are one thing
and expectations another" he added.
Admiral William V. Pratt, chief OF
naval operations, then gave unqualified
approval to the Vinson program.
IF 1 may say so, think 1t Is the
sanest bill that was ever presented,
Pratt testified
He said that under this plan we
ultimately will get as good ships for
less money AS by authorizing vessels
from year to year.
Pratt asserted that it was unWiSe to
let the Navy's construction program
fluctuate with business conditions.
Cause of Controversy.
The committee let pass an opportu-
nity to reopen the sensational cOntro-
versy between the White House and the
Navy League.
1t called many witnesses to discuss
the Vinson bill, but despite urging
by some members, the committee chair
man persuaded the group to leave out
william Howard Gardiner, president OF
the league.
GARDENERS charge that President
Hoover was trying to Starve the Navy
and had shown "abysmal ignorance" on
naval matters precipitated a preSiden-
tial demand for an apology last Fall
1t never was rendered.
Vinson convinced the committee an
investigation of that kind would smack
of partisanship and possibly decrease
chances of congressional approval for
the 10-year construction program. The
Democratic chairman held it would be
much easier to show the Navy's needs
by testimony of experts in the Navy De-
partment
The House committee hearings prob
ably will last a week. The Senate
Naval Committee tomorrow will begin
stuoy of the Hale bill, which would
authorize construction Of treaty
