CHEST TO FINANCE
RELIEF WORK HERE
Burden Will Be Assumed
After City's Funds Are
Exhausted.

The Community Chest has agreed to
assume the burden of unemployment re-
lief work in the District when the city's
funds. appropriated by Congress for this
work, are exhausted the latter part Of
November.
The Chest yesterday decided to appro-
pirate Sl000 900 Of the funds collected in
the annual campaign next month to
finance the District relief program dur
ing the gap between the time the city's
funds are exhausted and the time when
Congress is expected to advance further
funds for relief.
The money was promised by the trus-
tees of the Chest late yesterday follow
ing a conference between the Executive
Committee of the Chest and District
Commissioner Luther H Reichelderfer,
District Auditor Daniel J. Donovan and
Director Of Public Welfare George S.
Wilson. when the city's plight. with
rapidly diminishing relief funds, was
placed before the Chest officials.
The District officials told the Execu-
tive Committee of the Chest that unless
uIleLiUIOylIlellI TtIlSl lot llle next lew
week was spread out so thin it would be
practically useless, there would be no
funds to carry on the work after the
middle of November.
Campaign Goal Unchanged.
Elwood Street. director of the Chest,
told the trustees there would be no
change in the Chests campaign goal,
set yesterday at s2,419,787, because
S250,000 was allocated to unemploy-
ment relief by the Chest last year, a
condition which is not expected to pre-
vail this year, and the District, with a
congressional appropriation. is expected
to take over the work when the Chest
has tided it over the lean period
Donovan explained to the Chest Off
cials that it is expected an appropri-
alton for unemployment relief will be
obtained through Congress early in the
session which begins in December. and
thus relieve the Chest of this work.

Drafts Comprehensive Pro-

BASIC DISAGREEMENTS
WITH U. S. SUSPECTED
Nippon Scheme, However, Will Not
Accept or Reject Hoover or
Baldwin Suggestions.
Ccopyrieht by the Associated press1


TOXIC, October 25-Japan has de-
cided to propose her cwn comprehensive
scheme for reduction Of naval arma-
ments to the Disarmament Conference
ciated Press today
The japanese plan, it was understood,
will neither accept nor reject the Amer
ican and British schemes for cuts in
naval strength, but will offer a dis
tirctly Japanese suggestion.
The details of the plan, even an idea
of its general character, are being held
in the closest secrecy for the time being.
The Associated Press was informed,
however. that the scheme embraces all
the naval categories. and will be COM
plete enough to stand alongside the
Hoover and Baldwin proposals
L. S. and British Plans.
President Hoover has suggested a
nearly one-thlrd general cut in arma-
ments. This envisaged reduction by
one-third of all battleships-both ton
mage and number-under the Anglo
American japanese naval treaty; reduce
tions in treaty tonnage OF aircraft car
riers, cruisers and destroyers by one
fourth, and submarines by one-third,
with no nation having more than
35. 900 tons of submersibleS.
Great Britains last disarmament
plan involves placing the Washington
and London naval treaties establishing
ratios between Great Britain. the
United States and Japan at approx
mately 10-10-6, respectively, in a
world treaty Great Britain adheres to
the policy of abolition of submarines
and certain methods of warfare, but
is opposed to limitation by reduction Of
specific categories of naval vessels.
The cabinets approval Of the Japa-
nese proposals, which it was under

! drafted was given at session today.
Immediately afte-ward the plan was

It is uncertain whether the plan will

OXFORD, England, October 25.-Sir

to the Dawes Commission, said in
speech here today that the world seems
to be abandoning the postwar idealism
in international relations, and reverting
to the old balance of power system.
There is possibility" he said, that
until the League Of Nations settles the
question of disarmament, which may
not be for a period of years, we shall
be driven to depart frcm the spirit of
the government of the League and to
revert to something like the pre-war de-
fensive alliance system.
Most of u5 believe that there cannot
be security without disarmament, but
there are others, notably France. who
believe that there cannot be disarma-
ment without security-a degree OF
security which does not exist this side
