BRITISH NEWSPAPRS
FAUR 12 MILE LIMIT
Washington, D. C.. Oct. 8.-(By
A.P.)-Expression in British newspa-
pers recently favorable to the ac-
ceptance by Great Britain of thee121
mile limit treaty plan, proposed by
Secretary Hughes to curb liquor
smuggling into the United States has
caught the attention of officials here.
Nhile hope is entertained that delib-
erations. of the British Imperial con-
ference will result in mhe decision to
comply with Secretary Hughs' re-
quest, It was said today that no auth-
oritative indication had been repeived
that such action would be taken.
Additional data Js supporting the
American treaty plans for dealing
with rum smuggling, and the incon-
veniences occasioned British ships.
Great Britain stated that the for-
eign office was not favorably inclined
toward the 12 mile limit and searb
and seizure proposal. The specified
objections made are not considered
as inseparable from the Washington
viewpoint. In the communication to
the foreign office made by Mr. Harvey,
therefore, it is understood that the
American proposition was explained
at greater length.
