MERRY T' COOLAIA G S AVAL PROPOSAL ''iPough the favorable replies of ta id stat an to the President'; p lanc-i radditional naval disarmiameni plan in any resulting conference, the mnas~ opposition to the proposal seen to lie in the predicted refusal of France to join anly disarmameont con- ference not the various sub-committees. Mor-e- over, in considering the naval ques-- tion, .the League consideration would necessarily be separate because onl~v the five nations involved in the Presi- dent's proposal have navies worthy of mention. The proposed discussion would not be independent of Or1 League's work, and the regular Am r- ican delegates now attending the see- sions of the preparatory disarmamnii commission would continue their at- tendance. Ample proof for the value of such a conference, even if the delegates, differed widely at the beginning, ha'; already been demonstrated at Geneva. The American proposal for disarina- ment in all it phases, which was prac- tically isolated last May, has no ,- been voluntarily accepted by morne than half of the other delegates. It is to be hoped, of course, that the President's proposal will be ac- cepted and will be productive of re- -~suits for world peace. If rejected., however, it can hardly be fruitless since it should focus the wor-ld's at- tention more fully upon such prob- lems and lend moral support to the efforts of the League's comnmission.
