But they snap gnd flash fire and appear dark as he plunges headlong into his subject; they are touched again with softness as his voice pleads for France. In introducing the subject of land armaments, Secretary Hug’ said there was no problem there for the United States, whose traflitional policy was to maintain a small army. Secre tary Hughes said he took pleasure to state that “gratifying progress had been made during the first week of the conferenc “The United States fully recognizes, however, the apprehensions and 4if- floulties of foreign powers regarding land armament,” he said. “The pro- ‘posals of the American government regarding the limitation of naval arm: ment,” sald Secretary Hughes, “have been under considera: the com- mittee of the plentpo' Gelegates and, aided by a sub-committee, the matter is progressing favorably.” “I think I am justified in saying.” Secretary Hughes continued, speaking with reference to the Far, Easjern questions, “that our expectations with Teference to the expedition and the consideration of these questions have been more than realized.” Premier Briand, rising to pres the views of France, began by sa: t all measures possible to assure @ last- ing peace. France could not put down her arms under present-clroumstances, de: clared Premier Briand, because of con- ditions closely touching the national integrity. He said that because of conditions of instability, France must measure them with reference to the ccnsequences to her own security. Critics had said, the Premier continued, that Franco sought military ascendency in Europe but he asserted the imputation was only ® cruel reproach, especially com: ing: after her record in the war.
