DELEGATE SPECULATION Senator and Woman Likely to Be Among Representatives of This Country. Unanimous agreement on Armistice day, November 11, for the opening of the disarmament conference, has been ! reached in the informal negotiations among the powers that are to be represented. Japan, the last of the participants to give her consent, ir formed the State Department, through the American embassy at Tokio, that she would “gladly accept” the Amer- ican suggestion to begin the confer- ence on the third anniversary of the cessation of the world war. Thus the assembling of the dele- gates here on a definite day becomes an assured fact, although the diplo- | matic formalities require that there | be now a formal exchange of invi ! and acceptances. The invitations expected to go forward from Wash- ington without delay, and_officials be- licve that prompt replies will hasten the | tiations into their second phase. a iderat the list of subjccts that - to be ssed around the council table. ‘Woman May Be Delegate.
