DISARMING SEEN BY VISCOUNT CECIL Many Obstacles, However, Cited by Great Britain’s Representative. B the Arsociated Press | GENEVA, December 12.—Viscount | Cecil of Chelwood, Great Britain's | representative on the League of Na- | tlons disarmament council, gave an interview to the Associated Press, | summarizing in striking fashion the | pitfalls to he encountered on the road | to a solution of the disarmament | problem and of the forces which justl- | fv a hope that after all this great| issue will be grappled with succauv‘r fully. i To estimate the prospects of dis- armament, Lord Cecil said, would he 2 vash attempt at prohpecy, but he expressed the belief that some obser- Vations might be made concerning | the forces whigh seem likely to retard o= accelerate the movement. ‘Undoubtedly the chief obstacle to| digarmament,” he said, “is the want | of security, due to historic suspiciena and jealousies of nations and the consequent chauvinistic forms of na- tionalism. Perhaps the chief merit | of our recent a ements has been e dimunition they have brought | fmo] some of the most important of European nations of this attitude | of suspicion. A cursory reading of The pr of me of the nations in. | volved would indicate that this| amelioration does extend to all mocti of the populations. Still, a | great step forward has been made ! League Aids Security. “Again, the growing strength and prestige of the League of Nations| s an important element toward secu- | Tity. The smoothness and rapldity | with which the Greco-Bulgarian dis- | pute was adjusted, and, still more, the emphatic declarations of members of | the council at Paris that a resort to | violence as a ans of settling inter- Jnal disputes is no longer to be ated amdnz members of the 1e, show i growth of ernationa The more nations become in the of referring d es to pacifi settlement the less will regard one another as potential enemies. When asked to define the domestic difficulties in the way of disarmament, Tord Cecil declared that next to inter- | national suspicion as an obstacle to| sarmament he would put internal | friction of the various government | nachines. He said the idea of dis-| armament is necessarily strange and inattractive to military and civil func- | ries whe have. traditions of their 1 older than international relations. ! They still think it more important to keep their powder dry than to trust to God,” Lord Cecil saigd. Difficult to Estimate Arms. le then emphasized the immense | practical difficulties in the way of land @nd air gisarmament, and expiained that the technical problems of naval | Aisarmament were comparatively sim- ple, those of-army matters being much mplicated. Mere numbers, he | . furnished no criterion of the | strength of land force: “Even assuming that all nationali- ties were equally brave—a very large assumption—it remains true that in & | modern armny-guns, rifles, tanks and Lombs are of greater importance in estimating strength than the number 7 soldiers,” Lord Cecil continued, Yet to draw up @ list of weapons of war is almost impractical, and such lists would require constant revision. Aloreover, who shall compare one kind of weapon with another” Who shall | iy how many rifles are equal to a tank? Who shall make any scale of | +hat kind?” Turning hat o he question of air arm- aments, Lord Cecil said the prob- lem there was further complicated by the fact that civil aircraft can be utilized for military purposes with scarcely any alteration, vet most in- quirers have arrived at the con- clusion that to attempt to limit| civilian aviation was impracticable.

I remember his going over the part referring to plane reconnizance, and his plan 'opposed duplicating activities of the Navy., I cited a pamphlet on joint Army and Navy actlon in coast defense and pointed out the Navy's duty, and he replied to the effect the Navy was no good and it wouldn't do it In time of need, and we would have to do it anyway.” Maj. McNair said there was no es- sential point {n the report which could be accepted that was not already in contemplation or fully recognized in the plans for defense of the island. Denles Airways Charge. Another charge by Col. Mitchell that there were no ‘alrwdys between the islands in 1923 was answered by Maj. McNair, who sald that a system was in process of development at that time. Col. Mitchell's reference to the fact that flights could be made every day in the year was challenged by the witness, who declared “if he had seen some of the storms we have he would have qualified that state- ment. While he was there elaborate arrangements were made for him to fly to the Island of Hawail. When the .time came to go he did not fly for some reason and the plane was taken to Hawaii by boat. It was used bv him there and returned by boat.” The witness explained the plans for the island constantly are belng re-| vised and rewritten, and at the time of Col. Mitchell's visit they were un- dergoing a change in accordance with instructions from the War Depart ment. Maj. McNalir added the accused did not see the plans, explaining if he had he would have been aware of Documents Offered. Up-to-date basic projects for the defense of Oahu, approved by the War Department in August, 1924, were offered in evidence. These and fense question were held strictly con- fidential and no inkling of their con- tents was_given the court. Repre- sentative Frank R. Reld, chief defense counsel, objected to their admission on the ground they were made after Mitchell's visit. Maj. Wilby re- plied they were in answer to the charge of ‘“almost treasonable ad- ministration” by the War Depart.| ment. Mr. Reid then said: “Upon that | understanding we will be very glad to have them in.” Maj. McNair was preceded on the stand by Maj. Gen. O. C. Willlams chief of ordnance, who clarified the charge of the defense that mo heavy bombing practice has been carried on for the past two vears. Gen. Wil- liams said the reason for this was expense and shortage of the ammu- nition. It finally was agreed to use smaller bombs for target practice The 2,000-pound bombs and the type in his opinion, was “a good means of protection against aircraft, applica- ble only to bombing planes.’ Admits Statement. He admitted authorship of the state- ment made during the first battle- ship bombing tests that “'the bomb | that sank the Ostsfriesland will be | heard around the world. Capt. John T. Lewis of Fort Tot- ten, N. Y., who commanded the search light batteries in the 9th Alrcraft| tests at Camp Dix, N. J., last Summer, | testified today {n direct contradittion to contentions of the defense that air- planes were able to glide into a re- stricted area at the camp without be- ing detected by searchlights. Capt. Lewis declared that not one plane got into the area set aside for the tests without first being detected by the searchlights. The object of the tests, he said, was to have the planes locate this area and drop bombe in the form of flares without being detected either by the lights or by listening devices. De- fense witnesses had testified the big bombers shut off thelr motors, glided into the area unseen and un- heard and dropped their flares. Capt. Lewis declared not one flare was dropped in the defended area be- fore the planes were picked -up by the beaums. Those bombs or flares | that were dropped. he declared, were | out of the defended area and meant | nothing. | Two reports had been submitted ou | these tests, one from an Air Service ohserver and the other from the senior umpire. The witness thought the wide discrepancy was due to the fact that when the pilot saw a light on the ground he immedlately released his flare.-while those on the ground gave credit to the searchlight for picking up.the plane as soon as it got into the defended area. He emphasized| that all the flares were dropped out | of the area in question. Trial End Seen Soon. The trial will close by the end of next week, it was confidently predict- ed today by both the prosecution and the defense. Gnly four or five more witnesses re- | wain to be called by the prosecution in rebuttal, and, although the accused | has been given the privilege by the court of having a final answer in the | form of witnesses, not more than one | will be called. The defense feels that all the witnesses who have ap-| peared from the War and Navy De- partments for the prosecution, the testimony of one alone needs answer- ing. This is understood to be that of Capt. Howard G. Rath, Alr Service Reserve, of Los Angeles, Calif., who charged Col. Mitchell, while chief of Air Service of the Ist Army, ordered planes to fly in such severe weather that loss of life and equipment re. sulted Summerall to Testify. Of the half dozen witnesses vet to be called, Maj. Gen. Charles P. Sum-| merall, commanding the 2d Corps Area at Governor’s Island, N. 1., stands foremost. Gen. Summerall his right to eit in judgment of Col. AMitchell was challenged and he was | relieved. The basis of the defense | challenge was that while in command | of the Hawaiian department Gen.| | Summerall made no effort to bring| the Air Service there into a condition for challenge much il feeling has sprung up between tic general and Col. Mitchell. Another important witness for tha prosecution will be Maj. Gen. Dennis B. Nolan. deputy chief of staff. Testimony to End Wednesday. The prosecution and defense wit- nesses undoubtedly will be disposed of by Wednesday. and only two more formal steps remain to be taken be-, fore the court closes for findings. The court has a right itself to. call additional witnesses when' the prose- cution stops. presentation of evidence, | but It is not expected after almost | seven weeks' hearing that, this will be done. Some tims may be required for a decislon regarding the use the ourt is to make of the evidence re- ived, whether it will be ‘considered 1 extenuation or mitigation, as the yrosecution contends it should be, or 4 support of the truth of Col. Mitch- s charges, which bis counsel in iete defense of the arc- nents on this guestion \owever. are to be brief and will be ollowed only by the concluding state ments of the opposing couusel before ‘e court closes for. decision on the | accused’s guilt or innocence.

APARIS, December 12.—Georges Clemenceau, by allowing the publica- tlori {xi“sérial form, in L'INustration, of his literary-historical work on Demosthenes, the great orator of an- clent Athens, has broken the rule which “he set for himself when he abandoned the editorial pen of his newspaper, L'Homme Enchaine, in 1917, to become France's war pre- mier. He asserted then that he would never write anvthing which would be published during his lifetime. The “Tiger” has assured his inti- mates that no personal parallel is jmeant between himself and Demos- thenes, but his friends point out that D. 0., BATURDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1925. on Demosthenes Starts Friends Pointing Comparisons an allegory can readily be traced in comparison of the days when Athens lived under the threat of Philip of Macedonia and the days when France vas called on to meet the German on- slaught. Demosthenes saved Athens from the invader, experienced a pe- riod of glory, and then’knew the in grafitude of ‘men, and died in exile. No great effort of the imagination Is required to substitute Germans for Macedonians and Clemenceau for Demosthenes.

Therefore, the French government desires to secure the co-operation of the German gov- ernment in its scheme, both with a view of reassuring the American mar- ket and convincing other creditors on the reparations commission of the utllity of immediate .action. Officially the German government has nothing to do with the bonds. Practically, the French proposal would, if supported by Germany, show world that the Locarno spirit is still living.
