ARMS PROPOSALS | . UPHELD BY BORAH Senator Belicves Both Ger- many and Russia Want Re- : lief From Creat Burdens. Disarmament s must be treated with respect whatever source they come, in the opinion of Chairman Borah of the Senate foreign relations committee, who expressed be- | Jief in the good faith of the Russian | disarmament move. 1] Lurope, he insisted, is more heavily armed today than at the beginning of | the World War, and he warned that | unless relief was afforded from the | military burdens economic ruin must ensue. “While we have been talking dis armament,” he declared. “arming has | gone forward. There can be no such thing as recovery in Europe with this ever-increasing_burden of armaments | resting upon the people. “Taxes in Europe are literally like cancer, eating away the stamina of European people. This loitering. hesi- tating, cheese-paring effort at disarma- | ment heretofore will re get where. “I do not think the proposal of Ru sia is in bad faith. I do not thin many's manifested desire for disarm: ment is in bad faith. I have no idea that either Russia of Gepmany expects complets disarhament, ‘and 1 have an idea that while radical proposals have been made, much less radical proposals | will be accepted. But I think both the | Russian and German leaders would like to see pronounced steps toward disarmament.” ¢ { Senator Fravier, Republican, North| Dakota, announéed vesterday that he | would ‘reintroduce his constitutional | amendment proposal to prohibjt war | hy the United States for any purpose. | The plan, which failed of epactment proposal from ny Upper: Visitors lined-up outdide bf THE FEVENING' §TAR.

Franco-Jugoslavian treaty of amity and arbitration, rati- fied shortly before. M. Paul-Boncour asserted that all| regional pacts must be co-ordinated | and brought within the scope of the | League of Nations and that efforts| must centralize in building up a gen- | eral agreement for security which would prevent misunderstandings. | Russia, represented by an observer, and not participating in the security committee meetings, nevertheless contributed an admonition that the | frenzied piling up of armaments am- v justifies the fear of another gigan- tic war. The admonition was con fained in a supplementary communi- | cation which Maxim Litvinoff. head of | the Soviet delegation. deposited with | the preparatory disarmament commis: | sion. Litvinoft did not spare Americans | in his general condemnation of what he termed a dangerous state of affairs, especially mentioning the advocacy By some Americans of the use of poison gas.
