BY FREDERIC WILLIAM WILE, Staft Correspondent of The Star. By Radio to The Star. LONDON, England, March 13— George Washington’s immortal doctrine of mo entangling alliances became the at the Naval Conference todsy. It is resounding throughout London as & result of the American delegation's unequivocal statement that the United States will under no circumstances be- come a party to any kind of security pact in France's favor, consultative or | otherwise. Announcement to that effect on Stim- son’s sutherity formally supplements the declaration of Great Britain's pur- pose by Mr. Maedonald-in his broad- cast to America March 9. France is now fully and finally aware that there ean be 1o five-power pact including security guarantee provisions. Speculation Is Keen. Speculation is as keen over the real mo- tive behind the afirmation of America’s attitude as it is regarding the effect on the Fremch. The Hoover administra- tlon's wholesome respect for the Senate 1s the most popular explanation. As recently as a fortnight ago tn- s were forthcoming from o responsible delegation quarters that , in accord with Hoover, was more than open-minded on the subject of at least a consultative pact. ‘The United States, it is now ex- ed, is not opposed to consultation an international crisis as long as 16 is definitely understood that it shall be_consultation and nothing else. But when the consultative pact is sought as Prance is now seeking it the matter assumes, in American eyes, an entirely different aspect. 1914 Position Is Recalled. An slmost identical position arose in 1914, when on the eve of the World War, France clamored for aid from the British navy to pretect her channel coast because a couple of years before the French fleet was removed from the Becretary Stimson and his colleagues are bombarded with cablegrams and from home clon d.l‘;mt fi;‘ e t just ove the hilltop above acg.nrnlfi‘u:’. o the first time in all the day, the sun- light came beaming down, Full uj the tent sbove the i 1583 » 23 letters them not to leave London without a satisfactory tre .
