ARMS PARLEY SNAG 1S MET IN FIGHT ON CUSTONS UNIN Project Is Seen as Reply to Alleged Four-Power Deal Isolating Germany. BRITISH OFFER TO GIVE U.S.LEADERSHIP DECLINED Present Situation Held Discqurur‘ ing, but Lot of Time Remains i for Compromises. BY PAUL SCOTT MOWRER. By Cable to The Star. PARIS, France, April 11.—The Austro- German customs union project has ap- parently already had a marked effect on the political and technical prepara- tions which were. beginning for the great gencral disarmament conference scheduled for next February. | It is sald in some quarters that this is precisely what Germany sought. In| connection with the Franco-Italian | naval negotiations, the Germans be- lieved they observed something like an agreement among Great Britain, France, Italy and the United States isolating | Germany. It was even rumored that! Great Britain, the United States and | Italy were pledged in advance to sup- | port the French claim to a large army with trained reserves. | The Austro-German customs unlon{ project, sericusly negotiated and sprung | as a surprise, is thought to have been Germany's retort to these alleged ma- neuvers. If so, that Germany won an initial success is certain. | France Now Seems Isolated. The French promptly assumed the | lead in the opposition to the Austrc- | German project. French opinion hard- | ened and a serious hitch over Prench replacements blocked the British- | French-Italian naval settlements. This | in turn has led to & renewea strain in | France's relations with Great Britain | and Italy, so that at the present mc- | ment it is France rather than Germany | which appears somewhat isolated. | However, the diplomatic struggle over | both the customs union project and the disarmament conference is still just be- gioning. There is plenty of time for ccmpromises, but for the moment a | ing over oificial circles in which only recently | there was so much optimism. | It has been learned that Great Brit- | ain sounded the United States some | weeks ago with a view to offering the United States the leadership in the preparaticn for the disarmament con- | ference, and even the there- | of. One idea mooted was that a mixed | commission headed an American should visit the principal countries dur- ing the next few months to try to lay | the bases of agreement. [ Tentative Offers Declined. | Washington, nowever, declined these tentative offers, it is :aid, and Great Britain thereupon resolved to take the initiative. Arthur Ho2nderson, British fcreign minister, undoubtedly is willing to accept the pres‘dencs of the con- ference, which the British hope will be held in London. The Frenth candidate for the presi- | dency is Dr. Eduard Bemes, foreign | minister of Czechoslovakia. Germany and Italy, sfter first scemingly favor- ing a president from a neutral country, like Holland or Sweden. are now be- lieved to be supporting Mr. Henderscn. It is possible that the French hes tions on this score wili be overcome, but it is unlizely that the conference | be held in London.
