By the Associated Press, The French memorandum to the League of Nations claiming Prance can- not “disarm further under existing political conditions in Europe today cast | a shadow over the elation President Hoover manifested over the success of his recent diplomatic moves to aid Ger- many. With the Seven-Power Conference in London ended with a marked degree of success, American authorities turned their atténtion to the French document for the first time. Though comment was withheld, they did not disguise their disappointment at the tone of the memorandum. The French attitude was interpreted as a definite setback to plans for the Disarmament Conference at Geneva next February, the success of which President Hoover hoped would result from_economic rehabilitation of Europe. France Big Question. In snnouncing his plans for a holi- day on intergovernmental debts in June, the Chief Executive expressed the | hope it would not only contribute to the | econonilc récovery of Europe, but would | so mprove international good will that | it would pave the way for a successful Dissrmament Conference st Geneva, | Since the World War France has been the big question mark in all disarma- ment discussions.

Neither Great Eritain nor the United States is ex- pected to nccede to the French demand. However, in Government circles a hope persists that the French memo- randuin was advanced for trading pur- poses, or to bolster that nation’s gov- ernment politically at home, and that the note did not express her final word on_the matter, Washington officials were hoping that the European trip of Secretary of State | Stimson would go far toward smoothing the path for the Geneva Conference. Secretary Stimson was to leave Lon- don today for Germany presumably for & first-hand study of that nation’s eco- nomic situstion and discussion with statesmen. It is possible that he will return to Paris for conference with the French on the disarmament conference of which Germany has been an inter- ested proponent. Taid Sound Foundation. Despite the French attitude on the | arms parley, administration officials | from President Hoover on down con- | sidered the successful London minis- | ters' conference on the German prob- | lem and the adoption of the Hoover debt suspension plan as important factors in the recovery of Germany's economic stability and big contributions toward recovery from the world-wide depression. | President Hoover said the conference | had laid & sound foundation for the es- mb]ishmen( of stability in Germany, the major banking and credit probles of which had been solved through surances of co-operative banking action.
