Washington, Jan. 2.-—(By Associat- ed Press.)—Naval experts of the arms conference kept at work today on their tasks of ironing out details of the naval limitation plan which it is hoped to put into final treaty form by the end of the week. With no ser- ious difficulty expected in formulating | the necessary adjustments to cover | such questions as replacement and scrapping of ships, there was a feel- ing today that the end of the week might see an announcement from the plenary session of these con- | ferences of a formal five power treaty | covering the naval limitation scheme.

The I'ar Eastern representa- tives themselves not only are mem- bers of the conference but are speak- ing for an unrecognized government which left it entirely uncertain as to what cognizance may be taken of the charges.
