June 18 (UP)— American proposals for limitation of auxiliary naval ships to be pre- sented to the Geneva tri-power ‘con- ference were completed today. Ambassador Hugh Glbson, head of the American delegation, will out- line the proposals in general form at the opening conference sessions, cither next Mcnday or Tuesday. The United Press understands the tial instructions determining Ameri- can policy toward anticipated Brit- sh and Japanese moves recommend: 1—Establishment of a 5-5-3 ratio for auxiliary craft for the United Statcs, Great Britain and Japan, similar to the Washington confer- ence ratio on capital ships, opposi- tion to Japan’s desire for a larger ratio for herself. 2—Retention of the 10,000 figure as maximum tonnage for cruisers opposing a possible British-Japanese move for 6,000 or 8,000 maximum tonnage. 3—Retention of $-inch guns for cruisers, opposing possible British policy a 6-gun limit which & sutabl, r uvse on merchant ships and th@s favorable to nations with large merchant marines capable of wartime conversion. 4—Acceptance, {f necessary, of an American equality cruiser ratio based on Britain's present superior | tonnage and necessitating an Ameri- {can building program, rather than | insistance on reduction of British | strength to equal the present Ameri- | can cruiser tonnage. | 5—Opposition to any effort to re- duce tonnage figures of capital | ships or redefine capital ships al- | ready fixed by the five-power Wash- ington treaty. 6—Blocking of a possible Japan- ese move to discuss Paclific fortifi- cations. 7-—Refusal to discuss the Panama Canal or so-called freedom of inter- national waterways. The American policy outlined is understood to be equally acceptable to the administration’s diplomatic and naval advisers, and is there- fore not expected to incur naval displeasure here as did features of the Washington treaty.

He announced that he would lay definite proposals before the meet- ing and hoped the discussion would make it easier for nations not par- ticipating in the conferance to ad- here later to any principles ‘agreed upon.

June 18 (UP)—The Chaplin divorce bill will be settled out of court “on one and only one condition,” Nathan Burkan, counsel for the comedian, told the United Press today.

Chaplin made her charges to justify a report that the case would be settled out of court. “The charges were false. She can admit they were by withdrawing them or we shall prove it to the world in open court. “I hope I had made myself clear on the point that there is absolute- ly no foundation to any report about a settlement of suit out of court.” B. and O.
