NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, P RIDAY, MARCH 28, 1930. France Lured Back to Conference; Americans and B To Italy In Effort to Interest Her| Mussolini’s Delegates Are| Standing Pat On Claim for Parity With Any Power—Situation Looks More Promising, How- ever. 28 (1) France back five-power parley, the American and British delegations today turned their attention par- ticularly to Ttaly, with the hope of securing some sort of compromise from the representatives of the Mus- solini government. Meanwhile, both among the dele- zations and conference observers the offer of “security” which will be made France as price of reduction of her naval figures, and the consulta- | tive pact into which the Americans| may be drawn continued the princi- pal topic of conversation. Italy Stands By Claims But while the situation with ref- crence to France apparently has been greatly eased and now gives promise of possible tangible devel- opment in the direction of a naval cement, Italy has stood her gu nd reiterated her original conten- tion, “parity with any contincntal power.” | France as consistently is maintain- ing, even though this phase of th naval argument is out of the lime- light, that ghe cannot Accept parity | with Italy, and that the Rome gov- | ernment is contending for the right | to build up to France's total with no | intention or capacity to do so. The principal idea of the British and Americans now is to get the I'rench and Italians face to face in | the same room fo discuss their dif- | ferences. Thus far efforts to achieve that meeting have proven fruitless. | The British and Americans aye| working on the basis that obviously no agreement is possible unless the parties concerned are willing to dis cuss matters. To Wait on Sidelincs If the French and Ttalians can be brought together for conversations the Americans and British can sit on the sidelines and try to help the contestants over any hard jumps with friendly advice, Ambassador Gibson talked last night with Dino Grandi, Italian for- cign minister and head of his gov- rnment’s delegation here, while | Sceretary Stimson, Ambassador Gib- son and Prime Minister MacDonald get together this morning at ten Downing street to discuss the situa- London, March succeeded into the Having in drawing British Restate Position London, March 2§ (P —Re-state- ment by Great Britain of her obli- | gations under the covenant of t League of Nations were expected to- | ‘ to e the bid which will be| made to France in payment for sui-! ficient reduction of nee's naval | huilding program to permit the®con- clusion of a naval limitation treaty | lere, The part the United States is to| play in this trade is not quite clear. It was suggested that Great Britain, ured by American adherence to a consultative pact that Washing- ton's views in any crisis will alwa; be available, would feel reasonably | able to streng’™en somewhat Brit- obligations as a member of the | gue of Nations. The French believe, it was stated, that the actual sccurity they desire can be attained by a more definite statement in treaty form of arti- 16 of the covenant of the League of Nations, They argue that the British already are committed to this article and would go no deep- er by haping it into a clause of a Mediterranean pact. Toresces Events Article 16 foresees gvents leading to a crisis and subsequent course of | action somewhat indefinitely, and in the viewpoint of some critics of the league leaves loop-holes which the Irench see as endangering their se- curity. 1t is the French idea to| make the covenant article definite | and obligatory as far as Mediterr: n affairs are concerned, thus per- tting them to reduce their naval tonnage claims. H 1t was said there was some diver- | zence in the viewpoints of the| \merican delegates as to how close- | Iy the United States might cooper- ate in this solution of the impassc to which the five power naval con- ference undoubtedly had come, The ['nited States is not a League mem- ber and presumedly has only a friendly benegeent interest in the Mediterrancan, | One so-called committee of {he American delegation, composed of | Senator Robinson, Amb Morrow, and Ambassador completed a definite plan for A an participation in a consultative | pact, which would bind the United | States to consult with other signa- tories in the event of a threat of This plan will be one of sev- | 1 suggestions put before the del ation as a whole for consideration | 1y next week. Its nature was not | disclosed. i In reply to various reports in the ! British press about the role the American delegation was taking in the present political discussions, the Americans gave out tho following statement to British newspaper men as an outline of the American posi- tion re ele war, No responsible member of the American delegation has at any time urged or proposed either to the British or the French delegates any suggestions as to the solution of {heir problems at the naval confer- ence. It is thoroughly recognized in the American ° delegation that problems must be solved by dele- gates direetly concerned, and Feither in the past nor in the future | have or will the American delegates attempt to intervene as between | France and Great Britain, “If therefore follows that rr‘nm(i’ regarding the activity of any partic- wlar American interest in the con- ference and its success is vital, and in this period of uncertainty and conjecture one cannot do better | consent. ritish Turn Back | |tracts from the Hoover-MacDonald communique issued on the Rapid “The part of cach of our govern- ments in promotion of world peace will be different, as one Will.never | to become entangled in uropean diplomacy and the other § resolved to pursue a policy of active | cooperation with its Iuropean | neighbors, but each of our govern: ments will direct its thought and in- | fluence toward securing and main- | taining the peace of the world.” W Was today ashington Awaits Word hington waited impatiently plan devised by_American delegates | |to the London naval conference and sought eagerly to measurc the ex- tent of the opposition that might be expected in the senate.
