PHILIP SIMMS WASHINGTON, Dec, 22—Plans |for association of nations are ab ready well under way ccording high-placed republican sources here, where it is said that Great Britain, |France and other leading powers have been given to understand that the United Staten does not intend long to stand aloof from participa tion in world affairs While detailx of the new society of nations are still in a formative state and subject to change, | am in & position to give a general outline of the plan now being informally dis cussed inofficial circtes. In the main the idea would be te provide for a number of “growpm,” each more or less independent of the Jothers, but which could bring its lbroader problems to a general, oF world conference, meeting about once a year There would be at least four | “groups,” or minor “leagues.” | 1, Pacific group. 2. Asiatic group. 2, A European group 4. An American group. The Pacific group would incinde the nations which have just signed the four-power treaty here—Amer ica, Britain, France and Japan. The Asiatic group would at first have a membership of nine—Amer- fea, Britain, France, Japan, China, Holland, Italy, Belgium and Portugal —at present attending the Washing+ ton conference. The European group would take in- the Puropean countries now bers of the Wilson League Na tions, while the American group would comprise the nations covered by the Monroe Doctrine. Advocates of this plan claim it would be more practical than the original League of Nations. Each group, they say, could and would settle its own problems with- out need of bringing them before ithe world conference. In this way, {ie is argued, the United States would seldom, if ever, be called upon % | mix in quarrels peculiarly Kuro On the other hand problema general interest could be threshed hill put hie Dia again above—a right purty, blue-eyed, yellow-haired, smilin’ \out at a world conference just am acific problema have been dealt |with at the Pacific conference here, It ts an open secret that Europe greatly desires America to enter rome kind of an association of mar tions and is willing for her to come in on pretty much her own terms. However, having been accused im Furopean countries of ling the Washington conference for the pur pone of breaking up the League of | Nations end substituting therefor | another league more beneficial to the [United “States, President Harding is not expected to take precipitate: action now. Tiather, it is expected he will ge slow and allow the “association” which he favors just to “grow.” * An economic congress may be one — of the next steps taken. Meantime public opinion is expected to the néctssary atmospheric needed to encourage the growth of Harding plan. —— | RULES OF WAR ra ‘WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.—~Revisy ion of international rules of warfare” as they apply to use of submarines ‘was provided in a resolution adopted by a sub-committee of the eg con: ference naval committee, it became known today.
