DISARMAMENT PARLEY.
SESSION AT GENEVA, METHODS OF LIMITATION. (OKITID PBKSS ISSOCIATIOW —EI eL*o**M TJI.EOBAJPH—COPTEIGHT.) GENEVA, November 11. The Preparatory Disarmament Commission considered direct limitation by requiring countries to furnish lists of the weapons and ammunition available, and limitation by publicity.
Signor de Marini (Italy) thought that the British supervisory scheme removed the objection to direct limitation. Lord Cecil, who was wearing a Flanders poppy, favoured publicity, but he did not regard it as a method of limitation. Delimitation of effectives and material must supplement it. Direct limitation was only for large calibre arms. Limitation of military expenditure was preferable, though difficult for the United States. He hoped that a compromise could be discovered. Mr Gibson said tiiat America adhered to the direct method and would apply it if the others provided an efficacious system of limitation by expenditure. Count Bernstorff said that Germany considered direct limitation essential.
