NOT YET IN FORCE
PROPOSED ARMS EMBARGO BRITISH MINISTER EXPLAINS (British Official Wireless.) Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. HUGBY, June 19. (Received June 20, at noon.) Captain Eden, answering questions in tho House of Commons in regard to the proposed agreement for a general embargo on the export of arms to Bolivia and Paraguay, said the Governments of thirty-four countries had announced that in principle they were prepared to agree to tho imposition of this embargo. The Italian Government had, however, made its agreement conditional on agreement by the Japanese Government. The latter had not yet given a formal agreement, though it had explained that no export of arms had in fact been sent from Japan to Bolivia or Paraguay. The forpial coming into force of the embargo was accordingly for the moment delayed. The British Government was continuing to hold up the issuing of licenses for the export of arms to the two belligerents, but it was not prepared to give an undertaking that this unilateral action would be pursued indefinitely, and in all circumstances.
