DISARMAMENT
PLEA FOR EARLY DISCUSSIONS
THE BRITISH PROGRAMME.
(British Officiil Wireless.)
RUGBY, February 10
An urgent plea ,for discussions by the Disarmament. Conference, at Geneva by Captain- Eaen, pi-oduc-ed a sympathetic response. Captain Eden emphasised that the programme of work .submitted by the United Kingdom delegation was ui n° sense a new statement' of policy, but designed solely to facilitate- and ac. celerat© procedure. There were already sufficient' plans before the conference, and most of these had already been adequately examined from the technical viewpoint to enable th e conference .now to proceed to decisions. The British programme of work took account of those who insisted upon connection between security and disarmament, and incited discussion on the security position, while at the same time providing for discussion of other proposals made to’ the conference. The time has pow com© for the Governments to fdiouCer responsibilities and facing realities, weigh the risks against the incomparably greater danger of allowing the conference to fad.
