GREAT DECISIONS WILL BE MADE AT GENEVA
(British Official Wireless)
QUESTIONS TO ANSWER
RUGBY, Wednesday. Mr Arthur Henderson (Britain) stated yesterday that the moment had come when great decisions must and would be mads at Geneva. The London Times points out: "It cannot he too emphaticaliy stated that these decisions can only be taken by the responsible representatives of the leading nations. Experts must do their part, for they have the principal data. The questions they have to answer, however, are really very simple, namely: — Are the other Governments of the world prepared to apply to their own cases, in whole or in part, the limitations of armaments imposed on the vanquished countries after the war? Are they ready to abolish, curtail, or internationalise their own use of weapons which were declared to be of an especially offensive character in 1919 — largest warships, the largest guns, tanks, submarines and aeroplanes ? "In these days of national impoverishment most countries would probably warmly welcome an opportunity to reduce their Budgets by any commonly agreed proportional plan."
