France proposes twenty year disarmament plan at Geneva
France unveils a two stage twenty year disarmament scheme tied to Hoover plan talks. The first conference would set a gradual Geneva disarmament path over two years, dividing armed forces into police and defense sections with reduction over twenty years. The European conference would pursue wider Locarno style steps and international parks for heavy arms to balance security and disarmament. France argues the plan could yield German arm equality while protecting all nations from aggression.
