Premier Seeks Pledge of Aid to France in Far East Talks
The Associated Press reports slow progress as army delegates shift from broad policy to specifics. China’s economic woes prompt a nine-nation subcommittee on Chinese autonomy, tariff and tax rules. Briand aims for a formal French position on armament cuts, with emphasis on preserving France’s large army. Secretary Hughes and the American delegation push subcommittees on naval and land armament, the submarine issue, and new weapons. The Root resolution is key, seen as strengthening China protection and guiding plenary discussions on Pacific questions.
