Ir. Stauning can rely on 77 voles out of 149 membora of the Folketing-Reuter.
The recent elections to the Folketing resulted in an increased Socialist representation.]
The Chairman anked the Chinese delegation not to press the matter and to leave the Bureau to deal with the form in which the pro- posal should be embodied. The Chinese delegate agreed to await the decision of the Bureau, but served the right to return to the subject later, after referente to his Government.
Doctor Riddell (Canada) sym. pathised with the Chinese pro posal, and associated himself with the 'view expressed.
Great Britain, the United States, Sweden, Holland and Count Bern storff (Germany) favoured the abolition of compulsory military service.
M. Litvinoff (Russia) said he did not oppose the Chinese proposal in principle.
Limitation Question,
The Committee entered Into an examination of Article Eight of the draft convention providing for limitation of effectives."
A proposal by M. Litvinoff to substitute "reduction" for "limita- tion" was dropped after a speech by, Lord Cushendus pointing out that the question of limitation and reduction WAR nlready settled, and the British innd forces were already reduced to the limit pro- vided in the article.
Count. Bernstorff in the courac of the discussion suid they were, not asking the Powers which had already disarmed to disarm. He hoped in future the conference would not degenerate into a con- ference of mutuni protection against disarmament (laughter).
A German proposal to amend Article Eight of the draft conven- tion so as to Include limitation of trained reserves was rejected, only the German, Chinese and Soviet delegations voting for it.—Reuter.
