JAPAN'S NAVAL POLICY
WANTS NO DELAY OF CONFERENCE
UNALTERED ATTITUDE
Tokyo.
While the Japanese Government had given no fatimation that the Navy has changed its policies in any respect, there is strong In- dication that the naval conference provided in the Washington treaty la desired.
There is no offelal denial that Japan desires a new treaty to re- place the Washington and London agreements after their expiration at the end of 1936. However the treaty that Japan desires is one without a ratle system.
Meanwhile thore has been no evidence of opposition to the ad- mlaston of Germany and the Soviet Union to the conference if the other signatories to the Washing- ton treaty approve.
Japan, however, does not relish the inclusion of more powers to the conference and those usually well informed say that Great Britain knows this very well.
The Tokya Nichi Nichi is con- sidered to represent fairly the pre- vailing opinion. In regard to the Navy's present attitude, the Nichi Nichi states:
1. The Japanese Navy hopes that the disarmament conference scheduled for this year will be held as soon as possible and will oppose postponement until next year:
2. As to calling a seven-power conference by the addition of Soviet Russia and Germany, if the other signatory powera are will- ing. Japan will not object and will participate upon invitation:
3. If qualitative limitation desired, the Japanese Navy is firm- ly opposed, believing it would merely lead to further competi- tion-United Press.

LEAD
Mr. Clough Williams-Ellis, chair- man of the Council for the Preser- vation of Rural Wales, has offered as "a present from Caernarvonshire to the rest of Wales, and to the rest of the world," some 300 acres of land in the lovely Gwynant valley below Snowdon, as a mucicus for the first British National Park.
Prompted to this generous action by the threat of unregulated deve- lopment along the shores of the lake between Capel Curig and Bedd- gelert, Mr. Williams-Ellis hopes and believes that once a beginning has been made in this work of pro- tecting one of the most beautiful districts in our islands, the neigh bouring landowners will follow suit and do their best to make the pro- posed National Park an example to the rest of the country.
The donor himself is a large landowner in Caernarvonshire and Merioneth, where his people have held their lands since the twelfth century, and his efforts to preserve the beauties of his native Wales are already widely known. Mr. Williams-Ellis rather deprecates the term "National Park" because of the inevitable-and quite mis- its leading comparison with American analogy; he would pre- fer the title "Domais," "or why not." he suggests, "the Free Forest of Snowdon"?
The territory, he points out, would not necessarily be ali "Park," or even entirely open to the public. It would be more of a Post-card size fexcenting in the Children's special reserve where the public is
