In reference to submarines, Bir 8 p.m.-Local time and weather John Simon said: gallantry in this dangerous service | 7.13 to 6.15, p.m.-.

- Britain to-day we mourn the loss of a submarine crew, of sixty mony engulfed in time of peace-we

no justification for ita contina- anec,

"I will not disguise the fact that the abolition of the submarine would be in the interests of our country, but in saying this I absolutely deny that we regard ite abolition as any exclusive interest of ours. The abolition of sub-

marines would be a contrition to disarmament which the ritizema of every country could understand. Our proposal is in the interests of humanity and stable and perman- ent peace." »

Underlying Principle.

Regarding the principle underly ing the proposals, Sir John Bimon said: "Since our common ohjeet 'is to diminish the sum total of armamenta and the, expenditure upon them, it follows that we must 'direct special attention, to such pro- hibition or limitation as will weak- ea attack and so remove the tem ptation for aggression,"

Many peace conferences had been held hefore this and the conse quences of their failure, had been written in blood in the History of the world.

Fallure Means Calamity. "Failure now, would mean "not- hing short of an imancasurable calamity,"

He reminded the Conference that the intention was both explicit and implicit in the Versailles Treaty that nations, who even now, werę, still suffering from the scourge of four years of warfare should reduce the means of conflict through a re. diction of national armaments by international agreement. They mist do this while the lessons of war were still fresh in the peoples minds.

Menza to an End,

Disarmament was a menna to an end Terrible an was the economic burden of armament and commOJA as would be the relief to the tax- payers if it were lifted, that was not the primary purpose for which they pursued it. Disarmament was pursued as the most effective. method of promoting peace and of limiting the risk of sudden and devastating war by a restriction of nenaments to what was, strictly necessary for defeice and for inter national obligations, and by eam.” parison and co-operation among themselves to diecredit extravagant and fantastic claims, and to all the maximum in each case at the low- est figure possible.

High levels of armaments were. ao substitute for security. At best, they only crentes) an illusion of security in one quarter. while at the same time aggravating the sense, of insecurity in another.

Security for all depended Dos armamenta reduction. Armament were a symptom of a pathological condition. It was an attempt to rid aneself of a plague by infecting one's neighbours.

At the conclusion of Sir John Simon's speech there was enthu siastic applause and the delegates of many countries shook bím by the hand and warmly congratulated him.

Stricking Figures.

M. Tardieu, who followed, am plified the French schéms already outlined, and declared that France was ready to make... contractual engagements to limit: armament: during a fixed nexiad, and would. favourably examine : reductions which might be, suggested supple mentary to those within the. frame work, of the; daaft convention.
