IS GERMANY ARMING?

Ländon, Nov. 29. Well-informed quarters discredit the statement sitributed by Le Matin to General Bingham, head of the central section of the Allied Military Control in Germany, that disarmament in Germany was completed months ago.

Conference of It is pointed out that the latest note of the Ambassadors to Germany plainly intimated that a number of the military clauses in the Treaty of Versailles had not been carried ont to the satisfaction of the Allies. Since the dispatch of this note, owing to the occupation of the Ruhr, no Allied control had been exercised and, meanwhile, large numbers of men exceeding the Treaty establishment had been rapidly training militarily.

Experts are of opinion that, owing to the French occupation of the Rahr, Germany is at present unable to provide herself with

try, but Krupps have cultivated close relations with Russia and

Sweden, though it is not yet possible to ascertain whether this con- carned the manufacture and supply of guns. It is also pointed out that the Allies have not secured more than half of the rifles in Ger- factories many. There is little doubt that the German small arms are turning out these and amgnition on a large scale. Altogether the situation is regarded as a potential though not Menace."

NIPPON YUSEN KAISHA'S DISPUTE.

Tokyo, Nov. 29.

To-day the directors and shareholders of the Nippon Yusen Kaisha are holding a general meeting when the situation created by the attitude of the employees at the Company's offices at home and abroad will be fully aired.

Changes in the Company's regulations, which it is alleged handicap the land employees to the advantage of the marine em- ployees, have tended to accentuate relations between these two sections of employees, which always have been antagonistic and have resulted in a reported threat by the land employees to resign en bloc unless their grievances are remedied.

Despite the belief by the Company's officials that the question will be easily settled, developments are being watched with great interest not only by the employees but by ndabers of local shippers, who will be largely affected should the trouble take a more serious ture.

After a long spell at the wicket, there is nothing more refreshing thun-
