London, April 3. During a protracted debate in the House of Lords to-day, Viscount Peel, former Cabinet Minister, pro- posed that Great Britain should accept the role of mediator in any disputes which should in the future arise between Japan and China.

Baron Newton, prominent Conservative Peer, argued that the League of Nations, which had serious- ly blundered in the matter of Far Eastern problems previously, should keep "hands off" the affairs of the. Asiatic powers,

Vienna, April 3.

Austria has decided to ask the Great Powers for permission to re-introduce conscription, says a statement issued before the Cabinet meeting to-night.

"According to a well-informed political authority it is intended at present that the Austrian Army should be increased to 60,000 men by the method of selective cons- cription, in which members of the auxiliary forces will be given preferance.

POLAND FEARS GERMAN RESENTMENT

(By Telegraph. Copyright, Telegraphic Messants Ordinanes, 1894. Received, April 4, 11.30 a.m.)

Paris, April 3.

It is learned in reliable sources that France now plans to modify the proposal for an Eastern European Security Pact, so as to make it acceptable at least to Poland, if not to Germany.

Simultaneously, the Government intends to pro- ceed with plans for further military alliances in view of the German re-armament.

It is indicated that Russia and Czecho-Slovakia will be allied to France.

France, too, may propose a modified draft treaty for an Eastern European Pact when the Powers meet at Stresa. It is suggested that the French proposal will be designed to bring the Eastern European nations more directly within the League of Nations sphere, rather than arrange a purely military combination.

Meanwhile, France's. Senato has passed a Bill under which the Air
