Negotiations.

WASHINGTON, February S.
A United Press Association message states that official circles regard the British proposals for the resumption of Anglo-American naval discussion or for the negotiation of a treaty to outlaw war as interesting but impracticable.
They emphasise the United States' recent vain moves toward both objectives in discussions at Geneva and with France. It is believed unlikely that the United States will enter an anti-war pact with any country alone or any group unless it includes Britain, France, Italy, Germany and Japan.
Even then Mr. Kellogg (Secretary of State) is believed only to be willing to renounce war as an instrument of national policy without adopting the term "outlaw."
