DISARMAMENT QUESTION CROSS-CURRENTS AT GENEVA Australian Press Association. (Received 13th September, 2.30 p.m.) LONDON, 12th September. The Australian Press Association's Geneva correspondent states that disarmament, with its ever-recurring mention of security by the Europeans, is the liveliest subject of discussion. Germany is impatient to see the Versailles provisions applied to her vanquishers. France is dubious whether sufficient security is assured, and finds herself beside Britain in opposing haste in convening the Preparatory Commission for disarmament. Lord Cushendun in the afternoon eloquently repeated proofs of Britain's sincerity, and deprecated haste because every day war was becoming more unthinkable among civilised nations.Lord Cushendun and M. Briand in the lunch hour cordially compared impressions of yesterday's "Big Six" conference, at which an excellent spirit was shown. The correspondent learns that Germany did not submit a Rhinoland scheme, but the most useful suggestions came from others for consideration at to-morrow's resumption. ■
