IMPORTANT CONFERENCE
AT LEAGUE OF NATIONS COUNCIL
BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRJGH'I LONDON, June 4.
The meeting of the Foreign Ministers of Britain and France (Mr Austen Chamberlain and M. Briand) is expected to- be' the most significant loature of the thirty-fourth session of the Council of the League of Nations, which opens at Geneva on Monday. The session will probably continue for four days, the only items on the agenda being the unending squabble between Poland and the free city of Danzig, and the v question of the treatment of minorities in the little States created by the Treaty of Versailles. It is understood that Mr Chamberlain would not have attended lint for the opportunity . of conferring with M. Briand regarding the terms of the French reply to Germany’s proposal for a security pact. The French press affirm that Mr. Chamberlain and the Premier (Mr. Stanley Baldwin) are willing to bind Britain to give military support to France and Belgium in the event _of German aggression, but are unwilling to pledge themselves concerning Poland and Czerho-Slovakia. This is. however, not confirmed by London in such an explicit form.
