<o> — BRITISH CABINET MEETS ARMS CONVENTION PLAN British Wireless RUGBY, Jan. 14 The British Foreign Secretary, Sir John Simon, returned to London today from Geneva in order to attend a meeting of the Cabinet which is being held to-day instead of Wednesday, in order to enable the Prime Minister t,o fulfil various public engagements in tho North of England this week. Some discussion and interest has been aroused by the suggestion initiated by the Times, that an arms convention might be approached by way of a declaration by the Powers benefiting from the Treaty of Versailles to the effect that chapter five of the treaty, containing military, naval and air clauses, should no longer operate against any signatory Power on condition that a general agreement is reached on the limitation of armaments and full participation by Germany in a collective European scheme.
