PEACE CONFERENCE
FAR EASTERN COUNTRIES A JAPANESE PROPOSAL (United Press Association.) (By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) BERLIN, October 31. (Received Nov. 1, at 7 p.m.) Newspapers give prominence to a suggestion by the Japanese War Minister (Mr Araki) of a Far Eastern peace' conference and a non-aggression pact with Russia. Semi-official opinion expressed the view that the conference would be of the greatest value in overhauling the Nine-Power Washington Pact and the London and Washington Naval Treaties, bringing the Japanese policy within the framework of international politics. OUTLOOK IN THE PACIFIC;--
AMERICA’S, GROWING ANXIETY.
LONDON, November 1 (Received Nov. 1, at 11 p.m.)
The Daily Telegraph’s diplomatic correspondent says: “ Mr Norman Davis’s sudden decision to return to Washington is regarded as significant. It is believed at Geneva that when the Disarmament Conference reassembles America’s only contribution will be to advise the European Powers to proceed with a reduction of their own armaments. The United States will find herself unable to follow suit owing to the uncertain outlook in the Pacific; in other words America’s growing anxiety about the Far East threatens to paralyse her influence and action in the western world.
