DISARMAMENT CONFERENCE.
QUESTION OF AGENDA. By Telegraph—Prepa Association—Copyright. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Received September 28, 2.30 a.m.) LONDON, September 27. Official quarters are disinclined to discuss the Washington Conference pending the receipt of a detailed programme trom the United States of tlio business it is proposed to submit to i-hp conference. There is sectional opinion that if the conference had been confined to an effort to secure general agreement on disarmament, a distinct step forward would have been obtained without adding the Pacific problem. 4he latter involves so many delicate issues that failure to agree is likely to make the question more acute hereafter. Advices from America indicate that President Harding is working strenuously to create a suitable atmosphere for the Conference but his efforts are hampered by injudicious newspaper dispatches from Tokio.
