NEW ZEALAND’S VIEWS FORCE OPPOSED By Telegraph —Copyright—Press Assn. GENEVA, Feb. 16. Fresh interest was given to the flagging Disarmament Conference by the Argentinian delegate, Dr. Boschis, who made an intense appeal for an agreement to prevent a repetition of the inhumanity and suffering involved in war-time. Sir Thomas Wilford said that New Zealand accepted the draft convention as a basis of discussion and shared Sir John Simon's views on Security. It was opposed to the French proposal for the creation of an international force, and considered that the Washington and London naval agreements should be the basis of international agreements. New Zealand favoured the abolition of chemical warfare and submarines, but realised the difficulty of accomplishing the removal of the latter.
