Chamberlain's conversations dealt with the date of the preparatory disarmanent conference, the reduction of the Allied forces in the Rhineland, Mosul, Morocco/Egypt, and Syria, and the Chinese crisis, and certain claims of the Italian Government in regard to territories borderinp Abyssinia and the Red Sea. The possibility of postponing the disarmament conference until Germany had fulfilled her disarmament obligations was also considered. M. Briand will submit the question of the reduction of the Allied forces in the Rhineland to the Military Council, including Marshal Foch and General Petain. M. Painleve, writing in the Excelsior, remarks that it would be natural enough if Britain sought to enlist the eventual support of Italy for htr policy in the Near East, if only to give; the Turks something to think-.about; but no Mediterranean agreement is possible without France; therefore M. Briand and Sir A. Chamberlain approached the questions of Morocco, Egypt, Syria, and Mosul in the spirit of loyal collaboration.
