It was believed here that Mussolini like wise would have a program for avins readjustment to offer. Meanwhile, dissatisfaction with S' Vi-ial »>ha«es of the British plan for arms reductions was express ed unofficially hy delegates 011 the world disarmament commis sion hero. The delegates officially com-I mentud "pleasantly on the boldness , of the plan, submitted by Premier .1. Ramsay MaeDonald. They with 1 held further official comment, however, un'il completion of ''fur ther detailed study required by so large a project." The commission adjourned un til next Wednesday but the plan came in for hot discussion among the delegates meeting informally in Geneva during the interval: 'I he British plan to abolish military and naval aviation—a : eli. me which would most directly affect the United States—'met with strong opposition in several quarters. Furthermore, few Frenchmen were prepared to accept the sug gestion that Germany be permit ted to increase her armed forces to 200.000, as proposed by Mac I Donald. With the German Fas I ci '.ts in control across the Rhine, France fears any move to increase their army and hand them the means whereby renewed trouble might occur in the Khinelond, causing fresh warfare. Observers* emphasized that Bri tain. although offering projects manic 'stly reducing the arms bur den, had failed to afford the spe cific guarantees against aggres sion which France insists upon before laying down a single rifl<>. The British proposals will b;> studied in detail by the chancel lors s of Europe over the week end, seeking bargaining point; and bases for further discussion. Premier MaeDonald, accompa nied by Sir John Simon, British foreign secretary will confer with Premier Benito Mussolini at Rome, at which time he was expected to f-eek 11 Duce's support for his arms readjustment scheme.
