SOVIET LOSES ARMS PLEA AND GAINS PRESTIGE Immediate Armament Cut Certain to Be Voted Down Today. BY HE NRY WOOD I mt*d Prp*> '•lafT f orrf.ponil'nt GENEVA, April IP —Although the tM3uct project for an immediate >0 per cent reduction in the existing armaments of the world was doomed to certain rejection at torisj’s meetings of the preparatory ci armament conference, the ruling allowing a vote on the proportion v.a regarded a; a distinct triumph for Russian diplomacy. Alter lour powers had declared at V ' dnesday’s meeting that* the project wa unacceptable, Maxim Litvinofi, head ot the Rui-sian delegatmn, demanded a roll call on hhe nindamental prnciplrs yivolved in the scheme, to put the delegations ol the xveral states on record. Litvinofl armted with character--1 tic vehemence until President J. T oudon consented to the vote today. Trance, Chile, Germany and •tapan had announced that the projc< i whs not acceptable to them and iv I,oudon ruled that a tote would be unnecessary. But Litvinoff pointed out, that while flic stand ot those delegations vas known, that ot other nations was not and insisted on a roll call. The Turkish project, equally certain to be rejected, according to observers. was on the schedule for discussion today. Count von Bernstorff. who earlier in the conference insisted that the Russian proposition h*- brought up for immediate discussion, supported the Japanese delegation in its stand that only an eventual disarmament. conference would be competent to fix the actual reductions <>f the armaments ol each country and that the Soviet project was too flra tic for a preparatory committee to act on. The Chilean representatives opposed the Soviet, idea as constituting too radical a change in method and also as failing to conform with the article of the covenant which provides that the geographical and political situation of each country hall be considered in fixing reductions in armaments.
