DRASTIC SLASH IN ARMS ASKED BY MACDONALD War Warning Is Sounded by British Premier in Impassioned Plea. (Continued From Page One) limited to 406 millimeters ‘approximately 16 inches) 3. Limitation of tanks to sixteen tons m size. 4. Reduction of continental armies by one-third after standardization. 5. Prohibition of air bombing and setting the number of airplanes possessed by France, Britain, Japan, Italy, Russia and the United States to 500 each. Pleads With Franre MacDonald made an open plea to France to make concessions to save the conference, and to Germany not to wreck it by re-arming. Looking at Premier Edouard Daladier, he said: “Some of you might find the risks you are asked to bear too great. I ask you to study the plan carefully before submitting alternatives.” The British plan, he said, has four characteristics, as follows: 1. It fixes its duration at five years. 2. It calls for reduction of armaments, not re-armament. 3. It provides for international control of armaments. 4. It puts figures down for the first time. The proposals for reduction of continental armies by one-third after standardization is in accordance with the French scheme, he added. Italy Made Exception The convention stipulates that no military nor naval aircraft shell exceed three tons unladen. Regarding naval armament, the convention states that Italy would be an exception to the truce on capital ship building and may lay down “one. ship, France having laid down the Dunquerque in 1932. since the commencement of the disarmament conference.” Except as otherwise provided in the London naval treaty, there would be no construction of eightinch gun cruisers. Germany would be freed from the naval limitation clauses of the Versailles treaty, although in fact her naval position is stabilized up to the end of 1936 at what it is today.
