WAR MANEUVERS ON IN LONDON

Secret Conferences at Navy Meet

BULLETIN.

LONDON, Feb. 23.-H. J. Greenwall, special correspondent for the capitalists' Daily Express declared tonight that the five-power naval conference had completely collapsed.

"The conference is closing down until 1935," he wrote.

"My statement probably will be denied by the official spokesman for the British delegation, but it nevertheless is a fact."

LONDON, Feb. 23.-The imperialist delegates at the race-for-armament conference are awaiting the arrival of the new French delegation which is expected to arrive Wednesday.

The French delegation, if the Chautemps government is confirmed in the Chamber of Deputies, will consist of Camille Chautemps, the new premier, Foreign Minister Briand, Albert Sarraut, Minister of Marine, and chief author of the present French demands; M. Lamoureux, Minister of Finance, and M. Danielou, Minister of Merchant Marine.

Meanwhile, the British, American and Japanese delegates are not idle. There go on interminable secret conferences, maneuvers, plottings and war preparations.

While the mention of the Soviet Union might be officially absent from the capitalist press reports, it is none the less certain that the attacks on the Soviet Union, being engineered by American imperialism with strong support by British French, German and other capitalist governments, take up a large part of the informal conversations between the imperialist representatives.
