(By tbe As sociated Press) Wide pnaMbihtlea affecting re atlont between all coun tries on tbe American continent may be Involved In the Central American conference, called to meet In Wash ington Deo mber 4 fur discussion among other things ot a plan for limi tation of armaments. In Latin-American circles here today the opinion was-expressed that tife conference might prove a step toward the for mation of Pan-American Association of Natl-inn. It was pointed out that the agenda of the conference, as out.ined hi Sec retary Hughes' invitation (n the Cen tral American powers, is of such scope as to permit the dlscubsion of , any subject of mutual Interest to the na tions participating. In vw of this, and because of the recent- suggestion of Chile for a South American agree ment on limitation of armament and the movement in Uruguay for Pan-AmerU-an league as a peace measure, R would cause litt'.e surprise in gov crment circles here if the Central American conference made at least tentative suggestions for a Inter gen eral agreement among all . Latin American countries.. Naturally such a step 'would be dependent on the suc cess of the Central American con ference, which is confidently' expected in government and diplomatic circles in Washington. . . The Central American conference willdeal only with -land armaments since none of the five countries in vited lias a navy. Treaties resulting from the conference might well pro vide however, it was suggested, 4hat none of these countris should at any time plan naval expenditures except for necpssary police work in their waters.
