HARVEY HEARS OF TASK Bir I.anning IVorthlngton - Evans Presents Proposals Consid ered at Conference. " CANNES, Jan. 2. (By the Asso ciated Press.) The plan of Premier ' Lloyd George of Great Britain for an economic rejuvenation of Europe, and the results of the meetings In Paris by bankers and business men of the allied countries -were outlined to George Harvey, American ambas sador, today by Sir Laming "Worth-Ington-Evans, British secretary for ;war. The Associated Press has been In formed from a reliable source that Blr Laming made It dear that Great Britain regarded the participation y the United States as an essential it the consortium proposed In Paris Is to succeed. Mr. Harvey was under stood to have replled'that the United States will not make known Its posi tion until the plan Is formally krought before the supreme council. In British circles the expectation fwos that Mr. Harvey will actively Daattfclpate In the economic discus sion at the supreme council, i Long Conversation, Held. ' Mr. Harvey and Myron T. Herrlck, ! the American ambassador to France, Munched together today and after ward were in lengthy conversation, during which the economic confer ence and other questions coming up before the conference were consid ered. It is considered probable Dotn the ambassadors are reporting on lh situation to Washington. Mr. Herrick put Mr. Harvey In touch with the problems wh.ich have been before the council of ambassa dors. Later Mr. Herrick returned to Deafllieu, where he is spending his holiday. Sir Laming had Just previously re ported the results of the Paris eco nomic meeting to Mr. Lloyd George, who was greatly pleased over the outcome. He was reported to be eager to whip the consortium plan into shape, and this probably will be one of the first things to be discussed at the preliminary meeting between him and M. Briand. Mr. Harvey May Be Delegate. Mr. Lloyd George hopes to convince M. Briand of the necessity for making the scheme operative as soon as jJossi- ble, and if M. Briand and Mr. Lloyd George agree on definite proposals, It Js probable the United States will be asked to participate In the plan, mak ing possible Mr. Harvey being includ ed in the discussions at -the council. It was learned from an authoritative source that the entire submarine ques tion may be threshed out between Premier Lloyd George and Premier Trtit'nd at the initial "talk when the French premier arrives here and that the discussion of this subject at Wash ington may mark time while the two premiers try to iron out the diffi culties. Mr. Lloyd George was said to be anxious for the complete success of the Washington conference, because lie relieves on it depends the success Of the economic conference. The coming here of Marquis Curzon, the British foreign secreulry, makes it increasingly clear, according to the Brlt'sh, that the meeting of the allied foreign ministers on the question of the near-eastern settlement will be held at Cannes instead of Paris Imme diately after tho meeting of the su preme council, which is expected to tit lor ten days. .ALLIANCE IV ANTED BY FRANCE Safety of Nation Rccliircd Key to AVhoIo European Situation. LONDON, Jan. I. On the eve of his (departure for Cannes Premier Briand (cave a statement to the Uaily Mail's correspondent at Paris, the gist of Which follows: "The key to tho whole European situation is France's safety. Let there first of all be a pact or alliance be tween Great Britain and France a jiact which we offored and asked for, tout have not obtained. "Such a pact would be the platform ion which the reconstruction of Europe could best be based. It would also be the best proof that our naval build ing programme Is not, and never can te, directed against our English friends. "To such a pact other alliances, em bracing our other allies, might be at tached, perhaps in the form of the Pacific pact. But a Franco-British pact must be the kernel basis of them all." The correspondent says M. Briand poke with marked feeling, almost distress, of the comment evoked in Great Britain and America concern ing the attitude of the French dele gation at the Washington conference.
