Abstract
Starting from a -odd Lagrangian involving the nucleon, meson, and electromagnetic fields interacting at a point, we calculate the one-meson-exchange diagram and obtain the longest-range part of a two-nucleon electromagnetic operator. Even if this interaction were present with "maximal" strength, we would not expect -invariance violation to have been seen in any of the existing interference experiments including which has the smallest gap between model and experiment.
