NAVAL AGREEMENT
BRITAIN AND U.S.A. f United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright). LONDON, Sept. 12. The Daiiv Telegraph’s diplomatic corres"• >nd<mf..^jvys, The. Prime. Minister, Mr ■'Vmsay 'MacDonald, is definitely going to Washington on September 28th if- an ; agreement in principle on the crucial point, is reached with President Hqover through General Dawes. In the event of there being no agreement, the visit will necessarily be of a much later date. The an.x,ibus interest with which the Washington Government's reply to the latest British proposals is awaited can therefore be understood. •The correspondent points out that if the United States builds the full complement of fifteen ' big cruisers proposed, then Japan might be obliged to follow suit eventually, which President Hoover is anxious to avoid. Moreover, there is a further possibility of on outcry from Australia if the Japanese cruiser fleet is thus extended. Therefore, Japan may be brougjit into the naval discussion earlier than had been anticipated.
