A Tt'ST OF PUBLIC OPINION

“Public opinion has moved on from limitation to expect reduction. When realism has taken such drastic shape as a proposal to dispense with battleships, even in the United States, which might have been expected to rise up in defence of the ‘core of the fleet.’ it has been received at least with an open mind. So far this is progress, since what the nations expect of the delegates they must expect of themselves. The Conference, while it compares and tabulates ships, guns, men, harbours, and the ic.-t, will be actually judging, and testing wlia.t the political elements in security are worth in the world's marketplace. This is as much 'as to ask what democracy is worth and what is the true quality and price of public opinion in 1930.”—“Tlie Times.”
