Mr Stim&on, testifying before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, which is holding open hearings of. the London Treaty, declared the instrument was a fair and honorable agreement which brought parity between Britain and United States and paved the way to further limit tions. His Conference colleagues would agree with him that Britain was not building against United States. He emphasised that there had been criticism in England of the British Government’s action in reducing the number of cruisers, but. he added that for Britain to reduce the number of her cruisers was very fine.” He said the American delegation was responsible for preventing the breaking up of the Conference at one time in a bad atmosphere, due to problems arising from British, French and Italian differences. He concluded hv stating that the London Conference was a long step forward.
