MEAGRE IN CRUISERS
BRITAIN’S NAVAL STRENGTH RAISES CRITICISM ECHO OF LONDON PACT Times Cable. LONDON, Thursday. “The Times” refers in an editorial article to the speeches of Earl Beatty and Earl Jellicoe in the House of Lords on the London Xaval Treaty. It says they must increase the anxiety •about Britain's meagre allowance of cruisers. However, the speeches will not persuade the great bulk of responsible opinion that the elimination of competitive building between Britain, the United States, and Japan was not such a great benefit that it justified the Government in accepting the treaty, remarks the paper. The Lords’ debate will have on excellent effect if it impresses upon the nation the necessity for vigilance to ensure that Brij tain’s naval construction does not lag | behind the treaty standard.
