THE CONFERENCE.
JAPAN AND HER NAVY, HURRYING BUILDINC. THE SUBMARINE PROBLEM. By Telegraph.— Press Assn.—Copyright. Received Nov. 21, 8.25 p.m. New York, Nov. 21. The New York World’s Tokio correspondent states that, obeying the Naval Department’s special request, the contractors who are building the super-dreadnought Tosa, which, under Mr. Hughes’ plan, would be scrapped, are hurrying the work to enable the launching of the vessel fifteen days ahead of the original date, December 19. Naval authorities are singularly reticent in discussing submarine tonnage, which they consider necessary for defence. It is believed they do not agree with Britain's desire to abolish the submarine.
