PACT FOR PEACE.
TREATIES, ATTITUDE OF BRITAIN. APPROVAL SOUGHT. r By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. London, July 7. Mr. Amery, in the House of Commons, moved the second reading of the Washington Treaties Bill. He explained that the object was to give the Government legal powers to carry out certain provisions of the two naval treaties. Mr. Amery thought there should not be any hesitation in showing that the English Parliament was entirely behind this great pact. Mr. Asquith said he would have welcomed an agreement to abolish submarine warfare altogether. It was time we had a similar agreement regarding land armaments and men. Mr. Amery said he still hoped the Powers outside the five signatories would come into line. The bill was read a second time unanimously.
