reason for this failure OF publica-

London, Nov. l4th. Officials in Down

Mr., Lloyd George cordially welcomed
the general principle Of the United States
naval restriction programme, as laid
down by Mr.. Hughes at the United States
session of the Washington Conference
last Saturday. The Prime Minister is
keeping in close touch with the proceed
ings at Washington. Mr.. Balfour al
ready has submitted a report and it was
said today that there would be daily
communication between him and Mr..
Lloyd George. Govt. officials emphaslz-
ed, however, that it should not be in
ferred that the policy of the British de-
legates in the United States capital was
being dictated from London. 1t was
pointed out that while neither Mr.. Lloyd
George nor Mr.. Balfour had the requls-
lite technical knowledge to approve OF the
United States proposals Oft hand, they
were both heartily in favour OF the gen
eral principles contained in the proposal.
The United States naval restriction
proposal could be carried out with great

tonnage might spend what it thus saved
on ibattleships in building B%aircraft,
submarines and d~estroyers. There is no
getting away from the fact that battle
ships are of no use in case of war be-
tween countries situated with their base
thousands of miles apart and where geo
graphical position does not act as it did
in the late war. 1t is obvious that Great
p in has more than enough capital
SHIPS for Europe and the scrapping of ca
pital ships, which are beyond her home
requirements, is entirely in her favour,
and is a great measure OF !economy as we'll.
Therefore, he declared, the f1otilla must
preserve the ocean routes and in this

enormous superiority in the number

Montreal, Nov. 14th.-The Royal
Board of Trade were in receipt of a let
ter yesterday from Messrs. Mac Donald
and Co.. a prominent firm of Antigua
B. w. |. urging the need for a better
service between Canada and the eastern
group of the West Indies. The present
service from Halifax and St. John to the
eastern group, is not in the opinion of
this firm sufficient to encourage trade
with Canada, as against Canada with
the United States. The Council of the
Board Of Trade decided to obtain all
possible information with a view to
a~scertaining whether conditions would
warrant additional expenditure in the
connection on the part of the Canadian

morning at reports from Washington
that the British and Japanese delegation
to the armament conference are pre-
pared to accept in principle the Hughes
proposals for a ten years naval holiday
and the scrapping of aIIehut a limited
number of warships. In it's second
thoughts on the proposals set forth by
Mr.. Hughes, the press shows no lessen.
ing of the appreciation expressed yester-
day, and devOtes more attention to the
probable effect of the plan on Great Bri-
tain's naval position. 1t is freely rec0g-
nized that the United States offers to
make sacrifices both in money and as
piratiOns, which is greater than she asks
of other nations. At the same time, it
is remarked that Great Britain, as a far
scattered empire, is in quite a different
position than the self contained Uni
ted States, and that circumstances are
conceivable in which Great Britain
might becalled upon to defend the Bri-
ish isles and at the same time pro
tect the outlying parts of the En-
pire as we'll as guard trade and
defend routes. This, it is argued.
must be considered when the details of
the plan came up for discussion in the
conference. There are also some indi-
cations of reluctance among the naval
experts to agree to the proposal that
Great Britain scrap the four postwar
battles fps of the Hood type. contracts
for which were recently placed. These
Warships, it is c%ontended, are superior
to any so far projected by the United
States and cancellation of the contracts
would Immediately place Great Britain in
an inferior position to the United States
as regards to battIeship strength, as the
United States ships would be newer and
more powerful. The point is also made
that any arrangement made in Wash
ington should permit the dominions to
build cruisers in addition to those
Great Britain possesses. The experts
further contend that any arrangements
as suggested by Mr.. Hughes, connot
satisfactorily be confined to the United
States, Great Britain and Japan, as
otherwise a squirt in naval building by
European powers, or ever perhaps
South American nations, might upset the
contemplated balance of sea power lead
ing to announcement of the agreement.

say should be f%orestalled. The pros
pect of an increase in the number of
unemployed workmen by the cancellation
of the contracts for the four Hood type
ships, as we'll as the forced idleness for

but IS not urged as a reason against ac-
