PLAN DISCUSSION OF
u. S. ARMAMENT PLAN

WASHINGTON, -. c., Nov.
30-Reports were circulating to-
day i'll authoritative naval circles
OF the conference. that the desire
OF France To have a navy equal
to that of Japan. would be OPP
posed by the British. whose naval
experts state that ii France and
Italy had fleet equal to that of
Japan. the combination OF France
and Italy would have complete
control of the Mediterranean.
If the English. French and Italian
nayies are placed on ratio Of 5-5-3
the union of Franco-Italian fleets
would have the complete control OF
the Mediterranean, which the British
hold is indispensable to them as the
highway to India and distant South
Africa
The comment i'm French naval cir
cles is, that as Italy and France are
friends of Great Britain there is no
more reason TO fear a combination or
the two against her. than there is to
fear that the United States and Japan
would unite against her.
