 A LIMIT IN MONEY
 Tt would probably be found in the event of definite agreement between the nations. that more workable plan would be to adopt the sugges. tion of q limit expressed not in numbers of vessels, but in money. With proper calculations based on varying rates of exchange. it ought to be possible to arrive at some fixed amount that would not be exceeded by any of the nations concerned
 As it is an international matter any decisions would rightly be taken primarily by the statesmen, the func- tion of the naval experts being to tender the necessary advice
 But all these considerations are more or less speculative. What we want is a practical, duly-authenticat- ed proposal We have not got it yet, and until we do we must see that we do nothing further to lower our naval efficiency in the matter of equipment.
