in no sense their responsibility, because
they gave their figures as soon as they
we're asked to do so. M. Brands accep-
lance in principle OF Mr.. Hughes plan,
according to French circles, was it is in
dicatad, not an acceptance Of the status
quo of n~avies, but an acceptance of the
principle,of naval limitation. The notes
of the speech in the French text, it is
averred, showed that this was the case
nd that all of the criticism of France,
outside the Conference, as having
changed her attitude since that speech,
is due to a misconception OF what he
really said. Although the French naval
plan itself stipulates that nc new capital
ship shall be laid down before 1926.
the view of the French Govt. it is af-
frmed, is that building can be begun in
that year and regularly continued, be-
cause by that time it is expected that
French finances will have recovered suf-
f"iciently to permit this expenditure.
