i. S. FIRM ON BIG SHIPS
Stands Rioidly for the 5-5-3 Ratio
on Capital vesseIs-Likes
Jap Plan.

Washington, Nov 21.-While stand
ing rigidly for the 5-5-S ratio of
capital ships and the complete suspen-
sion Of construction of battleships for
the period of the naval holiday, the
United States is disposed to compro-
mise differences of opinion among the
powers on the question of submarines
and other auxiliary craft.
The prospect isdthat Japan will fail
to obtain the 10 per cent increase in
capital ship tonnage she seeks. Ac-
cording to the American viewpoint,
the Hughes plan accords Japan already
10 per cent more than her existing
strength. The British are standing
with the Americans on this point.
If the ratio Of capital ship tonnage
is settled on the proposed basis Of
hating competitive building Of capital
ships, the American delegation will be
ready to discuss the various changes
in the part of the Hughes plan relat-
ing to auxiliary craft which have been
proposed.
