CRUISER OFFER REPORTED.

LONDON, July % CP).-One inter.
probation of Foreign Secretary Cham.
berlain's naval statement in the House
of Commons yesterday, made by the
diplomatic correspondent of the West
minister Gazette, is that Great Britain
would be willing to effect COM
promise agreement with the United
States as regards 10,000-ton cruisers,
lasting until 1881. or at most until
1886. when the Washington treaty ex.
pires.
This agreement, the correspondent
says, would fix ratio and figure
for the 10.000-ton type on basis of
Anglo-American parity and give the
parties concerned freedom in estab.
fishing the tonnage of lighter cruis.
ers in consonance with their national
defense requirements.
"Such temporary arrangement"
he adds, would probably save the
conference from failure. because it
would obviate tying the three govern
ments concerned to a permanent in.
ternational agreement arising from the
unsatisfactory Geneva conference. 1t
would, moreover, leave the door open
for a more satisfactory arrangement
after 1881"
Mr.. Chamberlain said that there
need be no difficulty in arriving at a
temporary arrangement about the i'm
mediate future of cruiser building"

suit of the conferences in London.
Officials also noted the statement OF
w. c.. Bridgeman, first lord OF the
admiralty and head of the British
Geneva delegation, made as he left
London for Geneva, that even IL a
cruiser agreement was not possible, an
understanding as to destroyers and
submarines conceivably could be
reached.
AS to both this suggestion and that
of Chamberlain relative to a tempo.
rary understanding, it was said in au-
thoritative circles that the Washing.
ton Government sees no advantage in
partial agreements, limited sharply as
to time and dealing only with elements
of the auxiliary ship problem.
Proposals Not Favored.
The question of reaching an agree
ment covering limitation of all classes
Of auxiliary naval tonnage Is looked
upon as one thing and that of dealing
with destroyers or submarines as sep

their relation to the cruiser question,

TRANSPORT. SURVEY.
OF D. c. UNDER WAY
Street Car and Motor Bus
Problems Studied by En-
gineer Mills.

The future street car and motor
bus transportation needs of Washing
ton are being studied this week for
the National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission by Earl o. Mills, a
transportation engineer from st.
Louis. Mr.. Mills Is one Of the group
of consultants assisting the commits.
sion in the preparation OF Compre-
hensive plan for the development of
the Capital City. and he will make
a detailed report to the commission
in September. on the subject of transit
facilities.
On previous VISITS Mr.. Mills looked
into the transportation problems ex-
pected to arise in the triangle between
Pennsylvania avenue and the Mali
when the Governments big building
program in that area Is completed.
Studies Routing System.
He is here this week to make a sur
vey of transit facilities Of the city as a
whole, with a view to recommending
where changes might be deemed ad-
visable as the city grows. According
sistant to the Planning Commission,
Mr.. Mills will study the routing of the
public transportation systems, the
question of how existing trackage
would fit in II a merger should be ac-
complished at some future time, and
similar problems. The study also will
cover the use of the motor bus, which
in recent years has been adopted as
the means of extending service into
newly developed outlying sections.
1t Is probable Mr. Mills will give
some thought to such special problems
as exist, for example, on Fourteenth
street between New York avenue and
II street and New York avenue be.
tween Fourteenth and Fifteenth
streets, where four tracks exist.
According to Maj. Brown. the pur-
pose OF these engineering studies is
not so much to recommend immediate
changes, but to have available data
and recommendations that could be
considered with the Public Utilities
Commission in connection with the
planning of the city Of the future.
Report In September.
Even such transportation changes
as may be found necessary to serve
the public buildings in the triangle
are not likely to reach the state OF be-
ing carried out until the five-year
building program Is virtually complete
The study Of the transportation facil.
titles of the entire city also is likely
to deal with future problems in a
broad light. Whether the report will
suggest changes that should be made
Immediately will not be known until
1t is completed in September.
