iSed that her recommendation regard

tween the men of highest responsibility
and greatest authority in London and
Washington, respectively, there Is no
British-American question which can
not be settled, and settled right. More
over, the naval question as now TO-
cused-the question of combat equality
or approximate equality--is far from
the only question outstanding between
Britain and America. Fix parity and
tonnage how we like. the great. the
crucial question remains: How are
these navies to be used in the event or
aggressive war in scorn OF the BRAND
Kellogg pact-such a war as neither
Britain nor America ever will start?
Until we have a clear understanding on
this head British-American relations
are a long way from where they ought
to be"
Attention was called to the confusion
existing both in the United States and
Great Britain as to the real prospects
of a naval record. Mr.. Bell was invited
to saw whether he believes when airs
said and done, there is substantial
reason to expect that Premier Mac
Donald and President Hoover will get
together on terms mutually satisfactory
to both countries.
Both Desire Reduction.
"I think So" he said. because both
these men. who Of course, are strong
men. really desire to reduce naval arm
aments to as low a point as Is consist
ent. first, with the mutual security OF
Britain and America, and, second, with
the security of English-speaking civiii-
zation-a thing which must be de-
Tended, IL at all, upon the sea-. The
second of these objects, indeed, Is IN
Guided in the first, for If Britain Is
nayaliy prepared for self-defense, ana
America is in like position, their
democratic systems cannot be attacked
with success. assuming, to be sure, that
any such attack would meet a COM
oined opposition"
Late cables from Geneva and Lon
don having suggested that Mr.. Mac
Donald's visit has vanished into the
realm of the wholly indefinite, Mr.: Ben
wa urged. from his close knowledge
of the British premier's thoughts on
the subject, to discuss them.
mo one can say just now" he de-
cIared. whether 1t is certain Mr.. Mac
Donald will come to Washington or
not. I know only that he wants to
come that, to speak frankly, he Is
eager to come. as was that other splen-
did British leader. Stanley Baldwin.
It is common ground among the first
public men of England that non-inter-
course of the face-to-face kind between
British and American statesmen has
been one of the gravest liabilities of
the postwar epoch. It has been stupid.
It has been unnecessary 1t might
have been disastrous. I hope we are
