Steady reduction Of the worlds

100000 tons Of fighting craft, with

President Hoover and Premier Ram

selves in the present negotiations.
They are hopeful OF success.
Great Britain and the United

The program contemplates no

as characterized the memorable

submarine for submarine, etc.
Britain's superiority In cruiser

superiority in the gun-power Of her

Under the program agreed upon,
the United States will complete the
15-eruiser program which Congress
authorized last year. to cost some
$4,000, 600, and which President
Hoover had hoped to avoid.
British inststence, however, upon
at least 100000 tons Of cruiser
strength as the irreducibIe minimum
required for empire safety, made it
impossible to realize this hope, and
the cruisers therefore will be com

placement Of their old ships under

the Forthcoming December confer
ence the aim will be to obtain
agreement not only to extend. the
life Of these ships, but not to re.
place them as they reach obso-
