clined to take the witness stand and

DOUBT FRANCE WENT FAR
ENOUGH IN NAVAL PLANS
Proposals May Not Satisfy Italy
Program Hardly Matches More
Liberal Offer of Nation.

Rome, July II P)-Doubt was ex-
pressed IN some circles today that
France. in announcing that no new
naval vessels would be- begun within
the next six months. has gone far
enough to match Italian offers Of
indefinite suspension of the 1880
building program.
The French move, announced by
Foreign Minister Aristide BRAND be-
fore the foreign relations committee
OF the chamber of deputies, was re-
Carded generally as insufficient an
swer to Foreign Minister Grandis
more sweeping proposals.
1t was commented that the six
months suspension of commence
ment of new activity would improve
Franco-1talian relations. but would
hardly solve their naval difficulties,
particularly the Italian contention
for. parity.
Some quarters considered NJ
Rrland S move a gesture of good will
and as possibly clearing the way for
resumption of Italo-French discus
sions of naval ratios.

CASTLE DEFENDS
PACT At CHICAGO
Assistant Secretary Of State
Praises Treaty in Address

Chicago, July II UP)-The ad-
ministration carried it's campaign to
popularize the London naval treaty
into the middle west today when
Assistant Secretary of State Castle
defended the pact before the Union
League club here.
Castle was a special United States
representative at TOXIC during the
period of the London disarmament
conference.
Discussing the argument of anti
treaty senators that the treaty
places this country at a naval disad-
vantage regarding Japan, Castle said
that during the negotiations Japan
had the American navy in view"
but that the japanese feel very
friendly toward this country because
of our aid in the days when Japan
was rising to a place as a world
power.
Castle absolved Japan of bad
faith in holding out at London for
a 10-7 ratio with the United States
in 1922 to a 1916 ratio in capital
ships. He said the Washington
agreement bore no rela ton to cruis-
ers, destroyers and submarines.
Fear held in some quarters that
Japan might seize the Philippines
were secuted by Castle He quoted
Baron Shidehara, japanese foreign
minister, as having said that war
could only mean eventual ruin for
Japan.
The treaty. I believe. gives Japan
secruity in its own waters and it
gives US security in our waters"
Castle asserted. Surely no one who
knows anything of naval affairs can
have the slightest fear of japanese
attack on this country"
Castle in a summary statement
said he thought the treaty fair to all
participating nations, and that it
would eliminate dangerous naval
competition and aid the cause of in
ternational peace.
