vately owned systems. In the Unit ed States all telephones are so op- erated. The United States with 15.S telephones for each 100 of its peo- pie, had nearly eight times the telephone density of Europe. Most of the telephones in Canada and Denmark are operated by private companies and these two countries take second and third place, re- spectively, among the nations of the world in the number of tele- phones relative to population. Canada had 13.1 and Denmark 10.1 telephones per 100 population, fol- lowed by New Zealand with 9.9, Sweden with 9.1, Switzerland with 7.9 and Australia with n.
 Telephones in Germany, Great Britain and France are operated by the governments of these coun- tries. Germany, which ranks sec- Der of telephones, had less than Britain and France the number of telephones relative to population is smaller than in Germany. Ar. gentina, with nearly one-half the telephones in South America had 2.7 per 100 population, a telephone density nearly as great as that of France. Japan and the Union of South Africa lead their respective continents in telephone develop ment, but each of these countries had only IA for each 100 people.
 Outside of North America, Eu- rope is better equipped with tele- phones than any other continent, but the supply of European tele- phones relative to population is on n par with that prevailing in this country more than thirty years ago. '. The ractical interest which this survey of telephone development holds for Americans is emphasized by the fact that about 92 per cent of all the telephones in the world can be reached by telephone from any part of the United States. All countries having more than 10p,- 900 telephones, except New Zeal and. Japan, Russia and China, are connected by telephone with this country. Among the more distant parts of the world with which the United States has recently estab- ilshed telephone connection are Siam, Palestine, Egypt, the Union of South Africa, Portugal, Major- ca. Nassau, Colombia, Venezuela, Peru, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama and the Canal Zone and the island of Luzon in the Philip pines. Twenty ocean liners are also connected with America by radio telephone service.

JAPAN SEEKING FOR NEW NAVAL
 AGREEMENTS
Wants Washington a n d London Treaties s Changed so That Japan Can Be More Equal
BY STEWART BROWN United Press Stan CorrespOndent)

Geneva, May 25-(U.P.y - No Naotake Sato, Japanese delegate to the disarmament conference, pro- posed to-day that 8 new naval agreement, replacing the Washing ton and London naval treaties, be included in any future arms con- vetion.
 Japan has expressed before her desire to change the present 5-5-3 naval ratio, which restricts her to three tons of naval vessels for each five tons maintained by Great Bri- tain and the United States.
 As a matter of prestige, and in order to defend her Asiatic policy, Japanese desire a more favorable naval ratio.
 Sato. speaking before the general the deletion of the article in the which binds signatories of the Washington and London treaties to the limitations under said treat- ies."
 "The Japanese delegation ,at- taches greatest importance to the inclusion of new naval accord in a future convention" Sato said, because such an accord would not fail to exercise Q favorable in- fiuence on the work of disarma- ment."
 Sato reminded the conference that Japan last December present. ed new naval proposals, which had not yet been studied.
 Norman H. Davis, United States chief delegate, and Anthony Eden, acting chief BritishN delegate, smiled wryly at Sato's statement.
 They recalled that the Japanese proposals of December altered the Washington and London naval ra- tios against them, and virtually ly gave Japan parity.
 Sato argued that if the London and Washington treaties were ap- piled, the signatories would be forced to increase their present levels of battleships and aircrafts, both as~to quality and as to quan- tity.
 "In other words, he said, "those treaties in their present form do not answer the questions in our conference. Therefore the Japan csc delegation is convinced that 1t Is not in the interest of disarma- ment efforts to take as a base for future agreement the tonnages allotted at Washington and Lon don, or even to refere to them."
