DISCUSS BRITAIN'S
FAR EAST POSITION
Anglo Japanese Alliance
Advocacy Rumored.
By United Press

By United Press
LONDON, Jan. 19-The projected
opening of a British empire naval
conference at Singapore next Tues
day revived discussion in cabinet
circles today of the weakness OF
Great Britain's naval position in the
far east, it was learned on usually
reliable authority.
Sir Bolton Eyres-Monsell, head OF
the admiralty, according to trust
worthy source, expressed views at a
recent cabinet meeting which his
fellow ministers interpreted as
yelled advocacy of a renewal of the
Anglo-Japanese alliance.
1t was reported, however, that
majority of the cabinet received the
suggestion coldly.
Certain of the high officials who
favor American and British cooper
alton, however, argued that the time
was not ripe for the latter alliance,
since it would merely strengthen the
dominant military faction in Japan.
