Great Britain wants the United
States and Japan to assume re,
sponSibility for a bigger British
navy.
This was seen here today as
the motive behind the overture
which the British government has
made both to this country and
Japan concerning a proposed in
crease in British destroyer and
curiser strength.
Britain has requested an express
sion Of views from this Govern
ment and Japan on two moves
which the British admiralty wishes
to make to meet a navalbuilding
threat from Italy and Germany in
smaller type ships.
Opposed to Scrapping
The first suggestion is that the
three SignatorieS of the expiring
London naval treaty of 1880, the
United States, Japan and Britain,
keep the destroyers which are sup
posed to be scrapped before the
end of this year. Britain has told
this Government it has 10000 tons
Of destroyers due to be strapped,
and its does not want to scrap
them.
1t also wants to keep four 10000
ton cruisers, which it wants to re-
place with modern ships without
Scrapping them.
Under the London treaty it may
take both these steps by invoking
the so-called escalator clause. This
clause provides that IF the ma
tional security of any contracting
party is materially affected" by
new construction by a nonSigna-
tory power, the high contrating
party may make whatever increase
It considers necessary, providing it
first notifies the other SignatorieS.
The others then are free to do like
wise.
Agreement Likely
However, by invoking the esca-
1ator clause alone, Britain would
assume full responsibility for
starting the world on the way
to bigger navies.
On the other hand, If it gets
this country and Japan to agree
jointly to invoke the escalator
clause, it can escape full respon-
sibility for bigger navies.
In this connection Britain pos
sesses trump card over the
United States. The American
Navy possesses some 10000 excess
tons of deStroyers which it is
reluctant to scrap. Therefore, it
is difficult for this Government
to be other than favorably dis
posed toward the British sugges-
ton.
Although reluctant to assume
any responsibility for exceeding
these limits, the indications were
this Government would give way
to the British suggestion in view
Of the peculiar circumstances.
