Although official information on the subject is lacking, they draw their chief substance from analysis of the pronouncements made this week by president Hoover and prime minister MacDonald and meagre comments in other quarters gener- ally well acquainted with such mat- ters. TS. One of the signs into which the clearest indication of such a confer- nce is being read is the action of dent Hoover in postponing the ruction of three cruisers which ¢ to have been laid down this E under the 15-cruiser program that became law last winter. Agree On Parity Stili another sign that vital foundations have been laid for a preliminary naval conference is vis- ualized on the lasis of secretary ftimson’s explanation of the prin- iple of parity agreed upon by Prime Minister MacDonald and Ambas- sador Dawes as an outcome of their discussions in England. That principle, the secretary an- nounced, means absolute equality of fighting strength in the two na- vies, applying not cnly to capital ships and aircraft carriers, for which it was established at the 1922 arms conference but all “cruisers and other categor' of vessels which constitut: those navies.” The question cf parity of ships of 10,000 tons or less has been a {-yublesome one since the 1922 con- ference in Washington. Figures available here show that England now has C1 cruisers ranging from 3,700 to 10,000 tons, is building six of 10,000 tons and two of 8,300, and has made appropriations for two of 8,300 tons. Japan Is Building Japan has 26 cruisers of 4,100 to 10,000 tons, is building six of 10,- 000 tons, and has appropriated for one more of 10,000 tons. In contrast, the figures for the _ United States show ‘only 10 cruis- ers.of 7,500 tons in commission, two cut of eight 10,000 ton ships pro- vided for under the act of 1924—the Pensacola and Salt Lake City— launched and nearly completed, and 15 more of the 10,000-ton type provided for in ihe three-year pro- gram which became law last winter. While the American government has provided for new cruiser ton- nage amounting to 350,000 tons, ap- rropriations have been made for a relatively small proportion of that authorized construction. The British, on the other hand, have actual ap- propriations for 397,140 ton:, and the Japanese for 213,955. In addition to cruisers, the classes of ships to which the British-Ameri- can parity principle was Hot applied in the 1922 agreement include de- stroyers, submarines and other aux- iliary craft and a number of mem- bers of congress have frequently expressed the view that all must be brought within a limitation pro- am if it is to be more fully ef- fective.
