$166,000000 NAVY PLAN WINS JAPAN Compromise Covm Six . Years of London Treaty. Goes to Cabinet. By the Assoclated Press. n.)xnmxlo ing $75,000000 ven. (ebout m totaling yen I3 000,000) and covering the six-year tem of the London naval treaty has | though taken definite form as the result of & compromise between Baron Kiyokasu Abo, minister of the navy, and Junno- suke Inouye, minister of finance. The compromise of mnm Abo and Inouye will be submitted to the cabinet tomorrow and its adoption was consid- ered probable. It was reached after extended discussions aimed to reconcile the divergent claims of their ntp.cflu ministries. Aviation to Be Increased. The program includes a 70 per cent increase of the navy's aviation arm and 50,000,000 yen for modernization of capital ships. The program is designed to give Japan the maximum tonnage and effi- lows: Fiist, 218,000,000 yen for new warship construction, including 160,000, 000 yen for vessels limited by the Lon- don treaty and 58,000,000 yen for naval aviation expansion: second, 90,000,000 yen for the addition of 12 new air squadrons to the present strength of 17 squadrons, including 50,000,000 yen for maintenance; third, 65,000,000 yen for modernization of existing warship strength, including 50,000,000 yen for modernization of capital ships. Civil Element Gains. ‘The compromise indicates the civilian element of the government was largely successful in its stand against the navy’s larger claims. It was estimated the London treaty has relieved Japan of the necessity of building naval tonnage costing 508,000,~ 000 yen (about $254.000,000). The navy claimed most of this sum should be devoted to the new six-year program, while the civilian members of the eabi- net insisted at least one-third should be devoted to reduction of taxes. ‘The compromise means about 135 000,000 yen will be avallable for tax reduction—10,000,000 yen in 1931 and 25,000,000 yen for each of the next five years.
