News of the World By Associated Pres{ ESTABLISHED 1870 U S. PROPOSES COMPROMISE L WITH ENGLAND ON CRUISER QUESTION; JA If Refused Unlimited Number of Undersea Craft, Tokyo Will De- mand An Increased Proportion. ‘America Willing to In- crease Maximum Ton- nage to 400,000 But Will Not Accept Inferior Position. Geneva, July 5 (P—The American delegation sukmitted new total ton- nage figures for cruisers at today's secret session of the experts of the tri-partite naval conference. Although official confirmation is lacking, it 1s understood that the United States, in a spirit of compro- mise and in a genuine attempt to meet Great Britain's expressed needs in cruisers, has suggested an increase in the maximum tonnage for Great Britain and _the United States so that the new total would be in the neighborhood of 400,000 ton! This Is 100,000 Tons More. This is 100,000 tons more than was indicated in the origlhal Ameri can maximum proposal, and rough- Iy correspends to the existing strength of the British cruiser fleet. The experts adjourned —almost immediately to permit the British and Japanese plenipotentiaries to udy the new proposal from a poli- tical viewpoint. g It is decmed doubiful” thaf fhe Americans would sign a treaty call- ing for a cruiser tonnage hl than their new maximum, as this, it is thought, would be regarded by public opinion as augmentation in- stead of limitation. The Submarine Item. Indications are that of Japanese Tequest for an unrestricted number of small submarincs will be refused, and that Japan must content her- self with a slightly increased suh marine tonnage. though within the maximum total suggested by the United States. Japan Wants Subs is making a last deter- mined stand at the tri-partite naval conference for the treaty right to possess an unlimited number of sub- marines under 600 tons displacement for the purposes of coastal defense. 1t she lose appe Japan will immediately ask, it 1 understood. for an increased propor. tion of authorized submarines under the projected Geneva treaty. The ociated press learns that this question has been one of the most difficult of the present negotia- tions and far-reaching in its rami- fications, for Great Britain has con- tested the Japanese demand for un- restricted small-sized submarines be- cause of the effect acceptance of this demand would have on France in subsequent negotiations with both France and Ital Admiral Viscount Saito, head of the Japanese delegation, has told the delegates at their secret session, that during the Russo-Japanese war before Admiral Rojestvensky's fleet met disaster in the Straits of Korea, swift Russian cruisers, based on Vladivostock, made successful raids on Japanese commerce. He said these cruisers traversed the sea of Japan, passed through the Straits o Tsugaru and then sped down th eastern coast of the mainland, even penetrating Tokyo bay where they created havoc and destruction among Japanese merchant ships. 3 Wants Protection It was to void such possible at tacks at the very heart of Japan in the future, that the Japanese asked the right to construct an unrestrict- ed number of tiny submarines which, like wasps, could string all hostile comers, the Japanese argument ran. Japan Japan asked this right by exception. | Great Britain, it is understood, how- ever, immediately saw that France, | separated from British shore by only a narrow channel, might utiliz the Japanese exception to demand & similar right for small French sub- marines—a_ demand which would be | gifticult to accord from the British viewpoint since France's proximity would be far diffcrent for England from Japan's isolation in the I t. The Indications today were that Japan would be given satisfaction by the accordance of a higher pe contage of submarines than is de- noted by Washington's ratio of 5-5 on capital ships.
