Senate vote narrows path to five power naval pact
Senate leaders report only two senators favor a consultative pact with Europe while others doubt a five power agreement can be reached. House Naval Affairs chief Britten urges a three power treaty with Britain and Japan, offering a four year battle ship holiday and large savings. Talks in London aim to test Britain’s good faith as Stimson weighs a tentative three power framework with France’s actions under review. In San Francisco, a feature quotes Bernard Shaw praising the city’s gold era origins and compares it to other western towns.
