Britain Clings to Naval Limits Despite Abolition Stance
In London Monday First Lord of the Admiralty Bolton-Macall stated that it was unfortunately necessary to abandon the principle of restraint to seek a new naval limitation agreement. Lord Londonderry echoed that no change in government policy would end the goal of maintaining a system of limits linked to Washington treaty. The aim of recent talks with Japan and the United States was to avoid a formal alliance while preserving guarantees against a resumed unrestricted naval buildup.

New NSW plan to fund technical education via local rates
The government proposed a bold scheme dividing control of technical education from the Education Department. Two new councils for the metropolitan and Newcastle areas would finance schemes by levying a tax on unimproved land value. About thirty members from employers, local councils, and education bodies would oversee colleges, examinations, and related training, with rates expected to raise £44,702 in the metropolitan area and £4,000 in Newcastle. The plan awaits cabinet decisions and further consultations before Parliament.
