Britain Demands Expanded Cruisers for Conference
Geneva July 2. Great uneasiness in American and Japanese circles over the tripartite naval conference due to Britain’s demand for 15 10,000 ton cruisers and at least 60 ships of 7,500 tons. Total tonnage would reach 600,000, far above the American proposal by 300,000. The figures are regarded as stupendous and could scuttle a limitation treaty unless reduced. Observers fear the British plan would mislead public opinion and heighten tensions.

Ambassadors fear a deadlock could push the issue to 1931 or force compromises on destroyers and submarines. Authorities expect a compromise below 400000 tons to satisfy the United States.
