Dawes To Extend New Naval Plan To Great Britain
Washington June 3 Negotiations for a moral understanding between the United States and Great Britain will be speeded up as soon as Charles G Dawes arrives in London to assume his ambassadorship. It is probable that Dawes first major task in London will be presenting the new plan for measuring the relative strength of the American and British navies. The plan is called a new yardstick though its details remain undisclosed. The understanding uses a different method from Geneva talks and could alter naval assessments. Rumblings in Congress today centered on opposition to the 15 cruiser program and President Hoover’s proposal to scrap these cruisers. The law allowed suspension of building if an international agreement was reached.
