Halt Submarine Plans Amid New Parley Shifts Tone
The naval committee postponed its meeting as France and Japan resist the American compromise for submarine tonnage limits. Talks point to a world conference in 1928 or 1929 with broader participation to reassess armament curbs and future summits. France, Italy, and Japan show firm positions while the U S and Britain claim a major concession. Continued negotiations aim to align submarine fleets with a possible holiday and reassembly terms for a lasting treaty.
