Japan Denies Bywater Submarine and Cruiser Charges
Tokyo officials rebut statements by British naval expert Hector C Bywater claiming Japanese submarines of 3,000 tons and cruisers of 7,000 to 10,000 tons with heavy armament. Commander Terajima says construction includes 7,000 and 10,000 ton cruisers, but with lighter weapons, and asserts submarines of 1,400 tons remain standard. Japan insists its naval program follows Washington Treaty limits and was slowed by 1923 earthquake but is now proceeding within agreed terms.
