Lord Lloyd, "who presided,, in proposing a resolution, which was agreed to, calling on the Govern- ment "to build to the fullest extent up to the tonnage allowed by the Naval Treaty," spoke of the de- plorable inadequacy of the 'cruiser, destroyer and submarine tonnage. which we shall possess in 1936.
At the present rate of build- ing," he declared, "we shall not have 30 effective cruisers in four years' time. In the war we had some 400 destroyers, in four years' time we shall not have as many as 75. Taking submarines which are building and projected to-day, we shall have only 66 at the end of the Treaty period, while Japan will have 71, Italy will have 70. France will have 110, and the United States of America 111. **
Grave Prejudice to Naval Strength.
Rugby, Yesterday. The Parliament Secretary to the Admiralty, Mr. Charles Ammon, during his reply to a deputation from the Committee of the "back to the coal movement." received at the. Admiralty to-day, declared that if the Navy were to revert to coal it would mean accepting a handicap in design which would be a most serious setback and could not now be undertaken without prejudice to the strength of the fleet and its operational efficiency.- British Wireless Service.
