LONDON NOTES A CHANCE TO SPEAK UP
By The Air Mail
(From &' Correspondent)
London, Mar. 16.
Sir John Simon, I hear, is doubt- rul whether both he and Mr. Eden ought to undertake the "full round of promised visits to Berlin, Mos- cow and Warsaw.
Probably he feels that it would be unwise for him to be away from "London for so long.

FIFTH OFFICER OF STATE Should it be decided that Mr. Edén shall make the journey to Moscow alone, M. Stalin and M. Litvinoff will have no cause to feel in any way slighted by the absence of the Foreign Secretary.
The Lord' Privy Seal ranks. fifth among the great officers of State. He takes precedence next after the Lord President of the Council before all the Dukes and, of course, the Secretaries of State.
Mr. Eden's predecessors in this office (frst created in the reign of Edward III.) include Mr, Glad- stone, Lord Salisbury. Lord Cecil, Sir Austen Chamberlain, and many other leading statesmen.
A visit from the Lord Privy Seal would thus be fully on a par with
deviation from the London Treaty, of which the late Labour
countries
Government had been the authors. About half the increase was caused automatically by the increasing cost of repairing elderly ships, of the non-effective services, and of replacement ships laid down in recent years. The other half was due to the necessity of modernizing capital ships as other had already done, and of making good deficiencies, in equipment already tolerated too long. About £530,000 would be spent on adding 19 new machines to the Fleet Air Arm and in equipping some of the existing nights with more modern machines. The Government's pro- gramme as a whole meant that when the Treaties expired at the end of 1936 we should have built fully up to the replacement top- nage allowed for cruisers, and very nearly to the tonnage allowed for
a visit from any other British Min-submarines, but-of set policy-not up to the tonnage allowed, for
