There is to be no question of as-
cepting any ship-to-ship inferior- Ity in future naval construction. It is even possible that, if other na- tions endeavour to effect increases in gun calibre, Great Britain may consider building ships with arma- ment so powerful that it could not be exceeded.
This does not mean that the two battleships to be laid down early in the New Year are to

Under the terms of the London Naval Treaty of last March-which has so far been ratified only by the United States-the 'gun calibre of capital ships is limited to 14 inches if Japan agrees to this limi- tation before Apr 1 next year,
Some months ago Japan was asked whether she would subscribe to the Treaty, and her answer was "No." This was taken by the United States to, mean that Japan had no intention of adhering to the limit of 14 inches for the gun calibre of future capital ships, and

The first snows of autumn were

FUTURE TONNAGE LIMIT · Under modern condition■ air- craft spotting has gone far to warda eliminating the effect of maximum visibility upon effective range. It is widely acknowledged that the ability to hit with heavy metal at long range is all-impor- tant in naval warfare. These fac- tore are largely dependent upon the calibre of the gun.
But if the maximum gun calibre for. battleships of the future in- creases, the size of the ships must also increase in order to enable suficient armour and steaming qualities to be incorporated. Thus the tonnage limit of 35,000 tons laid down in the naval Treaty will become inoperative.
The elimination of the Treaty limits for gun power and tonnage In future battleships will not en- tail the breaking of the Treaty by any Power, for Japan and Italy have not signed, and the adher- ence of signatory Powers is so gʊV- erned by safeguarding clauses that action by any of the non-signatory Powers: will lead to automatic escape by the signatory Powers from the limitations.
