EARLIER TELEGRAMS.
SINGAPORE NAVAL BASE.
London, July 12.
In the House of Lords, in proposing a resolution expressing the opinion of the House that the contemplated naval and air expenditures were disproportionate, Lord Wimbourne criticised the Singapore scheme.
Lord Linlithgow, who warmly championed it as by far the" cheapest way of rendering British sea-power effective in the Far Fast, remarked that the British Parliament and country would learn with the liveliest sense of gratitude and pride of the gift from the Government of the, Straits Settlements. Even assuming that the battleship became obsolete, neroplanes would need a base In the Far East,
7
Lord Haldane said that it was very nice to be able to dominate the Pacific, but command of the air was more urgent than naval power.
'Lord Salisbury, replying, said that it was part of our funda- mental obligation to provide the defence of all our Dominions. He incidentally expressed the profound satisfaction of the Govern ment that France was taking the necessary steps to ratify the Washington Agreement.
Earl Grey
he said that
thought that it ought to be quite frankly admitted that the contingency the Govern ment had in view was the possibility of war in the future! however remote that future might be, with Japan. He trusted the memory of the Anglo-Japanese alliance would remain in both countries and would make conflict exceedingly unlikely. Both countries were members of the League of Nations and could not. go to war on each other without violating their pledged" word in signing that covenant. The Government was perfectly persuaded that the Singapore dock was a better way of protecting Aus tralia and New Zealand than by naval bases in those countries themselves.
In the unlikely contingency that an Anglo-Japanese condict was humanly possible it was absolutely certain that it would be a racial conflict wherein the United States would be involved on the same side, he was not at all clear that to spend money on the Singapore deck would be the best way to prepare for that con- tingency, or that it was not going to make matters worse. He suggested that it was calculated to evoke a corresponding expendi-. ture on the part of other powers which would lead to further Increases and thus defeat, in the long run, the very objects which the Washington agreements were designed to secure.
He agreed that there was a necessity for an increased air expenditure, but referred in grave terms" to the beginning of com- petition in armaments with France. If European competition: In armaments proceeded it would lead to another war in which all would go down together. He urged the making of the League of
Nations more of a reality.
Lord Salisbury, replying to Earl Grey, declared there was no suggestion whatever so far as he knew, from any government calling in question either the letter or the spirit of the Washington agreement relative to Singapore. The motion was defeated with- out division,
BRITISH · EMPIRE EXHIBITION.
London, July 12.
The report of the Board of the British Empire Exhibition for the month of June recordă steady progress, and confidently forecasts that everything will now work harmoniously to the con-". clusion of the great task of making the exhibition a complete. success. It speaks of the gratifying». evidence of progress and enthusiasm both at home and in the dominions and colonies. The space available to exhibitors is almost completely taken up.. As a result of conferences with the police it can be confidently antici pated that there will be no reasonable ground for criticism of the traffle arrangements in future, Expenditure up to the 21st May was $1,140,000 as compared with. an estimated expenditure of £1,236,000.
PORT ARTHUR TRAITOR IN TROUBLE. · ·
Berne, July 12.
M. Tilinsky, whose account of alleged payments in bonds by the Japanese Government for services which it is alleged led to the fall of Port Arthur, attracted much attention some months ago, appeared before, the local tribunal charged with fraud in Berne and Zurich, involving two hundred thousand. france... M. Tilinsky, in bis defence, refers to the Port Arthur affair and maintains that he has a claim of Yen. 190,000,000 against the Japanese Govern- ment on account of bonds given in payment for services rendered by furnishing plans of the minefields defending the fortress.
PROTECTION OF FOREIGNERS IN CHINA."
London, July 12.
With reference to the prospects of Anglo-American agreement regarding better protection of foreigners in China, the Daily Telegraph's diplomatic correspondent learns that an intimation has reached London that, subject to certain reservations on points of detail and a general proviso safeguarding the principle of Chinese sovereignty, the views of Washington approximate very closely to
those held in London.
