London, Oct. 10.
The deaths of King Alexander of Yugo-Slavia and M. Louis Barthou, Foreign Minister of France, is a severe blow to the maintenance of peace in Europe, declared Sir John Gilmour, Home Secretary, to-day, while speaking at Gravesend on the immediate problems of the Continent.
Sir John stressed the fact that His Majesty's Government was anything but warlike. But if, know- ing all the circumstances, the Government were impell- ed presently to make certain replacements in the country's armaments, it was entitled to recall that it had set an example to the world in disarmament since the Armistice in 1919.
Still with their eyes upon an ultimate disarmament of all powers, the Government would discuss next week with Japan the possibilities of revising the naval treaties, he added
The livelihood of many people in Britain depended upon the country's trade with China, he added, and it is essential that "we should have an adequate naval force in those waters," Sir John insisted-Renter.
