It is suggested that the first match should be held in 1935, and that it should be sailed with 12-metre yachts. The trophy would be called the Inter Nations Twelve-Metre Cup," would be open for competition by any | country. It is announcel that America is already building vesselk from which to select its representa- [tive.
In this country the 12-metre class Is strong, and the proposal is likely to be warmly received. But there does not appear ny sufficient reason why the first content should be held in American waters, as
