Japan has no intention of building a flect which will constitute a challenge to other naval powers, nor does she want a naval race. Japan, declared Mr. Saito, the Japanese Ambassador to Washington, speaking of the Washington Treaty termination, desires drastic re- ductions of existing naval strength.
Japan would like, he said, the setting of a common upper limit to warship building, instead of a ratio system, "which militates against a sense of national security.”.
Instead of a treatyless era, Japan desires a rational international agreement, said the Ambassador.
Mr. Saito reiterated the Japan-
ese offer to scrap half of hur Meet the British Empire and the United States would followi

"We are approaching a most critical stage in world history and the most far-reaching consequences will turn on the policy the British Government pursues in the Far East during the next three to six months," declared Lord Lothian, speaking in the House of Lords to-day..
"There is no longer any doubt that one party of the Washington Treaty intends to denounce it before the end of the year.
"If Britain stands for the principles of the treaty she will have behind her the United States of America, though I would much like to ask how far America intends to go to make these principles effective.
