London, June 18. To-day's Anglo-German naval agreement is detail- ed in correspondence exchanged between the British and German Governments.
The Government of Great Britain regards the agreement as of the greatest possible importance to future naval limitation plans, believing that it will facilitate the conclusion of a general agreement among all the naval powers of the world.
The German ratio of 35 per cent, of the aggregate of British tonnage, of the whole Empire, is a permanent figure and will not be affected by the construction of other powers.
re-
In the event of a violent upset of the international equilibrium, Germany may invite Britain to examine the new situation. Germany claims the right of parity in regard to submarines, but will not axcood 45 per cent, of Britain's total tonnage of under- son craft save in exceptional cir cumstances.
The alteration of allocation of tonnage among the various ship categories may be a matter of future discussions between the two Governments in the event of any change in the international naval situation.
Ribbentrop, Herr Joachim von chief German naval delegate, ex- pressing pleasure at the British Government's acceptance of the foregoing agreement, declares it to be a permanent and definite understanding to become effective immediately.

OF TREASURY
SEEK TO FORCE ACTION ON CONGRESS
Washington, June 18.
The unofficial Silver Bloc in the Senate is planning a campaign to force its policy upon the Administration. The entire group meets to-morrow to discuss a plan of action.
Senator Patrick McCarran says the group is dis- satisfied with the recent letter from Mr. Henry Morgen- thau, Secretary of the Treasury, in which he answered their questions as to the intentions of the Government with respect to its silver purchase programme.
The Silver Bloc interprets Mr. Morgenthau's reply to mean that the Treasury does not intend to go ahead with its planned programme, purchasing metal balance silver and gold stocks and eventually to increase silver's price to $1.29 per ounce.
