WASHINGTON, May 23,

President Hoover has announced that unless the consideration of the

London Naval Limitation Treaty is "completed during the present session of Congress, he intends to call a special session.

This news came as a complete surprise, for, although the Senate had anticipated "a Vote on the treaty within the limits of the re- gular conclusion that postponement, if any were necessary, would be until the short session" opening next December.

The first Test match between Eng land and Australia will be started at Nottingham on Friday, June 13, but already there is a feeling throughout the country that the captain of the England side should be selected and his name announced.

It is understood that Chapman is most likely to receive the invita tion.

Chapman and Carr have hnd con- siderable experience of Test cricket, and on that account it is now as sumed that the captaincy lies be tween them.

There have been proposals that tradition should be forgotten, and professional, such as Hobbs or Woolley or Sutcliffe, appointed, but there is not even a remate prospect that this view will be accepted

Capt. Adolphus Andrews said that in a battle, he would prefer America's eight eight-inch cruisers and 10 six-inch cruisers to the ships allocated to England."

Rear-Admiral George C. Day said that Japanese parity in the matter of submarines would constitute” 'n serious disadvantage to the United States.

No Extra Concession. Commander H. C. Train said that the new Japanese naval ratio would be disadvantageous to the United States and also to the general cause of naval limitation.

He said that the American dele- gation in London had maintained its atand for a 3-5-3 ratio until February-5.

In reply to questions, Commander Train said that the United States had, at the Washington Conference of 1921, surrendered the right to fortify the Philippines in return for Japan's acceptance of the prin ciple of a 5-5-3 ratio. The United States had not, at London, obtain ed any

additional concession in return for increasing the Japanese ratio.

Rear-Admiral H. H. Hough said that he felt that America had aban- doned the right to "build the ships best fitted to her needs, and that we have lent aarscives to a type unfitted to our requirements.

Banquet to Mr. Castle.

Toxro, May 24. “

A farewell banquet in honour of Mr. William "Castle, the American Ambassador, who is shortly leaving for home, was held under the aus pices of the American-Japan So- ciety. Baron Shidahara, the Foreign Minister, and other leading mem- bers of the Cabinet, Prince Toku: gawa, the Speaker of the House of Peers and the President of the American-Japan Club, and other prominent persona attended the function:

"

Addressing the distinguished gathering, Mr. Castle made a very notable speech regarding Japanese- American relationships arising out of the London Naval Conference. The cutline of the American Am- baseador's speech is as follows: --

"The London Naval Conference has not only succeeded in averting unnecessary naval warship construc- tion and rivalry but has accom- plished amore important thing, namely the creating of a spirit of mutual confidence among the three greatest naval powers of the world.,

Only Minor Differences. "In the past, there seem to bave been frequent differences in policy between Japan and America, but these are "miser differences of methods not principle, And, we must note also that such differences of method came primarily from the difference in national traits between Japanese and Americana,

America and Japan have enter tained a great deal of mutual mis- understanding in the past. For, in- stance, Japan has regarded America as the country which has always been attempting to impair Japan's influence in the Far East, while Suspax, America has entertained an idea that Japan has been, posseaged of a vicious ambition in the Orient.

On the other hand, we want to make clear and emphasize that America, like her great neighbour nation across the Pacific, is also the sincero protector of the rights and interests of various nationa in this part of the world,"
