BRITAIN'S AIR FORCE

Programme Of Expansion

London, July 30.

The House of Commons to-night debated the Government's provi- sional programme for increasing, during the next five years, the Royal Air Force by 41 squadrons.

In describing the circumstances

the which led

Government to adopt this course, Mr. Baldwin sald questions' of Imperial Defence and of disarmament had occupied the mind of the. Government for many years past, but never had a survey of these problems been con- ducted under conditions of great- er difficulty and more constant change than in the last twelve months.

The difficulty of working for a Disarmament Convention had been increased not only by the absence of Germany from inter- national coúhsels, but by the fact there had seemed throughout the year little probability of getting Germany in the near future loin once more in these discuss *sions."

to

Uneasiness in Europe. Moreover, there had been events 1 various parts of Europe creat- ing a greater sense of uneasiness than had hitherto been experien- ced. There was a spirit abroad in parts of Europe, which, if it could not be curbed, might

some day make the task on which their thoughts were centred impossible of achievement,

-

It was. In these circumstances that they had seen in the major ity of nations working on this question of disarmament a move towards increasing their arma- ments rather than to decrease them.

The future was uncertain. They could not tell yet whether success would attend the formation of the Eastern Locarno agreement, and this uncertainty must have its reactions on the work at Geneva. "Another factor which must exercise an important influence on the whole question was the success of

Thus it will be seen that the showing of this 1874 term was very good, even allowing for the fact that what may be called the for- tune of the Service rtin rather in its favour. The members were fleutenants in the early eighties, when the movement for the ex- pansion of the Fleet first started; commanders in the nineties and captains from 1886 onwards. The bulk of them were unaffected by post-War retrenchment.
