WORLD NAVAL PROBLEMS

British Efforts To Reach Agreement

London, Feb. 5,

The British delegation is ener getically trying to circumvent the Naval Conference difficulties, and this afternoon it consulted " the Italians in order to ascertain how far Italy supports the French de- mand to limit battleships to 27,- 500 tona.

The imminence of the French elections inspires French firmness on this matter but British circles do not think that France will.. press her demand to point of breaking up the Conference.

If Italy supports Francë, Amer- lca will be isolated. It is hoped that there may ultimately be a compromise, around the figure of 30,000 tons.

The question of German admis- zion to the Conference is also be- Ing tackled. Both Germany and· Russia are being kept informed of the progress of the Conference. — Beuter
