Since the navai rearmament programme began in earnest there has been very little lapse of time between the authorisation of ships by Parliament and the placing of the orders for their construction. The two cruisers of the improved Southampton class, which were authorised at the same time as the first three of the Dido class ships, were ordered in August last. It is believed that the delay in placing orders for these five crui- sers is due to the designs not hav ing been ready. The ships are to be of a new class of about 5,000 tons displacement. They will be. therefore, very much smaller than the cruisers being built for foreign navies, but only about 200 tons smaller than the chips of the Arethusa class.
