Their respective navies should be maintained at the lowest levol compatible with national security, character to warrant auspicion of and should never be of a size or aggressive intent.
Future construction should be kept at the minimun.
The methods and principles of limitation set down by the Wash- ington Treaty should be extended to all categories of combatant ves- sela of the three Powers.
No Threat Intended.
Mr. Gibson said that the United States had no intention of main- taining force as a threat to any Power, and did not desire to initiate a competitive programme, The American suggestions "were based on the following considera- tions; that the ratio and prin- ciples of the Washington Treaty should be applied to cruisers, des- troyers and submarines, and any agreement by the three Powers to limit the building of auxiliary vessels should be coterminous with the Washington Treaty, ind contain a provision respecting re- vision in the event of an extensive building programme by a Power not a party to the agreement.
For the purpose of future limi- tation the auxiliaries should be divided into four categories, three of which, namely cruisers, den- troyers, and submarines, should be subject to limitation, with a fourth glass of regligent batant value not subject to limita- tion.
com-
The cruiser class should include surfacé cómbatant vessels of 3,000 to 10,000 tons; the destroyer class to include all surface combatant vessels of 600 to 3,000 tons of a speed above 17 knots.
