Washington, Nov. 19.

It is learned on good authority that officials of the State Department have re-examined the United States' Far Eastern policy, including the American attitude towards the Philippine Islands' independence, as a result of the British inquiries regarding America's plan of ac tion in the event of Japan renouncing the. Washington and London naval treaties.

It is indicated that the United States is considering the.

PARIS PROPOSES HUGE DEFENCE BUDGET

Paris, Nov. 19.

The French War Department to-day makes the startling statement that Germany, in 1935, will have organised a mightier army and will have built up an altogether more powerful war organisation, than she had in 1914.

In a few months, says the departmental report on the French War budget, Germany will be stronger on land than she was at the outbreak of the Great War.

SEVENTEEN DIE

The War Department budget asks for credits of 5,689,000,000 francs, compared with 5,946,000,000 last year, not including the cost of frontier fortification. The report goes on assert that.20 Germany in 1936 will be able to: field 5,000,000 men within a few days of the order of mobilisation. The French War Department estimates that the total of Ger- many's standing army L the present time
