LONDON,
Sept.
16:
Groat
Bri-tain
desires
from
the
forthcoming
naval
rilnrmampnt
npirntlatlnn.i
at
Washington
between
Premier
Macdonald
and
President
Hoover
that
her
total
cruiser
strength
of
50
units
will
be
divided
Into
two
categories,
namely
those
of
eight
inch
guns
and
those
of
six-inch
guns,
it
was
authoratlvely
stated
this
evening.
She
maintains
that
her
requirements
compel
her
to
divide
her
50
cruisers
Into
15
each
with
eight-inch
guns
and
35
each
with
slx-lnch
guns,
making
total
tonnage
of
339,000.
The
United
States
proposal
is
for
21
eight-Inch
gun
cruisers
and
15
slx-lnch
gun
cruisers,
totalling
315,000
torts.
The
margin
of
dispute
is
therefore
at
present
three
eight-Inch
gun
cruisers
and
tonnage
of
15,000
as
Britain
suggests
that
the
United
States
tonnage
should
be
300.000.
It
was
pointed
out
by
a
spokesman
close
to
the
Prime
Minister
that
British
security
was
considered
absolutely
guaranteed
under
negotiations
thus
far.
