Exchange of Ships Again Being Considered. N.Z. SINGAPORE PAYMENT. (Received 0.30 a.m.) LONDON, March 9. The Navy Estimates were presented by Sir Bolton Eyres-Monsell, First Lord of the Admiralty. They amount to £53,570,000, which is £3,093,000 above those of last year. New Zealand's contributions to the Singapore Base are £72,000.

He hopes shortly to renew the interchange of ships of the Royal and Australian navies, which was suspended for financial reasons.
