NAVAL LIMITATION
SECOND TRIPARTITE CONFERENCE SUGGESTED RECOMMENDATION OF ADMIRAL SAITO TO JAPANESE GOVERNMENT BRITAIN’S MAJOR PROPOSALS FAVOURED By Telegraph.—Press Association.—Copyright. (Rec. October 6, .7 p.m.) London, Octobeb 6. The Tokio correspondent of “The Times” states that Admiral Saito confirmed a statement that he had recommended the Government to propose the holding,of a second tri-partite naval conference, but he was unaware whether Japan would act on the recommendation. He added that any conference would be useful, even if it were two years before the Washington Treaty Powers meet in 1931, because an earlier agreement is required, if progress is to be made with Britain’s major proposals regarding the size of battleships, which appealed to Japan on the ground of economy.—“ The Times.” [Admiral Viscount Saito was Japan’s chief delegate at the three-Power Arms Conference at Geneva.]
