ANTICIPATED ANSWERS
•(Received 28th February, noon.)
LONDON, 27th Feb. The Press Association understands that the British reply to President Coolidge's proposals for a conference on naval limitation will be presented to Washington to-morrow, when Sir Austen Chamberlain will make a statement in the House of Commons. The "Daily Herald's" diplomatic correspondent says that the Dominions' replies are almost unanimously unfavourable to any limitation of Britain's cruiser strength. Canada also has considered President Coolidge's plan sympathetically, but Britain, not desiring to embarrass the President by a negative reply, will try to obtain the Dominions' assent to.a conference between Britain, the United States, and Japan with the agenda carefully limited in order to exclude tho possibility of a reduction of the present cruiser strength. • ' • \ , -
