NAVAL PARITY
FRANCE’S OFFER TO ITALY ONLY IN THE MEDITERRANEAN. LONDON, March 21. (Received March 21, at 11.50 p.m.) The Daily Telegraph’s diplomatic writer says: “ For the fourth time since the London Naval Conference in 1030 France and Italy are endeavouring to devise a formula to settle the naval problem. France proposes to offer parity, but only in the Mediterranean; and not in the aggregate tonnage of the fleets. France claims the right to keep special squadrons for the protection of the Pacific and other remote possessions, and squadrons in the Atlantic and the North Sea at least equal to those Germany is entitled to under the Versailles Treaty.
