MODEL XISIXG OUR CRUISERS. United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. LON DO X, janu ary 18. The Times’ naval writer says that the arrangement made in 1924 to replace H.M.S. Dunedin and Diomede by cruisers of the Leander class will begin to become effective when H.M.S. Achilles is shortly commissioned as flagship in succession to H.M.S. Dunedin. A list of officers required for volunteer service on loan to Xew* Zealand is published in Fleet Orders today. The writer points out that Xew Zealand is obtaining faster, stronger, and more modern ships. H.M.S. Achilles will carry the first shipborne aircraft so far attached to the Xew Zealand Division.
