ASSURANCES OP’ LEADING AUTHORITY United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph— Copyright (Received May 23, 7 p.m.) . LONDON, May 23. Mr H. C. By water, the naval authority, writing in “The Daily Telegraph” reveals that the Government, in view of the possible breakdown of the Disarmament Conference, has been quietly reviewing its naval resources besides aviation. “Well informed circles discount the suggestion that a sudden emergency would catch the Navy napping,” says My Bywater. “Plans for swift concentration have been prepared to the last detail. There is already a tendency to speed up construction, and the question of personnel is constantly under review.”
