REDUCTION OF NAVY.
QUESTION OF INITIATIVE. Press Assn.—By Tel. —Copyright. London, May 15. The cabled announcement of the New Zealand Defence Minister’s attitude on Mr Lee’s speech raises the question of iniative. The Admiralty has hitherto been respectful to the Dominion susceptibilities and hesitates to make the first move, hoping the Dominions would take the initiative. It is now considered likely the following of the New Zealand hint. A memorandum will be drawn up setting out the requirements, following the Washington Conference.
This is naturally most confidential and will doubtles receive the Premier’s attention ufter his return.
