LONDON, Nov. '26.— The 'Daily Mail'
states this morning:— 'The Japanese
Press reports that on December 10 Japan
will, denounce , jthe ?Washington' Naval
xxeacy.Bucn acaon neea cause no. excite-
ment here. The reason is that the Treaty
fixes a ratio of -naval strength which
Japan -contends places her in a position
of 'humiliating inferiority. Most people in
Britain agree that 'the Japanese' claim for
equality is not unreasonable. It is of very
slight importance- to Britain how many
warships A Japan- builds. British; policy
should be confined to the defence of
British interests west of Singapore, avoid
ing entanglement in enterprises hostile
to Japan in Manchukuo and elsewhere.
Japan's growing influence will end the era
of anarchy and. civil war in China.'
