Baron Lee Declares He Would
Weloomo Definite Move by
United States
"MOST IMPORTANT DUTY"
Ily the Associated Fresg
London, March 17, Haron Lee of
Farcbam, first lord of the admiralty.
discunMng naval matters. at a meeting
of naval architects yesterday referred
to the auction ot dlsarmamtnt. He
raid the only question was who would
Initiate the diflousblon, but on thin point
the Brltjuh Government would not
itand on ceremony. Tho Government,
he declared, welcomed tho hint thrown
out by President Hardlnr in Ills inntt
curat address and that it would meet
with cordial and helpful response here.
"I can only say," Iiflron Leo added,
"that if an invitation comes from
Washington I am prepared to put aside
jl other business in order to take part
in a business than which there can bo
nothing more pressing In the affairs of
this world."
Daron Lee said lie agreed with Mr.
Dcnby, the American secretary of the
navy, that Great Britain and America
could control the seas.
"Hut," he' added, "the question is
whether we havo the rinht of direction
with regard to our uavlcs when consult
ing each other. I think thiH govern
ment has n clear record. In the pres
ent estimates wc nave set an example or
reduction ana tanen hskb nnu are pre
pared to go far in a mutual agree;
ment.
"It is not enough to talk about blood
belnc thicker than water. What we
want is the plain horse sense charac
(eristic of both countries, trom my
Ions knowledge of America I have a
profound belief in the business of talk
ing and appealing to tho square deal.
I hold strongly that wc arc not engaged
in a game of bluff, but thnt we ought to
lav all of our cards on. tho table.
"Wo see the navnl committee of the
United States Senate Inying down tuc
principlo that America shall maintain
n navy nt least equal to thnt of any
other power. Thnt is a claim to equality
which tills country never has accepted
in the past and never would accept
save in connection (with the great i.ng-lMi-spcaking
nation which sprang from
our loins and ever holding a great place
In our regard and confidence.
The difference between our formula
and America's Is too slight to be made
the subject of controversy, still less of
friction or hostility."
(The foregoing paragraph Is a cor
rect quotation given out by Baron Lee
today. lie snys a London dispatch qf
lait night misquoted him as saying,
"That Is a claim that we should never
have expected," etc.)
"If ever a war should occur between
ns and my of our late allies, it will
be the fault of blind or criminal leading,
for which our statesmen, whether in
London, Washington, Tokio or" the cap
ital of any other naval power, would be
condemned and execrated in history if
they failed to avert such a tragedy."
ASSAIL COSTA RICA REGIME

(By A. i) Opponents of the Acosta
government of Costa Illca nre sharply

nouncing the government as "favoring

ment is cndcnvorlng to calm the storm
by conciliatory replies.
