A British spokesman said today that both the American and Jap anese e.xperlH appear to have mis understood the British figures and that an agreement could bo reach ed if every one would realize that Great Britain does not intend to Include projected building pro grams In her cruiser figures but only ships actually appropriated for. Iaiaii Takes Stand Indications now exist that tho British have been impressed with the Japanese advocacy -of Ameri can move for a low cruiser limita tion. In her proposal submitted at yesterday's prlvute meeting Jap an adhered to a system of Unking cruisers and destroyers and ts un derstood to have announced that she will accept a total tonnage of 30(1,000 for all auxiliary surfaco craft. This Japanese estimate, la conditional upon an agreement that Hut rutted States and Great Britain would accept Tor them selves 4fo,ot)u tons each of cruis ers and deulroyers combined. Japan also is understood to have f reitiefted 70,000 tons of Buhmar- lues, which Is some lfi.000 tons in excess oi tho maximum American suggest Ion for submarines to bn allocated to Japan. This propositi would mean that Japan Is support ing the American figures for sur faco craft, hut wants somo , pre ferential proposition regarding siibma lines. KceciN n-5-3 lintio TJm original American proposal was that tho combined tonnago of ,both the cruiser and destroyer classes should not exceed 650.000 tons at any tlmo for tho United States and Great Britain and thai Japan should not exceed 330,000 tons. Japan now proposed 300,000 tons for herself, which on tho basis of 4fU,00O tons for the Uni ted States and Great Britain would give her a position somewhat tm proved over tho 6-5-3 ratio fixed ut Wualilngton for capital ships.
