; A SENSIHLE SUGGKSTION
. The proposals , of Ambassador Hugh Gibson at Geneva re
lative to naval armament reduction have introduced a wel
come note of common sense into the hopelessly tangled situa
tion there, and giv6 new hope to a world that is increasingly
&ick of paying huge sums in preparation for a war that may
never come. ' . 'r, ' '
Mr. Gibson whoso proposals, of course, represent Presi
dent , Hbover's views cut straight through the tangle and
brough'thc whole question to a level whore, it;can bo tackled
in a straightforward manner. ' ' ' ! '
To begin with, ho pointed out that all the great powers,
througrj their" endorsement of the Kcllogg-Briand treaty,
havo pledged themselves not to resort to-aggrcssivo wars.
Consequently, he says, the time has come for all nations
to get over their eternal distrust of one another, and take
it tor grunted that they will be able to keep the peace hence
forward. -. ?
In his concrete proposals he struck u similarly sensible vein.
The British havo insisted that they need a vast number of
small cruisers to defend their commerce and outlying posses
sions. The French have demanded a great fleet of destroyers
and submarines to protect their possessions in Africa. The
Americans have culled for a ixv.verful group of large cruisers,
capable of steaming long distances.
' ';he British and Americans, heretofore, have called for
naval limitation "by categories" by classes of ships. The
French have demanded that total naval tonnage bo limited,
with each nation five to build as it chooses within those
limits. Mr. GiUson proposes that the two plans be combined.
Limit the total tonnage, be says, and also limit the tonnage
by . categoiies but make the limits elastic so that each
nation can to a certain extent build lor its own needs.
Tho schemes is eminently sensible, and has won Europe's
applause. It encourages the hoH5 that genuine naval reduc
tion can be had. .
