PAGE TEI THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 193C PARITY FIGURES ARE ANNOUNCED AT CONFERENCE Tol. Stimson Lave Down Plan for British and : U.S. Navies. London, Feb. 8.~Last evening Col imson, head of the Unmted States delegation, handed to the newspaper- wmen a statement outlining the scope "of a naval agreement which thé Am- erican delegation hopes to see achie- ved. The statement was understood to have been issued with Premier MacDonald's knowledge, and was as follows. The following suggestions wre nade: . + "First, with Britain, immediate par- ity in every class of ship in the navy. The gross. tonnage of these two fleets is substantially 1,200,000 tons a- piéce, "Negotiations between President tloover and Prime Minister MacDon dd last Summer practically reduced the discussion of parity between them to the comparatively insignificant dit- ference in their respective cruiser class tonnage of 24,000 tons. oh "We propose to settle this differ- ence as follows: Under our sugges- tien, the actual tonnage difference between the two cruiser fleets will y 12,000. ; ger eral crs js eight-inch guns Great Britain have 15 and the United States rrmed wit will 18, an advantage to the latter of 30,000] tons. a Se "Of the smaller cruisers armed with six-inch guns, Great Britain will have an advantage of 42,000 tons.

Bassett's fowith] yond this, in order to insuresexast equality of opportunity, the United States makes the suggestion that each country will have the option of duplicating exactly the cruiser fleet of the other. "Thus Great Britain would have the option by reducing its number of small cruisers to increase its large cruisers from 15 to 18, so as to give it a total tonnage of 327,000 tons, the exact amount of tonnage which the United States now asks, "On the other hand, the United States would have the option, by re- ducing its large cruisers from 18 to 15, to increase the number of its small cruisers so as to give it a to- tal cruiser tonnage of 339,000 tons, the exact amount of tonmage which the British now ask. ' "In battleships, we suggest by the rediction in numbers on both sides to equalize our two fleets in 1931 in- stead of 1942. At present the Brit- ish = battleship fleet contains two more vessels than ours. "In destroyers and aircraft carriers we suggest equality of tonnage, and in submarines' the lowest tonnage possible. "Onr suggestion to the Japanese delegation would produce an 'overall' relation satisfactory to us and, we hope, to them. In conformity with our relations in the past, it is not ba- j sed, upon the same ratio. in every class of ships." SOLINA SUSTAINS | LOSS IN DEATH OF | JAS.

Practically all Mr. McKessock's teaching 'life 'was spent in the little school at Solina where he was the whole staff. On the twenty-fitth anniversary of his cn: gagement, which was suitably cele- brated the parents of his little charges urged that he remain, 3s they put it for another quarter of a century, and this he was quite pre- pared to do, but illyess and death ended this arrangement. Mr. McKessock was the 'Canadian embodiment of the Scots dominie, whose fame has spread to every clime He farmed a bit of land near the school and this kept his pupils keey- ly interested in agriculture as a life- work. He read widely and thought deeply along many lines, and he bpd his 'own methods of teaching. de wotld not force 'his younger pupils to study arithmetic, leaving that for later: years, but. it is on record. that none of his boys or girls failed iu that subject at their entrance cxamn- inations; and he did not want any children under 7 years old. Mr, Mec- Kessock could have had many more mportant posts, from the point of a successful career, than the little school at Solina, but he decided to do his work in this less public man- ner, and at the close of his useful life he is mourned as a good citizen, a faithful friend and a well-beloved teacher."
