Known Its I7irst (Public Move

With Regard Reductions In Naval Armaments-First L_ord Of Adiriiralty Makes Important Announcements.

(Special to The Guardian)

SHEFFIELD, England, Jan. 1i.- Greiit Britain tonight through its First Lord of‘ Admiralty made its first public move in precise figures toward ,, uction in naval arma- ments. Rt. Hon. A. V. Alexander, the First Lord, speaking in his own constituency, announced that ithe Empire at the coming five power conference intended to propose rg. ducing her requirements in cruiser strength from '10 to 50. The Pact of Paris was said by him to have so al- tered the situation that the Admir- alty felt warranted in setting its ir- reducible minimum of cruisers at.50 instead of 70, considered necessary atlthe time oi the Washington con- ference. This was the first time that the British people at large had been authoritativelyiniormed of the es- act position of their government on

spired statements following the lines of the speech by MreAIeXander mu been circulated however, in Britain during the last few months. These reports were that the total of 50 would be made up of 15 eight-inch. gun vessels oi 10,000 tons and 85 ves- sels of__a smaller type to carry six

inch-guns. Mr. Alexander emphasis- ed the fact that these figures would be operative pending a further naval conference in 1030, which he hoped would confirm and extend the pres- ent agreement.

The First 14rd of the Admiralty made another important announce- ment in reference to capitarships.

He declared that his Government.

would like to ice “if replacements an to take price as they must," a capital 9111b which would be less expensive, both to build and to maintain thin the ship which is involved in the maximum tonnage rule laid down in the Washington treaty." Mr, Al“. ander has sat in parliament for the iiillsborcugh district oi Sheffield since 1022. For many years he we; a Baptist lay preacher and he has act- ed as secretary of the parliamentary committee of the oo-operative con- gress. Mr. Alexander also expressed the British hope ior reduction in destroyers and ultimate abolition of the submarine. The first he said was predicated on partial ‘Qcqmpugh. meat 0i the second and the latter upon winnins the consent of other powers.

Are Excavated At . Ur Of Chaldees

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. lL-Excav- sting to levels which. it is believed. date back to the early part of the fourth millennium before Christ, archaeologists in the Joint expedition of the Pennsylvania Museum and the ‘British Museum at Ur oi the Chal- dcos have uncovered ruins of ” almost as old as the pro-flood city.

The houses described in the report of C. Leonard Woolley, director of the expedition, as the “in-ailments of an era new to Mesopotamian archaeology, “had walls built oi small mud bricks laid herring-bone fash- ion and within their ruins were found clay vases‘ of types foreign

at -Ur sad to the rubbish heaps . which those graves were found. "W9 Propose this season to find ‘out something more, about that city _cf Ur which existed before the flood, and for the last three weeks we have been working on a site‘ chosen as i likely to give the best and the quick- est results in that connection," Mr. Woolley said. “The site is pecutisr. 0n the cem- . etery area the first remains that come to light are those of the Tem- anos wall built by Nebuc‘ ‘ in about 000 B. 6.; in most places where we have excavated, the upper levels are as late or almost g3 1st; as the sixth century.

"In 1925-26, however, when our |work brought us to the lower slopes of a hollow worn by wind and rain ‘at the southeast end of the Tem- choc and we found there, flush with the surface, walls built not with bricks, but with shapeless lumps of crude clay, I felt Justified in de- scribing these as terraces of a-pre- historic age. We are digging in (m; hollow now and the conclusion ar- "Wd at (our years B20 has been amply proved.

"Cut down into and through the walls and floors of the highest stratum we found numerous drains. ‘These are made of short sections of clay P191118 about a half a yard in diameter and set one upon anothgr- i-n a circular shaft.

"31’ the type of the vessels rep- resented we can fix the date of the drainls construction. We know by ex- perience that such drains are never les than fifteen feet and may be as much as forty fset in length.

“Hero in many cases there re- llillMd lust below the modern sur- face only the three or four bottom rings of s. drain which we could date to the first dynasty of Ur (1300 B. C.) This means that the floor level of that period must have been at least

fifteen feet above our heads, and that the walls we were laying bare .must be older than that period byl
