'22nd September 1928 (Saturday). The cat is out of the bag over the Anglo-French naval pact. One of the Hearst papers, ?The New York American? has got hold of a letter from the Quai d?Orsay to the Embassies in which it appears quite clearly that the pact is merely an agreement between France and England to terms regarding limitation, ruling out further discussion of the different view point held by the States. Naturally, the States regard this as a hostile move, particularly in view of the stupid secrecy of it. Their cruiser programme suspended a year ago at the beginning of the discussion is now to be proceeded with, and the ?Big Navy Group? will be crowing.'
