...other at sea could work out some sort of gentlemen's agreement in restraint of their trade. The British thought that something might be done: 1) to limit the size and armament, but not the number, of various classes of naval vessels, 2) to have each nation privately inform the others of the tonnage it intends to build so that no one need overbuild out of fear of being caught napping in the naval race.
