Abstract
The Cabinet discussed the DRC Report during March and April 1934. Also on its agenda were the Disarmament Conference and Germany’s illegal rearmament; the designation of Germany as ultimate potential enemy continued to be confirmed. Simultaneously, news from Tokyo reinforced the impression that opportunity awaited for improved relations with Japan. Chamberlain used the evidence in both respects to begin imposing his strategic vision on the Cabinet.
