TUE new American navy, in proper
ton to size, has cost more than the
British navy, because it is worth more.
The vessels are swifter, stronger and
more useful, and their machinery, guns
and general equipment more effective.

as it exists to-day, is small, but, rela-
lively to tonnage, it is not only the best
in the world, but it is the cheapest.
