HER OWN BUILDER.

Japan Proposes to Be Independent of
Other Nations.
Ever progressive Japan is now
considering a scheme for making the
armament OF her fleet no longer de-
pendent on foreign dockyards and ar
senals as it is now. The new propo-
sition is that of inviting a foreign
firm, preferably from the United
States, to locate in Japan and give a
blg subsidy. Thus Japan would de-
rive the .benenJ of capital and expert
ence and at the same time make her
no longer wholly DEPENDENT on foreign
ers.
The Jill, prominent vernacular pa
per, says:
In the haste for recovering and i'm
proving our naval resources after the
late war, our Government had barely
time to devise any permanent design
for the building at home Of all war
ships that the needs Of our navy rend-
fore all orders were given to foreign
firms. It is not yet too late TO offer
some firm g percentage subsidy on big
capital to operate works for building
naval and merchant vessels. This sub
sidy need not be continued after the
profits reached five per cent. This
question should receive more prompt
attention than the Government own
! ership OF railroads."
