pose of the partnership just announced
between the Newport News Shipbu.ld-
ing Company and Vickcrs, Sons e
Maxim. of England the United States
VIII possess internal resources in the
way Of armament construction, rs it
already possesses internal resources in
the way of armor- pate manufacture,
which Will enable II to preserve with
equanimity tine same bluff front of di-
plonsatic policy touching the affairs Of
the Greater United States, as has pre-
vlously characterized the conduct of its
foreign policy within the limits estab-
lished by the old Interpretation Of the
Monroe doctrine.
The government already possesses
two big gun factories. capable of turn
ing out modern rifles OF any desired
calibre. from forgings supplied by con
mercial shops at Homestead, Beth'lc-
hem or Chicago. One of the factories
is at Washington. the other at Wa
tervIlc;.
There IS plenty of room In this coun-
try for the Vickers < Maxim enterprise
since it allies itself 10 an established
American concern. Uncle Sam is going

guns in the immediate future. even if
his relations with his we'll heeled neigh
