efforts In the past few years to put
her navy on footing equal with that

realizes fully that her insular position,
like that OF England, requires that she

the Mikasa, launched from an English
shipyard last November. This vessel
has an extreme length OF 1872 feet, ana
a displacement of 1880 tons. Japan's
total naval force today consists OF
seventy-five vessels; eight first-class
