United States may have battleship Of

warship Of formidable proportions The
largest battleship now owned by any
naval power is OF "A little more than

Queen Victoria, was a japanese battle
ship recently completed and displacing
5000 tons Great Britain has several
battleships Of equal tonnage on the way
and Italy's Lepanto Of 10000 tons.
The British and Japanese battleshps
OF $4,000 tons drew q feet of water or
more. That would prevent their entry

that many American harbors cannot at
