Battle Ships Should Be, Think People

Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star
PORTSMOUTH, Va, February 12.-Not
alone in business circles of this CITY and
Norfolk, but among those even more init
mately identified with the prosperity and
well-being of the navy yard here there Is
the greatest satisfaction expressed at the
action of the Portsmouth Business Mems
Association in taking early action on the
important question of securing a battIeship
for this yard.
In view of the fact that there are to be
built under the terms of the present appro-
priation bill for the increase Of the nayy
three battleships, 1t Is believed that at least
one CT them can be secured for the Ports
mouth (Va) yard.
There are many navy men who are much
inclined to the belief that as a matter of
public policy at least one ship should be
