MOVE Up NEXT to
GREAT BRITAIN
This Well Do With the
Completion OF the
NavaI Program.
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, March THE Senate to-
day passed the Naval Appropriation Bill,
which has been before it for the past
four or five days and then proceeded to
the consideration of the army bill. The
principal question debated in connection
with the naval bill was that of the price
and method of supplying armor plate
for battleships, and it grew out of an
amendment suggested by Mr.. Patterson
providing for a government armor plant.
He ultimately withdrew the amendment,
but offered others limiting the price of
armor and prohibiting purchases from
trusts, all of which were laid on the table.
An amendment to the naval bill proposed
by Mr. Hale was agreed to, increasing the
amount for the navy yard at Charleston,
S. c., from $656,506 to $844, 500.
In speaking of the continued growth of
the navy, Mr.. Patterson said the compile
ton of the naval program would place
the United States ahead of Germany and
Russia in actual tonnage, and ahead of
France and next to Great Britain in effec-
tive fighting tonnage, 'and my judgment .
he continued, lis that American senti-
ment will not permit the United States
at any time in the future to fall behind
