WHERE WILL THE BlGNESS OF
BATTLESHiPS END7

II secnis tina: the board on ConStruc-
ton Of the United States Navy IS de-
signing hattleships OF $4,000 tons. to
carry l4inch guns. In the matter OF
guns this Is a new departure. TIE
older hattlaShips carry l3inch guns.
but 10 guns on the ships OF later con
structlon are heavier than Finch. Il
seems now that the pendulum has
swung far in the other direction. The
British Navy start"! the ig-ship idea
in practice with the nrrn.inonght, OF
c0.Guo tons. THIS great ship could not
presumably contend with the proro5-
I'd American ship of % per cent.
greater tonnage and carrying guns o.
greater destructive power and wider
range The DreadnongHt and her
class have a speed Of "o.5 knots. while
the speed of the proposed American
battleship will be a little less Tn.
ideal fighting ship. in the view OF the
layman, is one that can outrun ana
Overtake any ship she can overcom"
and Outrun and escape from any ship
that is too formidable for her to fight.
Where il bigness TO stop? II that Is
the test OF efficienCy and power. II
may be regarded as certain that Great
Britain will build bigger one still.
II some naval power launches a bat
tleship Of 10000 tons. 1t may be that
another power will make one still! big
ger. 4 ship Of $4,000 tons takes a
great depth Of water TO float her.
How many harbors are there with
enough water for such a vessel? Even
now 1t Is doubted whether Mr.. Tart
can sail on a cruiser from Charles
ton, because 1t is said that the water
OF that harbor is not deep enough
for the cruisers to enter. Is 1t not
desirable that the vessels OF the Unit
ed States Navy should be able to en-
ter the principal harbOrs? No coun'
try can afford as MANY big ships as
smaller ones. and such authorities
as CAPTAIN Mahan believe that ma
neuvering and strategy can be best
p-acticed by a feet Of smaller yes
sells than by small number OF the
biggest size. To put such a vast
treasure as must be expended on a
81. O0O-ton ship seems to the
civilian like putting too many eggs IN
one basket. A vessel that costs $lo,-
oO0, 900 can be destroyed and sunk by
q torpedo or a mine. just readily as
the Maine was destroyed at Havana
The question Of the ultimate size o!
ships is a practical one for the naval
experts of the various powers to de-
eide. There will inevitably be a wide
difference OF opinion on the subject
and perhaps more or less controversy.

Just wait till Fourth O. July. and for
