THREE 14-lNCH GUNS
TO BE IN EACH TURRET
Interesting on the Battle
ships Oklahoma md

! Washington, November l5.--Threc
fourtee Inch guns will appear in each
of two OF the four turrets Of the
new battlcships Oklahoma and Nevada.
authorized at the last session of Con-
gress, when these vessels are placed
in commission. AS the United states
will be the first to place guns of the
fourteen-inch type afloat, in the bat
tleships New York ana Texas. now
building, the naval officials now are
directing their energies toward ON
centrating these big guns in as few
turrets as possible.
Although doubt is expressed as to
whether the siNtcen-inch gun, which
the army now is working on for coast
defense work, would ever be available
for battleship use. owing TO the ire
strain of the recoll on the
gun platform. it is believed that a
platform which can stand the strain
from the s~imultaneou discharge of
three f~ourteen-inch guns would stand
the recoil from Two s~iNtcen-inch guns.
Ordnance experts explain that the
shock from three fourtcen-incn guns
would certainly be much greater than
that from two of the s~ixtecn-inch
type
1t Is explained that the primary
purpose of concentrating the ten four
teen-inch guns abroad the Oklahoma
and Nevada in four turrets instead of
uring five. as in the case Of the New
York and Texas, Is to reduce the
weight OF the armour necessary 10
protect the guns.
First To Adopt Feature.
While the United States Navy is not
tho nrst to use the "thrce-guns-in-a-
turret' feature aboard it's Dread
thoughts II will be the first to uS, dig
guns OF the fourteen-inch type three
in Il turret. Italy and Russia now are
! building several ships with that fna-
turc, but their turrcts will house three
twclve-inch guns
Although England will for a short
time enjoy the distinction of having
the largest gun ailoat-a vessel now
under construction by that ountry
having a l3.5-inch gun-that honor VIII
be snatched from her when the New
: ork and Texas are placed III commits
sion.
An Interesting feature in connection
with the use of fourtcen-inch guns is
that il has been proven by ordnance
experts under comparative firing tests
petwcen the twelve-inch and fourteen
inch guns that the accuracy Of the lat
ter Is somewhat greater than tf~t 81
the former. y broadsidc fire fr.ynl thG
ten f~ourteen-tnch guns orming the
main batteries of the New York and
Texas, when they arc completed, will
result in throwing approximateIy
seven tons of hard steel toward an
enemy.
