ONE BATTLESHIP ONLY.

The news comes from Washington
that appropriation has been made for
one new battleship only and that
there is great distress of mind in the
Navy Department as a result.
There are two ways of looking at
the battleship proposition If this coun-
Try should be unfortunate enough tc
he drawn into war with either Germ
any of Japan,-and such a thing is not
an impossibility, even though not now
a probability-it would want war yes
sells and want them very badly
In such an event it would be appre.
ciated that being prepared is the first
great factor to successful war. After
war begins battIeships are not to be
had. They are not obtainable by pur-
chase from other nations, and they
cannot be built inside of year or two
In the event of such a war the coun-
try would rise up and declaim loudly
against the policy that kept it unpre-
pared to meet such foe with an ade-
4uate navy. 1t would be forgotten thar
the unpreparedness was the result of ,
catering to an impression that the
people do not want a large navy. All
that would be thought of would be the
picking of a scapegoat on whom tn
vent the popular anger.
On the other hand, it is not to he
forgotten that war vessels seem to he
very short lived. In a few years they
are pat IN the reserve class and the
'ullIlons represented in them look like
just that many millions thrown away
lheh' too, the upkeep of a warship ,s
NOT small matter, and every new YES
sci means a great increase in tho on
hual expenditures.
Between these two considerations
lne average congressman is probably
n"rd put to 1t as to what is the pronor
course for him to pursue. And ont Of
these conditions comes the fact tba+
Out one addition to the navy is provid-
eu Tor this year. The plea of econorv
'as won. The skies are clear no war
seems imminent, and it looks we'll n
Inc country at large to be abIo e.,
make showing along the line of noaco
'reatles and lessening of warljke ax
penditures. Inc ca
Dut II war should come-wen tba.
would be another story.
