Conference Suggested.
II venture 10 recommend that The war
and navy officials and other representa-
tives Of all the nations be Invited to hold
a conference 10 discuss whether they can
not agree upon a plan for Iessening the
cost OF preparation for war. 1t is recog-
nized that the desired end OF competitive
building, carried on under whip and spur,
could not be effective without agreement
between great nations. Il ought not to
be difficult to secure an agreement by
which navies win be adequate without
being overgrown and without imposing
overheavy taxation upon the industry Of
a nation. I trust the tentative suggestion
for a naval holiday by the strongest Of
the powers will be debated and the mat
ter seriously considered by an interna-
tionai conference looking TO reduction Of
the ambitious and costly plans for navy

take the Initiative and that steps will

Immediate requirement and operation
OF oil wells and refineries to furnish fuel
for the navy. government manufacture
Of srmor. more naval chaplains, better
educational facilities for enlisted men and
graduated retirement law are the other
chief recommendations.
Government Factories Urged.
The secretary thinks that the time has
come when the navy should be freed
from excessive prices charged by pri-
vate manufacturers Of armor plate, guns
and gun forgings, powder. torpedoes and
other supplies and munitions, so he rec
ommends appropriations for an armor
plate factory and an increase in the gun
factory, the powder factory and the tor
pedo works. He refers TO his efforts TO
secure reasonable prices from the armor
companies, and asserts that without its
own plant the government would be at
the mercy of three manufacturers in time
of war. History does not warrant an
assumption, he adds, that the patriotism
of these companies will prove superior to
their desire for profits The report COM
ments upon contracts made by the COM
panies TO supply foreign navles with
armor ct prices much below those
charged their own government, and d.
rects particular attention to the fact that
they at present supply armor for the
Japanese crusier Haruna at s4eOS5 a ton
while charging 1904 to $40 ton for
armor for the American battleship No. 80.

and refineries follows the transformation
OF modern navies from coal to oil
burners. The report says the price of

OF opposition to the progressive plans of
that able body Of naval statesmen. but
because II is deemed wise to suggest a
budget that win be within the resources
Of our government II is the duty OF
the naval experts TO make such recon-
mendations as their experience and
training dictates. II Is the duty Of the
head or the department TO urge only
such appropriations as II is believed con-
gress can grant within the limits of it's

Reason for Pause.
In endorsing a naval holiday the secre-
tary says:
The growing cost OF dreadnaughts, Of
powder and of everything that makes an
efficient navy give reason for pause.
This heavy expense commands national
and international consideration. The
naval appropriation has doubled in thir-
teen years, and yet this country has not

as have some other great nations Ten
years ago our largest battleship cost

penditure TO be reduced?
Naval programs announced by the ma
tions already having the largest navies,
and the entrance into the building of
dreadnaughts by nations which have not
hitherto burdened their people with the
expense OF large battleships, indicates
that the end Is not yet. No single nation
with large interests can safely take n
vacation in the building of battleshIps
That much to be desired vacation must
come through concerted action. II II Is
