| basis for a spirited f1gnt on the noor OF
| the House for three instead Of two bat

Although the chairman Of the Naval
Affairs Committee, Lemuel Padgett- OF
Tennessee. is a one-battleship man. and
while the Democratic majority in the
! committee is four, the Republicans are
prepared to vote solidly for two ships.
| Chairman Padgett. 1t is understood. has
not indicated that he will make a de-
termined fight against two ships, and
the subcommittee now drafting the bill.
and Of which Mr.. Padgett is chairman.
expects to be able TO report two-ship
bill to the full committee. Among the
Democrats on the committee, who favor
two ships are Representatives Talbot
of Maryland, Hobson of Alamaba- Esto-
York. Others who have not made their
position plain are expected to vote for
the more liberal programme.
In the meantime, Representative John
Burnett of Alabama, who as leader of
the ''no-public-bu -buildings-no battleships''
crowd last session, was beaten despite a
caucus dlctum in his favor. is planning
another campaign this year II the Dem
ocrats try TO put more than one battle
ship through.
Few Retrenchments Probable.
The estimates OF the Secretary OF the
Navy for this year called for the con-
struction Of three first-class battleships
TO make up for the loss incurred last
year when the new Pennsylvania was
the only ship authorized. While the Re
publicans on the floor may make a spir-
tied fight for three ships when the bill
reaches the House, there IS little proba-
bility of their efforts meeting with sue
cess.
On one feature of the naval pro-
gramme the committee has come to
look with a good deal of favor. and
the bill will carry no retrenchment
move as far as target and steaming
practice is concerned.
Although the general board, upon
whose recommendations the Secretary
of the Navy largely bases his esti-
mates, declared for two battle cruls-
ers in addition to four battleships. no
attempt will II made TO construct
ships OF this type as long as Congress
holds down the battleship construo-
ton type so low. While these heavy
armed greyhounds. which European
powers are paying marked attention to
now. because of their wide steaming
radius and heavy armament, are con-
sidered of great Importance by our
naval experts. It is not believed wise
to construct them at the cost Of bat
tleships.
