NEW DREADNAUGHT TO
BE NAMED CALIFORNIA

Washington, July 11.-Setretary
Daniels announced today that the
latest four dreadnaughts, beginning
with No. 80, would be named Arizona,
California, Mississippi and Idaho. The
last two were so named in order that
the states of Mississippi and Idaho
might not lose their ships because OF
the recent sale of two battleships to
Greece.
With the newly named battleships,
every state in the Union now has a
tattleship named for it except Mary
land, Montana, Dakota, Washington,
West Virginia, Colorado, North Caro-
lima, New Mexico and Tennessee.
In the future the armored cruiser
California will be known as the San
Diego. The present congress author
lied the construction of three dread
naugnts. No. 80 already is under
construction at the New York navy
yard. Plans for the other three are
nearly ready.
