NaSnlfgIo Iol, 1NoN. IL NN'>'
Wilson has let it be known to call
ers that he will not ask Congress
for any increase in naval apprOpri-
ations.
The administrations program calls
for two battleships, eight submarines
and half dozen gunboats.
The navy board, composed of eX-
perts, will recommend four battle
ships, Is submarines and from IA
to 16 gunboats.
The presidents avowed attitude for
small navy program, it was pre-
dicted here tonight by his enemies,
will precipitate the bitterest fight
Congress has ever known upon the
naval upbuilding.
Representative Roberts, Republican,
of Massachusetts, a member of the
House naval affairs committee, indi-
Gated how the Republicans will line
up against the Democrats on the navy
issue.
"a bigger navy is imperative" said
Mr.. Roberts. 81 feel confident that
the American people will stand be-
hind whatever effort is made along
that line.
"Aii increased building program for
the navy will be persistently urged,
even if it is necessary to sacrifice
some other parts of the naval bill.
1t is too early to figure out what the
increases will be, but the committee
will begin work within a fortnight
and will have it ready when Congress
meets.
at is certain there will be a hot
fight for an adequate navy"
The Navy League is aroused over
the agitation for an enlarged navy
and will throw its influence into the
fight when Congress opens.
Arthur H. Dadmun, secretary of the
league, said:
"There is every reason why the
recommendations of Admiral Dewey
and his associates on the general
board for battleship fleet that will
bring the total to 48 capital ships,
with proportionate number of sub
marines and other auxiliary vessels,
should be adopted by Congress. The
general naval board is a body of au-
thoritative experts.
"The navy that we need is not for
aggression, but to defend our lands
and peoples; to defend our commerce;
to defend American policies, and to
share in defending the principle of
self government in the entire West
ern Hemisphere. ~
