DANIELS TO DEMAND
BIG NAVY PROGRAM

Secretary of the Navy Daniels Is not
only preparing to submit to Congress
estimates for a big building program
for the navy but he may ask the people
OF the country to demand the necessary
legislation.
This is a marked change from the
earlier attitude Of the Secretary of the
Navy He has parted company. IT is
said, with his old friend, William J.
paredness. and is convinced that in
stead of scuttling it's warships the ma
ton needs a navy up-to-date in every
respect.
MIR. Daniels change Of front, it is
pointed out reflects a change in the
which has been forced to the conclusion
that in view OF the warlike attitude OF
the rest of the world the United States
cannot be without adequate insurance
against an invasion which might Bel
gianize II.
Secretary Daniels has announced that
he does not want to make his program
public until the last moment. In order
that the country may have full benefit
of the lessons OF the European war.
However, Secretary Daniels has been
comforting with the division chiefs of
the navy and the general board. His
general plan Is to put the fleets on the
ment and nersonnel and to lay down a
building policy which in a few years
will put the navy of the United States
In second place, next to Great Britain.
More fast cruisers, more fast destroy
ers. a large feet Of powerful subma-
crease in numbers of men. the needed
auXiliaries. and the best types Of ord
nance and plenty of reserve ammunition
these are features of the new program.
