He Would Have Navy Maintained on
Basis of Forty Eight First
Class Battleships.
DEFINITE DECISION 600
SOON
Matter Has Been Discussed With
President and Chairman Padgett,
OF House Naval Affairs Committee.
More Ammunition Wanted.

! WASHINGTON, October 5.-secre-
! tary Daniels made II plain to-day that
tho navy building program now in
course OF preparation, will include mt
least two superdreadnouehts, each to
cost SlS.000.00O.
The secretary Will see President
wilson again during the week and ex-
poets To complete his estimates a week
from tomorrow.
| Congress probably will he asked to
approve Il continuing building policy
at the navy, having for it's object
! maintenance of the navy on the basis
or at least forty-eight first class bat
tleships. The proportion OF super
battle cruisers. scouts, dcstroycrs. sub
! marines and auNiliarics would be
worked out from this figure.
Secretary Daniels said to-day that
| thc proposal to recommend TO Congress
tho establishment Of this policy had
been discussed BY him both with Presi-
dent Wilson and with Chairman Pad
Eett. of the House Naval Affairs Com
mittee. While he expected that no
definite decision had been reached the
secretary indicated that he was in
clincd to favor such q plan. The navy
general board for many years has
computed its construction estimates on
n basis similar TO that suggested. hut
the proposal to write the plan into an
appropriation bill as definite and
continuing building policy. ncvcr has
received the approval OF any Secretary
OF the Navy.
Secretary Daniels declared that IL
the policy received the approval OF the
people he had little doubt that Con-
crosses to come would follow it in
principle so that the yearly eXpendi-
ture on the navy could he computed in
advance with considerable degree OF
accuracy.
Congress will he asked also to make
more liberal provisions In reserves Of
ammunition than ever before has been
thought necessary. Secretary Daniels
said the necessity OF huge reserves OF
ammunition has been the most strik-
ing lesson drawn from the European
war The amount TO be sought far this
purpose was not disclosed.
