THREE NAVIES.

i h;eb has upset the bases Of cal
s"lstions, the Navy Department
,as emitted this year its usr al tau
-, no. an the navies of the world,
hnt naval experts at Washington
o 0re busy with speculation over
.ho effect of the war on the three
Leading navies of the world.
When it began, Great Britain
ronked first by a large margin,
with Germany second and the
limited States third. Notwith-
standinig the fact that Germany
has resolutely persevered in her
effort to bring her enemy's fight
ing strength to a level with her
own by policy of attrition, in
the minds of the experts the dis
naritv between the two navies re-
mains relatively the same, with
the United States about as far be
hind Germany now as when the
war began.
Based on the Navy Depart
ment's figures of a year ago, if
she had sustained no losses Ger
many would now have tonnage
Of 1928, 20S, while Great Britain
would have 1851 ,291, or a shade
more than twice that Of Germany.
Both nations, however, al;eady
have suffered considerable losses,
though their great great fleets
have not yet met. Excluding
vessels intern:d and not counting
the loss Of the t'oeben AMI Bres-
lau now in Turkish waters, Germ
any's shrinkage amounts to 1O3,-
$40 tons and Britain's 1914,
which would make the apparent
present tonnage. Great Britain,
2,4S1, 156 and Germany, 1924
36S.
In spite of the activity Of the
submarines, however, the popular
basis of comparison is still the
battleship strength. If the bat
tleships under construction year
ago have been completed Great
Britain would have a total of
l.310,235 of big ship tonnage, and
Germany 690,100; but with the
oss of the Audacious, Formidable
md Bulwark there would have to
,e deduct tied from the British total
4, 900 tons.
That would seem to give a
Germany a little better standing
elatively than at the beginning.
here is, however, one more ele-
nent to be considered. It is the
onnage in big ships which the
wo nations have been able to put
y commission since the war be-
an. Accurate figures are, Of
curse, unobtainable; but if the
Judgment of the experts is worth
nything here the advantage
gain is with the British, in
vhich event they probably have
vercome the losses suffered in
be destruction of the three ves-
els already mentioned.
The total tonnage of the Unit
d States is 921,8 1884. Germany's
nth her losses counted in, is
,124,368, which still keeps her
head of the United States, and,
ince she has lost no battleship,

that the site named in the appropria-
ton act is wholly inadequate and en-
