New Provisions Set Forth by Steam

How the life-saving provisions of the

and to the latter an.S % foreign ships
carrying passengers from the United
States after September 4, 1916.
Exempted from the provisions are
ships under the flags of nations whose
navigation laws approximate those of
the United States and who have recip-

this country. Such nations, the letter
says, are Denmark, France, Germany,

of the House several members fought

gone forth that none was to be added
and the matter ended right there in
the smoke of battle on the House floor.
During that hard-fought contest Rep
resentative Miller of Minnesota. a re-
publican, urged these ships, saying:
Naval history is now being made by
battle cruisers. When we place be-

part of Representative Miller, it is true
that naval officers have been studying
battle cruisers, but there has been a
suspicion of doubt on the battle cruis-
er question in certain influential quar-
tiers, and it probably is true also that
there has been no unanimity of opinion
as to the exact type of battle cruiser
to be built.
Now, however. it is learned at the
Navy Department the general board is
figuring on thirty five-knot battle
cruiser with light armor, something
about five inches thick, and armed
with the greatest guns available for
the navy. This ship would be a grey
hound for speed and a heavyweight
for punch. Its function would be to
play the hit and run game-and out

naval history is Respondent with the
deeds of heroes who swept the seas in
swift ships. Today we find we have
the prize turtle navy of the world.
While our feet is moving with ponder
Gus slowness, foreign fleet of swift
ships, armed with big guns, would keep
out of our reach and pepper us to
pieces. Have our navy experts become
so grooved in the rut of routine that
they have permitted other nations to
profit by the experience of humankind
While they alone move blindly and stu

HEAVY GUN CRUISERS
LONG URGED FOR NAVY
Type Of Battleship Which Is Now
Contemplated Not New
Proposition.
May Be Recommended to Congress
by Secretary Daniels in His
Next Program.

Battleship cruisers-those fast big
gunned vessels that have suddenly
come into prominence because Secre-
tary Daniels and Chairman Padgett of
the House committee on naval affairs
have let it be known they probably
will be included in the forthcoming
naval program-are not new to naval
experts. Neither are they new to those
who have followed up hill and down
dale the attempts by the big navy men
In Congress to get an adequate build
ing program on the statute books.
In fact. several members of Congress
urged the naval affairs committee and
the House to include battle cruisers
in the building program last year. The
idea of battle cruisers has been bang
ing around the naval affairs committees
of Senate and House for years. Naval
experts have been studying them. A
prominent naval constructor, 1t is
claimed, made a speech on these ships
before the War College only year or
two ago. but the general board of the
navy did not see fit to include any OF
this class of sea fighters in the pro-
gram for the present fiscal year. 1t
is explained at the Navy Department
that this is SO because they simply
had to economic"

1t may be whispered, too. that the
navy general board is now supposed to
be working out a hve-year building
program, to be submitted to the Presi-
dent. and that the board is making up
the largest program that has ever been
seen.
