WORLDS LARGEST
WARSHIPS FOR U. S.
Tentative Plans Being Considered
for Two Thirty-six Thousand
Battle Craft.
BIGGEST GUN AFLoAT FEATURE

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1s.-Tenta-
tive plans are being considered,
Secretary Daniels said today, for
two 36,OO0-ton battleships to be in
cluded In the first years part Of the
five-year building program congress
will be asked to approve. There
are no warships so large afloat any
where in the world now.
Part Of the increased displace-
ment in the newest ships will be due
to changed hull construction to pro-
vide additional torpedo defense
bulkheads. While the general
characteristics of the ships have not
been disclosed, 1t is probable they
will have increased armament and
speed.
New 10-Ineh rifle.
The navy has developed sixteen-inch
rifle. OF which no use has yet been made.
and the new ships may carry ten or
more OF these II Developments of the
European war indicate the wisdom OF
mounting them. The largest guns now
afloat are the fifteen-Inch weapons OF
European navies. which the American
fourteen-inch rifle is said 10 equal for all
practical purposes.
Maximum speed of American battle
ships now built or authorized is less than
twenty-one knots. although European
first line ships 80 considerably above that.
II Is considered probable that speed Of
perhaps twenty-five knots wfl be sought
hereafter.

LONDON, Nov. 19.-No dispatches
have been received either from
Athens or saloniki since early
Thursday morning and this closure
OF telegraphic communication is re-
garded as ominous for the position
of the Serbian army, which is en-
gagged In a difficult retreat.
Unconfirmed reports have come
through Rome and Paris that Bull
garlan advance. guards have entered
Monastir. but they are regarded here
with suspicion. According to Off
cial statements. however. almost
four-fifth of Serbia already is over

garians, whose advance into the
mountain Kingdoms has been very
rapid.

Tho Austro-German advance from the
northwest approaches the sanJak OF Novi-
pizar, having reached to the north of
Raska. Thence II passes through Kur-
sumlya and Badan, ending at n point
between Ieskovatz and Vranya. The oc-
cupation Of Kursumlya brings the in
vaders close TO Metrovitza and gives them
the key TO one OF the few great cross
roads cutting Serbia from east TO west.
The Serbian army Is being forced be-
tween the limits OF two narrow frontiers,
Metroxitza and Prlstina. In the center,
and Prilep and Monastir on the south.
The serbians have the alternative OF
giving battle where they stand or retir-

There appears TO be no hope that the
British and French forces landed at sa-
loniki can give the Serbs any assistance
In their difficult retreat. The railway

junction and the Katchanik pass, while
