TWO BATTLE-SHIPS
SOUGHT BY WILSON
-Four Other Capital Ships Are
Deemed Necessary.

Washington, June PA naval build,
ing program providing for at least six
capital ships, including two dread,
naughts, was agreed upon at White
House conference between President
Wilson, Secretary Daniels and Chair
man Tillman and Senator Swanson OF
the senate naval committee.
This years naval bill, as passed by
the house, authorizes five battle cruis-
ers, but no battlc-ships The admins
tration will make every effort to have
the senate enlarge the program. Aft
er the conference the senate commit
tee appointed Senators Tillman, Swan
son and Lodge to consider the build
ing question, and suggestion by Mr..
Daniels that the enlisted naval force
be enlarged, particularly in view OF
the Mexican situation.
If the senate bill authorizes six cap,
ital ships, it probably will give fou1
battle cruisers and two dreadnaughts,
but if the total is seven, the house pro
vision for five battle cruisers probably
will be left unchanged.
