Washington. May 1.-THE admin
istration has decided on complete
cha hse In Its naval policy and viii
shortly make n demand on Congress
for "a wig increase in the construction
program to be authorized at this ses-
sion.
The bill, which will be reported in
the House by the Naval Affairs Com
mittee on Saturday. Is inadequate. ac-
coreiing to the President and his as
sociates. They will seek to have the
measure amended, as follows:
six new capital ships instead of
four.
,. An increase in the personnel of
the navy to 10000. instead of $500.
3. The President to call out 100000
men in time OF emergency.
4. a naval appropriation of $3.50
900. 600 instead of approximately
seas. 000. 600.
The appropriation last year was
$3.50, 100000. 1t was declared today
that the administration is willing to
assume full responsibility for the in
crease OF s100.0O0.00O.
Program Announced In October.
The administration announced its
national defense program for the navy
for last October. 1t comprised a Ave-
year building scheme, which called for
a total of ten capital ships In the five
years. For the first year only two
dreadnaughts and two battle cruisers
were asked. and for the second year
two dreadnaughts and no battle
cruisers.
1t is now proposed to authorize the
first year the six CA ital ships original
ly called for in two years, and It Is
expected the total Of ten will be far
exceeded before the five-year period
expires. 1t was considered improbable
today that Congress will adhere to the
five-year building scheme. but will
prefer to legislate for one year at a
time.
II was also the purpose of the ad-
ministration originally not to provide
full crews for ships in reserve.
II Is proposed now to have no ves-
sells on the reserve. but to keep all
in full commission.
The increase OF $4,000 enlisted men
to be authorised by the House bill
would provide a 100 per cent crew
for every naval vessel built and build
ing. except those in the reserve. and a
80 per cent quota Tor the latter. The
policy had been to Keep 25 per cent OF
4 full crew on each vessel In reserve.
hut Secretary OF the Navy Daniels la
creased, this to 40 per cent.
