BATTLE-CRUISERS
TOO BIG FOR YARD
Drydocks Must Be En-
larged to Accommodate
New Type Ship.

What's the use Of building battle
cruisers II you have no place to put
them"
This is the question that is perplex-
ing officials OF the navy yard One de
clared last night that If no provisions
were made 10 increase the size of the
drydocks al Brooklyn there was no
sense in building battle-cruisers.
The biggest drydock at the navy yard
now is just about large enough to hold
the dreadnoughts that are regarded as
the biggest IN the navy. About 525
feet is the length Of ships of the first
line, and their bows are not very far
from the end Of the big dock New
battle cruisers. however, such as have
been authorized by Congress, are TO be
at least 500 feet long.
Not only will present drydockage be
inadequate. but the great length Of the
new war monsters will make berthing
space extremely scarce. Officials will
rot venture a guess what would hap
pen should Congress forget money for
more docks.
Stirred by CONGRESSES failure to pro-
vide for any dreadnoughs in the new
building scheme. Representative James
p. Maher. OF Brooklyn. announced last
night that he intends to exert every
effort TO have the bill amended to IN
clude two new dreadnoughts p year.
incidentally. the Representative hoped
that the dock deficiency a. the Brook
lvn navy yard would be remedied by his
amendment In addition Mr. Maher has
declared for = better channel approach
10 New York Harbor.
In addition 10 the bsttlcship and
drydock plans Nh Maher is going TO
make an heroic effort to get the ways
at the navy yard heightened, IN order
that when the contracts are ready TO
be lei FOR the construction of the bat
tle-cruisers the navy yard will he
ready 10 make real bid for the work.

Iron The Tribune Bureau

Washington. May 23-The made
ouacy of the regular army and not the
undependsbilty Of the militia IS the
lesson to draw from the present situa-
tion on the Mexican border. accord
ing to a statement issued to-day by
General Samuel r. NJ. Young, prcsi-
dent of the Association for National
Service.
General Young believes that minor
emergencies like the Mexican disturb
ance should be taken care OF by the
regular army, and II should be sufi-
GENTLY large for that purpose. Citizen
soldiers OF any kind should not be
called from their homes and business
except in a great war where the late
Of the nation is at stake" he declares.
Attacks on the personnel Of the Ma
tional Guard because OF the mastering
in difficulties are unjust, General
Young believes. The entire military
system Of the United States is 10
blame. he declares. because II IS based
on the principle Of voluntary service.
"To my mind" General Young's
statement SAYS. "a National Guards
man is under no more oh. cation %
serve the country that any other cit
izen. Many Of those who ale heapng
abuse upon the heads of the National
Guard are living in glass houses. and
should not be casting so many stones:
in the event of a great war we would
have more trouble in raising a large
volunteer army than the government
is now experiencing in securing SUM-
cient force Of National Guardsmen TO
assist in the patrol Of the border.
Weakness of Volunteer System.
THE situation on the border is only
another object lesson which demon
strates the weakness of our volunteer
system. It is a grave injustice to
blame the personnel OF the National
Guard for the weakness of our entire
system
General Young's theory confemplstes
a regular army of 100000. as recon
mended by the Army War College. and
a citizen sodiery obtained by uniyer-
sal and compulsory training.
Secretary OF War Baker said to-day
that he Favored some kind Of active
training, but opposed compulsion. He
believes that the Hay plan is 2 step
i'm the right direction. but he intimsted
that it did not provide n sufficient cit
zen soldiery for the second line of de-
fence of the nation. The Secretary
opposes universal compulsory training
