II the plaus-of the General Board are
followed out. the new battleships TO be
authorized at this session of Congress
win be the largest and most powerful
afoat and viii be equipped with the
biggest calibre armament.
Tentative plans drawn for their con
struction by the naval authorities put
their displacement at $4,000 tons ana
their armament ten 16-inch guns The
recommendation for ten 16-inch rifles
comes direct from the General Board
and has the endorsement Of many ord
nance officers, although there is a diff
ference OF opinion in naval circles as to
whether 16-inch or 14-inch guns should
prevail for these ships.
The same argument caused divis-
ion OF opinion among naval authorities
when it was proposed To use 14-inch
instead Of l2-irch guns. The tentative
plans for battleships, battle cruisers.
destroyels, submarines. gunboats. a
hospital ship and fuel ship have been
drawn in anticipation of the authori-
cation OF these various types Of vessels
Secretary of the Navy Daniels said
Saturday that the most interest was
centered in the batleships and battle
cruisers. with expert opinion about
equally divided as to which of these
types would be of the greatest value
for the efficiency of the feet
Detailed plans for the battle cruisers
have not yet been completed at the
Navy Department. il was explained
as the design for these ships is entirely
new in the United States Navy. II is
already calculated, however, that the
speed for these vessels must not be
under thirty-fve knots
II is believed at the Navy Depart
ment that Congress will he disposed
toward the smaller type of coastal
submarine IN preference to the fleet
type The theory followed by the sup
porters of this view is that it is better
to await the results of the trial of the
Schley and the two sister ships before
authorizing any more fleet submarines

The characteristics of the new de
stroyers included in the 1917 pro-
gramme probably will be about the
same in appearance as the destroyers
designed last year with some minor
improvements ana slight increase in
speed
The designs for the gunboats con

ramento type. which has given much
satisfaction and which seems in its
Laps tors displacement to well serve
the purposes Of the navy for this type
