TO SUBMIT SOON
BIG ESTIMATE FOR NAVY
Secretary Daniels to Ask $3.50, ,OOO,'
600 for Destroyers to Make U. S.
Leader in Ships of That Type.

Secretary Daniels expects to submit
to Congress this week estimates OF
S350,000.00O for the great number OF
destroyers which will make the Ameri-
can Navy the leader of the world In
ships of that type.
The money will be used to expand e1-
isting shipbuilding plants and also to
build additional engine and boiler fac
tories, as the destroyer program. upon
which the shipbuilding industry is now
engaged, represents the full capacity
OF the industry.
Navy designers are preparing plans
for a standardized DESTROYER to facili-
tate the quantity productfon- or me
most successful weapon against SUD-
marines. Parts Of engines Will be as
sembled from various factories at CEN
trail plants, and forwarded to ship
yards building hulls.
Details of the number OF destroyers
now under construction or the numpef
contemplated in the supplemental pro-
gram are withheld for military rea-
sons.
New destroyers will be delivered SO
rapidly beginning early next year that
the supply of trained officers and men
will be taxed in pdtting them into COM
mission. Means for training new crews
will have to be expanded proportion
ately.
The s35O.00o,000 estimate. it was in
dicated today. is n minimum. and may
have to be increased substantially.
