AIMS AT GREATEST
DESTROYER FLEET
TrebiinS OF Output-Conferenc
With Builders.

/ Immediate eXpension of shipbulld-
! ing facilities in the United States to
double or treble the output of de-
/ stroyers during the next eighteen
months was the object of confer
! ence Monday between Secretary Dan
! iels and representatives of twenty
1 five or more ship and engine builders
at " ashington.
If we get what We want" the
Secretary said the United States
will have more destroyers than any
other power. They are the one thing
that submarine fears
The Secretary indicated that all
the destroyers which the builders
could produce would be ordered. Ev-
cry effort of the department will be
used in speeding up work on the
large number of contracts pending.
Every aspect of shipbuilding that
bears on destroyer production waa
taken up at the conference. There
is no shortage of material or plant
facilities, but difficulty lies in OBJ
tanning high-power err bollers,
and radacrian. -qaar- -
Secretary Daniels said no adoI-
tiOnat submarine chaSers would be
ordered At present The cnasers are
valuable for harbor and in-shore-pa-
troll work, but the destroyers are far
superior even for these duties and
| have in addition Sea-go1ng qualities
which make them of far greater val
ue III all ways than the small chaser.
Every suggestion that the ship OF
engine builders had to make as to
additional motive power for the de-
stroyerS was given close attention.
The possibility of equipping some of
the new vessels with oil engines was
among the suggestions offered.
AS to the plants at which the new
deStroyers will be laid down, Secre
tary Daniels said he favored expan-
sion of those now building destroy
ers as the most efficient means on
speeding up. Experience gained III
previous building will enable such
plants to turn out new ships more
quickly, it is felt than would be pos
sible for new plant lacking tnaJ
experience.
Secretary Daniels decision shows
that the officers who have been con-
tending that the best answer to the
U-boat was to turn out an enormous
number of destroyerS have carried
their point. The experience of all
allied naVieS that the destroyer is
more deadly to submarines than any
other type of craft is borne out by
reports from Vice Admiral Sims,
founded on the actual experience OF
American destroyers in European
waters.
Another aspect is the problem of
furnishing conveys to troops and
supply ships which VIII grow as
American forces in France are in
creased. Many officers believe thai
destroyer conveys guarantee a large
degree of security from submarine
attack. The thing needed, in their
view, is an adequate number of de-
stroyers to make certain that supply
lines are not interrupted. The de-
partment apparently has approved
this view.
No figures have been made public
of the number of the destroyers now
building. Secretary Daniels said thai
they represented the maximum capa-
city of the country. To increase that
capacity will require the expansion
OF every existing plant and the addi-
ton of new engine ad boiler works

Washington Monument,

The cornerstone of the Washing
