PRESIDENT ORDERS NAVY
TO GET TN READINESS

ing, pending orders from the Presi-
dent for complete mobilization of the
navy.
Submarine-proof.
Officials say it is planned to estab-
llsh submarine-proof patrol off the
American coast, insuring safe passage
to and from American ports for all
,ships.
Since the visit of the German sub
marine U-53 to Newport last summer
made it clear that the underwater
craft could operate across the Allan
tic, it is believed necessary to pro-
vide for protection to American har-
bors in the event of War.
Informal negotiations will be start
ed for working agreement with the
British and French patrol squadrons
now endeavoring to protect ships
passing through the German subma-
rine zone. -
Recipy sal Protection.
1t is planned to make American
waters safe against submarines for
all ships with the understanding that
American ships will receive full pro-
lection in the war zones from patrols
of the Allies.
The plan would necessitate inter-
change of information as to the rout-
ing of merchant craft across the At
lantic.
Recent naval contracts were let
hour law would be suspended because
of the shortage of skilled labor.
Builders have agreed to construc-
tion of the five battle cruisers and six
scout cruisers recently assigned to
them at the greatest possible speed.
Under this agreement it is hoped to
complete the battle cruisers in three
years and scout cruisers in less than
two.
Secretary Daniels said there was
no present need Of exercising the au-
thority to commander shipbuilding
or other plants to hasten navy build
ing.
The enlisted personnel of the navy
is being recruited rapidly, a total of
$4,000 men being reported in service
today. Congress has authorized a to-
tai strength of $4,000 and given the
President authority to increase that
to $4,000 in emergency.
In the event of complete mobiliza-
ton three steps would be taken:
Retired officers would be summoned
to duty at yards and other shore sta
tions, relieving active officers for sea
duty the fleet reserve, now about
1900 strong in highly trained men,
would be called to the colors and the
navy militia, about 10000 strong,
would be called out.
Would Lose No Time.
with these men available it is esti- /
mated that every ship of military
value, including all reserve battle
craft, cruisers and destroyers, could
be made ready at once for action.
These estimates, however, do not
contemplate finding crews for the
great number of scout patrol craft.
Presumably the young officers to be
graduated to command these vessels
or to relieve more experienced jun
ior officers from battleship duty for
that purpose.
On the surface the War Department
is taking no step toward making
ready for war. The facts are, how
ever, that very complete plans for re-
Of the National Guard
have been prepared and that provi-
sion has been made to secure prompt
ly enough additional officers to organ
ize force of 100000 volunteers.
Recruiting for the regular. army
Is making good progress.
