MAY POT EFFORT ON
SMALL CRAFT BUILDING
Suggested That Work May Be Post
peDcd On big ships AS Smaller Do
Rottcr, Work U.Boat Chasing.

Washington. April 1.-THE navy's
building program is being held up un-
I'll the arrival OF the British and
french commissions. IT was learned
tor;sht that while work on smaller
ficnting craft is being -,rsnsd nothing
will be done on the eight great vessels
provided for in the last two building
programs.
The ACCESSIBILITY of holding UP work
on warship construction until the
allies have been heard rom has been
discussed for some time. 1t is known
that the subject YVES given deep con-
sloeration while Vice-Admiral NJ. E.
Browning. OF the British ravy. and
Rear-Admiral Grasset, of the French
navy. were here on their mission.
There are various reasons for the
delay. One Is to ascertain just what
type OF war vessels the allies have
found most useful and also what types
are needed most just now. Another
In that merchant vessels have been
found Just as successful at submarines
chasing as warships and they have
the added advantage Of being cargo
vessels. Should the visiting commits
sions decide that the types OF war
ships planned or under construction
are not best suited to the purposes OF
the present war, II Is probable that a
change will be made. II work on the
larger vessels II held up for a time II
will release thousands OF men for
other work and many of them could
be used in the construction OF mer-
chant ships.
Temporarily this hold-up on the
naval building program will mean a
tie-up in materials. Thousands OF
tons OF steel plates and parts. which
NJ M fn hail 20
OF the vessels for which they were
especially designed, already are in the
shipbuilding and navy yards. The
steel plants have been turning out
armor, gun parts and various ma
terfais for months.
