ARMN NAVY
CRUISERS WOULD
PLAY Main ROLE

Under the caption III Our Navy
Goes to War" The Army and Navy
Journal suggests what the navy may
be expected to do in case ii is called
into service. On this point II says, in
part:
Just what role the United States
Navy will play in the event of war
with Germany our navy strategists
have undoubtedly determined ere this.
and all possible advantage will be
taken of such lessons as have. been
learned from the present war AS to
what our navy can or can not do, how
ever, there are many interesting ques-
tions. II seems very certain that our
battleships in the event of war will
get little or no opportunity to show
their qualities at first, and they would
most probably remain safe in harbor
behind mine fields awaiting an emery
ency demanding their presence on the
high seas. .....
$50 long as the German high sea
fleet is bottled up in its own waters
by the British fleet there seems no
reason to assume that the situation in
this respect is going to change, and as
the great main British fleet can more
than take care of the Germans, our
battleships would hardly be called
upon to seek the German fleet, or per-
form patrol duty along our coasts or
on the high seas, and make themselves
food for German submarines.
1T is known that the Germans for
the last two years have been turning
their attention to the construction of
lighter craft, such as submarines and
seagoing torpedo boat destroyers and
light cruisers of new and improved
types, and less attention has been paid
to the construction Of big capital ships.
What our navy then will be called
upon to meet in the event of war will
be the submarine menace to our ship
ping at sea and along our coasts. This
work will require many fast torpedo
boat destroyers and fast submarine
chasers, well armed, for it may be
safely assumed the Germans are put
ting guns of powerful calibre on the
new craft. To protect our commerce
on the high seas will be the role of
cruisers and torpedo boat destroyers.
Some of our submarines, with the
skill and daring for which our officers
and seamen are noted, may make their
mark, and some Of the light ships
would help in patrol work. If convoy
is necessary, it will be done with our
lighter craft. We therefore see no
particular role for the battleship, ex-
cept as a reserve force to meet the
German high sea fleet in case that
fleet ever gains the high seas, or per-
haps in bombarding some naval base,
which seems very unlikely"

DEMANDS FOR COPPER FROM EUROPE
WOULD EXHAUST AVAILABLE SUPPLY

the sellers are more cautious about
letting the metal go. In the import
ant trade circles improved conditions
are reported. While 1t Is admitted
that there are practically no inquiries
for last half shipments it is stated that
the customers are asking for second
quarter metal in larger volume and
complaints have been heard from some
users in this country of their inability
to place orders for 500 tons distributed
over April, May and June. Individual
foreign consumers are in the market
for copper covering the first half of
this year. The amounts are not large
but the fact that export buying ap-
pears on the verge of being resumed
has had considerable effect on senti-
ment in the trade and has resulted in
giving more confidence to the sellers.
More optimistic views with regard to
the outlook for the coming months Is
heard at present than at any time in
weeks and ii is significant that some
of the smaller dealers who had been
making the low offers only ten days
or two weeks ago have completely re-
versed their position. One such seller
is now entirely out of the market ex.
cept for small quantity OF second
quarter copper. II anything the tone
of the market is somewhat firmer and
the prediction is freely being made
