STRENGTH :
Of NAVY WILL
Be INCREASED
American Ships Must Bear
Big Burden in Patrolling
Seas, Daniels Predicts.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 14-An i'm
portant part In the proposed interna-
tional policing of the seas after the
war is expected to fall to the Ameri.
can Navy. For that reason, it was
learned today, there is no prospect OF
any reduction In the present naval
strength, and the administration In
stead plansNto press urgently for the
passage OF the additional three-year
building program recently laid before
congress by Secretary Daniels.
The cessation of hostilities in Europe
II Is believed, will permit concentra-
ton OF energy on speeding up the cap
ital ship program held back heretofore
by the necessity of producing special
anti-submarine flotillas to meet the
German undersea campaign.
Because the country has been less
hard hit by the war than the great
European powers, 1t may assume a
disproportionate share of the sea po-
lice work for time at least
In any event, Secretary Daniels said
today it is his desire to keep the build
Ing program moving so rapidly that
there will be no doubt Of the ability of
the United States to furnish it's full
quota OF naval power, when the time
comes
Force Must Maintain Security.
As TO disarmament possibilities in
GUIDED in the new world program to
be worked out it was pointed out that
president Wilson had thus far pro-
posed reduction of ornaments only to
point consistent with domestic secur-
ity In view of the present uncertain
situation Of the world, no one seeks

Complete estimates of the Navy De-
artments requirements for the 1920
seal year, were. sent to congress to-
Jay by Secretary Daniels and Chair
raan Padgett of the naval committee
announced that hearings for drafting
he naval appropriation bill win be
negun by the committee next Tuesday
Mr.. Padgett declined to disclose the
estimates. Secretary Daniels has an
nounced, however, that they include
second three-year building program,
"ailing for construction of ten addi-
lfional superdreadnoughts, six battle
ruisers, and 40 smaller vessels at a
ost of s600,000,000. third of which
