U. s. PLANS GREATEST NAVY.
Wilson Approves Project Unless Peace
Meet Ends Warship Building.

Washington, Dec. 3l.-Secretary
Daniels yesterday put the administra-
tion squnreIy on record in favor OF
building the biggest navy in the world
unless the peace conference reaches
and the nations ratify an agreement to
put an end TO warship construction.
The secretary went step farther
than the general board OF the navy
which declared three weeks ago Tor a
navy equal to the most powerful main
tanned by any nation in the world.
President Wilson fully approves the
policy set forth today, MIR. Daniels
stated.
III prepared statement he read TO
the house naval affairs committee, the
secretary said
1T is my firm conviction that ii the
conference at Versailles does not result
in general agreement to put an end
to naval building on the part OF all the
nations, the United States must bend
her will and bend her energies, must
give her men and give her money to
the task of the creation Of incompar-
ably the greatest navy In the world.
She has no designs upon the terri-
tory or the trade OF any other nation
or group of nations. But she is pledg-
ed TO the support OF the Monroe Doc
trine; she is pledged to the protection
OF the weak. wherever they may suffer
threats: she is incnmpa rably rich in
natural resources; IL need be, she
must be incompafably strong In de-
tense against aggressors and In offcnse
against evil doen.,'

Interest in Trip to, Italy

Paris. Dec. 31--Interest is manifested
among conference delegates and in
French political circles in President
Wilson's trip to Italy because of the
importance of the subjects he Is eX-
pected to discuss there.
Foremost among these subjects. 1t is
supposed. will be questions relative to
the Adriatic. Fiume and the Dalmatian
coast. concerning which the Jugo-
Slavs and the Italians are not in ac-
cord. Tine pretentions of the Jugo-
Slavs to Fiume and the Dalmation
coast are founded on their claim to a
preponderance Of the nationals in the
population there. According to the
views of the Jugo- Slav leaders the
controversy involves the principle Of
the right of the peoples to dispose OF
themselves. This is one of the first
concrete questions Nof~this kind that
President Wilson will be called upon
to discuss.
Italy's historic claims. together with
her interest in ample protection along
her adriatic coast, will naturally also
be considered. Talks by the president
with Premier Orlando and Admiral
Thaon Di Revel, an authority on mat
ters pertaining to the Adriatic and
commanded of the Italian naval forces
now occupying the Dalmatian coast.
are expected to clear up and conciliate
many of the claims put forward by
each side. eTT
