AMERICAN NAVY TO
BE WORLDS GREATEST
CONSTRUCTION PROGRAMME is
ACCELERATED BY WARS DE-
MANDS-GREATER THAN THE
BRITISH NAVY.

Washington, Aug 27.-Data OBJ
tanned today indicate clearly that by
1921 the United States will have the
most effective navy in the world.
1t has been generally supposed that
the navy had suspended work on
the great five year construction pro
gram of 1916, which contemplated
the earliest possible commissioning
of 10 super-dreadnaught and 8 bat
tie cruisers. Secretary of the Navy
Daniels. however. said that the pre-
liminary work was in progress, not
withstanding the emergency work
which became necessary on other
lines when the United States entered
the war.
The statistics of shipbuilding at
the navy department show that aside
from the capital ship construction
the government has building and will
have completed as ships in 1921.
700 ships available for war purpos-
es. At least 500 of these will be
afloat before the close of the present
year.
It was stated yesterday that the
primary object of the navy program
of 1916 was to make navy second
to none in the world" The war,
however. with its forced demands on
American ship building, bids fair
to make the United Statesc navy
easily the first in the world.
The original program called for a
five year period of completion. That
was narrowed down to three years.
but the rush work on torpedo de-
stroyers and submarine chasers has
demonstrated to the experts that
with the war well out of the way in
| 1919 II will be possible with all the
abor and material at hand to com
ate the whole program and more
necessary by 1921. That program
led for 10 battleships of the most
owed and modern type with a
am caliber gun; 10 battle cruis

and about so submarines. The de
rover program was not suspended

v.t permissible, but the torpedo con
struction has increased enormously
because Of the concentration Of thai

that must be yours TO have laid so

AGREEMENT MADE
ON PROHIBITION

Washington, Aug. 27.-With gen
eral informal understanding to pro
vide for nation wide bone dry
prohibition, beginning July /, 1919
and continuing during the war, the
Senate tomorrow will resume con
sideration of the prohibition measure
which has been pending for many
months.
Leaders of both wet and dry fac.
tions late today announced that the
compromise negotiated to postpone
the effective date of absolute prohi
bition from Jnuary 1, 1919, as pro
posed in the pending bill, until July
l next Prompt passage of the meas
use with the compromise included
was predicted.
Under the compromise arranged by
leaders of the two senate factions,
manufacture of beer and wines would
stop May /, 1919, instead Of Novem-
Der 1, 1918, as provided in the pres
ent bill Production of distilled bev'
erages already has ceased under the

Wine interests are expected to
make a final fight to postpone op

FRENCH CAPTURE

cording to La Journal. large SUD
marine. of which he was second II
command, had just torpedoed Brit
ish steamer between Malta and Sicily
The German was waiting to see the
vessel sink when two French patrol
boats emerged from the fog and
sank the U-boat.
OF the crew of rs only one Officer
and four men were rescued by the
patrol boat.
While being taken TO Toulon the
officer appeared i'll at ease. When
he thought no one was looking he
tried to throw some papers overheard
but a sailor seized his arm. He re-
fused TO answer questions but an ex-
animation of the papers explained
his uneasiness.
La Journal asked if the man who
committed the most vile, the most
barbarous and the most cowardly
act in the annals of war" is merely
to be sent to prison camp.
A dispatch from Toulon last Friday
which described the sinking of
German submarine in the Mediter-
ranean by patrol boats. added that
the mate of the submarine attempted
to commit suicide when brought on
board a rescue ship. The man ap-
peared to be insane and was reported
to have said that the lost U-boat
had torpedoed the Lusitania.
The German admiralty, according
to advices from London on August
10, had admitted that Lieutenant
Schweiger was killed when a U-boat
that he commanded struck a mine
in the North sea- A dispatch said
that his death occurred in September,
1916.

All naval officials believe the
German grand fleet will be removed
even for purposes of comparison
after the war. Before 1914 England
was easily first, Germany second and
the United States third. The predic-
tions now as to the place the United
States win fill in the naval history
of the world are, say the authorities,
certain to be realized.
