To Meet All Requirements.

THE new program of 156 vessels, =
said Secretary Daniels, "prescribes
specific numbers of battleships and
battle cruisers only there being ten
battleshlps asked for and six battle
cruisers. AS regards smaller vessels,
although the total number is to be
140, it is simply asked that they be
of types already approved and in ex-
istence, or of new types which may
develop during the life of the pro-
gram. the details being left to the dis
cretion of the navy department.
'The new three year program is a
continuation of the policy adopted in
1916 of increasing the navy, and con-
templates its steady upbuilding and
, improvement 1t is in line with the
policy adopted by this government
and which has met with the entire
approval of the American people of
building up a navy stong enough to
meet all requirements. This program
if authorized by congress. as ] am
confident it will be. will give us six
teen capital ships that will be the
equal of any afloat at the time they
are built The battleships and battle
cruisers authorized in the first three
year program will be unexcelled by
those of any other navy, and the
country may rest assured that. in the
new construction authorized, our con-
structors will produce the most power
full and effective of fighting craft.
Big Ships Needed.
THE imperative necessity of turn
ing out as rapidly as possible all the
destroyers and other types of craft
needed in the war against the subma-
rine for the necessities of warfare for
the time required us to concentrate
upon this clause of construction
has led to the fear in some quarters
that in devoting so much necessary
attention to the building of smaller
craft. we might fail some in looking
out for the future in building the
capital ships on which the strength
of navy ultimately depends. This
the naval authorities have always had
in mind. The three year program
adopted in 1915 provided for ten bat
tleships and six battle cruisers. Now
we ask for as many more. to be built
as those formerly authorized are COM
pleted. and facilities become available.
THE total expenditure authorized
upon this new program is $500, ,000,-
900, the provision for the first year
being third of this. 5000, 900, 600.
This is exclusive of estimates for
emergency appropriations for new
vessels to be built under war urgency,
which total $140.000,000. and also of
estimates for continuing and pushing
the old program. the emergency con-
struction of destroyers under way. etc,
"1neluding the 10000, 900 for
which, authorization is requested in
the new three year program, the total
estimates of the department for ship
construction, including armor and
armament, amount this year to s972,-
900, 900. The total amount recon-
mend for appropriation next year for
ship construction, that is for COM
pleting vessels already authorized and
for new vessels, is $572.090. 900"
