U. S. NAVY NOW SECOND
Contender For Highest Honors For
First Time in Recent Years-Ger-
many Stands Third.

Washington, Aug. 16.-The rapid
rise of the United States as a naval
power during the past two years is
graphically demonstrated in figures
showing the sea strength of the vari
Gus world powers, compiled by the
Navy Departments office of naval in
telligence. They show that the
United States, close pressed by
France in 1917 for its place as third
naval power in the world, is now
second only to Great Britain, and is
at present pushing to completion a
building program that will make the
American Navy, for the first time in
recent history, formidable conten-
der for first naval honors.
A little more than two years ago,
the figures show, Germany, then sec
ond naval power, boasted more than
100 more ships of all classes than
the United States, with a total ton
mage exceeding that of the American
Navy by nearly 100000 tons. Great
Britain's fleet at that time number
ed total of $50 ships, aggregating
2,375,564 tons, as compared with
Germany's 262 ships and 1,058,24O
tons, and the United States 153
