COSTLY. TO STOP
SHIP BUILDING


Washington, Feb. Ia six
months suspension Of work on the
1916 naval building program, sched-
uled for completion in 1928. would
result not only in delaying the
commissioning Of much needed
ships, but in greater costs TO the
government, Admiral r. E. Coontz
chief Of naval operations, and Rear
Admiral D. w. Taylor, chief con-
structor of the navy, told the SEN
ate naval committee today in ex-
ecutive session.
The committee has under consid-
Grafton Senator Borah's resolution
inquiring as to the advisability OF
such a suspension, with study Civ
en- meantime as to the best types
Of naval vessels. based on the les
sons Of the World war.
Admiral Taylor explained to the
committee that many of the larger
shipbuilding plants Of the country
had much of their equipment and
resources tied up in contracts with
the government for units Of the
1916 program and that these plants
could not be kept idle for half q
year, with partially completed ships
on the ways, without some compen-
sation from the government.
Scores Of sub contractors would
be similarly affected, he said, esti-
mating the expense of such a de-
lay at $10,000,0o0 at least.
The officers told tie committed
that it was the consensus of opinion
of naval authorities Of all nations
that the battleship and battle
cruiser remained the backbone ol
the feet and that aircraft develop.
ment had not progressed to poin'
where aerial forces seriously men
aced major ships. In view Of this
they added, nothing was to be gain,
ed by suspending work on the Il
major ships under construction
while study Of types was being
made because the study unques
tionably would result in endorse
ment of the major ships.

IOWA SENATE
DROPS WOMAN
OF DAVENPORT
Refuses appointment Of Mrs. W. H,
Snyder to State Beard Of
Control.

Des Moines, Iowa. Feb. Con
firmation Of the appointment of
Mrs. VIII. Snyder Of Davenport Is
member of the state board Of
centr0l, recommended by Governor
N. E. Kendall, was refused today
by the state senate In executive
session.
According to the sentiment of
Davenporters today, the refusal OF
the senate to ratify the nomination
of Mrs. Snyder who resides at 225
East Grant street, Bettendorf, was
based on the grounds that she was
not q man. The fact that she is the
first woman ever to be named on
that body has reused considerable
antagonism to her membership on
the board in the senate and it is
thought that it was due to this rea-
son mainly that her name failed OF
ratification by the state sol0ns sit
ting in executive session.

N Arlington Cemetery.

Washington, Feb. 1.-The return
dom France Of the body of an un-
inown soldier for burial in Arling-
"a national cemetery as a fitting
ntional tribute" to the men who
al in the World war was advo-
rated today by General Pershing
before the house military commit
ke, which is considering a bill for
Aat purpose.
Similar proposals have been dis
approved by Secretary Baker, who
nd that the war department could
i@ break its solemn promise to the
nlatives Of the soldiers that the
bpdies either would be returned to
them or left in France.
Il think this proposal should be
afried out" General Pershing said.
It should be done with a ceremony
nnde as impressive as possible and
syery honor should be paid this un-
lnown man. And it should be sim
N an unknown man. That should
h sufficient to cover all states of
" Union and all branches OF the
Military and naval service"
The general suggested that next
Memorial day should be designed
y the time for the ceremony. He
said he favored Arlington National
cemetery rather than the rotunda
Of the capitol, as has been suggest
Cd, because of the recent sentiment
which attaches to the nationally
Known cemetery.
Major General Lejeune, COM
nandant of the marine corps. who
commanded the End division Of the

Nturn Of the body Of one unknown
