The house naval committee re-
ceived from General Pershing, a
warning against fostering a national
spirit OF pacihsm and unpreparedness.
This warning tempered his approval
of a world disarmament conference
and was accompanied by dcciara-
tion that until all world powers had
agreed on disarmament policy, it
would be "unwise and unsafe" for
the nUited States to discontinue car
rying out its army and navy policies.
Preceding army bill debate, the
house received from the appropria-
tons committee. the annual naval

ing work on II super dreadnaughts,

1921 Naval Bill
Has Half Billion
Appropriation
Record Breaking Sum Will Be
: Necessary 10 Complete
Building Program En-
barked Upon.

! Washington, Feb. NEARLY half
billion dollars will be required to
complete the great naval building
program embarked upon in 1916, the
house appropriations comrittec esti-
mated today i'll reporting the annual
naval appropriation bill for the fiscal
Nycar 1922. The committee said that
while the total cost of completing
the program was originally placed
al $544,700,000 increased cost of ma
terials and labor probably would in
crease the total cost to $o72,93l 900,
OF which $538,270,000 has been ap-
Ipropriated.
The bill reported today, which
carries a total OF S395, ,504, 444.25, pro-
vides S90,000,000 for continuing con-
struction next year.
This amount" the accompanying
report stated, will allow the work
to be prosecuted during the coming
fiscal year about as rapidly as it has
been possible to proceed thus far in
the current fiscal year"
Seventeen Ships Unfinished.
The 1916 program authorized 156
ships. Many of these have been COM
pieted, but II battleships and battle
cruisers and a number of auxiliaries
still are under construction.
The bill as it reached the house to-
day carried $57,775,129.7 less than
the amount appropriated a year ago
ands S2S4,0ll ,28724 less than the
amount requested by the Navy de-
partment.
Besides the cut in the enlisted
personnel OF the navy from 145,O0O
tC 100000 heretofore announced, the
committee also cut the marine corps
from 27400 to 10000 enlisted men.
No reduction, however. will be made
in the number of officers in either
branch of the service.
Will Mean 384 Vessels.
A force Of 10000 men. the COM
mittee said. would be sufficient to
keep at. least 384 vessels in opera
ton. or 81 more than were in the en-
tire navy in 1916.
The total appropriation for ava
ton is S6,o13,43l, reduction OF
S28,086, $50 from estimates and Sl3.-
086,000 less than was appropriated
for this year.
An appropriation of s550,000 for
work on yards and stations on the
Atlantic and gull coasts is recon-
mended, while "a ,907 900 is proposed
for yards on the Pacific coast and
in Hawaii. Among the provisions
for expenditures on the Pacific coast
and in Hawaii are S325,000 for the
Mare Island. Cal, navy yard;
sl,40S,0O0 for the Puget Sound,
Wash, navy yard; $l,025,000 for the

600 for similar base at Pearl Har-
bor, Hawaii. The committee recon-
mended an appropriation of 100000
for the navy yard at Philadelphia, as
compared with S1,200,000 appropria-
ted for this year; cut the appropria-
ton for the Norfolk. Va. navy yard
