despite the situation resulting from

Furthermore the change in the
complexion of the cabinet will no;

policies, particularly these policies
affecting Shartung and Siberia.

Japan sincerely hopes that an

Washington, Nov. 9-Back of the
scenes where the American naval
program is being mapped out for
presentation to the conference on
limitation OF armament there's an
interesting discussion going on as
to the value of battle cruisers. Can
the United States afford to let
Japan excel in this type of vessel
which ever since the battle of Jut-
land has stirred up naval critics?
There are two schools of thought
those who believe the battleship
is the craft that must eventually
bear the brunt of a sea struggle,
and those who believe thaI without
battle cruisers the United States
cannot hope to compete with Japan
in the Pacific.
Six Cruisers Building.
The truth is the United States
has six battle cruisers building and
would enter the coming conference
with much more ease of mind if
those vessels were already in com
mission. For many years the move
ment for reduction of armament
has suffered because the leading
naval powers did not wish to place
themselves on an inferior basis.
The present tendency of the pow
ers is to preserve the ratio of
strength that exists but TO cut
down the expense of useless ships
that is. ships which would be
useless if everybody agreed to dis
pose of auxiliary Graf, now out of
date.
Is Japan stronger than the
United States on the sea? The ac-
tCal statistics would seem to show
the United States as superior. but
the naval experts are skeptical.
Tney say the battle Of Jutland rev.
olulionized everything that the
battle cruiser is vital. And OF
course the United States is weak
in that direction. though opinion
may differ as to whether the weak
ness could he overcome by the pre-
ponderance of battleships.
Study Official Figures.
Anyway, it is essential in order
to know just what the naval ex-
perts are talking about, to study
the official figures giving the latest
