STEP WAS TAKEN IN ANTiciPAr
TON OF NAVAL TREATY !
RATIFICATION.
APPROVED BY THE PRESIDENT
Building Operations Suspended Have
Cost the Government Approx
mately 5000, 900 a Month.

Washington,-Co Construction work on
fourteen, capital ships was suspended
by order OF Secretary DENLY under d.
rection of President Harding. The
step was taken in anticipation Of rati-
6cation of the naval limitation treaty
which resulted from the Washington
conference and under which only
three of the vessels involved will be
completed as war craft. The other II
will be scrapped or converted into
merchant ships under the treaty pro.
visions.

ant Secretary Roosevelt had discussed
with President Harding the terms Of
the treaty affecting the new ships.
Mr.. Harding approved the suggestion
that work be brought to standstill
imm sdiately on the eight superdread-
naughts and six battle cruisers, pend.
ing final action on the treaty. In
round figures the building operations
thus halted have cost the government
approximately $5,OO0,OOO a month. E.
Following ratification Of the
tieaty contracts for the new ships
will be cancelled. The ultimate cost
to the government Of this cancella'
tion cannot be determined in advance
but naval officers believe that a con-
siderable saving will be made
through the action.
Only one capital ship under con-
struction was exempted from sus.
pension order. She is. the Colorado,
more than, 80 per cent complete and
which will be retained in the perma.
nant feet.

stands, the governor went on, is sub
merged in a mass of amendments and
special legislation to the extent that

puzzled. A complete reorganization
Of the county government and the &C
counting systems in operation In them
is the governors aim.
