MILL POND WON'T DO
 FOR NEXT NAVAL SCRAP

WASHINGTON, May 9. Ihe worlds next great naval battle, II there ever is one, will not be staged in a mil pond, so to speak.
 Figures presented to Congress by Secretary of the Navy Denby show that the future navad battles of "civiliZation' will be Gargantuan III proportions. The opposing fleets, tc an observer high in the air, will re- semble two monsters, their bodies hundreds of miles long, flashing at each other and whirling about in the sea.
 The modern fleet, in battle forma- ton, extends for about 300 miles over the sea and is about eighty miles broad Obviously an engage ment between two such columns turning and winding around each other over the ocean, will require considerable fairway, with lots o1 room for the bystanders to run fol cover.
