s=s Russian Navy Cause For Concern

London, May 16-A GermaniZed Russian navy is one of the many European spectreS that is worrying those who are thinking about the next wal.
 Soviet Russia has ships, arsenaIs and many yards and all of this un- hampered by any restrictions laid down by the Washington conference.
 Germany has a trained naval per sonne1, capable of administering the Russian navy with an efficiency and technique which it has never known.
 The Russian fleet has been rapidly deteriorating since 1917, but it is re- ported to be in such condition that it might be rapidly made ready for ac- tive service. German naval artisans are regarded as thoroughly competent to do this work.
 In 1917 there was, a considerable construction in Russia, but these have never been completed. With the aid of German brains these vessels might eb completed, and while the Russian most modern. it would be far from obsolete and would offer a formidable naval opponent to any power upon the seas.
 Table of Strength.
 The following table shows the pres ent strength of the Russian fleet, which is divided between the Baltic and Black Seas, with small forces in the White Sea and on the Caspian.
 Pre-dreadnoug:h ug:hts-Eight, four with damaged engines.
 Dreadnoughts-Ffve ,one uncom- pleted.
 Battle cruisers-Four. all tncom- p1ete.ss
 Cruisers-Eight, one damaged.
 Light cruisers-Nine, eight incom- plete.
 Destroyers-One hundred and eight twenty incomplete.
 Submarifles-For three.
 Attempt is now being made by the cipl1ne of the fleet and to put it on the same basis which prevailed be- fore the revolution. Officers now have separate quarters and respect for rank is being demanded.
 The Russian fleet is organized in White Sea and Caspian. Each divis- ion is under a separate command and there is a political commissar in charge of education attached to every unit.
 There is a. general awakening of interest in naval affairs on the part of the Russians. according to we'll founded reports here, and this new interest is attended by indications that the Soviet authorities are at tempting to create anew the Russian naval strength.
 A combination of Russian naval re- sources and German skill might pro duces a menace to the present inter national naval balance, arranged at the Washington conference.
 British naval intelligence auth horities are keeping a watchfuI eye upon Russia's naval activities and when Russia finally comes into the com nunity of nations it is certain that pledges with regard to her future na- val activities.

Plans to merge the street car
lines of the District were revived
yesterday by the Commissioners in
submitting a report to the Senate
District Committee.
Senator l.. Heisler Ball. chairms n
of the committee. has drawn a bill
now pending in the Senate which
provides for a consolidation of the
traction companies with the Poto-

chairman is anxious to have this
bill passed to allow the companies
to merge, as it Is impossible to do
SO now owing to the passage of a
law which prohibited merger of
public utilities operating within the
District.
By removing the restriction, the
chairman thinks the several cor.
porations will endeavor to effect a
consolidation. In the event that no
attempt is made to merge the va
rious companies. a more drastic law
