informed the International News
Service today that the American
navy In just about twice as big as
Is necessary, and that II will be re-
duced by approximately one-half-
appropriations; personnel. both en-
listed and commissioned; ships, shore
stations. and other factors that go
to make up a navy.
The big navies OF the world are
now limited" they said. why do
We need a big navy? Besides. we
have an economy program to put
through. and we need the money"
The first touch of the knife will
be felt in appropriations for upkeep.
The budget estimate calls for an
appropriation OF s425, s52,367.
This will be cut at least $225. 000,-

to June 30, 1923.
IN the original estimate was $780,.
900 900 for the completion Of the
1915 building program. This will be
knocked out.
In the original estimate was S145.-
154.l9l for the pay and subsistence
Of the navy. They aim to cut this
in half by the simple expedient Of
reducing the personnel.
VIII Leave $4,000 Men.
The present authorized strength Of
the navy is approximately 100000
men and $500 officers. Before the
House gets through with it's plans
the strength OF the navy will be not
more than $4,000 men and 5000 Off

The Congressional primers are
frankly expecting a howl to go up
from navy heads over the slashing
program prepared. They are pre-

the assertion that the war bogey has
been chased away now for fifteen
years. at least, and that this fact can
only be translated TO the voters and
taxpayers Of the country by reduced
expenditures and consequent reduc-
tons in Federal taxes.
