upon America as truly the land OF

AS to. the battle cruisers, the board
says that none Of the four to be
scrapped is near enough finished to
be completed and launched and that
all four must be "disassembled or
cut up" The board considers it
possible, however, that the Constel-
lation can be sold on the stocks.
Favor Outright Sale.
The ships building at navy yards
are recommended for sale as they
stand to private firms for disposition
as required by the treaty, but the
board urges that "useable material"
from all ships such as guns, ma
chinery and other equipment 'be re-
sefved for use in the proper ac-
counts"
The report notes that under the
treaty, vessels to be scrapped must
be rendered unuseable for war and
recommends that firms to which
ships under construction or existing
ships may be sold be required to fur
nish bond that the treaty terms will
be carried out. The board also says
that it has considered and discarded
such suggestions for disposition of
the ships as sinking at sea, junk
ing on percentage basis contracts,
and destruction by the government
itself, believing that the government
will benefit most from outright sale
OF the vessels to the highest bidders.
