COOLIDGE
FOR AIR
FLEET
Policy Announced at White
House-More Planes and
Fewer BattIeships, Plan
By H. K. REYNOLDS,
International News Service.

Maintenance Of bigger and
better air fleet and decreased ex-
penditures for battleships are to
be features of the future policy
Of the United States navy, It was
announced officially at the White
House this afternoon.
President Coolidge has inter-
vened forcibly in the naval prob
lem, as forecast by International
News Service two weeks ago, in
an effort to settle the controversy
raging between the Navy Depart
ment and the Budget Bureau.
Result Of World Flight.
President Coolidge believes that
the decentralization Of the globe
by air, now almost completed By
American army fliers, has demon
strated conclusively that the day
of the battleship Is waning and
that the principal arm of the ma
tional defense in future years must
be the aerial units.
The Navy Department is now en-
gagged, officials said, in determining
how much appropriations for battle
ship maintenance and repair could
be slashed so that the money thus
saved could he turned to the de-
velopment of military airplanes ana
airships.
This new naval policy was made
known at the White House follow
ing a Cabinet meeting, in which the
naval budget problem was dis
cussed.
President Coolidge was said to be
determined to keep the budget for
the fiscal year 1885 small enough
to roll up a surplus at the end of
the year, but at the same time
wanted the American navy to be
developed along the most modern
lines and in such a way that its
effectiveness would not be impaired.
Questions at Issue.
The Presidents order for Wilbur
to return forthwith to the Capital
reached the Navy Secretary at San
Diego, CAL, and he has advised the
White House by telegraph that he
expects to arrive here in time for
the Friday Cabinet meeting.
Wilbur's absence, however, did
not deter the Cabinet from going
into the naval problem at today'a
session.
The chief question at issue is
whether or not the Administration
should approve a reduction Of APP
proximately $50 200, 900 in the naval
estimates for the fiscal year 1886
including a cut Of 100000 from
the sum estimated to be needed fol
the maintenance of the naval AL
fleet.
The Navy Department feels and
has so advised the Bureau of the
Budget that any such sweeping re
auctions in the uavy's estimates will
simply mean that the navy cannon
