ing gun elevation and indorsing the
pending $70,000,000 construction

Asked whether the American navy
was equal to that of Great Britain,
Secretary Wilbur offered the report
of experts TO the committee, i'll con-
fldence.
The Secretary stated the United
States had purposely made ships
slower than Great Britain's beliey-
ing the weight in armor and guns
was more valuable than in engines.
Wilbur declared slow vessels de-
'ermined the mobility of the fleet.
The British, he said, had several
slow capital ships. He pronounced
the idea that 1000 pound bomb
dropped would jam the turrets on
a battleship and the shock would
incapacitate the crew, as ridiculous.
Secretary Wilbur stated the prac
ticability of the Shenandoah and
Los Angeles was yet not proven.
