May Extend Holiday"

Washington, Sept. 23 LP-Accept- ance by the principal naval powers of the American proposal for an eX- tension of the ten years holiday in the construction of capital ships to 15 years would make necessary the negotiations of a supplemental draft 10 the first naval limitation treaty signed here eight years ago.
 The expectation here is that the American proposition will be agreed to by Great Britain, Japan, France and Italy at the projected limitation conference in London next January, with a saving of millions to each nation would be replaced during that time.
 Whatever agreement is reached is regarded as more than likely to contain a provision under which Great Britain and the United States would reduce their capital ship fleets to fifteen craft, as provided for in the 1921 pact. Whether the re- tirement of existing craft would he on the schedule laid down in the original treaty is a matter for de- termination by the conference.
 Under the Washington agreement, Great Britain would retire five of it's present twenty capital ships while the United States would place three out Of commission by 1886, the date of the expiration of the agreement This would bring each fleet down to the ultimate treaty total of 15 for each nation.
 The three ships now constituting the backbone of the scouting fleet. which is based on the Atlantic, prob ably would be the craft this nation would place out Of commission. They are the Utah, Florida and the Wy omins. The Utah and Florida will reach the age limit of 20 year in l951 and the Wyoming in 1882.
 Would Save Million
 should these vessels be decom- missioned, millions in maintenance cost would be saved and the crews would he available for manning some of the new 10000 ton cruisers when completed,
 With these ships retired, the United States would have left only one Finch gun W@rCr1ft, eleven mounting 14-inch guns and three equipped with 16-inch rifles, the largest naval weapon in the world today.
 After Great Britain retired It's i've ships, it's battle fleet would com urise thirteen craft mounting l5-lnch rifles and too. the great Rodney and Nelson. carrying nine 16-inch guns each. In the fifteen, would be seN- eral battle cruisers, ships of hlSh spoed, but light armor protection.
 None of the British ships reaches the twenty years age limit until 1884. Then five would be in that class. the battle cruiser Tiger anu the Battleship Bcnbow, Iron puk"' Marlborough and Empress of lndia. The Tiger probably would be select ed for Aecommissioning, as she car ries 13.5-inch guns and her retire ment along with the four batueShlN9 named would leave the smallest main gun in the British Navy 1o- inch rifle.
