AMERICAN CRUISER
BUILDING PROGRAM
PLANS PROGRESSING
President Hoover Directs Activ-
tiles; Federal Budget Pro-
visions Are Made

Washington, June A. E, - The
American cruiser building program
will be carried forward by President
Hoover as laid down by congress, and
provision for new ships will be made
in the next federal budget.
The administration recognizes that
work toward construction of Is adj
ditional 10, 000-ton fighting ships is
made mandatory under the program
until an agreement for reduction of
sea ornaments is reached by the
leading nations and ratified by the
senate. and the president has no in
tention of attempting to modify or
abandon that policy.
Contrary interpretations drawn
from the presidents Memorial day
address and the statement issued
afterward by Secretary Stimson arc
described IN high administration cir
clcs as erroneous.
Actual Agreement Unlikely
Although the administration is
heartily in favor of q reduction of
naval ornaments on a new basis for
cvaluating relative naval strength, it
regards al actual agreement as UNI
likely in the near future. Without
such an agreement. ratified by the
senate, no modification or abandon
mcnt of the American building pro-
gram can be considered.
AS the disarmament situation now
stands. the preparatory commission is
marking time while the principal
powers arc studying and undertaking
to make practical application to their
OWN navies of the "yardstick' formula
presented by Ambassador Hugh S.
Gibson to the Geneva conference.
Officials here say that. since highly
technical questions arc involved. slow
progress is to be expected. First. the
naval experts of the other powers
must determine how the "yardstick"
can be applied to their own navics,
taking into account their individual
needs for certain types and classes OF
ships.
Percentages Will Differ
Having made this determination,
they, like the American experts, must
then settle upon the ratio in the
whole equation that is to be given to
tonnage, to armament. and to the
other factors. The opinion here is
that the experts of 10 two nations
will arrive at precisely the same figure
Of percentage.
After the. experts of the five lead
ing sea powers have computed their
percentage scale, they will report to
the preparatory commission, which
adjourned subject to call.
Reasscmbling in Switzerland, the
experts Of the various nations then
will be faced with the problem Of
composing their differences in the CT
fort to reach a common ~"yardstick'
applicable to all the navics.

FREDERICK Griebenow saw in Europe.
especially in Vienna, Oh his recent
tour to the Austrian capital, at to-
days luncheon. His talk was the
feature of the luncheon.
There also was some humor injected
into the meeting by receipt OF a mock
complaint from New Rockford. charg-
ing two prominent mcmbers-kcpt
there overnight by automobile brcak-
down on the recent club trip-With
failing to settle hotel charges Of SIT
each for lodging, breakfast and dam
age. The matter was placed III the
hands of Gordon Cox, who discovered
a defense in the complaint. inasmuch
as it inadvertently alleged the Of
Tense TO have been committed May Il,
1929.
The matter of celebrating the zero
hour at the opening of kiWanis In
ternational, June "a, was brought up
by President Worth Lumry and re-
ferred to the entertainment commit
tee of the month for action.
The luncheon was attended by c
eral members of the pardon board. IN
Guiding as guest Dr.. d. I. Robertson,
Fargo. Other guests were August G.
Earkc. new manager OF tho Central
Lumber company here: H. w. Sven
son of Devils Lake. former judge CT
Ramsey county: Joseph Shuckard.
Willow City; and c. l.. Foster, a new
member Of the club.
DR.. Griebenow told Of the prclimln-
ary travels through England, France
and Italy which preceded his visit TO
Vienna. He found the most tourists
III Paris and he described the absence
Of comforts Americans arc acCus-
toned to in their wi country AS ono
OF the striking features OF travel in
France.
In Rome the doctor saw the ccrc-
monies of the Golden Jubilee OF the
pope at St. Peters. Florence i'm
pressed him with its paintings and
sculptures. Venice gave him the
thrill Of noisclcssncss and beauty.
Vienna, with lis communistic gov
ernment. impressed him economically.
He found taxes high-the cost vi
owning a Ford being $3.50 a year.
Water is free, he said, and electricity
costs about a cent a kiloWatt-hOur.
He praised the school system with its
100 kindereartens. Into this fits the
opera. without a knowledge of which
one is not cultured in Vienna, he said.
While he was in Vienna, said the
doctor. there was great depression
and MANY bcggarS abOunded. There
is no opportunity to the young OF the
city. Many would like to migrate to
this country, but the American i'm
migration quotas prevent, he said.
It was suggested that the doctor
continue the talk at a future meeting
as he had just begun to scratch the
surface Of the subject of Vienna.
