j. s. To BUILD
a WARSH|PS
NEXT YEAR
By international News Service


Abandoning hope that the pre-.
liminary naval discussions at
London will result in any sub.
Stantial disarmament in the near
future, the Administration today
moved forward with the program
to build up the American Navy
to full treaty strength.
The Navy Department had sub
mitted to the Budget Bureau the
1885 building program calling
for the construction Of "a new
warshipS to cost approximately
$4,000, 900.
Secretary Of the Navy Swanson
also was seeking to obtain an adj
ditional 10000 men and LOO
Marines to increase the compile.
ment Of existing ships. On this
request, the Budget Bureau was
reported to be baking and the
matter was expected to be taken
direct to the White House.
No Reduction Seen
The 241Ship building program
for 1886 is in line with the Vim
son act authorizing the President
to build up the Navy to full treaty
strength.
In the slim hope held previously
that it might be possible to effect
substantial reduction of naval
ornaments at the naval confer
ence next year, these plans were
not pushed forward. However,
Japan's adamant stand for parity
and England's demand for the
right to build an additional 20
cruisers has convinced the Ad.
ministration that there is little
hope of any substantial reduction
in naval ornaments in the next
few years.
New Aircraft Carrier
The 1885 program calls for
construction of one 14500-ton air
craft carrier to cost approximately
$23,180,000. It will replace the
present experimental carrier Lang
ley.
It also calls for the following:
Two 10,000-ton 8-inch gun cruis-
ers, at a total cost of $25, 900, 900
to replace the Omaha and Mil
waukee, both of which will be
obsolete by the time the new YES
sells are complete.
Three destroyer squadron lead
ers of 1850 tons each, to cost
total Of $12,000,000.
Twelve regular duty destroyers
OF 1900 tons each, to cost about
$4,000, 900 in all.
Six submarines to total about
$14,500,000.

Farmer Tells AAA
That Pigs Is Pigs
BY International News Service

BY International News Service
At least one farmer-beneficiary
of the AAA program refuses to
fight against nature, which has
not changed the axiom that pigs
is pigs"
In a letter to the AAA, which
was not made public, he returned
a Government check, sent him for
his part in restricting the output
of little pigs. His letter explained
that, much as he would like to
keep the check, his influence was
not sufficient to persuade his hogs
from having little pigs. One had
just favored him with a litter
simultaneously with the arrival of
the check, and, he wrote, he was
doing the only square thing"

ROCHESTER,, n. Y, Jan. l.
GjP1 y Conclusions should not
be drawn relative to the effective
ness of *he administrations gold
buving policy without a full APP
probation of the facts which are
governing the operation Of the
plan. -,
Standard in April, there has been
much Talk and confusion about
the matt er of initiation and espe-
ciallv about the relationship be-
tween gold and prices. Much OF
the misunderstanding arises from
the Interpretation placed on day
today price fluctation. In order
fully to appreciate what has hap
pened, changes over long, pc
Rod Of time should be examined:
During the period from April
IT to July IS, the price OF goia
rose 46 per cent. Prices of basic
commodities and industrial stocks
also rose correspondingly. From
July IS to October q, the world
price of gold fell somewhat;
Prices of basic commodities and
industrial stocks declined ~ even
more. ON Sunday, October ",
the presi dent announced the es,
tablishmelnt of the present gold
purchasing policy applied through
the RFC. This plan checked the
decline ia commodity prices ana
industrial, stocks witch was taking
place with alarming rapidity and
turned heir prices upward. BY
Tnvembe,N &c, the RFC price Of
n caJJ Stood, at $3.50. During the
Ssnoe ne,.iod, the London, OF
would market, price Of gold in
JoIIars w,as increased to 1884.
The rocor d shows that prices of
Las;o con.lmodities/ and industrial
stocks ALSO rose during 'n'S pc
Rod. ,-.., ,c Io,;+o
tho fact that the RFC price of
moId has gone above $34, the
tHy W ma rket price, or the effec-
tive nricea of gold in terms of
dollars in foreign exchange, has
JonIinod and has recently been
beIow $4,000. As result, since
Tovember Is, the index of prices
of commodities has failed to rise
in FACT, has declined somewhat.
Thic was to be expected be-
canso THE RFC price for gold is
~ ,,1,, hnt, thn
an effective price only Whell tlle
london price of gold is the same.
II tbore,fore remains for the ad-
~; n;straytion to make the RFC
nr;cn a,h effective price by pur-
CHASING freely all kinds Of gold
that ;S offered in this country.
If this lis done, it will have the
effect of moving the world mar
ket price to this country.
When, and if this is done, the
experielace to date seems abso-
lutelv to prove that prices of
stocks and basic commodities in
This country will move with the
world price in dollars, and will be
directly influenced by the price
that this country will pay for
gold.
The presidents plan to date
has tested out the reliability of
the Wa rren gold theory, has set
ND a management for the buying
of gold by this country and has
Unanswered the United States
into a position where it can be
effective in preventing further
price declines and the attendant
business recession, and may, by
making the RFC price an effee-
tive world price, gradually re-
store the 1926 price level in this
country without the slightest fear
of wild or uncontrolled initiation.
