House Group Studies
Of
$1,000 Tons
Asks Cost Estimates on
Bottleships Larger
Than Any in World
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A congressional subcommittee is
exploring the ACCESSIBILITY of giving
the Navy 65,o0o-ton battleships,
vastly bigger and more powerful
than any af1oat or known to be in
prospect abroad.
The House Naval Appropriations
Subcommittee has asked the Navy
Department to prepare estimates
on the cost of such ships-almost
double the size of the fleets biggest.
Coincidentally, Represen t a tt We
Mas, Republican, Of Minnesota,
senior minority member of the
House Naval Committee, recon-
mended battleships up to $4,000
tons in size. He asserted they
would be cheaper in the long run
and would make this country "ab-
solutely invulnerable."
Chairman Scrughan, Democrat,
of Nevada, conceding his appropri-
atoms subcommittee had requested
the cost data on bigger ships, en-
phasized today that the question
of their construction was decidedly
in the exploratory stage and that
no decision had been reached.
Funds for Ships Voted.
At present 35,OOO-ton battleships
form what naval leaders call the
backbone" of the fleet. Congress
voted funds this year to start work
on two 45,000-ton battleships after
hearing testimony that Japan al
ready was at work on at least one
of approximately that size. Of{1cials
said, however, the 45OO0- tonners
still are in the planning stage.
Heretofore the width of the
Panama Canal has been the con-
trolling factor in the size Of this
country's warships, but Representa-
tive Plumley, Republican, of Yer
mont. a member of Mr.. Scrugham's
subcommittee, declared the pro-
posed new set Of locks for the canal.

LONDON, Dec. % R.-British
naval experts. commenting on re-
ports that a United States congress
sional committee was exploring the
possibility of building 65,0O0-ton
battleships, said the war had proved
the need for more and smaller bat
tleships rather than large craft. The
cost of such giants is prohibitive,
they said.

They also commented that Ger

Strong Declaration
On Neutrality Zone
Is Expected Soon

May Intern Worships
Fleeing Into Ports
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A declaration that future viola
tons of the Western Hemisphere
neutrality zone would result in more
than diplomatic action was expected
in authoritative quarters today to
be voiced soon in a joint statement
by the 81 American republics.
Secretary Of State Hull indicated
that an announcement might be
made Tomorrow or Sunday.
Automatic internment of war

was one penalty suggested in the
consultations preceding formulation
of the document. The declaration
will be communicated to Europe's

Another suggestion advanced was

and taking refuge In such ports-
as did the German pocket battleship
Graf Spec at Montevideo-be re-
fused all assistance and be required
to leave or be interned.
1t was anticipated here that the
declaration would be in general
terms, but nonetheless strong In its
statements that the zone created at
the Panama conference in October
must be respected.
The Panama conference decided
that the republics would "endeavor
through joint representation" to OBJ
tain compliance with the neutrality
zone and would hold further con-
situations to determine upon the
necessary measures. Such a con-

Canada Apparently
Opens Way for
Americans 10 Fight
Air Force Reserve
Recruits From Y. S. Would
Lose Citizenship, However

OTTAWA, Dec. % canadian
Press Americans may fight for
Canada in the air, it appeared to-
day, but at the cost of becoming
men without country.
In the army, however, the rules
still provide against the enlistment
Of non-British citizens.
Canadians had a quick eXplana-
ton for reports from the United
Kingdom that about 100 Americans
were in the first Canadian contin-
gent which landed there Sunday
they said the Americans" appar-
emily were Canadians who had re-
sided in the United States or Amer
leans who had become naturalized
British.
Restrictions against enlistment of
aliens in the Canadian militia forces
remain in force and officials said
none was accepted knowingly.
Address Provides "Out."
It is always possible, however, 1t

recruiting officers when Canadian
next-of-kin addresses are provided
Relaxed rules in the air force are
only about two months old.
Until last october man applying
for a commission was required to
be a purely British subject with
purely British parentage; for the
non commissioned ranks an appli-
cant was required to be British
either by birth or naturalization.
A Royal Canadian Air Force Re-
serve was created by an Order in
Council September 10, and on Oc-
tober 10 an Order in Council was
passed which excepted from the
birth and citizenship conditions
those enlisting in the reserve.
The way appears to have been
opened, therefore, for American
recruits.

take the oath of allegiance to the
King.
This does not confer citizenship
on them. but if they are citizens of
the United States they do lose their
American citizenship.
Canadians pointed out that many
Americans served in the World War
in otker than American units and
their American citizenship was re-
stored by special act of Congress.
They also said that an alien who
fought for Canada would have an
almost unquestionable right to Ca
madam citizenship if he applied for
it after the war.
