u. s. LEADS BUILDING

The building plans of other
major maritime countries, all of
which are at war, are small in
comparison to the American pro-
gram and can be expected TO do
little more in most categories than
maintain the present strength, if
they are able TO do that Excep-
tions. are construction of eight new
battleships by Japan and $50 SUBJ
marines by Germany.
Builders of naval vessels are
having far less trouble about sup
plies like steel and machine tools
than are the makers Of planes and
tanks and guns. The one serious
brake being applied 10 the ship
building program is the matter OF
strikes. which already has caused
delay especially on the West Coast.
Despite this drag, however, ships
are being turned out on schedule
or fairly close to schedule in most
instances and the ships being built
are asserted by experts 10 be
superior TO the comparable vessels
OF any other nation.

with heavy increases in taxation

National defense leaders believe
the best guarantee that America

world lies in the fact that II al
ready Is the greatest naval power,
and IFS sea and ocean-air strength
Is increasing daily.
Following is a bird s-eye view Of
comparative naval strength, based
on the latest available official eSti-
mates. The American figures are
beng rapidly expanded by addl-
tions from the shipyardS, while the
figures for England. Germany and
Italy may be high due TO unan-
nounced war losses.
The United States navy has a
total of approximately 325 battle
ships, aircraft carriers cruisers,
deStroyers and submarines. Bri-
tain's estimated total is about 300
Germany $50, Italy 240, Russia
300 and Japan 265.

FARM. LABOR STRENGTH

Action Of the House in sum-
marily rejecting anti = defense
strike legislation. together with
authority for the President 10
seize and operate defense plants,
was construed by some congress
sional observers as putting a
damper on price-control measures.
Influence OF organized labor on
legislation was clearly demon
strated in the House fight. Labor,
together with organized farm in
terestS could kill any price-con-
troll bill. il was generally conceded.
Henderson. who warned a House
committee that the cost of living
is bound 10 rise and urged rent
control in this boom city, was be-
lieved 10 have used the Washing
