THE RED FLEET
(NEW YORK TIMES)

The Red Army has so captured the
headlines and the imagination of the
world, as it first stopped the Wehrnacht
and then rolled it back, that most of the
world probably has forgotten that Soviet
Russia also has a fleet. It is a military
arm IN which the Russians take much
pride, c. L. Sulzberger reminds us in q
dispatch to this newspaper, and to which
they can be expected to allot more of
their budget and their interest in the
postwar years. It is the one element
lacking to put them on complete parity
with the two other members of the Big
Three, ourselves and Britain, whose ma
vles now dominate practically all the
worlds oceans and seas.
Since the Russian fleets defeat bv the
japanese at Tsushima Strait in 1905.
and previous destruction of Russian
ships at Port Arthur and Vladivostok.
Russian seapower has played little part
IN world calculations. Her navy has been
largely coastal defense arm, restricted
to operations in the Caspian and Black
Seas and the Baltic. It's larger units had
been purchased from other countries, as
were United States naval vessels up to
few years before the Spanish American
War. Even before the start of the pres
ent war, however, Russia had been paw
ing more and more attention to shipbuild-
ing yards and gun foundries, and had at
tempted recruiting in this country Of
marine architects and ship engineers.
Mr.. Sulzberger revealed in his dispatch
that she also has in operation eleven nav
al schools for training the personnel to
man the ships she hopes to have
According to James Fighting Ships"
the authoritative British manual of
world navies, Soviet Russia has, or had
at the start of the war; three battleships
of better than % 900 tons each and noun
ting 12-inch guns; one aircraft carrier
OF 10000 tons; eight heavy cruisers,
mounting 7.1-inch guns one of which has
been reported sunk; two light cruisers
which carry torpedo tubes, one Of which
has been reported sunk; ninety to 100
destroyers, or large patrol vessels, of
which twenty-five have been reported
sunk; $50 to 200 submarines, and the
usual repair and supply vessels and other
auxiliaries.
Even with the addition Of the British
battleship Royal Sovereign, commission
ed in 1916, and the 24-year-old United
States light cruiser Milwaukee, which,
with other unnamed vessels, were allot-
ed to the Russian Navy after the surren-
der of Italy, the Red fleet except for
submarines, does not add up to an i'm
pressive total But who can doubt that
if the Soviet sets it's sight on big fleet
it will be able to build one? It's eleven
naval schools are an earnest of it's in

FOR MANY YEARS aspirin has been

and the public as a safe, sure way TO
relieve pain.
But many people who had complete
confidence in aspirin did not find il gave
as quick relief from binding, maddening
pain as they hoped for. Hence in desper-

remedies less well proved.
