This decision means that the (recent
"restoration of the sinking fund to its
former figure of $25,00,000 is to be

change has just given Japan a taste
of what her condition will be after the
war.
Japan's new naval construction pro
gram calls for an appropriation of
$130,320,895. It is proposed to build
three battleships of the super-dreadnought
type, two battle-cruisers and
'several light cruisers, destroyers, aux
iliary vessels and submarines in the
seven fiscal years berrinninfir 1917-18.
jfWith the conclusion of this program
the Japan naval authorities will have
realized their long-cherished ambition
of establishing eight battleships and
four battle-cruisers as the unit of
the nation's fleet.
The total appropriation of $130,-
320,895 will be apportioned as fol
lows:
1917- 18 $ 7,164,004
1918- 19 11,590,919
1919- 20 20,869,713
1920- 21 25,655,348
1921- 22 27,570,224
1922- 23 12,466,429
1923- 24 12,497,153
Announcement of this program,
coming on the heels of the bill which
will double the fighting1 capacity of
the American fleet has created great
interest here. This interest has been
considerably heightened by the con
tention of a large section of the Japa
nese press that the naval expansion of
the United States is directed at Ja
pan.
1 As for Japans determination to
strengthen her sea power, even if her
national debt must suffer, there are
arguments aplenty both for those who
'would justify her move and others
who inswt it is an aggressive action.
Consider Japan's position in the
world, say members of the latter
class. She is lord of the Orient Al
ready equipped with a mighty army
and an efficient navy, she enjoys a po
sition of unparalleled security. She is
firmly united m alliance with Great
'Britain, the strongest sea power, and
has joined in a close agreement with
her near and powerful land neighlor,
Russia.
There are many factors in defenso
of Japan's naval policy, the end of the
war will see a readjustment of power
all over the world. If the British and
German navies come out of the strug
gle approximately intact Japan will
occupy a humble place in the naval
hierarchy, made all the more humble
by America's great expansion plans.
I When the facta are kept in mind,
say the peace promoters, no one need
be alarmed at the sum voted for Ja
pan's naval armaments.
