KEEPING PUCE Rounded Program For Naval Construction Submitted To Group WASHINGTON, Per. 10.Cruier f .r cruiser and suhmarid for ubmar tlir United Hotel mint build in inmpetltlnn with (Stent Britain on five to Hire ratio o( auperlority over Japan il the Washington treaty 5-B-3 ratio of nnval strenih la to be main tained, Keorotnry Wilbur kaa inform ed the house sub-committee on naval appropriations. The aeoretary submitted 1 ronnded building program advocated by the . general board, details of which have not been revealed, but which includea j light cruisers of the 10,000-toa type, fleet aubmarlnea, destroyer leadera and other auxiliary craft, tonnage in which ia not limited by tho treaty. Since the statement, laid before the cflmmittea Monday In executive aes eipn and made public last night, wna ' reviewed and revised repeatedly by the general board and other experts of the navy department before it waa delivered by Mr. Wilbur, It may be taken the deliberate conclusion of the naval aervlce not only on the present gtatna of the navy compared ' with other fleets, but as to the rela live value of aircraft and aubmarlnea compared with battleships. "Battleships are atlll the . real measure of aea power," the aecretary told the committee. But to have full value, he added, they "must be pre pared to resist every possible means of assault, including the aubinarine torpedo and the aerial bombs.'' Mr. Wilbur said the mggestion that either torpedo r bomb waa "the ef fective anewer" to battleship waa "absurd." FORT WORTH, Tex., Dec. la ta?)

The re sult In my opinion fcaa been deatruc- tive to the digulty and public opinion of the United State eenate. "I feel that there was ao much ev. adoration in the spasm of lnvestlga tions, that were then going on, that it reacted upon tie American people," "If America, ever exhausts its aup- ply of petroleum," he aaid, "w will go Into toe Business 01 evolving sub stitutes, or maybe go into the Rocky mountains which con l sin more petro jeum than all the fields ao far deve loped." Mr. O'Ponnell denied that the petroleum Industry has been conduct cd in a wasteful manner. Kfght new members of the institute board of di rectors were chosen and in others ' were re-elected.
