AMERICAN FLEE!
By H. R. ligraham
Washington, Dec. 22. (P)
A congressional sub-committee
Is exploring the advisability of
giving the navy 65,000-ton bat
tleships, vastly bigger and more
powerful than any now afloat
or known to be in prospect
abroad.
The house naval appropria
tions subcommittee has asked
the navy department to prepare
estimates on the cost of such
ships almost double the size of
the fleet's biggest.
Coincidentally, Rep. Maas (R
Minn.) senior minority member
of the house naval committee,
recommended battleships up to
80,000 tons in size. He asserted
they would be cheaper in the
long run and would make this
country "absolutely invulner
able." No Decision Yet
Chairman Scrugham (D-Nev.)
conceding his. appropriations
subcommittee had requested the
cost data on bigger ships, empha
sized today that the question of
their construction was decided
in the exploratory stage and that
no decisions had been reached,
At present, 35,000-ton battle
ships 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 testi
mony Japan already was at
work on at least one of approxi
mately that size. Officials said
however, the 45,000-tonners still
are in the planning stage.
Heretofore, the width of the
Panama Canal has been the
controlling factor in the size of
this country's warships, but Rep.
Plumley (R-Vt.), a member of
Scrugham's subcommittee, de
clared the proposed new set of
locks for the canal, to cost $277
000.000, would accommodate
much larger ships.
Maas declared that if this
country built super-battleships,
no other nation could afford
to follow suit.
