Bis Warshins Will
Continue Naval Reliance
Tokio, Hept. 30.--nig warships will
continue in the future to be the chief
weapons of naval warfare, despite the
accomplishments of submarines us dem
onstrated in the European war, in the
opinion of Admirnl Kato, new minister
of navy.
"The naval fighting of the future,
as in the pnst," he said, "will be a
struggle between steel and guns. There
will be no change in the structure,
shape and urmninent of warships
though of course, the strength of indi
vidual fighting vessels is likely to con
tinue Increasing. We may see a dreud
naught shortly with u displacement of
40,000 tons."
He declared that submarines and tor
pedo boats are only scouts, "and their
activities do not have ns great a bear
ing upon the course of the war as the
amateur critics believe."
The admiral desires that Japan have
by .1020 a buttle fleet of eight super
dreadnaught battleships and eight bat
tie cruisers.

that the matter will not even be con

foolish, because the owners of the
Northwestern league franchises in those
cities will have something to say."
