which
extends
until

In
these
six
years
the
nations
will
have
spent
04,000,000
on
new
vessels.
The
program
calls
for
18
new
warships
this
year.
It
is
understood
that
the
navy
estimates
for
1927-28
have
now
been
drafted.
In
view
of
the
large
Volume
of
new
construction
in
hand,
and'
of
the
fact
that
18
more
vessels
are
to
be
laid
down
in
the
coming
financial
year,
the
estimates
will
probably
be
heavier
than
those
for
the
present
financial
year,
which
amount
to
158,100,000.
It
is
expected
that
the
personnel
of
the
navy,
which
now
stands
at
103,125
officers
and
men,
will
be
slightly
expanded
to
meet
the
manning
requirements
of
the
numerous
vessels
that
will
soon
be
entering
service.

The
vote
for
new
construction,
including
preliminary
work
on
these
vessels
and
progress
with
other
ships
already
building,
will
reach
10,723,000.
Including
ships
covered
by
the
1927-28
estimates,
the
following
new
vessels
have
been
provided
for
since
March,
192L
when
the
first
post-war
building
program
was
adopted
by
the
Labor
government:
12
cruisers
of
10,000
tons;
3
cruisers
of
8,000
tons;
11

12

Singapore.
i
The
total
cost
of
this
new
tonnage
will
be
at
least
41,000,000;
Further,
the
government'
program
provides
for
the
'
construction
of
the
following
additional
vessels
between
1928
and
1930
Six
crulscrs.-one

18

12

and
three
auxiliary
craft
at
a
cost
of
approximately
23,000,000.
DOES
NOT
INFRINGE
WASHINGTON
TREATY.
The
new
construction
undertaken
since
1924
does
not
infringe
the
letter
of
the
Washington
Treaty,
which
applies
only
to
capital
ships
and
aircraft
carriers
and
places

limit
on
the
building
of
cruisers
and
smaller
craft,
except
that
10,000
tons
is
the
limit
of
displacement.
Nevertheless,
the
construction
of
so
many
cruisers
and
submarines
in
Great
Britain
and
other
countries
during
the
past
few
years
explains
the
anxiety
of
the
United

to
have
the
Treaty
extended

all
classes
of
naval
tonnage,
or
otherwise
Uncle

had
read
dealing
with
the

of

and

In

While

yet
he
felt
that
Prince
Rupert
had
little
at
the
present
time
to
offer
to
these
men,
often
without
homes,
who
were
in
the
city
for
only
sh&rt

He
felt
that
It
would
be
a

thing
for
these
men
to
have
a

where
they
might
come
