ADMIRAL MIDGE SAYS OUR NAVY'SIOOSMALL

Britain Holds That- Our National Polioe Force Isn't Equal to Frizes That Tempt,

LONDON, July 28.—(Correspondence of, The Associated Press)—The «iaval program'' of the United States Is a modest one In the opinion of Ad mlral Sir Cyprian Bridge, retired, one of England's greatest naval experts and counsellors. Admiral Bridge was formerly commander-in-chief of the Australian forces and director of naval intelligence. Since his retirement he has served on numerous commissions inquiring into various branches of naval activity.

I fcannot but regard," said Admiral Bridge, "that toaval appropriation and the plan' agreed upon by the United

States senate as mqre than modest, considered in connection with resources and requirement, or wnen we 4 remember that the strength of the po\Jice force should be commensurate with'the treasures that tempt. "ThA action of your government •j, se.ems timely. I have been one of those who considers the Panama canal as v. «.n even greater asset for defensive -purposes than for commercial advantage and I believe that a larger naval program for your country certainly is justified by the inability to place perfect confidence in the canal's availability on rccount of the slideb now and then. It appears that your naval experts have duly considered this point

In making provision for 167 additional ^ships, including 16 capital ships, in -a program to be completed within the nekt three' years. With your present ctrength, such an addition will indeed place your power on the sea next to that of Britain. "Notwithstanding eome divergence of opinion on the subject, I think that

Itds quite safe to say that the lessons of naril engagements in the war, "have justified generally accepted division into classes of fighting craft—battleJshlps, heavy and light cruisers, de-

Stroyers, and perhaps, summarines." Future of the Warship. "It would accordingly seem wise to consider very carefully whether the liuge dimensions of the latest capital U j,, ships are compatible with the possible L, /J employment in the near future of I*,-. highly developed submarines k "Coming to the lesson of the battle of Jutland, the most striking result to my mind was that the guns, and not |the torpedoes, were, generally speakj„ ihg, the weapons that told. It is also j^' tit

remarkable' interest to note the considerable period during which our ships were in action without being Ik very seriously damaged by the German g- fire, which .seems to confirm Admiral

i'Kj sn

Farra^ut's Argument .that, the best armor is thefeturu fire. "Considering 'the large number of ship building ya/ds at your disposal, l^'JLt-would seem plausible that youxould without inconV^niehce turn out'the 16 capital ships referred to in yojur pro,#igram ih the specified three years, and

It the 'sixteen could he finished, as & Stated, .there seems 'little ground to 5" fear but what in theste three years the other vessels called for could be corns' pleted. 'As to the guns, it would appear that they would be the least |J pressing portion of your problem, though' they will have to proceed in i-taking form even more rapidly."

MILK MOVERS LOCKOUT. Dairies, However, Will See' That Babies Get Their Lunch.

ST. LOUIS, Mo., Aug. S.—The St. j* Louis Milk Dealers' association, comPosing fourteen firms, declared a u* lockout to be in |orce against approxi I mately ninp liunCvoa drivers, who J,„ —j VQted to strike early 'codr.y.

The big dairy companies have asked

k, ,r the police department to send guards |-'v ,i to their plants, and it is believed delivery of milk by non-union drivers |Vr y will be attempted.

Anticipating the trouble, the dealers had compiled a list of customers need'J I ing milk for babies and invalids. These

T*'ill be supplied by special motor /truck

"Four hundred infants under three years died each year. Half of these deaths are due to unnecessary diseases. Feeble-mindsdness is increasing twice as fast as our rate of Increase of population.

OFFER GUY BUDGET

the council, I believe, is unanimous in their refusal to raise the tax levy this year."

The proposed tax levy, as submitted by City Controller Mancour£. places the value of taxable property in Terre Haute as $37,288,370 and fixes the levies for each fund as follows:

Last year.

General fund $ .94 $1.00 Sinking fund 10 .08 Interest fund .06 .00 Public park fund .09 .05 Firemen's pension fund .01 .01 Police pension. fund 01 .01 $1.21 $1.15

In submitting 'the proposed levy to the council, City Controller Mancourt says: "The total net value of taxable property in the city for 1016 is. $37,288,370 with 9,836 polls. A levy of 94 cents on $100 for the general fund would produce $350,510.68. To this will be added receipts from liquor licenses and sundry sources of $95,000.00 and polls $4,P18.00, making a total of estimated receipts of $450,428.68. "There is a balance in the sinking fund at present of $1,8,835.59 which with an additional $1,164.41 will be used to redeem the outstanding half of a $40,000.00 issue for funding bonds of 1-896 due Nov. 2, 1916, $20,000.00 having been paid May 2, 1916. As there is an issue of $70,000.00 sewer bonds of 1897 maturing Oct. 1, 1917, the maximum rate of 10 cents should be made for the^ sinking fund for 1917. "The annual interest and exchange cn the bonded debt of the city is $24,123.84. In 1917 it will be $22,519.84. Therefore a rate of 6 cents per $100 will be necessary for the special interest fund, which will produce $22,373.02. "Under separate head I am sending you a communication from the park board with their request for an adequate rate" for public park fund. A rate of 9 cents per $100 would produce $£3,559.53 for 1917. "The firemen's pension and police pension funds each require a levy of one cent per $100 by law.

BRITISH ARE WORRIED. Want to Know Fate of Prisoners Taken In TurKish Campaign.

LONDON, Aug. 8.—Apprehension exists as to the fate of the .British prisoners taken at the time of the surrender of Kut-El-Amara to the Turks. Lord Robert Cecil said in the house of commons today that repeated inquiries had been made through the American embassy, at Constantinople to ascertain the whereabouts of these prisoners, but that no reply had been received from the Porte. This he said, inspired considerable misgivings, as the prisoners were compelled, after the fall of Kut-El-Amara to cross the desert -it the worst season of the year.
