Navy Will Experiment in Development of Weapons

WASHINGTON, June 30. —The new American Navy, as provided by the Washington naval 'disarmament treaties, will be thoroughly equipped with modern implements of naval warfare under the naval bill as passed by Congress. With eighteen capital ships, including the newest dreadnoughts, as the first line of defense, the Navy will be armed with the greatest air fleet in its history. An appropriation of $14,700.000 has been set aside for the purchase of new airplanes and for the development of the naval air service. While obtaining new "dreadnoughs” of the air the Navy will also experiment in the development of the latest aerial defensive and attacking weapons. A large sum has been set aside for research work to be used in an effort to perfect anew type of barrel engine which would enable heavy aircraft to increase their speed from 20 to SO per cent. New depth bombs, to be used against enemy submarines, are being developed in naval laboratories, while the use of high explosive bombs on battleships will be perfected for use against an invading fleet. Tests Are Satisfactory The recent tests off the Virginia coast demonstrated the value of defensive air fleets for use as a coast guard, and the Navy will not be slow to perfect this comparatively new weapon of defease. Ten of the fastest cruisers in the world are now in process of construc’ion. Several will be finished this coming year, and they will be added to eighteen capital ships in the first line of defense. Five second-line cruisers an deight light cruisers are now in use and will be retained under terms of the Washington treaties. The destroyers, which did such valiant work during the World War In protecting merchant shipping, the movement of supplies across the ocean and the rendering useless of the great German submarine fleets, will be re-

Ten gunboats, principally for use in nearby waters, and a number Later the tables were turned on the of auxiliary ships, complete the American fleets. Six Light Mine Layers Among the latter will be six light mine lavefs—a vessel developed to an importatnt position in naval warfare during the world struggle. German mine layers, dotting the North Sea and the English Channel with innumerable mines, wrought havoc for a time to English and allied shipping. Germans when mine layers dotted the seas and the channels to German naval bases with deadly mines to prevent the free passage of submarines. Their effective work was clearly demonstrated, and the six mine layers will be retained by the navy to develop an efficient force for use in this modern branch of naval warfare in event America is forced into another combat.
