APS SPEND MILLIONS .. By Henry W. Kinney (United Press Correspondent) ‘Tokyo. (By, Mail.)—Orders have iready been placed for sixteen war esuels under the new appropriations ade for.the carrying' out of the great eight battleship and eight bat- tle cruiser program, which the nai tion expeits to have completed by 1927, a jarge number of other ves elg are also to be provided, accord- k! to the plans of the navy auth- ‘orities. Some curiosity is already being (egt,n to whether the financial dget “a® outlined by the navy ‘will ‘W6 sufficient to, carry it out, or ‘whether a_fresh burden of taxation must be placed on the already heav- ily tax.ridden nation. . These doubts! are expressed by the Jiji, one of the lndlng_glllleu. ‘which says: “It clear that it will be diffi- ult -to- build so many war ships at cost.‘of 750,000,000 yen. matter'df fact, it is reported that the naval authorities will ask for an ad- dition of 100,000,000 yen to the or- iginal ‘allotment of 120,000,000 yen for the next financial year. The rate of this increase .is 85 per cent, and - if the cost of the entire program is calculated on this basis, the total figure will -be 1,390,000,000 yen {n stead of the original estimate of 760,- 000,000 yen. It is likely, however, that a redwetion in prices may occur, and this will reduce the rate of in- etween 60 and 70 per cent. Un! the 'naval estimates are am- ended considerably, additions must ¢ ' be asked for every year, and this ' may give rise to' serlous political questions. This causes us to wonder ‘whether the naval program will real- ly be completed by 1927. At the same time Japan is busy building a large fleet of submarines which-are probably to be used as a «line of*defense across the Pacific ap- proaches to Japan, it appearing that Japan’s newly acquired control of a thain of various groups of islands north of the Bquator, will give her the chance to establish a chain of stations for these vessels, The s reports that while the Empirepat present possesses about a #core #f submarines, she expects to have 20 when the big new program leted, of which 80 are to bhe|b, y 1923. At present about 18 ré spid to be under construction. Tt also reported that while the cost ‘these vessels was, formerly about 00 yen per ton/ they now cost 00 yen per ton, and that the Mit- subishi Shipyard, which is building a number of them, is out about 500, 000 yen on its contract. RS OF CHAMPION BOATS DONATE MODELS Announcement is made by ofticials of'the .Aississippl Valley Power Boat grocuuon. which_incorporates most of the important middle western pow- boat organizations, thal the design- ers of the world champion racing ‘boats—the. two men recognized as the builders of the fastest things that float—will be matched against each other in theracing on the west- ern circnit next season, Chris : Smith or Algonac. Mich., who ‘designed and buiit ‘‘Miss Amer- ca,” winner of the Harmsworth In- ternational Trophy, as well as other ¢hampions for the past nine years, has written the officials of the as- sociation that he will donate to the rganization the working plans and odel of “Miss Margaret, III'” a six- teen foot class racer, which showed prenominal speed in the races at Pe- oria on Labor .

N —————————————— AR AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AN Hacker with a view to having him donate the working plans of the Miss Quincy also, so that western boatmen may- build and race eitlier model in the 1921 events. That there will be some battles for “blood” is assured, ifor both of these designs are excep- tionally fast and it will remain with the builders and drivers to so power and operate them as to get the greatest possible speed out. of the hulls. These competitive designs be- tween the “home folks,” \ however will not be the only interesting feat- ure of the 1921 class racing in the west. Garfield A. Wood, the Detroit millionaire who raced ‘‘Miss Amer- ica” and is recognized “as the . pre- sent world title holder,. announces that he, too, expects to ‘build some class race boats and will be at the western meets next season with some “little fellows” that will make the boat racing fraternity in the Missis- sippi Valley step some. Boatmen who attend the Natlonal Motor Boat show at Grand Central Palace, New York, December 10th to 18th, will have opportunity to make a close examination of the designs of both Smith and Hacker, for many of the famous boats which will be on exhibition will be from plans drawn by these two famous archi- tects. INTEREST IN STATE SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION GROWING Reports from James C.’Garrison, state superintendent of :the Minne- sota Sunday school association, in- dicates a strong delegation for the Sixty-second annual convention of the association at Duluth, November Several counties have already re- ported the largest delegation they have ever had at a state convention. Effort is being made to have all dele- gales going via the twin citles go in a body. Announcement -of this will be made later. One school 8 reported making plans to have every officer and teach- er present as delegates. Plans are going on at Duluth for the entertain- ment of the convention in right hoy- al style, as Duluth is in the habit of doing . Recreation plans, contingent on a continuation of the weather condi- tions are maturing. In short, all signe point to a conventidn of great interest and power. The Best Thing He Did. ) A melancholy looking man. entered the establishment of a photographer, “TI should like to have a picture of myself weeping beside my ' wife’s grave,” he explained. “I fear I have not the necessary accessories here,” sald the pho- tographer.. Then he added, facetl- ously, “Couldn't. we arrange to have the portrait made at the grave it- self?” “No,” sald the man; “that's in New York state. It would be. too expen- sive to go there. Just you fix up some kind o&p grave here. in the shop. I could weep on that. / It's ne trouble for me to weep anywhere."— Bverybody's Magazine.
