They are the pre-dreadnaughts; Mars Caesar, Queen, -Swiftsture, Hindws- tan, Lord Nelson, and the naughts Bellerophon, Temeraire, St. Vincent, Hercules, Inflexiole Indo- mitable, Cresent and Commonwealth and Dreadnaught, (the original of her type). These ships it is were. partly scheduled for the scrap heap before the Washington confer- ence took place. The treaty of Wash- ington sealed their fate and they have accordingly been ‘“scrapped”. That is to say they are no longer on the actual list of the navy. Some of them have been broken up, others used as targets, others again minus their guns, rest in dry Devonport and Portsmouth, rotting gradually with but a couple of care- takers on board—ships which were once the pride of the British Fleet. Of the later types scheduled to go and already off the navies list are the Superb—in a few weeks to become a target for the bombs of British air squadrons—The Erin already in the hands of shipbreakers the Aginourt, New Zealand, Princess —Royal and Lion. But the process is gradual. ship which has cost four millions can- not be.broke up in .a week. To de- stroy a great battleship is an pensive matter and at least half a million dollars goes at the foot of the bill. Consequently the big vessel for destruction is first of all paid off and with a nucelus crew around to the last port where she waits further orders. There are many such vesels in what is known as “Rotten Row” of the dockyards. Some of them will be stripped of all their fittings and their guns melt- ed down, sold maybe for recondi- tioning as freighters in the case of light cruisers, others sold foreign countries as the Treaty of [| ‘Washington allows, Many .of the fittings monster wir vessels repay their or- battleship. inders can ‘be used in gar- “rison . forts which overlook the sea, &fifmu, winches,. steam launches 7 B, searchlights can ‘and are be- ing used again in the newly built vessels or sold to the merchant ser- iginal zghwing in the ulicederricks, telephone vice. The actual position resulting from the conference as regards the capital ships in service of Great Britian and America to date is as follows: . Capital ships—America, 31. Capital ships—Great Britain, 22. But.
