Large sums are being spent by the German government and by Ger- NMan tax-payers to equip the nation with an icfent fighting fleet. The G n naval budget, amount- ing to ,000 marks this year, i larger 1 that of ltaly and falls short of French naval expenditures by only about 20,000,000 marks. This suoprising fact is explained by German naval experts by numerous al disadvantages to which the German navy is subjected, and to which other important navies are immune, The cruiser “Koeln,” launched a few days ago at Wilhelmshaven, is addition to this count forces. During the three and a half years, Germany has quietly and without causing a large splash put four new cruisers and 12 destroyers into commission. 8ix armoured battleships have been modernized at a substantial cost. Four New Cruisers They have been equipped with new machinery and they have ac- quired anti-aircraft guns. The old 11,800-ton battleship “Zaehringen” has been transformed into a wire- less controlled target ship at a cost of 2,500,000 marks. Finally, the Reichstag has appropriated the first quota of 80,000,000 marks for thé comstruction of a new 10,000 ton armoured cruiser, whicheis to be the first of a serles of four sim- ilar vessels, Nineteen fighting craft, construc- ted or approved by Germany since 1924, are costing the country 370, 000,000 marks, a sum which will be increased to 500,000,000 marks as soon as the vessels now included in the German naval program have been built. “Minor” German naval expendi- | tures embrace 10,000,000 marks lor; the dredging of a new channel at| Wilhelmshaven, the North Sea naval base, and correspondingly large sume for experiments Wwith ofl-driven engines, guns, torpedos. explosives, signalling apparatus and mines . An English naval observer re. cently pointed out the astoundingly high cost of each German fighting ship as compared With a Briish warship. He estimated the cost of the projected 10,000-ton German cruiser at two-thirds the cost of H. M. 8. Hood, a vessel of 41,200 tons. Germany's new 6,000-ton crulsers are costing 36,000,000 marks each, | of which 12,600,000 marks are alone devoted to armament.

In view of the recognized im- portance of submarines and air- craft in any future war, it must be No After Lunch Drowsiness !he applied the admitted, however, that Germany's fighting ability is impaired by the complete lack of both these weapons, which are forbidden to Germany by the peace treaty. Germany has net yet bulit as muny fighting ships as the treaty allows, and the navy still includes antiquated vessels, 25 to 30 years old, although the treaty permits Germany to replace them at the age of 20. The government will con- tinue naval building and is deter- mined to maintain the efficiency of each fighting unit at the highest possible point.
