THE NAVAL DISCUSSION
AMERICAN ADMIRAL'S STATEMENT A FLEET LARGE ENOUGH TO FK4HT ENGLAND. (UNITED PRIS? ASSOCIATION.—COPYRIGHT.) NEW YOBK, 22nd February. Read-Admiral Huz, the new Commandant at the New York Navy Yard, declared at Cincinnati : "If the United States stops building battleships it will be because some other nation has not the money to build and wants the United States to quit. I know some of you will catch your breath if I say we must have a navy large enough to fight England. In England there is open discussion what kind of navy would be needed in case of trouble with the United States. We must know in tho navy against whom we are to build ships, so we can construct different ships against Japan than against England."
