Auditors--R, H. James, W, H. Ton- kin. Committees : The first named in each committee is Chairman, Hcavy Horses -- Oscar Downey, have been launched. The Augusta, Louisville and the Chicago are no. vet completed. When they are done the eight will become division 5 ot the scouting fleet operating from the Atlantic coast. June, 1930, is the tentative date of commission, with the Northampton as the divi- sion's flagship. Built under terms of the Wash- ington = limitation of armaments conference, the new craft are Uncle Sam's only modern scout cruisers, Like similar ships of other naval powers, they are limited to 10,00v tons displacement and 8-inch guns. It is no secret ithey will make 32.7 knots an hour 'and carry an airplane, nine 8-inch guns, four §- inch anti-aircraft guns and 6 torpe- do tubes. But questions about the 'radius of action"--the distdnte they will cruise without refueling--get no official answer. : "Here," says Uncle Sam, "is a private publication with an unoffi- cial list of all the war craft in the world. It says they will cruise 13,000 miles at 15 knots an hour without refueling." With only two stacks for the oil burners and stripped of all except essential rigging,:they radiate an atmosphere of crushing efficiency. They are far superior to the ten 7,500-ton cruisers of the Omaha type now afloat. These have a cruising radius of 10,000 miles, have only 6-inch guns and 3-inch anti-aircraft guns. Only six of the 22 old-type cruis- ers built between 1890 and 1908, are in use and they are not com- batant ships now. By June, 1830, Uncle Sam will have 18 cruisers. Two more laid down under the 1929 naval programme are being constructed in private yards at Camden, N.J., and Quincy, Mass, By order of President Hoover the gonstruction of three more has been stopped. . The programme called for 15, five to be built each year for three years. Baths Made Illegal in Brassels, Belgium. Head-line. Brussels makes a bid for the small-boy trade.
