The Return affords a basis for understanding of the strengths of the fleets which the five leading powers are now discussing in the naval conference. The Return shows Great Britain has 20 capital ships, including four battle-cruisers, while the United States has 18. Japan, with a ratio of three to five, has 10 capital ships, or slightly under her ratio. The Re- turn shows no capital ships are un der construction anywhere in the world exc-pt a vesse' for Russia and a 10,000 "battleship" for ' Germany. "The following lengths of lite are as- tle-cruisers, aircraft-carriers, and cruisers, 20 years; destroyers, 16 years; stbmarines, 12 years; other vessels, 20 years. | « HET i The total for each power must be considered ing to : ters as the sike of ships, a tal; for esample, are 24 ships of the fC" class, small lightly armed ves« sels of pre-War or early' War' de- ) F'signs, bailt: chiefly dor - North Sea 'sumed tor vessels :---Battleships, bat-|38¢7 ats paper Not to" mention the bride's wns, age, and 'other factors of: war- Tat ~Passing Show. worthiness. In the British cruiser to+| : work, and sometinies described. as "glorified destroyers." These have no contemporaries of similar design in other navies, On the other hanu, Ja~ pan has 23 cruisers of post-War de- signs, completed in the years 1920- 49, and ali of 33 knots designed speed, a rate of which only two® British cruisers, the Enterprise and Emecr- ald, are shown in the Return to be capable. The list of battleships of the Pow- ers is similar to that of last year, construction in that class having been suspended as a result of the Wash- ington 'Ireaty, except in the case of Germany, which is allowed to replace old battiesnips by pew, so long as they conform to sthcial limits, The ship now being buwit is the Ersatz- Preussen, of 10,000 tons, with Diesel engines of 54,00 horsepower and a designed speed of 20 knots. Her arm- amet will consist of six 11 mech guns, cight 5.9 inch guns, four three mich anti-aiicrait guas, and four torpedo tubes. ' No new cruisers have been begun ior the British Navy since the last Return was issued, but the United tates has begun 10, all of 10,000 tons; Frapce, one of 10000 tons, to be named the Dupleix; and Italy six, of which four are 10,000 tons, carry- ing eight 8 inch-guns, and two of 5,- WW tons, carrying eight 6 inch guns. No cruisers have been Jaid down for Japan. The United States cruiser to- tal in completed ships shows a big reduction owing to the passing of the list of certain classes of the old arm- oured and protected cruisers, com pleted between 1894 and 1906. For some years, the total was 36 ships; the removal of these obsolete ves- sels has brought it down to 14, of which 10 are post-War vessels of the Omaha class, of 7,050 tons, armed with 12 6 inch guns, The weakness of tH8 Royal Navy in torpedo craft has becn acceatuated during the past year, The total o. destroyers has declnied from 140 to 134, while that of the United States remains at 309, of which 61 are shown in the body of the Return as "listed for disposal;" that of Japan has increased from 101 to 106; and t of France from 54 to 58; the other Powers remaining about the same. There is a net gain of one in the British total of submarines, but it ig still less than half that of the Unifed States and 11 below that of Japan. A particularly large sul KINGSTON LOSES TWO. HISTORIC * BUILDINGS Macaulay Residence, 145 Years Old, and 138-Year- Old Tavern Demolished to Make Way for Modern Gasoline Stations (Written for The Canadian Press by G. H. Williamson) Kingston, Ont., Feb, 8--During 1929 Kingston, the first capital of Upper Canada in 1792 and capital of the United provinces of Upper and Lower Canada, 184]-1844, lost two of its oldest buildings, which were razed to make way for gasoline stations, They were situ- ated within a block of each other on the city's portion of the Tor- onto-Montreal highway close to where old Fort Frontenac was built in 1673. The o.dest of the landmarks was an old frame building at the cor- ner of Ontario and Princess streets, originally constructed on Carleton Island in the Upper St. Lawrence River. On this {sland Gen. Sir Richard Haldimand, then governor of Canada, had established a ship- yard and naval and military sta- tion early in the American Revolu- tionary War period, Robert Ma- cauly settled there and supplied the British commissariat and gar- rison with provisions. After the war, Carleton Island was ceded By the British to the Amartean Republic, and Mr. Ma- cauly transferred his business to Kingston where he became one of the original landowners. He had erected on Carleton Island in 1780 or thereabouts, a dwelling house, which structure he rafted over to Kingston--a distance of 25 miles ~and rebuilt at the corner of Princess and Ontario streets where he carried on business and resided for years. This is the relic of those war days which has now disappear- ed after standing for 145 years The other old Kingston build- ing which has disappeared in the two-storey etone building on the southwest corner of Queen and On- tario streets. On its front wall was a stone giving the date of the building's erection in 1792, the same year in which Sir John Sim- coe held the first Upper Canada Executive Council meeting in King- ston, This stone is being preserved, This old structure was a famous resort of the sailors and marines of the British naval yard at Poin! Frederick who spent their money freely, mostly for liquors. The old British dockyard, estab. lished at the time of the war of 1812-1814 between United States and Canada, is now the site of the Royal College of Canada. The old stone tavern saw Kingston estab lished as village, town, and city, and then had to give place to a station to supply gasoline to pro- pel motor cars that rush along the highway over which lumbering stage coaches passed more that a century ago. Few of us know from experience what it's lkie to go over Niagara in a barrel, but those who have gone over a detour in a rumble seat have a rough idea--Judge.

"Children are a comfort, they ?"--The Pathfinder. aren't If you see the world beating a well-worn track to anybody's door way back in the woods these days, it's a cinch it isn't mouse traps the fellow is making better than any- body else.-- Leesburg Commercial.
