Uy the Associated Press
Washington. June 3. Twelve pre-
'dreadnought battleships will bo relieved
of active duty with the fleet, placed out
of commission and probably eventually
broken up for junk or used as targets
by more modern vessels under plans now
being worked out by tho.Xavy Depart
ment. Tho ships are of the "mixed
battery" type and arc not considered
to be of any value against latest type
fighting craft.
Four of the battleships, the historic
squadron comprising the Oregon, In
diana, Iowa nnd Massachusetts, have
already been relegated to the scrap heap.
The remaining eight, apparently doomed
to the same fate, arc the Kcarsargc,
Kentucky, Illinois, Alabama, Wiscon
sin, Maine, Missouri and Ohio.
The twelve vessels, built between
1S03 and 1001, represent a total expen
diture for hulls nnd machinery alone of
more than .f00.000,000. When plnccd
out of commission they will release for
other duty approximately 10,000 en
listed men and nearly 400 officers.
The ships long ago outlived their
usefulness as combatant units in a
fighting fleet, although when they were
built they were among the most formid
able warships afloat. All of them- were
used during the war with Germany ns
training ships or coast defense units.
Slow of speed, with small coal capac
ity; inferior ordnance equipment nnd
insufficient protection against present
day projectiles, the ships, if kept in
commission, would be more of a liability
than an nsset, in the opinion of naval
experts. They are armed with old
type twelve and thlrtccn-inch guns in
tho mnin battrries and eight-inch in the
uprATi(Tnrtf r1nflns.

cinn la tiofnrp the department nt this
time. The historic old Oregon has been
offered to the state ot Uregon to oe useu
ax the state sees fit for memorial pur
poses and probably will be accepted.
The Iowa, Indiana nnd Massachusetts
probably will be broken up for the metal
thnf !o in thpm. thpsp thrpe shins con
taining an immense amount of valuable
copper and brnss. The remaining eight
will probably be used as targets for ex
periments in, the effects of modern gun
r.fA na wna tim nlH Tpxfia. It hits been
suggested that a number of the vessels
could be well utilized as coast defense
units by sinking them in shoal water
at the entrance to the more Important
hnrbors, making them veritable forts.
It Is posslblo that four of them will be
used for this purpose.
With these twelve ships stricken from
the navy register the fleet will com
prise forty dreadnoughts and prcdrcad
noughts, twenty-nine of them of the
most modern type and eleven of slightly
older class, but still formidable unlis,
all of them of the "nll-blg-guV type
of construction. Included In the dread
nought class arc the ships from the
Michigan and South Carolina .class
through to the new Colorado and Massa
chusetts classes, not yet completed.
Eight of the ships are armed with 3--Inch
guns, eleven with 14-lnch, and
tho remaining ten arc being equipped
with 10-lnch turret guns, tho most
powerful naval batteries afloat.
The older vessels to bo retained arc
the Virginia, Xebrnska, Georgia, New
Jersey, Ithodo Island, Connecticut,
Louisiana, Vermont, Kansas, Minne
sota and New Hampshire. All or them
have composite batteries of 12-inch and
8-inch guns. They range in tonnage
from the Virginia class of 10,000, to
the Xew Hampshire type of nearly 18,
000 tons.
In addition to this powerful fleet of
forty battleships there are now author
ized and under suspended construction
six cruisers planned on a scale never
before attempted by any navy. They
will be 850 feet In length, estimated dis
placement 35,000 tons nnd will mount
eight 10-inch guns. The contract speed
of these cruisers is thirty-five knots.
Secretary Daniels has recommended that
construction be resumed immediately
on these ships.

MINE0LA TO SAN FRANCISCO
Washington, June 3. An attempt to
make a transcontinental flight from Xcw
York city to San Francisco in lees than
two days with only one stop en route
will be made by the army air service
within the next few days. A Martin
bombing plane will be used.
The start will be from Mineola,
L. I. Xorth Platte, Xeb 1500 miles
from Xew York, has been selected as
thv-mldway point. Tho sehedulo allows
only sixteen hours and thirty-nine min
utes for the first lap, nnd the departure
from Xorth Platte is set for 3:30
o'clock on the following morning. The
plane should land nt San Francisco
about 5:58 p. m. Officials here believe
the trip should be made easily within
the thirty-seven hours and twenty-eight
minutes allowed in the schedule..
Captain Bpy X. Francis, n flier of
long experience both in military and
commercial planes, will be in charge of
the flight. He will be accompanied by
Lieutenant Edmund A. Clunc and two
or three mechanics. The nlano to be
used is capable of carrying one ton of
freight or from ten to twelve passen
gers. St. Johns, X. F., June 3. Itcports
received here, from London that the
British dirigible It-34 might leave Eng
land within a fortnight for America yes
terday caused the aviators encamped
near this city to speed up the work of
assembling their airplanes for transat
lantic flights in competitions for the
S50.000 prize offered by the London
Daily Mall.
Continued rain is hampering prepara
tions at the Vlckers-Vimy nnd Mar
tinsyde camps here nnd at the Handley
Page airdrome at Harbor Grace. Trial
flichts are unlikely this week.
It developed that both' the Vimy
bomber and the Martinsyde plane,
ai well as the Alliance and BoultoaTaul
machines, due to arrive here soon, may
all take oft from the field which Cap
tain Jack' Alcock, pilot of the Vimy
outfit, began this morning to prepare
for use.
FILIPINOS PRESS APPEALS
Delegation Again Urge Self-Govern
ment Plea Before 'Congressmen
Washington, June 3. Further ap
peals for Philippine independence were-
made today to a joint committee of
Congress 'by members of the delegation
sent here from Manila to set forth the
claims of the Filipinos for the right-to
manage their own affairs, Manuel
Qucson, president of the Philippine
Senate and chief spokesman for the
delegation, told the committee yester
day that'the Filipinos- in' urging action
by Congress were willing to take their
chances against the possibility of- enemy
aggression by Becking membership in the
league of nations, and if given their in
dependence would elect a governor nnd
have full legislative machinery in oper
ation in sixty days.
It was pointed out by speakers that
even if the league should not be finally
ratified, the pica for Immediate recog
nition of the sovereignty of the islands
would bo urged. They said they re
garded only lightly fears that some day
the islands migbt be seized, and that
both political factions were agreed that
the time had come when the United
States should permit the doiplnant party
to set up a government which would
have the support of the entire people.
