New Battle Cruisers for American Navy Proposed
Washington by October 4 reports a plan to authorize eighteen million dollar battle cruisers faster than any current warships. President Wilson, Secretary Daniels, and Rep. Padgett reached a decision to push the step next year, with dreadnoughts also planned at about eighteen million each. Daniels indicated the exact number of ships and armament remain undecided, though twelve 14 inch guns or a six 16 inch alternative are possible, and a submarine flotilla defense plan is under review.
