The memorandum outlines naval estimates for 1928 exceeding 80 million dollars above last year. Hearings before the House Naval Committee show plans for 118,040,105 dollars for ships and 98,100,000 dollars to be authorized this year though figures are rough estimates likely to rise. With 40,000 ton battleships in prospect and 32,000 ton types unapproved, an increase of about 45 million dollars appears necessary to carry out the program.
