Senate Navy Program For 1903 Faces Skepticism In Report
Washington April 8 The naval appropriations bill and report by House naval committee chairman Foss present a 1903 program marked by cautious projections. The Navy would total 335 ships including 18 battleships and 21 protected cruisers with limited fighting value outside these ships, while Germany’s rapid build up is highlighted. The plan proposes two first class battleships two armored cruisers and two gunboats at high cost plus government yard construction experiments, with a notable push for training stations and a larger enlisted corps. Details cover pay, ordnance, armor, yards, and public works with substantial totals and several new offices and cadet increases.
