Japan Building Super Fleet

Washington, April 12.

It is reliably learned that the Navy Department has been in- formed that Japan is building a fleet of super-cruisers of 16,000 and 18,000 tons, whose unmatchable speed, mobility and strik- ing power may revolutionlse naval tactics.

It is reported that three such vessels, are at present being built capable of a speed of 40 knots, and armed with eight or nine 12-inch guns.

A high naval official stated today: "If such ships are being built, they represent. perhaps, the most powerful sea weapon in existence. While they could not successfully engage a battleship in close fighting, they would be more powerful than any British or United States cruiser and would be the scourge. of the world's shipping lanes," (Reuter),
