M'ashinoton, Per. 14 The dread
nought, ns typified by the latest battle
ship additions to the American navy, Is
the Ideal ship to wage effective warfare
as sea. Secretary of the Navy Hanlels
declares In a report on "lessons of the
F.uropean W ar.'' forwarded to Congress
to-day.
Secretary Hanielnuhmltted the report
In response to a traolutlon asking that
he advise Congress In regard to the naval
lessons taught by the Kuropean war. ,
After designating the dreadnought as
(he "Ideal ship" of war the Secretary
declares that rrVcraft nre an absolute
necessity In modern warfare and -that
submarines "must be Included In any
well balanced project of new construc
tion." Secretary Hanlels embodies the frank,
est discussion by naval exiierls of the
lessons taught by tin war In Europe
that has yet been made public. He
prefaces his report with the olieervatlon
that much of the Department's Informa
tion in regard to the details affecting
the efficiency of belligerent ships Is In the
form of confidential reports which It
would l-e contrary to public Interests to
make public.
"There are. hoWtWr, several conclu
sions Wbldll Can; OS laid down with con-
ttdence as the rrsult of general consld
i . rations 'nasi d on the well known opera
i tions to date," lie add. d
British Fleet Pralard.
"The first and most Important lesson.'
says Phe report. "Is that the British
grand fleet, composed not only of dread
noughts and stiperdreadnoughts. but also
of battle cruisers, light cruisers, destroy
ers, sumbarlnes and auxiliaries, has to
date maintained command of the sea.
thereby assuring to Ureat Britain and
lieg allies communication with all parts
of the world and reasonably safe over
sea transport for her military forvea
and supplies, at the same time denying
similar advantagra to her adversaries.
"It Is further known that, despite
the efforts of submarines and other minor
craft, the losses of this fleet have not
I been serious.
"Another notable fact was brought out
i by the statement of the First Ixird of the
Admiralty to Parliament In November.
1VJ4. that by the end of 1I6 there would
have been added to the fleet fifteen capi
tal ships, together with a cnrrespotiding
and adequate number of vessels of other
types.
"All of this Indicates conclusively that
the command of the sea. with the attend
ant security of the shores of a country
exerciaing that command, rests with the
Power possessing ships which In the ag
gregate have a preponderance In the
prime military characteristic.
"With respect to the. value of these
Characteristics In Individual ships every
action of the war which has had any
Influences locally or In the entire theatre
of operations has demonstrated the ne
cessity that the victorious ship or ships
tossess one or more of these character
istics in greater measure than the enemy.
