Byrnes advocated building up the United States navy to the 1922 treaty strength. He said the present1 navy is well balanced and- in splendid condition,* adding that although he was much encouraged by conditions as he found them, he believes America ha9 not the fighting weapons necessary for naval equality. "In the last treaty we scrapped battleships and other nations scrapped blue prints. In a-ny future agreements, I will oppose scrapping battleships until other nations do the same. "We might just as well have no navy as a second best navy." The senator added that even with the construction of 3& naval vessels already authorized and on some of which Work has been started, the United States will not have the fleet granted it by the treaty. Japan, he continued, has- built her^ navy up to the treaty limit while! Great Britain has almost taken up her full naval strength. "The trip demonstrated, however, that the stablished navy which we have is in splendid condition," Senator Byrnes spid. "Certainly as far as the naval force is concerned we are superior to any other power." It was here then the senator declared that he felt the navy should be built up to full treaty strength and that A -second best navy was no better than none at all. ""Ufttil there is some further limitation of naval armaments, we ought to see our navy is the equal of any other." The senator said that he was agreeably surprised at the high type of enlisted men he found in the naval service. More than 60 per cent of the men enlisted wept of the Mississippi have high school educations or better. Senator Byrnes, who will be chair" man of the senate .naval appropriations committee at the next session of congress, together with other members of thg appropriations committee, made the inspection trip on the transport Henderson, which was on one of its regular trips to the west coast carrying recruits.
