I Tae change In design was made on Si the theory that the ram la not a real necessity, since the fighting In the lj future Is likely to be at great dlatances. AleO, it has been found by experiment with models that the protuberance forward, such as distinguishes the bow of the Mew York, gives the ship lest reeletance In the water. ! Another notable feature which dietinguisbes the New York from the 1 present dreadnoughts is the sise of I the turret guns. Ten 14-Inch guns | are to.be mounted lnetaed of the ' former 12-incb guns, giving a oonetderable advantage In fighting ? quality over the older battleships.
