Our Navy and its Needs

Secretary Robson has recently written an
important letter to the chairman of the House
Commit ee on Naval Affairs relative to expen-
ses Tor MATERIAL officers and men for the naval
service. After some preliminary observations,
the Secretary says:
In the first place, let me say that there can
be no fixed proportion between the amount of
expenditures for material and necessary pur-
poses and the number of officers and meu en-
ployed in the service. The officers and men
in the service cost neither more nor less than
the aggregate of their pay, wages, provisions
and medical attendance, while the estimates
and expenditures for material purposes must
vary each year, according to the actual state
in which We find the navy material and the
conduion to which it is desirable that it should
be brought, and this can be judged by no 9TH
er standard than that of the public safety and
necessity.
The navy requirements for materials,
buildings, construction, preservation and re-
pair of vessels, machinery, docks, &C., are alb
soute. and appropriations for them are asked
for because they are necessary for material
purposes, be the number of men in the service
larger or smaller, just as the army require
ments tor notifications, DC, are considered
needful and are estimated for, whether the
army be increased or diminished.
The unexpended balances OF appropriations,
varying from time to time, make, of necessity,
a corresponding difference in the estimates
and in the appropriations called for. This diff
ference is likely to lead a careless observer in
to mistake, but the difference in the situation
is easily understood. For instance there being
Oh hand for army ordnance an unexpended
balance Of eight millions, no further appro-
priatiOn for that purpose is asked for; the ma
Wy ordnance, having no unexpended balance
on hand, asks for something more than mill
ion. But it would be mistake to infer from
these facts that The navy is either more ex-
pensive or less economical than the army.
1t is constantly alleged, as a matter of COM
plant, that there are too many naval officers
in the service, especially OF the higher grades,
and that the number of officers in these grades
is larger than it was before the war. This
complaint is founded on error of both fact and
