If any one still doubts that the joint
resolution passed by Congress appro-
priating 100000 for the purchase of
nickel for the navy was a job OF the
regulation sort, he must be blind in
deed, and there is reason to believe
that the tests at Annapolis which led
to abe joint resolution were part Of
the job. At any rate Secretary Tracy
by ordering the making OF new nickel
steel plates and Q new test OF them,
makes it clear that he is not satisfied
with the result OF the first test, al
though he did not hesitate to ask Con.
gress to appropriate 81 100000 on the
strength of it.
