FaTora n emohcicss Powder Factory.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.-Capt. O'Nei!l. the
Chief Of Naval Ordnance, expressed the belief
N his annual report that tho Government
should not go !ato the armur manufacturing
business. This IS q setback for the work Il the
Armur Plant Beard. which is now inspecting
places IL Alabama and Tennessee to secure in
formation to enable the Navy Department to
carry oat the intent Of Congress for the estab-
lishment Of q Government armor factory.
Tho Ordnance Bureau said Capt. O'Neiil.
" ia of the opinion that the Government can pur-
chase armor more chea2ly than it can naDufac-
tI-e It, ard regards The making Of srmor as a
proper adjunct TO q great commercial plant.
Foreign practice confirms this view. and, even
should the department acquire n plant OF its
own, the chances are that IL would DO ut a great
time and thus suffer a great deterioration, and
thar the expense and the difficulty or operating
1t when needed would more than Offset any ad-
vantage gained b. Cuch ownership"
Capt. ONein waited a Government factory
established Ter the manufacture of smOkeless
powder. and submits an estimate for consider
ing the necessary building. He says that the
property known as bellevue Magazine, on the
Potomac, just below Washington. would he an
excellent site, and It IS conveniently reached by
water and b" Railroad. aua IS only two hours
distance from the Eevhi proving ground. The
present price OF smOkelcss powder procured by
purchase is very high. and the bureau believes
reduced price. The success of the bureau with
Its gun factory encourages It to believe that 1t
could do equally vel in the manufacture OF
other munitions OF war.
