Mr.. Rowell of kittery: l have a
resolution requesting the senators and
representatives in Congress from
Maine to exert their influence to secure
an appropriation for a dry dock at
kittery navy yard. We all have an in
terest in the prosperity of this yard
where have been employed. a large
number of mechanics. where have been
built many of the wooden ba:tleships
with which have been fought the great
battles in the war of the Rebellion;
but these wooden ships are a thing of
the past. and have been replaced by
others. the modern battleships and
steel cruisers of today. A few years
ago Congress made an appropriation
of sum of money sufficient to equip
this yard with all necessary tools and
machinery for the repair of these bat
tieships and cruisers. This yard is now
furnished with all the necessary tools |
for this purpose: but there is still lack |
ing that which is absolutely necessary |
for utilizing the samoa dry dock of |
sufficient capacity for receiving these |
ships for repairs. This question of a |
dry dock is not a novel matter it has |
been before Congress for some time; |
and trust that ii will be the sentiment |
of this House to do anything it can in
favor of this resolution. l ask unani- |
nous consent of the House that it re-
ceive passage without reference to
committee.
On motion of Mr.. Hill of Portland |
the resolve was laid on the table.
