The companies made this offer under the impression
that as armor of this kind Is entirely within the
hull and superstructure of the ships the failure OF
the Government 10 procure 1t would stop the work
of the shipbuiders entirely. Therefore, while they
refused to furnish all the armor needed AZ the
price fixed by Congress, they undertook TO supply
the diagonal armor leaving the price TO be ADJUST
ed afterward Secretary Long, however. has found
that it will be possible TO go on with the WORK OF
building the ships and allow the armor TO be placed
later. The Construction Bureau has professed it,
ability do this with as little disturbance or the
ships structure as would result from placing
boiler In the hull. The Secretary also felt that
there was doubt TO his authority to commit
the Government In this way TO an indefinite ex-
penditure. and the act of Congress had pointed
out the course 10 be pursued in the event of the
failure Of the companies 10 accept the price
fixed he has decided 20 decline the offer.
