the three battleships, Maine. Ohio and

used instead of that in the sentence
authorizing the secretary TO purchase ar
NOR for the vessels. under the limita-
tons of price for the same imposed by
this act"
II happens that the armor-making com
panies are so flied with contract work
that they will not be free to assume any
additional contracts before next Febru-
ary so that If congress comes promptly
to the rescue of the navy at the begin
ming of the next session. no actual delay
will result in the case of these particular
ships, though the vessels newly author

Turns, while he hears his mothers

His boarded cents he gladly gives tc
