The Navy Department has prepared plans
for the transfer of the big floating dry dock

The dock is to be bought from Spain by the
United States government with money APP
propriated directly from the treasury 50
that it cannot be asserted that it is the
property Of the Cubans and therefore
should be allowed to pass to the first Cuban
government with the other island property.
There is no dry dock available for United

this Havana dock so that its transfer to
San Juan or some other American possess
sion is regarded as necessary. The dock Is
at present being utilized by the merchant
marine and some opposition to the removal
from that element may be expected.
