A NAVAL ACADEMY BILL
Secretary Long in Favor of Increas-
ing the Number of Cadets.
Additional Officers Needed to Meet
the Requirements of Growing
NaNy-AVaiiable Men Scarce-A Re
port submitted to the Committee
on Naval Affairs of the senate.

The Secretary of the Navy has trans
mitted to the Committee on Naval Affairs
of the Senate the views OF the Navy De-
partment on Senate bill 3f42, "to increase
the number of cadets to be appointed at
large by the President TO the United states
Naval Academy" It is said that an in
crease in the number OF officers in the
Navy is necessary. Il is said. however,
that the relief afforded in the enactment
Of the bill indicated will be insufficient to
meet the demand for additional officers.
The attention OF the committee is called
to q communication from the Department
of February >. transmitting the draft Of
a bill authorizing that upon the compile
tion of the four years course at the Naval
Academy. the place Of "a cadet should be
considered vacant ard another nomination
should be made to fill the vacancy thus
caused This measure would. in the opiu-
ion of the Department cause more
gradual increase in che number Of gradu-
ates Of the Naval Academy and thereby
better meet the needs of the service.
ON this subject Secretary Long has said:
with the progress Of naval coustruc-
tiou and the consequent addition 90 the
Navy from year to year Of vessels Of the
various classes large and small, an IN
crease in the number OF officers and men
available TO provide the requisite compile
ment for new vessels is necessarily re-
guired: and this increase should bear
some proportion TO the annually augmented
strength Of the Navy. At its last session
Congress authorized an increase in the
