THE SUPERVISED TURRETS.
Secretary Longs Action Concerning
the Much Discussed Question.

I
the Much Discussed Question.
Secretary Long definitely determined
yesterday that he would refer the ques-
| ton Of superposed turrets for the battle
ships Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Geor-
gia back to the Board on Construction. the
membership of which will be increased for
the purposes Of the occasion by half a
dozen officers of high rank. who are sup
posed to be open to conviction on the sub
ject at issue. The six additional members
of the board will probably be Rear Adj
| mirals Rodgers and Barker and Captains
Taylor. Chadwick, Converse and Brown
son. The first idea of Secretary Long was
to refer the matter to the Board on Inspec-
tion. and some officers of high rank, but
he concluded that the Board en- Construc-
ton, which had declared against the SUPER
posed turret, should be party to tn.
future consideration of the subject.
Secretary Long comedies with the con-
tention of Rear Admiral Bradford. the
minority member of the Board Of Construc-
tiOn. in this instance. that the question of
the adoption Of superpesed or ordinary tur-
rets for the battleships is technical rather
than one of construction. and it was for
that reason that he has decided to desig-
nate six other officers to act with the con-
struction board. The committee of officers
to consider the matter will be called also
to Getermine whether superposed or or
binary turrets shall be placed on the two
battleships authorized by Congress at the
session Just ended.
The Secretary is not in accord with
suggestion that the specifications for the
Pennsylvania. New Jersey. and Georgia he
published pending decision by the COM
mittee. and will net approve the specifi-
cations until the committee has made its
report. The specifications. which were
drawn up by the Board of Construction,
provides that the big guns OF each of the
battleships shall be installed in ordinary
turrets but there is a proviso that the
Navy Department may change the battery
arrangement so as to require the installa-
ton OF the superpesed turrets within six
months OF the date of signing the contract
with the successful bidder
