IMPORTANCE OF GUAM.
Naval Department VIII Make 1t Base
of Operation and Coaling station.

NEW YORK. March "a special to
the Tribune from Washington says;
The naval authorities have decided
that Guam strategetically is Of scarce
ly less value than Hawaii and have
begun the preparation of plans to make
1t one Of the most important naval
bases on the Pacific.
The projected improvements will in
volve an expenditure of several mill
hons for a breakwater at Port San
Luis d'Apra, coaling wharf and re-
pair shops and shore batteries for pro-
lection against assault.
The departmen has just received
complete surveys Of the harbor and
port Of the island with exhaustive
soundings at the port, and is making
an accurate chart to be used in laying
down the public works. The project
will be perfected by board to sit in
Washington and an advisory board
may be convened at Guam to furnish
aQQlllOndl l0LOTuldllOu. Auiilil ais ~
mey and Kempff will also visit Guam
and make reports before construction
work begins.
1t is proposed to erect on the side Of
the harbor of Port San Luis d'Apra a
coal shed and wharf Of 10000 tons ca
pacity. with automatic loading ma
ch,nery. The immediate necessity for
this is shown by the fact that all naval
vessels bound across the Pacific are
compelled to call for coal at Guam,
none Of them being able to make Ma
nila or Hong Kong, after leaving Homo
lulu with full bunkars, except through
the exercise of extreme economy and
the maintenance of their lowest speed.
The army transport service has
found that a whole day can be saved
on the voyage to Manila. by running
faster and recoaling at Guam and these
ships will stop there regularly as soon
as rapid coaling facilities are provided
by the navy.
