NAVY IN PRIMITIVE
STAGE, SAYS OFFICER
Commander Fiske Points Out Some
Radical Defects in Construction and
Administration of Ships.

'"The ships OF our battle fleet have not
been correctly designed from a military
standpoint"
''The art and science of naval tactics
are undeveloped'
THE administration of the navy has
not until lately given sufficient weight
to military: consideration
In a remarlxa BILE article published In
the Proceedings OF the United States
Naval Institute" as a prize essay. Com
mander Bradley A Fiske. U. s. N.
makes an attack on the present organ
ization OF the navy and says that its
faults arc those given.
The American navy. Commander
FIske says, is In reality only In its
primitive stage. He suggests radical
changes. One of these recommendations
is that there should be more machinery
in ships III order to eliminate the human
element as much as possible
For says Commander Fiske, ''the
delightful amenability of machinery to
discipline should not be overiooked-ma-
chinery has never been known to be
out Of uniform. to overstay its liberty.

made a strictly guarded secret; the con-

the discontinuance of arnored cruisers
