COMPLETING PLANS FOR

Washington, ID. c., Aug. 23-The
Bureau of Yards and Docks is COM
pleting the plans for the only dry
dock authorized by congress at the
late session, tnat intended for the
navy yard at Puget Sound. The bor-
ings for the structure are now being
made at. the Bremerton establish
ment, the location of the dock being
near the present dock. The plans,
which have not been approved, as to
present dimensions. will be among
the largest in the world The length
of the dock will be $50 feet, and the
depth 81 feet. Much interest attaches
to the dock on account of the demands
likely to be made upon the structure
and the yard shops by returning ves-
sells of the Pacific and Asiatic sta
tions. The friends of the Mare Island
navy yard are fearful that 1t means
the withdrawal from that yard OF
much of the work which has always
gone to Vallejo. The completion OF
the big dock at BTemerton will place
the navy yard there on a secure foot
ing, and will add greatly to the value
of the plant for naval repair work.
Incidentally 1t will mean a great boom
for Puget Sound.
