NAVAL CRITICS TO
GO BEFORE CONGRESS
Construction Methods Hundred
Years Behind Times, Blunt
Charge Filed Against Ameri-
can ShipbuiIderS,

Washington. Aug. 14.-That the
American man-of-war as now con-
structed is a veritable death trap for
the brave boys who man her guns Is
the obvious conclusion of the grave
criticism now being made against our
navy.
So serious are the complaints made
by experts and so frequent have be-
come the fatal accidents on board our
great battleships and cruisers that
there is every probability the matter
will be one of the first things brough
before the next congress and that I
will result into a searching inquiry
into the methods of battleship con-
struction.
Since the disaster on the Georgia,
experts have reached the conclusion
that our floating forts, every one Of
which has cost the government mil
lions of dollars are a menace to every
life on board, and that a boy, enlisting
in the navy goes forth to battle with
many chances of death in time OF
peace.
The blunt charge, that our naval
constructors are 100 years behind the
times is based on the following con
dtions
The turrets and magazines of all
our battleshi ps are constructed on tho
principle Of the elevator shaft, the
ammunition hoist running straight up
from the handling room beneath the
turret In case of fire in the upper
turret there is nothing except a max =
SHIFT shutter to prevent sparks or
burning grains of powder from falling
into the handling rooms below the
magazines.
The accident upon the Georgia oc-
CURED i'm that manner and nothing
but the self-scrificing spirit OF
American seamen has prevented sew
eral Of our ships from being destroyed.
This method of construction Is pecul-
lar TO the United States navy.
The sailing ships of Nelson's fleet.
100 years ago. had a powder hatch ir
the rear Of each gun on the upper
deck, and the powder was passed up
from magazines at the bottom of the
vessel. The hatch in the lower deck
was not directly beneath the upper
most hatch, but was to one side. and,
If burning powder fell, it was separ
ated from the hatch below by screen
of wooden cloth.
This is practically the system in
vogue in every other navy except that
of the United States. All other navies
provide for lifting powder and shell
from the handling rooms into the tur-
ret by means of a twO-stage shaft,
thus preventing any possibility of
sparks falling from the handling
room.

SWASTIKA ROUTE MEN

Considerable Speculation as TO Reason
of Visit of Railway Men Accom-

city during the week of two Of the
high officials Of the st, Louis, Rocky

minus at Ration. and which is popu-
