Writes Urgent Letter Asking In
crease in Appropriation for
Pearl Harb0T
DOES NOT SAY WHY PROMPT
ACTION IS NECESSARY
Desires to Spend $4,000 to Immsdn
ately Make Ready FortlflcatIons of
Islands Recommended BY
Coast Defense Board.

Washington. January so.-''There II
every reason why the Notifications Mt
Hawaii should be made ready"
Secretary Taft thus expressed himself
today in an urgent letter to Senator Al
lison, chairman OF the committee on ap-
propriatIons. renewing his request for an
additional appropriation of $3.50 900 for the
purpose OF fortifying Pearl harbor, Ha-
wall. Late yesterday the Senate passed
an appropriation bill for fortffications,
which contained an allowance of but $100-
900. which is s250,0OO less than the secre-
task asked. There is now 10000 availabls
under last years appropriations. and it
is the secretary's desire to expend at
least 100000 for fortiflcations in Hawaii
But the secretary refrains from stating
in his letter any reason why he deems it
necessary to Immediately fortify the
Hawaiian islands.
The text OF Secretary Taft's letter to
Senator Allison Is as follows:
Il write TO urge ON you that the appro-
priation for Pearl harbor be made $3.50 900
instead Of 100000. We can certainly ex-
pend this in the next year. and there Is
every reason why the fortihcatlons of
Hawaii should be made ready Will you
not bring this matter TO the attention OF
your committee and tho Senator Tbe en-
closed statement from the coast defense
board. recently appointed shows the fact
/ send 1t to you at the suggestion of SEN
ator Perkins"
The report of the national coast defense
board referred to by the secretary was
made to the President and by him trans
mitted to Congress year ago In sending
1t to the President. he himself strongly
indorsed the boards recommendations,
which included a sweeping revision of the
plans OF the old Endicott board designed
To completely modernize the coast defense
plans.
The board makes a strong argument for
the construction OF 14-inch guns. a type
not unknown In the service. instead of the
present 12-ineh gun. for the fertilization
of these points, in view OF the wide chan
nels to be protected. However the de-
fense scheme for Pearl harbor and Homo
lulu. as finally submitted, is on the basis
of the existing types OF ordnance.
The defense boards says:
Pearl harbor is OF such strategic, and
Honolulu of such commercial Importance.
that the national coast defense board
recommends for such first class de-
fense, stating shat these places cannot be
held unless fortified before the outbreak
of war. Today not a gun Is mounted to
defend either. They are related in such
way that the fall OF one involves the
! loss of the other Defenses should be
| Immediately installed at both places"

Battle Royal Likely Over Meas
ure Carrying S84,000,000
BANKHEAD WILL BE HEARD
Alabama Congressman Will Control
Half the Time Under General De-
bate-Wetsern Representa-,
tives Against Features.

Washington, January 30.-The consid-
Grafton of the rivers and harbors bill
was begun in the House today In view
of the Importance of the measure. car
rying nearly $S4,00 900, there was very
large proportion of the members present.
and there were indications of a battle
royal over numerous projects which
failed to secure favorable consideration
in committee.
Representative Burton of Ohio, chair
man of the committee, after the House
had gone into committee of the whole,
with Mr.. Currier of New Hampshire in
the chair, stated that by agreement with
the minority members of the commit
tee, he was directed to control the time
under general debate.
Mr. Dalzell of Pennsylvania instantly
remarked that this was unread of prece-
dent. He added that while he believed
Mr. Burton would be eminently fair, he
believed it most unwise for the House
to depart from custom, and suggested
that the leading minority member, Mr..
Bankhead of Alabama, should control
half of the time.
Mr. Williams of Mississippi agreed that
the suggestion was fair. Mr.. Bartholdt
of Missouri who with other Missouri and
Illinois representatives, desires to be
heard in favor of projects not in the
bill and against projects in the meas
ureh wanted to know if the six hours of
time which Mr.. Burton had agreed he
should have would obtain under the new
arrangement Mr.. Burton replied he
would be willing TO concede three hours,
but Mr.. Bankhead said he had not
thought of the matter. Rather than run
the risk of being crowded out, Mr.. Bart
holdt objected to the agreement that Mr.
Burton should control the time and the
whole control now rests with the chair
man of the committee of the whole, Mr..
Currier.
