NO NAVY COULD
% II ANY BETTER
Engineers and Crews Did Re-.
mdrkable Service. He Says.
and Ships Proved Equal
of Any In the World
Praises Officers.

Los Angeles. Calf, March 16.--
Henry Reuterdahl, whose criticism of
the navy in McClure's magazine
caused much commotlon in naval cir
cles, praised the long cruise of the
fleet in a statement issued today. He
said in part:
This cruise has been of everlast-
ing benefit to the service. 1t has
given our younger officers additional
experience in handling ships while
steaming continuously in fleet forma-
ton. and. above all. 1t has. proved
that in order to keep the fleet eff
cient IL must be at sea and not at
anchor or in navy yard. The cruise
has given the watch officer a chance
to handle ships while steaming at
long distances. for 1t Is no easy task
to steam 1900 miles with a ship
$50 yards ahead of your own and an
other 250 yards astern and the flag
ship always keeping its eyes open and
hoisting badly done should you be
out of station.
THE excellent manner In which the
fleet came through the Magellan
straits, not a ship out of position, the
fashion in which the fleet came into
Callao harbor. the naval review at
Valparaiso, where the ships passed
before the Chilean president, could
not have been done any better "a aay
navy.
Engines Can't BE EdIaled.
"The cruise has proved that there
are no better engineers than ours and
that our engines could not be equaled.
m hn Af ~ m
engineering. 1t has established the
'amalgamation' line officers on duty
as engineers and all hands agree that
the engine room efficiency is greater
today than under the old engineers.
The Kentucky, for almost ten years
never out of commission, is running
today like an ocean liner on schedule
time One would have expected the
old ships to break down. But the old
veterans. as well as the new ships,
made their ten, eleven and twelve
knots with clockwork regularity And
the prophecy of our friend Rojest-
vensky reflecting upon his past state
ment, that a ship would be left behind
in each port, did not come true. In
fact, only three times did the ships
leave the column and take up a po-
speed while repairing feed pumps or
similar auXiliaries.
ITO the warrant machinist, to the
! chief machinist, to all hands below,
great praise Is due, and when you see
man with a red mark around his
shoulder ashore give him the right
of way and your respects, for ne Is
one of those who made the works
go around You hear of the man
behind the gum but this time lift
you hat to the fellows in the engine
room and those who toy the shoyels
and slice bars In a temperature which
you wouldn't like. Were l Califor-
nian l would take the black gang
aside and give them royal treat. In
peace or war the man behind the pro-
tective deck is mostly forgotten in the
shadow of the gold lace of the top
| sides.
Praise for the Admirals.
Albuquerque citizen. [volume] (Albuquerque, N.M.) 1907-1909, 1908-03-16

Il saw Admiral Thomas on the
bridge at 4 o'clock in the morning.
The fleet was passing through the
straits, making for Sandy point, an
choring at noon. At s o'clock that
night the admiral returned from the
official calls and sat down to his
luncheon This alone shows the
strain upon an admiral in peace
which is nothing compared to war
conditions and only a vigorous man
can meet such emergencies"

ROOSEVELT TO DEMAND
SOME ACTION BY
CONGRESS
Effective Railroad Legislation
and Labor Laws Are Urged.
Talk of Special Session.
HOUSE MAY ACT
ON His MESSAGE

Washington. March 16.-President
Roosevelt continued today with Sec
retary Garfield of the interior depart
ment and Herbert Knox Smith, chair
man Of the bureau of corporations,
series of conforences no Is aoidins
with a view to making a demand on
Congress for legislation In compliance
with his messages. II Congress re-
fuses to act the president is deter
mined that the representatives, shall
answer to their constituents, and ne
proposes to put the situation up to the
legislative body so that the respon-
slbilty for failure cannot be mis-
placed
Whether the president will call an
extra session of Congress in the event
of failure to act at this one has not
been determined. Many of his sup
porters and advisers have urged him
to do so. The extra session threat,
however, has been worn threadbare.
1t is heard at every session of Con-
gress and seldom eventuates. But the
situation confronting the president is
so annoying that he will proceed with
unusual caution.
Wants Labor Laws.
The president insists that his rail-
road legislation shall be perfected by
amendments to the Sherman act
which will permit the consultations
of connecting railroads He wants the
Erdman act. which had been invoked
by employers to destroy labor unions
amended so as to except labor organ
izations from classification as con-
I spiracies in restraint of trade.
The president wants industrial com
/ binations to be organized and those in
/ existence to be permitted to continue
/ without danger of prosecution, pro-
/ vided they submit themselves to GER
| tain governmental regulations.
Believes He Has the Right.
These measures together with a sat-
| isfactory employers liability law are
necessary in order to round out the
work of the Roosevelt administration
| The laws which 1t is sought to have
amended have proved defective In
some of their sections which rendered
them useless for the purposes they
were intended, the president believes
and ne is of the opinion that he has
a right to demand action by the House
which has these measures pending be-
fore it.
