Plea for Improvements at

makes a strong plea for more extensive
improvements at insular stations and for
a higher standard in the maintenance Of

the secretary Of the navy
The estimates for navy yards and sta
lions recommended to be submitted to con-
gress at its coming session are as follows:
Public works. including repairs and
preservation. S9Sll.130; maintenance yards
and docks. $3.50. 600; contingent yards and
docks. 1000; total, s1i.341. 30.
The need for additional dry decks is
urged. All of the principal yards Admiral
Holiday states. should have structures Of
sufficient capacity TO dock the largest
vessels likely TO be built within the near
future.
The estimates recommended for these
various navy yards and stations include:
Navy station. Cavite, p. l., $1,000; naval
station. Island Of Guam $4,000: navy
ward. Mare Island. California. S1.776.500
