viso
That, for the purpose OF further

navy for the information of Congress,
as required by the provisions of the
aforesaid act
1T is thus obvious that the designs
of these vessels received the fullest
consideration, and We're in effect ap-

Shortly after my assumption OF the
duties of secretary of the navy, how
ever. it was brought to my attention
by an officer attached to the general
board that, in his opinion, the armor
belt on the Delaware and North Dako-
Ia should be raised 30 inches. This Of
ficer subsequently made a formal state
ment to that effect. His communica-
struction, and was given most care
full consideration, and the board on
construction promptly and unanimous
ly submitted its report recommending
in the most definite terms, that no
change whatever be made in the de-
signs as approved, since, in their judg-
ment, the armor belt was properly
placed.
The officer making the original
statement that the location of the ar
NOR belt was in error, was permitted
to see the report of the board on con-
struction and made rejoinder thereto.
While the department had no doubt
whatever as to the correctness of the
judgment of the board ON construction
in this instance, it was deemed advis-
able to obtain the opinion of the then
chief of the bureau of navigation, Real
Admiral BrownsOn, and the present

Secretary M0tCaIf on Naval Plans

Following IS the text Of the letter
sent by the Secretary Of the Navy to
the Senate Naval Committee.
MIR Dear Senator Hale: Referring
to my conversation with you ON Satur-
day consider it advisable that the
naval committee should be clearly adj.
vised as to the actual circumstances
under which the plans for the Della
ware and North Dakota were officially
approved by the department and the
unanimity with which the salient feat
ures of these vessels were approved by
the board of construction, the special
board on designs. the chief of the bu-
reau Of navigation, and the command
er-in-cbief of the Atlantic fleet.
AS you may recall, the plans for
these vessels were prepared in COM
petition with those submitted by naval
architects not connected with the Navy
Department. this competition having
been provided for specifically by the
act of Congress approved June 20, 1906.
rAfter the designs had been thor
oughly considered by the board on con
struCtion (more than 20 tentative de
signs having been considered by that
board preliminary to the selection OF
the one finally approvedD. these plans
and all other plans submitted to tNe
department i'm competition were refer
red to a special board under the presi-
dency of the assistant secretary of the
navy. Hon. Truman II. Newberry. The
others members of this board were
Rear Admiral Merrell. Captain Rod
gers, and Captain Wainwright. who
were at that time members of the gen
eral board, the chief constructor, THE
bureau of ordnance, so that a majority
of the members of the, board had moth
ing whatever to do with the designs
of the vessel submitted by the board
on construction.
THE features of the various designs
submitted were carefully examined by
this board, and my predecessor, Mr..
Secretary Bonaparte, in his report Tor
the fiscal year 1906, stated as follows:
In accordance with the proyiso at
tached to the last naval appropriation
bill, the plans for the battleship au-
thorized by the said bill are, simultan-
eously with this report transmitted to
Congress These plans were selected
by board of officers. under the presi-
dency of the assistant secretary, after
very careful consideration Of various
designs submitted by different naval
constructors in the United States and
one in England and by the board on
construction of the department. The
type of vessel selected has a length OF
$40 feet. In the language of the board
1T will carry as heavy armor and as
powerful armament as any known YES
sci of its class; it will have a speed
which is believed to be, the highest
practicable for a vessel of this type
and class, in the present state OF

noet Rear Admiral Evans Rear Ad-
miral Browuson. after carefully look
ing into the matter, stated specifically
that the location of the waterline belt
armor Of the Delaware and North pa
kota, as decided upon by the board OF
construction. was entirely correct and
that, I'm his judgment no change
should be made
Rear Admiral Evans. who had pro-
viously made a statement that, in his
judgment. the armor belt was too low,
entirely changed his mind after fully
considering the plans of those vessels,
informing me, i'm effect, that he had
previously been misinformed as to con-
ditions and that after actual eXamina-
ton he entirely approved OF the armor
protection of the Delaware and North
Dakota, and its location as determined
by the board on construction Admiral
Evans, so | am informed, made SUISSE
quently the same statement to Rear
Admiral Converse, the president of the
board on construction, and to Rear Ad-
miral Capps. the chief constructor. as
he did to me in reference to his con-
currence in the opinion of the board on
construction with respect to the loca-
ton Of the waterline belt on the Della
ware and North Dakota.
AS the only point criticized in the
designs of the Delaware class is that
Of waterline armor distribution, and
since this criticism has been disposed
of by the unanimous opiuiOn of the
most competent authorities upon whom
the department must rely in matters
Of this kind, | am convinced that there
is no ground whatever for further crt-
ticism or justification for any change
in the essential seagoing and military
characteristics of the vessels of the
Delaware class.
In conclusion, and as indicating the
character of work performed by the
board of construction, l invite your
attention to the performance of a new
type of vessel whose designs were
wholly prepared by that board. | re-
fer to the recent trial of the United
States steamship Chester. This vessel
was designed to meet certain require
ments of the general board, for a YES
sci of high speed and great endurance
which could be used for scouting pur-
poses. The Chester Birmingham. and
Salem We're, in a measure, an answer
to foreign vessels of that class which
had been designed to make % knots
speed. The American designers insist
ed on having a vessel sufficiently large
to maintain a good average speed in
all ordinary weather, and that she
should have a much larger coal endur-
ance than any foreign vessels of this
type
In the recent official trials the
scout cruiser Chester maintained an
average speed of 1852 knots for four
hours, and had in her bunkers during
that trial an amount of coal practical
ly equal to that carried by the fastest
foreign scout cruisers when their
bunkers were full, and the Chester ac-
tually had on board during the trial
three times the amount OF coal carried
by the largest and fastest Of her for
eign rivals at the time of their speed
trials. Very truly yours.
