IS NO OCCASION FOR HURRY
Secretary Meyer Wise in Taking Time
TO Consider Problems In
Navy Department.

when Mr.. Meyer assumed charge OF
the navy department he was confront
ed not only with number of problems
which had engaged the attention OF his
predecessors. but also with evidences
OF dissatisfaction with certain meas.
ures which. though adopted by the last
administration. had not yet gone into

whether or not the protests against
the policies of Mr.. Newberry were rea.

to consider the points at issue. His
advisers not having been unanimous
In their suggestions. he has decided 10
postpone action until he can himself
institute more elaborate investiga-
ton.
Under the circumstances the secre-
tary could not well do otherwise. Mr..
Meyer must assume the full responsi.
bility for the administration of his de.
partment. II is only just, therefore.
that his acts should be based on his
own convictions. and these should be
reached intelligently. Several months
VIII probably elapse before he can in.
form himself fully in regard to the
opinion of American naval officers and
the practice OF foreign powers. The
delay results primarily from a govern.
mental system which provides for a
transfer of authority at frequent inter.
walls. AS Mr.. Meyer announces that

Navy to BE Taken Care of.

The reductions in the estimates for
the naval appropriations for 1911. as
ordered by President Taft. will not
AFFECT the battleship building program
or the navy. according to an announce.
ment made by Secretary Meyer. He
declared that IL was the intention OF
the administration to provide appropri.
atoms in that year for the building of
two battleships. Some reduction has
had to be made in the minor recon.
mendations in the building program
of the general board. but the main
features of the plan of building will
remain unchanged
An appropriation sufficient for
building five torpedo boat destroyers
or one modern repair ship for the
fleet, which ever is deemed the moro
urgent, will be made, according to the
secretary.
Congress having cut the 1910 esti-
mates down to about one half and. con.

ECONOMY.
Administration Of President Taft May
Be Relied Upon to Handle the
Situation In Firm and Wise
Manner

The Taft administration Is taking
hold OF troublesome situation with
Arm hand. In it's inner and detailed
workings, the government at Wash
ington has been in bad shape for a
long time past. There has been little
attention TO detailed operations on the
part OF the president or the DEPART
ment heads. almost no restrictions
upon extravaganza. Each bureau
head has been permitted to make his
own estimates. likewise TO present his
own demands, with the assurance that
the president would give him support.
On top Of all, there has been the as
sumption on the part of the govern
ment OF new spheres of responsibility.
like forest guardianship and irrigation
works. ETC., all very proper but like
wise all very expensive The result Is
that the charges of government have
grown prodigiously; indeed. they have
gone past the resources OF the gov.
eminent unless new sources OF reye-
nue. shall be developed. The Taft ad-
ministration has before IL the I'M
pleasant job OF cutting down expenses.
and 1t is going about il I'm a fashion
which promises results of Importance.
Thirty million dollars is TO be cut
from the annual cost of the military
establishment; likewise s35, 900. 900 is
to be eliminated. from the naval
budget: and so on down the line of
national expenditures. OF course we
must expect that those particular in
terests and especially the particular
persons who find themselves pinched
by this new system of economy will
cry out None the less the country
ought to see that Mr.. Taft is doing
the right thing. and no doubt It will
see It and approve 1t.

Army Cut Of $40. 900. 600.

Secretary Dickinson has said that,
In accordance with the specific in
structions OF the president. the esti.
mates for the military establishment
for the fiscal year 1911 would be $2O,.
100000 less than the appropriation for
the fiscal year 1910.
He explained that II was impossible
to make any reduction in the pay Of
the army or In the expenses for feed
ing and transporting the officers and
troops or In providing forage for
horses and mules. or, In fact, in any
OF the regular expenditures for the
maintenance of the purely military
establishment.
Consequently 1t would be necessary
to confine the reduction OF expenses
almost entirely to public works, in
Guiding river and harbor works. for
ufications and barracks and other
buildings under the quartermaster's
department.
1t was pointed out that the only
way the estimates could be reduced
to the desired figure was by the omis.
sion OF estimates for projects and
new works Of all kinds and combining
the estimates to the bare maintenance
of the establishment 1t was explained
that the effect. of such a policy would
be to delay the completion of many
improvements now under way. Sec
