seriously embarrassed by not having suit
able facilities for getting out foundry
work.
1T would not be necessary to make an
appropriation for the entire amount for
a new foundry at the present time as IL
would require about two years to build
ana properly equip it. Therefore a SUBJ
stantlal appropriation TO begin this work
would suffice for the present.
IL IS urged also that an appropriation
or S3o.l1O be made for new foundry
and foundry yard, and $4,000 for new

Salaries Should Be Equalized.

The superintendent reports that there
is still discrepancy between the salaries
PAID TO employees in other departments
and those at the gun factory for work
OF equal character. 1t is hoped that this
can be remedied in the future
Admiral Mason also recommends that
Congress be urged to do something at
this session to remedy the present condi-
tons as to classification and paw OF
the clerical force of the bureau. The
bureau feels. he says. that it would
pc an act of injustice to its faithful and
efficient clerical force not to do all in it's
power to bring their pay up to that given
to similar employees in other depart
ments.
Attention is invited also to the pressing
necessity for increased office accommoda
ton. The present arrangement of storing
records is inanitary and dangerous to the
health of ALL

New Twelve-Inch Guns Praised.

Admiral Mason states that the guns for
the Arkansas and Wyoming. now being
constructed, have been tested and are at
least the equal of any gun thus far pro-
posed abroad. The guns are Pinch, 80
caliber as compared with 4o-calber guns
on ships now in service.
The Arkansas and Wyoming each will
carry twelve guns of that type. In the
test this gun developed an initial velocity
OF 1880 foot-seconds and a muzzle energy
of $500 foot-tons. In five rounds. fired
at 1900 yards range, the dispersion was
less than 100 yards.
The bureau recommends that Congress
grant authority for the Navy Department
to purchase ordnance material in what
ever manner desirable which In its char
acter or ingredients involve military Sc
crets.

Gun Factory's Work Unexcelled.

Admiral Mason says that the work at
the gun factory, Washington navy yard.
during the year has been prosecuted with
zeal, and states his belief that the prod,
uct is fully equal to that of any like
institution in the world. Old and obsolete
machinery has been replaced by new and
improved, and every means taken within
the limit Of the appropriation to maintain
a high state of efficiency at minimum
expense.
An estimate of $4,000 is submitted for
the purchase and erection Of new and
improved machinery for existing shops
Admiral Mason says that owing to the
extension Of the gun factory and con-
tinued working in shifts in all the shops
the constant wear and tear on the present
machinery have been great.
An estimate of s121,O75 is submitted
for machinery, cupolas. furnaces, etc. for
a proposed new foundry. Admiral Mason
says that the present foundry is anti
quated and entirely Inadequate and un-
suitable.

OF its present situation The loss to
the government each year by not having

equal the amount requested to properly

ment from our shops, saving both time

The O. l. A.. increasing steadily IN

pare for this day, and for the wisest and
fairest solution of the problem. For sew.
eral reasons the o. l. A. may appro-
priately and without presumption con.
slider the status and rights of the Wash
ingtonian. It's labors will be largely UNI
selfish and disinterested. In working to
increase the American rights of the
Washingtonian it's members will not be
seeking benefits so much for themselves
as for their sons and the adopted Washing
tonians who come after them. The rep
resentatives of the Oldest Inhabitants
will labor for what concerns especially
the youngest Inhabitants, and the asso.

An o. j. A. committee on the status OF

task with the knowledge of and sym
pathy with Washington which come from
more than thirtyfve years of local resi-

In the associations campaign Of 1910 to

exhilaration. Then she balanced her
self with a flushed laugh in the sad
