D|SCONTINUANCE OF NAVY YARD
Recommended by Secretary Meyer-If it is Abandoned it Reverts to the Bol1es Estate-Amone Six Which Secretary of Navy Says Should Go.

People in this part of the state will De interested in that section of the annual report of Secretary of the Navy Meyer which refers to United States naval stations, inasmuch as in it he recommends discontinuation of the navy yards at New London and sev- eral other places.
 The New London navy yard situa- tion is more complicated than some of the others because some of the land for the station was decided, to the govern ment by the BoHes family on condition that it be used for naval purposes, and in case it is abandoned for such use it reverts to the BoIles estate. Already a claim has been made that it has been virtually so abandoned, although some of the buildings on the reservation are used for a marine corps school now and a coaling station for the naval craft is maintained there
 The recommendations for navy wards in the report were as follows:
 Even before the secretary visited the different navy yards it was clear that this country has many more naval stations and other shore access sories than are needed to keep the fleet in efficient fighting condition"
 Secretary Meyer sets down as an axiom that navy yards are primarily for war and only incidentally for peace. They should be establishments for the docking. repair and refitting of war vessels and not ordinarily for con- struction. At this time the United States has more than twice as many first class home navy yards as has
Norwich bulletin., 1910-12-07

Great Britain with a navy at least double the size of ours, and we have one more navy yard of the second class than Great Britain. In other words, we have in all eleven first and second class navy yards in the United States while Great Britain has but six of the same kind, Germany three and France five It is recommended, therefore, that the naval stations at New Or leans, Pensacola, San Juan, Port Royal, New London, Sacketts Harbor, Culebra and Cav1te be given up and disposed of.
 The situation of two of the stations is described thus:
 'The New Orleans yard lies about 100 miles up the Mississippi river. It has large floating dock which can in emergency dock vessels of about 1,60O tons displacement; has modern shop buildings and some excellent ma chine tools, in good condition. It lies upon at high water or flood of the river to prevent the navy yard and the machine tools from being flooded. It's time of war or threatened war no large vessels should be sent there on account of the danger of the passes being blocked.
 '"The Pensacola navy yard lies on a large sheet of water but it and Pensacola bay could probably be bom- barded by an enemy's vessels in spite of the fortifcations at that place. Moreover, as a navy yard it is strate- gically unnecessary"
