The San Francisco call., 1910-11-27
SOUTHERN STATION OF NO
USE IN CANAL DEFENSE
Will Recommend improvements
to Make San Francisco
Chief Pacific Base
BATTLESHIPS TO COME
AFTER THE BETTERMENTS

IMPORTANT conclusions reached by
Secretary of the Navy Meyer on the
occasion of his recent visit to San
Francisco viii be embodied in his
forthcoming report to congress, which
viii be made public in a few days.
Although the secretary's views were
regarded as confidential by those with
whom he spoke while here, The Cali
. has learned enough TO reveal the light
Ia which the navy department looks
upon Kew Orleans and San Francisco.
It is known that Secretary Meyer
has expressed himself as favoring the
abandonment of the New Orleans navy
yard The New Orleans yard he re
CARDS as inaccessible, too far inland
and subject to shoaling and oyerf1ows.
He believes it would be an unwar-
rsnted expense to keep it up. Further
than that, there is the grave danger
hat in case of war a battleship en-
deavoring TO reach il would block the
passes Of the Mississippi.
Useless as a Station
Secretary Meyer finds the New Or
leans station useless for the protection
Of the Panama canal. He believes
that it is too far away, and even an
impractical point from which to de-
fend the gulf. In short, he classes it
as an inland station and Of no worth
Tor seaeoast defense.
The proper naval base for the pro-
lection Of both the canal and the gulf
he believes to be Guantanamo. It's
position and general utility, in his
opinion. warrants the abandonment OF
Pensacola as well as New orleans.
FaNors This Bay
IN contrast TO his view on New Or
cans. the secretary is emphatic that
improvements should be undertaken at
san Francisco to make this the chief
naval base of the Pacific. He favors
The construction of the largest type
# drydocks and a battleship repair sta
lion on the bay. Engagements are
contemplated at Mare island. as the
secretary regards it as one of the most
useful yards on either coast. The three

RED MEN POW WOW IN oTTUMvsA
NEXT MONTH EXPECTED 70
be GREAT AFFAIR.

In the opinion Of Frank A. Day OF
Des Moines, grand chief Of records Of
the Improved Order Of Red Men of the
reservation of Iowa. the coming great
council meeting in Ottumwa will far
eclipse previous meetings in the point
of attendance. The instituting Of six
teen new tribes in Iowa the past year
and the voluminous increase in the
membership OF the other tribes will
provide for a big increase in the num-
Der of delegates, and the fact that the
Ottumwa Red Men Intend to provide
unusual entertainment for the visitors
will also serve to make the attendance
greater. AS an instance Of the increase
assured 1t need only be stated that Des
Moines will have a delegation Of sixty,
while heretofore the number has been
mo greater than thirty-two.
The presence of the past officers OF
the Red Men, who come at their own
expense just to mingle with their fol
lows, will also be materially increased.
What Cheer will alone send twenty-six
past officers.

hold meeting tonight and Mr.. Day

tertainment for the three convention

TON WILL EXTEND WORK.
LOT is DONATED.

| The Willard Street Methodist Epis'
copal church, under the pastorshtp OF
i Rev. E. J. Shook, will erect chapel on
Madison avenue near the Snyder gro
Gerry. The lot for the site of the new
chapel, donated by Mr.. and Mrs. A. !.
Snyder, comprises strip of land fifty
| by Ill feet. The committee appointed
by the official board of the church to
secure a lot has purchased an addi-
tional ten feet, providing ample space
for the structure. The purpose OF the
official board Is to proceed at once to
secure the necessary funds to build
and equip the chapel for use before
the coming winter. Already various
sums to the amount OF $50 and 500
have been rendered for the building Of
.,::.e chapel. The soliciting COMMITTEES
will start out Immediately to raise the
balance needed.
The decision of the official board to
build chapel came about in a unique
way. Rev. Mr.. Shook in his opening
service for the conference year took
his text from Exodus 14:15. Speak
unto the children Of Israel, that they
go forward" and recommended to the
church as its watchwOrd for the year:
Go forward" Accordingly. the official
board at once accepted the challenge
and appointed a committee to secure
a lot in part Of South Ottumwa not
accommodated with churches, In
which to hold services. including Sun
day school, and provide for the need
of that part of the city. The new
church is near the site of the new Mo-
line Pump factory.
