OPPOSES MEYER Plan.
Capps Would Have Construc-
tors Control Nauy Yard Work.
From The Tribune Bureau.


Washington. Jan. 27.--What may prove
to be a severe setback to the naval re-
organization plan of Secretary Meyer was
given before the Naval Affairs Committee
of the House to-day by Chief Constructor
Washington L. Capps. He expressed the
firm conviction that the only logical solu-
ton of the navy yard administration was
the consolidation of all the mechanical de-
partments in each yard under a construc-
tor. This is. of course in direct variance
with the Meyer plan, which proposes a.
division of authority
Chief Constructor Capps contended that
the shortcomings of the Meyer plan would
make themselves particularly apparent in
who are trained for fighting would have TO
be kept in machine shops. He indorsed
the testimony Of Admiral Rogers who pre-
dlcted disaster in time of war If the Never
system were adopted
Chief Constructor Cspps asked the com
mittee that his testimony be considered
confidential until he has had time to re-
wise 1t, but he made a strong impression
The judgment of several members OF the
committee is that no changes will be made
in the form of the appropriations relating
to navy yards at this session but that
Secretary Meyer will be allowed to con
tinue his present method of enforcing his
plan for {. year, in order that il may be
thoroughly tested

blity Of getting the desirable type of man
to succeed Mr.. Woodruff
II don't believe there will be any better
way to stop all this discomfort and restore
our party to fts high place in the public
esteem than to elect Fred Greiner, of Buff
falo, state chairman tonight declared
Senator Davis. acting temporary president
OF the Senate Mr.. Greiner's name ID on
many hps. He is regarded as clean. in
telligent and TO considerable degree a
Hughes man. So far az any of his friends
know. though he not only does not want
the state craftsmanship, but probably would
refuse TO take 1t under anything but the
most extraordinary circumstances. some
New Workers talk of Herbert Parsons. but
think he would not take the place II he
could get 1t. There seems almost a lack
Of available material
The man to succeed Woodruff should be
a good party man. but one unscarred by
any of the recent Hughes fighting, and
above all man of sufYicient size to har-
monize all these troubles. But where will

DOUGHERTY TALKS.
Viesrs of Member of Charter
Commission.

J. Hampden Dougherty. member of the
New York Charter Commission, when told
az his home last night some of the principal
features of the report Of the legislative COM
mittee. said:
THE first thing that strikes me IS that
the committee, while favoring the continu-
ance of borough presidents with present du-
ties in the Board OF Estimats and Appor-
tionnnent. recognizes the impropriety of con-
tinuing money spenders (for that Is what
the borough presidents are) in a money
appropriating body. Since borough pres1-
dents have recently been elected II was
hardly 70 be expected that the COMMITTEES
would recommend change that would in
terfere with the present incunbents OF the
borough presidents offices.
''It seems TO disapprove a central pur-
chasing bureau of supplies. but seems
70 approve of a fiscal supervisor. appointed
by the Mayor, whose duties imagine
would be very similar 10 the duties of the
head of the Bureau of Supplies The diff
ference seems 70 he rsther I'm form than
substance.
"1f the members of the committee favor
the abolition OF sinking funds that. of
course. must mean that they favor re-
funding of the city debt. which would be
farreaching thing This was i'm q
sense, advocated sby the Charter Commits
sion. The Charter Commission recognized
that IL was impossible TO abolish the sink
ing funds while the present city debt re-
mains unpaid-the last of IL viii fall due in
because the city revenues to the ex-
tent that they go into sinking funds. are
pledged 10 the payment Of this debt.
Hence. the only way to get rid of the sink
ing funds would be by refunding the entire
debt and retiring all outstanding bonds.
This has seemed 70 mo practicable
Mr.. Dougherty added that In the main
approval seems to be given the work of
the Charter Commission on education. IF
the committee favorS the abolition Of the
Board of Education as a separate organiza-
tion,. ne said. ''and the reduction of the
membership Of the board to twenty-o as
against fifteen Ghe number decided by the
Charter Commissionl. the result viii be for
good" Also. Mr.. Dougherty agrees that
the Mayor should not have absolute power
of removal Of members the Board of
Education and that removal of the mem
berS should be only upon charges
THE members of the committee seem
also to have adopted the theory of the
Charter Commission" said Mr.. Dougherty
that Tenure of office of all subordinates
of the board whether in the admfnistra-
tive. the supervising or the teaching staff.
should continue during good behavior and
they have wisely. as did we. curtailed the

DENY OLCOTT RUMOR.
Parsons Adherents Do Not Be
Heue Story from Capital.

Progressive members of the Republican
County Committee who have been support
ers of Congressman Herbert Parsons were
not inclined TO take seriously yesterday the
stories from Washington designed to give
the impression that Congressman J. Van
Nechten Olcott had been agreed upon as
Mr.. Parsonss successor According to the
information allowed to become public In
Washington the election of CONGRESSMAN
Clcott depended only upon his consent to
undertake the task of leading the party in
New York County
Men who have worked to place the party
organization in line with the new ideals of
government enunciated by Governor
Hughes declare that Congressman Olcott
was more In sympathy with the old regime
and his selection as head of the committee
would be notice to voters that the Re
publican party here had abandoned its pro-
gressiye policy.
Certain national leaders might like 10 see
Congressman Olcott at the helm here.
friends of Congressman Parsons said, but
the stories given out in Washington were
mainly due 10 the wish being ia Their 70 the
thought. Some resentment was shown at
the impression gained from some Of the
Washington dispatches that the presidency
was being settled at the capital.
Late yesterday afternoon there was a
brief meeting oc the committee. which is
to recommend 4 successor to Mr.. Parsons
in the absence of Congressman Bennett
and Deputy Controller Mathewson no def
rite conclusion was reached. There will be
another meeting to-day. 1t is understood
that the name of John Henry Hammond is
now heading the list of possibilities.
Congressman Olcott was in the city for
n few hours Yesterday and got into com
riunication with a number of friends He
arrived in the morning and returned to
Washington on late afternoon train.

vote: in other words doing away with the
system Of voting for candidates by blocks.
This proposed bill permits the placing OF
the party emblem before the name of each
candidate for public ONCE, so that voter
who cannot read will be able to indicate
his choice of a party candidate by means
OF the emblem of that party.
The report favors approval OF any amend

the Penal Code that may be urged by the
Corrupt Practices Association, which Is
dealing with the subject
On motion oe Mr.. Herrick q resolution
was adopted providing for the. appoint
nent of a committee Of FIVE. OF which the
chairman and secretary should be members.
to present these bills to the Legislature
and urge their passage. The Democrats
I'm the Legislature. he said, should welcome
the leagues activities and not consider
them as putting in" because most OF the
leagues members came from districts with
out Democratic representation In the Leg
islature and so considered themselves the
constituents of all the Democrats who were
in either house.
Everett V Abbott. of New York, intro
cuced a resolution committing the league to
the support of the short ballot, so called
committee on resolutions. Mr.. Herrick ex
plained that this project was so unknown
that to take il up now would ALLEVIATE q
large body of the Democrats who never
heard of il, though he had urged 1t twenty
years ago
Tonight the league gave reception for
Democratic mayors, about fifteen OF whom
were on exhibition, and there was much
informal speechmaking. There was great
deal of gossip during the day about Gust
ing State Chairman Conners, although the
league as body is not supposed TO be
interested in that undertaking. Most of
the members seemed to think he would be
thrown out some time soon. Some of the
Buffalo men said that Howard Hutchin-
son, a wealthy Buffalo Democrat, was
being mentioned prominently to succeed
Corners. but not many of the leaguers
seemed TO have heard of 1t.

League as organized follows:
