Noise of Steam Exhausts Aboard
Vessels to Be Suppressed.

The nerve-racking clatter Of q progress
sive age is to be diminished In 30 far as
the Navy Department can accomplish
that end. No longer will the strenuous
life Of the coast cities and towns OF
the United States be disturbed by the
shrieks Of naval motor boats.
Secretary Meyer has issued q general
order to the naval service that all the
exhaust of such vessels be equipped with
muffiers, SO arranged that they can be
cut off when the noise is not objection
able. 1t is specifically stated. however.
that they must be used in the vicinity OF
cities and towns. So far as these boats
are concerned the inhabitants can talk
in whispers as the little vessels humbly
pass their shores.
In the unpopulated region, however. the
boats can pun and snort at will.
