OFFICIALS OF. NAVY SHOW
KEEN INTEREST IN BIDS
Department Adopts Policy of Buying
Supplies in the Markets
of the World.

the Navy Department talxi,9e- atIyan-
tage of the Underwood tariff law. has
adopted the general policy of purchasing
naval supplies in the markets Of the
world, instead Of in the American market.
The latest call for bids put out by the
navy bureau of supplies and accounts is
for 100000 yards Of dark blue cloth for
trousers, Jackets and caps for enlisted
men.
Previous specifications for bids for such
material stipulated that American wool
must be supplied. In the present in
stance she specifications call merely for
pure long-stapie fleece wool, OF not less
than three-fourtns blood" with no linlita-
ton IS to whether it shall BE domestic
or foreign grown. Officials say the old
tariff measure practically eliminated
foreign bidders.
Nay Department officials are awaiting
with interest the opening OF the bids,
January -.
After the contract has been awarded
the material will be delivered at the New
York navy yard. AS wool is on the free
list number Of foreign bidders are ex-
pected. The department hopes for a sub
ST nj reduction in price.
The awarding of a contract for beef to
Al =, hume pa.ke several weeks ago led
to q substantial decrease in the bids sub
mitted subsequently by American pack
erS.
Secretary Daniels declares that these
reforms constitute nothing less than an
emanc ipation from the workings of a
high-tariff law and are a practical dem
onstration OF the working out Of the
new freedom.

NO MONEY FOR ROADS
CONNECT WITH FERRY
War Department, However, Might
Permit Ferry Company to
Construct Them.

The Secretary of War has informed
j. H. Adriaars of this city that there
are no funds available for the construc-
ton of roads on the reclaimed land on
the south shore of the Anacostia river,
to, connect terminals of the proposed
ferry across the Anacostia from the foot
of South Capitol street with existing
highways In the suburb of Anacostia. 1t
was explained that Col. Langfitt. the en-
gineer officer in charge of the reclama-
ton project, does not deem 1t eXpedent
TO construct roads on the new-made
land at this time, for the reason that the
fill, having been made by hydraulic
process, has not yet had time to settle.
Col. Langtitt also reported that any
road now constructed might not fit in
with the scheme for the future develop
Nevertheless. says the Secretary of
War, in his letter to Mr.. Adriaans, IA
vorable consideration might be given by
the War Department to the construction
by the proposed ferry company of tenn
porary road over the flats to connect
with the streets in Anacostia, il the
company would undertake to respect the
rights of the lessees and the District
outfall sewer, and to care for all the
drainage that might be obstructed by
the proposed road.

eminent Telegraph and
Telephone Lines.
SAYS HIS Department
HAS SURPLUS ON YEAR
Postmaster General Considers NJ
merous Subjects, Including 0per-
alton of Parcel Post.

The biggest of the big features in the
POSTMASTER Generals annual report is the
argument for the government ownership
OF the telegraph and telephone lines of
the country. Mr.. Burleson. beginning with
the declaration that "a study Of the con-
stitutional purposes of the postal estab-
lishment leads to the conviction that the
Post Office Department should have con-
troll over all means of the communication
of intelligence" reviews the subject from
the act of July "a, 1866, providing for the
acquisition of the telegraph lines upon an
appraised valuation, and reaches the con-
clusion that the operation Of the parcel
post has demonstrated the capacity Of
the government to conduct the public
utilities which fall properly within the
postal provision of the Constitution also
that every argument in favor of the
government ownership of telegraph lines
may be advanced with equal logic and
force in favor of the government owner
ship of the telephone lines" He con-
cludes by stating that committee ap-
pointed last June to make an investiSa-
ton of the subject and determine the pre-
1iminary steps necessary is now engaged
in preparing it's preliminary report and
if the findings justify ii proper recon-
ment at later date
In dealing with the financial statement
of the department he says he iinds
for the first time i'll thirty
years surplus of postal revenues
over expenditures exists. and that it is
estimated at SSH 9C5.7S, not SOLO,
G5og1 the audited surplus SHOWN by
the statement of the auditor for the Post
Office Department. The difference is ex-
planned as being due to the fact that the
auditor deals only with receipts and eX-
penditures that have been actually audit
ed, when. as matter OF fact, IL at the
close of the fiscai year the outstanding In
debtedness of the department were charged
against it, credit being given for the
payment during the year of Indebtedness
due on account of previous years, the
result would be materially modified. and
give a more nearly correct estimate OF
the actual financial condition of the de-
partment.
The dominant policy of his administra-
tiorl the Postmaster General states. Will
be to conduct the postal service for the
convenience of the public, and not Tor
profit Its controlling purpose will be
to promote efficiency by the complete
standa rdization of the service, which will
be gained by harmoniZ:ng the equipment,
adjusting the personnel and securing the
greatest possible cooperation in every
quarter. The prime consideration in per-
fecting the personnel OF the postal saw
ing service shall be to recognize ef1-
cheney and to eliminate partisanship.

Savings System Refuses Deposits.

The report states that "a conservative
estimate Indicates that more money has
been refused by the postal savings sys-
tenn than has been accepted" fact
that has operated to the detriment OF the
system, confusing foreign-born citizens
who most need the service, but who can
not understand why the government will
safeguard a part and not all of their
savings. The Postmaster General says
he has recommended the passage Of a
law removing the restriction upon the
amounts that may be accepted from any
one depositor. accompanied with the rec
ommendation that interest be paid on not
exceeding $1,000 OF deposits made by
and one deposition. regardless of tn
