brothers. Henry's father had just
moved, and was busy laying the kitch-

work he gave Henry the task of fur
nishing him with tacks. The little
fellow worked faithfully for half an
hour. Suddenly, however, he turned
to his father and said:

NAVAL SUPPLY BILL PASSES.
Carries About $40, 7OO,000-Pro.
vides But One Battleship.

The naval appropriation bill was finally
agreed to In the early morning hours of
today by both houses of Congress. Pro-
vision is made for only one battleship.
The measure carries about $40, 700. 900,
the largest sum ever appropriated for the
support of the navy in any one year
during peace.
1t was not until after the House had
taken another record vote showing that
1t would not accept the Senate amend
ment for two battleships that the Senate
conferees gave up the fight for two bat
tleships and agreed to a report for only
one. When the report was finally laid
before the House ii was adopted without
debate.
The fight over the naval bill was SO
bitter that for some time last night it
looked as though the measure would
surely die. The last record vote taken
on the bill in the House was 1913 to IA
in favor of one battleship as opposed to
two. Representative Hobson of Ala
bama, the champion of a bigger naval
program. appealed to the House not to
make the battleship party question.
He said that the members should forget
their politics when it came to caring
for the national defense.
Majority Leader Underwood replied to
Mr.. Hobson in a speech that brought
forth applause, stating that he, and SO
far as he knew, no other member Of the
House. had attempted to make the bat
tleship question party issue. Mr. Tn
derwood declared it was time that a
halt be called in pilinS up appropria
the appropriations had been steadily
increa sed, until now the Senate was de-
manding that $50, 100000 be carried in
the bill.
