CORRECTION OF A
NEWSPAPER ARTICLE
Commercial Association, in
Presenting Truth About
Deep Water City, Takes
Occasion to Show to
World, Indisputable Ad-
vantages of Pensacola.

In refutation OF certain state
ments, appearing in an article in
last Sundays Washington Post, rel
alive to the three southern navy yards
located at Pensacola, Charleston and
New Orleans, President C. e. Dobson.
of the Pensacola Commercial Asso-
citation has forwarded a letter to the
editor of that paper relative to the
depth of water in Pensacola bay.
The article in question does the
Deep Water City great injustice, in
asmuch as the statements made there
in are totally incorrect There is in
fact not a tenable statement made in
the article as far as concerns Pen
sacola, and feeling that the other two
cities were amply able to take care of
themselves, Mr.. Dobson confined his
statements to his home city.
In his letter, which is printed in
full below, the president of the assoc
citation states forcibly and succinctly
what the depth of water in the bay is.
and refers to the visit of number of
batileships here on various occasions,
and further points out that the mini
mum depth from the navy yard to the
gulf is 80 feet sufficient to float any
of Uncle Sans dreadnaughts.
President Dobson's letter to the edi-
self-explanatory was as follows:
PRESIDENT DOBSON'S LETTER.
Editor Washington Post, Washing
ton, d. C.
Dear Sir:-My attention has been
called to an article in your issue of
May 4th, under the heading United
States Navy in which it is stated
that. owing to Insufficient depth of
water at Charleston, Pensacola and
New Orleans, these yards can hardly
larger battleships.
Pensacola harbor can take care of
any battleship in the United States
navy, or all of them at once. There
is in Pensacola bay 10 IL square
feet depth, and IL square miles of
not less than s5 feet depth The
minimum channel depth from this out
into the gulf is 80 feet.
THE u. S. battleships Florida
and Utah entered this harbor in De-
cember. 1911, drawing 20 feet and
90 feet. Z inches respectively. These
vessels came not only far as the
navy yard. but three miles further up
into the bay.
There is a depth Of 40 feet along
side one of the navy yard wharves.
and minimum depth of 80 feet in the
channel from the yard out into the
gulf.
"A merchantmen drawing 81 feet 6
inches left this harbor on October 8,
1912. without any trouble whatever.
These are official pilots measure
ments.
"Will you kindly publish this COR
rection of your mistaken statement
regarding this harbor.
Yours truly.
