to try the new
seating arrangement of the house of
representatives. The old desks have
been discarded, and there will be no
more writing of letters or pastins of
postage stamps while a thrilling ora
ton is being delivered from the ros-

interest in proceedings will hereafter
find no relief except to take a quiet
nap.
Under the new dispensation each
congressman allotment in the house
consists of one good, big seat, "as
comfortable as those in a hotel lob

reposes hard by. Seen from the front
of the house. these cuspidors are as
conspicuous as an armor-plated door

are now employed in polishing the
cuspidors may finally emulate Sir Jo-

DANIELS WILL Be
SHOWN BAY USES
Officials and Business Men
to Urge City as Site for
Drydock

When Secretary OF the Navy Josephus
Daniels arrives in San Francisco with
in the next few days he will be greeted
by a group OF representative citizens
ho will see to it that he becomes
familiar with the commercial and
scenic attributes of this port.
His stay in San Francisco Will be
brief, according TO advices received,
but before he departs for the north
the representative citizens who formed
the reception committee will have laid
before him data, plans, figures and ar
guments which, It is believed. will go
a long way toward making San Fran
cisco the site for the immense new
government naval drydock, the con-
struction of which has been contem-
plated by the naval officials for some
time.
Mayor Rolph, Supervisor Nolan and
Edgar Painter appeared before the
plan under which that body. the bank
ers, business men and the civic organ
izations of San Francisco will be in
readiness to plead the case Of San
Francisco when the distinguished vis-
itor arrives.
ORGANIZATIONS UNITED
Mr.. Painter. representing the North
Central Improvement association, the
San Francisco Chamber of Commerce,
the Bankers association and the affil
lated civic organizations of San Fran
cisco, outlined the situation before the
harbor commissioners, seconded by
Mayor Rolph
Mr.. Painter attended the recent con-
ference at Washington when the naval
dock question was acted upon by the
gument in favor of San Francisco as
the selection for the site for
the naval dock. At this confer
ence Mr.. Painter suggested that the
funds now being held as a contingent
advance fund for the completion of the
drydock at Pearl harbor on the island
Of Oahu, be devoted to the construc-
tion of the dock in this port, fnasmuch
as the immediate availability OF Pearl
harbor as drydock or harbor becomes
dependent upon the future reports of
engineers.
OFFICIALS RECEPTIVE
Mr. Painter informed the commits
sioners that all points advanced in
favor of San Francisco as a site for
the new dock were considered favor
ably at the conference and that il de-
volved upon the citizens and repre-
sentative organizations to enhance this
favorable. consideration with the pres
entation of facts and figures in support
of San Francisco's selection as the only
logical point for the dock site.
A great deal of data relative to the
possibilities OF this port already has
been presented to those who have con-
sidered the selection of San Francisco
according to Mr.. Painter.
Among other possible mediums OF
advancement outlined by those behind
the project is the plan of enlisting the
aid of the transcontinental railroads
in establishing branch lines from the
site of the dock to main road lines
