that enlisted men, properly equipped men

graduation be appointed as ensigns
Secretary Daniels discussed at length
the proposed development Of strategic
naval bases on the Atlantic seacoast
The Secretary said the naval experts
figured that Hampton Roads would be the
logical rendezvous for a fleet that was about
to operate In the tropics, the Caribbean
or Atlantic and that therefore they be-
lieved that "A great dry dock should be
built at Norfolk Va.
Secretary Daniels thereupon repeated
his recommendation for the construction
of a $4,000, GOO dry dock at Norfolk, large
enough to accommodate the dreadnoughts
that are to be built. He said this dry
dock should have the same dimensions
of the locks in the Panama Canal 900
feet In length and 10 feet IN width, with
a depth Of 40 feet over the sils
The Secretary also urged the construc-
tion of n large dock on the Pacific coast.
