To many naval officers assignment
TO navy-yard Industrial duty Is dis
tasteful: they feel misplaced take lit
tie or no interest in the details of man
agcmcnt and are generally Indifferent
AS TO methods and results. Naturally
these officers attach hut slight Impor-
lance TO the elements OF cooperation
and coordination. The issuance of
military commands by the commandant
In no way improves the situation. Con-
tnuity OF policy in navy-yards Is prac-
ucally nonresident. The principal rea-
son for this fact is that the command
ant. the officers In charge OF the manu-
featuring divlsions--in fact. all the of
hcers assigned TO navy-yard duty--serve
In their respective capacities for but
relatively short periods, often less
than year.
Present conditions necessarily fos-
ter shop ineiiicicncies. Officers do not
have the personal operation and
confidence of the civilian empIoye.
Naval officers bring to their navy-yard
work a military viewpoint and an atti-
tude that rcpcl rather than invite the
confidence OF the workmen. Their uni
forms are but symbolicaI of this feel
Ing and attitude. Military control OF
navy-yard industrial activities has
created and fostered a deep feel
ing of discomfort among the employees
They frequently have been made un-
pleasantly aware of the fact that rank
carries more weight than ability. Pres
cnt conditions practically penalize
initiative and efficiency
Justification OF naval management
is not found In navy-yard estimates or
costs. The battlcship built in the navy
yards have cost the government more
than sister ships built by private con-

Calling attention to the growing
needs for battlcship construction In

the demand for Il stronger national de-
Tense, George +. Showers. chief clerk
OF the inspection department at the
Boston Navy-Yard, discusses the sub
ject OF navy-yard management In the

hciency Society. Mr.. Showers advo-
Gates the appointment OF Civilian gen
cral managers for the navy-ya-ds as n
means Of increasing Industrial enicien-
cy and economy. AS well as the military
efficiency of the navy.
Analysing the present system Of
navy-yard management. which was
established under Secretary George Won
l.. Meyer and SO far has been continued
BY Secretary Joscphus Daniels, Mr.
Showers has decided that 4 hurtful lack
OF continuity of policy and co-opcra-
ton In the work of the various shop
departments exist under the present
supervision of the commandments OF he
yards. They should be relieved Of In
dustrial supervision, he said. and de-
vote their time to military supervision
alone. In part he said:

Guiding the commandant and his aids
as well as those assigned to duty In
the Industrial departments. relieved of
the details OF industrial management,
could give first attention to matters OF

and repairs contemplated. and serve as
members OF military boards, required
by the navel regulations, etc. They
would also have Il better opportunity to
acquire "a knowledge of modern shop
practice and management that would
enable them better to care for and
operate the finished product aboard

DDS of one who has made shop man

Such knowledge could not but help to
enhance the scaEoing efficiency OF the

w HETHER Richmond should embark in
w the business of furnishing electric
light and power to individual consumers, as
has been suggested and urged, is a matter Of
too much Importance to be decided lightly or
without the most rigid and complete investi-
cation of it's every aspect 1t certainly can
not be said that the advantages of municipal
ownership OF public utilities have been SO
completely verified by experience in this coun-
try that we should be willing to extend its
operation here in Richmond until we know
Just where we stand, and where we are likely
to come out.
One essential in the present case is a
scientific and accurate determination. by a
qualified electrical engineer of just what it
costs Richmond TO provide lights for munich
pal purposes. 1t Is obvious that true cost is
not determined by a consideration of mere
disbursements. but must include such fac
tors as plant investment. interest thereon.
depreciation and replacement. which usually
receive scant or inadequate attention in the
reports Of public officials.
A case in. point is that Of the Post-OGice
Department, which for two years now. &C
cording to the reports of the Postmaster
General. has been paying proposition.
What he means by that is that there was an
excess of receipts disbursements in the
actual conduct of postal affairs. No attention
whatever was paid to the hundreds of mil
lions of dollars invested in plant-in build
ngs, automobiles, horses and wagons. furni-
ture and the like, most of which are perish
able, and must be replaced in course of time.
These items cannot be so disregarded in
determining the cost Of public utilities, If the
end sought is accuracy and truth. Richmond
uses valuable water power in manufacture
ing electricity with which to light the streets.
That water power is a municipal asset, and if
utilized for municipal purposes should be
expected TO pay interest on the value il
represents.
Perhaps it does pay. although there is a
considerable public dissent from that view.
AT any rate. before Richmond goes more
tensively into the electric lighting business
this and all other elements in the equation
should be subjected to the careful scrutiny
OF some one capable of rendering an intelli-
gent and impartial professional opinion.
