j Mr., Jones. Are they sure that is
enough money to carry on the work
Eexpeditiously?
Mr.. Lodge. That Is the statement
Of the department
Mr.. Jones. This dock has been I'M
der way now since 1908 or 1909, for
five or, six years. II the delay has
been caused by what the senator from
Virginia suggested a while ago with
Preferences TO Norfolk, We ought to
make an appropriation so that the
work can be carried on rapidly, be-
cause, as everybody comedies, this Is
q very important yard and q very i'm
portant and necessary dock. I note
that there is no appropriation In the
bill to carry on the work; and unless
there Is an abundance of money to
carry 1t On expeditiously. thnre ought
to be some appropriation In the bill.
By this amendment We increase the
limit of cost, but we do not approprf
ate any additional money to carry on
the work rapidly. which ought to be
done, unless we haya enough money
on hand.
Mr.. Thornton. There are nearly two
and half million dollars on hand now
and available to 60 on with the work.
Mr.. Vardaman. should like to ask
the senator from Louisiana, in charge
of the bin, how much money has been
expended on this dock up to date?
Mr.. Thornton. One million thirty.
six thousand three hundred and thirty
dollars and one cent.
