The secretary. on his way from San

''The navy is prepared" said Mr..
Roosevelt. who has been detailed by
his superior, Secretary Daniels. to
take personal charge of the naval sit

and screw machines-a pile elght feet
high. containing several carloads. Con-

out. smoke and flame began to come from
the pile of steel chips, and in several
places the bottom was found TO be glow
