More Naval Students.

Among the informal statements re-
Gently issued from the Navy Depart
ment is one to the effect that Secret
tary Daniels will urge such an in
crease in the class enrollments at the
Naval Academy as will ultimately
bring the student body up to 200
Under the existing system of ap-
pointments the full classes number
about $50 No additional equipment
in the way of buildings and other fix
lures, it is said. will be required for
the increased enrolment, but the
Academy's accommodations would be
used to the limit by such an increase.
1t has been made quite apparent
through the critical overhauling that
has been given the United States Navy
during the past twelve months that
putting the navy on basis of efficient
preparedness will involve not only
more battleships, more submarines and
a large increase of enlisted men. but
there is nothing like a suficiency of
highly trained men to officer the ships.
If the navy should be brought to the
forty battleship standard, as it now
cheney in officers will become a Sc
rious handicap, unless there is a mark
ed increase in the annual graduating
elias from the Naval Academy. When,
at the beginning of the current summer,
the Atlantic fleet assembled for review
at New York, the shortage of officers
was a matter of common discussion
among the officers of the fleet. The
prevalent opinion among the ship
commanders as indicated in several ac-
credited interviews was to the effect
that the navy could at that time use
1000 additional technically trained men
to advantage: and this without regard
to the prospective additions to the ma
val outfit in way of ships.-Baltimor

Testimony From a Suffrage State.

"The influence of the women of
Arizona hasr ushed forward the park
ing of the whole State of Arizona with
fine roads" says George u. Young,
Mayor of Phoenix, in telling what the
women of his State have accomplished
since suffrage was granted them in
1912 "They have had drinking foun-
tains installed. rest roms and public
comfort stations where a woman from
the country can bring her children,
feed them and have them cared for
without expense, while she is doing her
shopping in the city
Public bandstands have been estab-
lished nj the parks, where the people
gather to visit together and enjoy the
music without cost The women have
been on the side of the best in public
life: they arec loses tudents of affairs
and intelligent voters. The influence
of the women is assisting nightly in
reducing municipal expenses in the
towns throughout the State"

A YALE MAN BEGINS LIFE As
GUARD IN THE SUBWAY,
Rejects Bali Clubs Ofier to Mount The
Ladder in Service of InterbOrough.

Some college graduates are willing
to start at the bottom of the ladder. but
mighty few are wiling to start under
ground and work their way to the top.
John S. Reilly, Yale Is, Skull and
Bones man,who was star third baseman
on his college team, became a subway
guard in New York city yesterday i'm
order to get in at the bottom of things
in the Interborough He hopes that
his college education and his ambi-
tion to rise will soon secure advance
ment for him
TO become a subway guard at 20
cents an hour young Reilly refused Of
fers from some of the National, Ameri-
can and Federal League clubs. The
Giants, Yanks, and Athletics were
among the clubs that made bids for his
services on the diamond.
Reilly, who is 6 feet 2 inches in height
and well built, refused the baseball Of
fers because he was looking forward
toward the future rather than at the
present.
II want to get into a big corporation
and start at the bottom, not the middle,
where most college graduates start to
work" he said yesterday THE field
in the Interborough is large and ad-
vancement may come to good position
in any number of departments. MY
brother James began as subway
guard a year ago last June and he is
now foreman of the car department

HENRY WOOD HAS PLAN FOR
THE NAVY LABORATORY,
win Submit TO Secretary Daniels at
Once For Consideration.

Henry A Wise Wood.one of the men,
bers of the Naval Advisory Board. is in
hearty agreement with Secretary Of
the Navy Daniels that the first work
which should be undertaken by the
newly created body is the establish
ment of an adequate laboratory for re
search and experimental work
As told in dispatches from Washing
ton. Mr. Daniels has sent letters to
each member of the board asking for
his ideas as to the kind OF experiment
al laboratory the navy should have.
lie is desirous of obtaining estimates
as to the necessary cost of bnilding and
equipment so that he may make a rec
ommendation to Congress.
II have thought out a plan for a lab
oratory. but / should cOnsided il inn
proper to make it public before / have
submitted it to the Secretary of the
Navy" said Mr.. Wood yesterday. Il
believe the members of the Naval Re
serve Board will agree that an ade-
quate laboratory is absolutely neces-
sary if our wor kis to be more than
academic.
These members are practical men
who purpose >to apply their best
thought to the development OF naval
mechanism. If the same quality of
thought and the same amount of time
are given to this subject as are given to
industrial problems we should soon
achieve a navy second to none in eff
fectiveness.
But in order to work out the ideas
which will be suggested by members
of this board or officials of the navy.
there must be machiner. As men en-
gagged in inventive work we have learn
ed the desirability of thorough expert
mentation before we turn our machine
ry over to our customers. It is quite
as essential that all the ideas suggest
ed for naval machinery should be sub
mitted to the same practical test
"A sufficiently equipped laboratory
may involve a considerable expendi-
ture in the beginning. but il will save
money to the Government in the end.
| am unwilling to suggest any estimate
of the probable cost The cost and the
size of the plant will be governed by

offered at the meeting of the board on
October 6.
In my judgment the laboratory
should be located in Washington by all
means 1t should be entirely under
the control of the Navy Department
but the ideas which civilians may offer
for consideration should always be
welcomed"
Most of the New Members of the Ma
val Advisory Board were out Of the city
yesterday. Dr. Peter Cooper Hewett
said he had not given the subject Of
laboratory sufficient thought to war
rant an expression of opinion.
