Mare Island navy yards, respectively.
The bids were New York 1880, 1925; Mare

the ships in the government yards was
reached at a conference between Presi-
dent Wilson and Secretary Daniels.
Bids of all private builders for these
ships exceeded the limit of cost fixed by
Congress.
The secretary announced he would ask
Congress to authorize the equipment OF the
navy yard at Philadelphia for battleship

Mr.. Daniels said, could be laid In August
or September of next year. The battle
nhip California now building at the New
York yard will be off the ways by that
time.
In submitting its estimates the New
York yard proposed to build either a
turbine drive ship or one equipped with
the combined steam and electrical ma
chinery first authorized for a heavy war
ship when this system was decided upon
for the California.
Secretary Daniels said a decision would
be reached later as to whether the cleo
trio drive system should be installed on
one or both of the new ships. Estimates
for electric drive were lower than those
of the straight turbine type.

10000 ALIENS
english Government Pays for Their
support on Isle of Man.

Douglas, Isle Of Man. Dec, ?.-There
are almost 3o.CO aliens of military age
internod on this island. all men, and
ment at an approximate cost OF ten
slillinss per capita weekly. Elaborate
camps. with modern sewage systems,
have been constructed, and a beginning
has been made in establishing work
shops where idleness can be turned into
Industry. In time all the informed aliens
may be brought here. There are almost
1900 at Alexandra palace in London still.
There are no longer any informed at
Frimley. near Aldershot.
There are still many thousands OF
been interned and all rave a chance Of
appearing before a tribunal established
for the purpose Of deciding whether in
ternment is desirable. When informed
they can communicate with their home
governments through the American EN-
bassy which still maintains two men at
the former home of Princ Lchnowslty
In Carlton terrace. For many months
these two men have been Edward j..
Lowry of New York and Leland II. Lit
tletield of Providence.
The agitation calling for the Wholesale
internment of enemy aliens, which a
part of the London press carried on
most vigorously last year. has now died
down and there appears to be no general
criticism that the home Office is not
handling this difficult problem fairly
and successfully.
