DENIES THERE is EXODUS
OF NAVY YARD MECHANICS
Office of Commandant Knows of No
General Movement Toward
Remington Arms Plant.

Although the Remington Arms Com
pany representative in this city stated to-
day that approximately $50 machinists
would be sent to the new plant at Eddy
stone, Pa, next week there was no indica-
ton that any large number Of navy yard
mechanics had resigned or intended to re-
sign. At the office of the commandant
of the yard it was stated that if any men
intended to leave there for the Eddystene
plant the knowledge Of 1t had not reached
the officer in charge. but that individuals
might come and go without any stir being
created. In answer to the question
whether there was any rumor or indica-
ton of a large number Of mechanics leav-
ing distinctly negative reply was re-
ceived.
Walter F. Smith, who has been recruit
ing mechanics here for the Remington
people, saw Secretary Daniels of the Navy
Department here today and had ten
minute talk with him. Mr.. Smith told
the Secretary Of the company is hiring
American citizens only and that they are
not taking men who have contracts with
the government, nor have they offered
any special inducements to get men away
from the navy yard.

BIG SH|PBU|[D|NC FIRMS
To BID FOR SUBMARINES
Secretary Daniels Postpones Date for
Opening Estimates on Advice
of His Council.

Opening of bids for sixteen new sub
marines authorized by the last Con-
gress has been postponed to Septem-
Der 90, Secretary Daniels has an
nounced. in order that two shipbuild-
ing companies which have obtained
patent rights to build boats of type
now used successfully by two or more
of the European belligerents may have
a chance to compete.
Mr.. Daniels took that action on the
strong recommendation of his advisory
council. 1t was urged that not only
was it desirable that the two big con-
Germs involved. the Newport News
Shipbuilding and Drydock Company
and the New York Shipbuilding Com
pany. be added to the United States
concerns ready to furnish submarines.
but also that information as to the
European undersea boats would be
particularly valuable in view of the
contemplated expansion of that branch
of the navy.
The companies obtained the right to
build the European submarine known
as the Hay-Denny type some time ago.
but interrupted communication win
Europe due to the war made II I'M
possible for them to get data on which
to submit bids by August 2, the date
originally set for the opening of bids
Secretary Daniels said the depart
ment was glad to see large shipbuild-
ing companies entering the submarine
field Heretofore competition had been
chiefly between smaller concerns, he
said. and the time required for con-
struction. limited to a maximum of
two years by the contracts. had seemed
excessive.
The new vessel will be similar in
size to the L-type boats now in COM
mission. They will have surface
cruising radius Of between 5000 and
5000 miles and be equipped with the
new three-inch disappearing gun re-
Gently developed by naval engineers.
The class design probably will be the

although boats built under several diff
ferent patents will he included.
