 An innovation this year was the re- view of the procession as it passed Main and Elm streets, in substitution for the march along the line by the warden and burgesses while the band played Hail to the Chief. This change made by Chief Engineer Ed. P. Teed, who also ordered that the inspection be made at ? o'clock, and the parade start at 2.30 instead of 2 o'clock as heretofore.
 The procession was formed in this i order: Stonington police department, Patrolman Thomas OConneu; Ston- | ington Fire Police, Captain Charles G. Cusman, ten men; Chief Engineer Ed P Teed and Assistant Charles D. Main; Imperial Band 26 men; Ston- ington Steam Fire Engine and hoss

Norwich bulletin., 1916-08-14

Secretary of the Navy Daniels has informed Congressman Ambrose Ken nedy that there is little possibility of making Narragansett bay the base for submarines of the United States navy. He points out that his department is actively engaged in developing the submarine base at New London, where there is already 9 naval station
 The suggestion to make Narragan- sett bay the submarine base was was made by the Providence Cham Der of Commerce in a letter sent July 28. It was sent through Congressman Kennedy, who took the matter up with Secretary of the Navy Daniels.
 The letter sent by Secretary of the Navy tDaniels is as follows: T have to acknowledge the receipt of your let ter of July 28, inclosing a letter from the secretary of the Providence Cham ber of Commerce on the subject of making Narragansett bay the head quarters for submarines of the navy department.
 Tn reply I have to inform you that the department is actively engaged in developing the submarine base at New London, Conn.,, where there Is a na- all tie facilities for the upkeep and repair of the submarines required in those waters. The establishment of a base in Narragansett bay so close to New London would, of course, be unnecessary.
 "So far as can. be- anticipated, how ever, Narragansett bay will contiQue to be, as it has been in the past. a base of operations for all clements of the Atlantic fleet and it may be ex- pected that submarines in consider able numbers will frequently be seen in Narragansett bay in the future.
