FOR new Cannon
Sherley Plans to Make New
York, Now Weak, Practi-
cally Invulnerable.

The largest fortifications bill ever re-
ported to Congress was taken up in the
House Yesterday. 1t carries s21 .sS7. $50
and authorizes contracts amounting to
s12. 300, 600. The amount of direct appro-
priations is s16. .936, ,S33 more than carried in
the bill Of last year.
Among other items the bill provides for
the immediate manufacture of six l6-inch
guns. -four OF which are to be located
at Cape Henry for the protection of
Chesapeake Bay and the cities of Nor
folk. Washington and Baltimore. and two
at Rockaway Beach. Provision also is
made for ffty-four 3-inCh anti-aircraft
guns. An appropriation Of $4,000 is
made to acquire the invention for the
radio control of torpedoes, now the prop
erty of John Hays Hammond Jr.
The measure was submitted to the
House by Representative Sherley in an
elaborate speech. in which he emphasized
the fact that preliminary protection for
New York was to be provided through
the erection of a battery OF l6-inch guns
at RoCkaway Beach. Mr.. Sherley said:
The usual charge touching the city Of
New York is that it is possible for Ger
tain ships Of the largest types to reach
particular point. and from that point
to be out OF range of the existing bat
teries and still be able to lombard por-
tions of the city. That is true, and that
condition will be remedied as speedily as
It can be done"
