KEEPS THE LOCATION Of SHIPS SECRET

tender, /; submarines, IS; submarine
tender, /.
The Navy League Of the United
States furnishes the following infOr
nation concerning recruiting for the
navy:
I'm the summer OF 1916 there were
5000 enlisted men In the navy. Con.
gress then authorized an Increase up
TO 1886. But despite the efforts OF
the department and its officers, the en-.
listed force is now only 53.5O0-or
24,5OO short Of even our peace-time
complement. Not only Is the Atlantic
fleet short Of seamen. but the 16 battle
ships In the reserve force of our east
eIn coast have only about % per cent
of their needed crews.
Completes for Men.
"In recruiting the navy competes for
men against industrial concerns and
civil employment, where high wages
now prevail. Further, men in civil life
do not know the navy, and Shun ii as
being mysterious and fOrbidding. They
do not know the advantages and the
pleasure it offers. Recruiting officers
are handicapped by being strangers in
the district where the work takes
them-and our people are lncreduouS
to the offers of strangers"
1t is the intention of the Navy
league, acting with the sanction of the
navy department, to ask its members
to aid the work of recruiting for the
navy throughout the country by sup
plying information concerning just
what the navy does for young men and
the advantages it offers, ,thspa, i, nooco
- Nurse tits expected that in
war time the ordinary patriotism of the
people will supply the recruits that are
needed.
1t seems likely as a result of legiS-
latiOn that large sum will be put at
the disposal of the president to be
used if necessity arises. The legisla-
Ala, quantity Of letters and papers
ton reads like this: "TO enable the
president to secure the expeditions de-
livery Of materials, equipment and mu-
nitiOns, and to secure the expeditions

dent may direct to be expended at the
direction and in the discretion of the
president $150,0O0,000, or so much
thereof as it may be necessary, and to

The big guns and the general arma-
ment Of our naval vessels have been
made from time to time a matter Of
public information, but today there Is
no strong desire on the part Of the
United States government that undue
publicity be given to the strength of
its ships In armor plate for defense
and in batteries of guns for Offense.
