which they will observe various types
of construction and methods of
maintenance which have been desig-
mated by Deputy Commissioner
George II. Biles in charge of engi-
neering work.
The inspection will cover some
of the sections of the Lincoln high
way on which repair and mainte-
nance forces have been concentrated
because of the heavy movements of
Army trucks and the new construc-
tion which is under way in various
sections to facilitate the movement
of war material. These will in

Pittsburgh.
Arrangements have been made for
construction of snow fences along
the lines of the Lincoln and main

has been found under present con-
ditions to be cheaper to build such
fences than to pay men to shovel the
snow and in exposed sections and
where conditions are not favorable

fences. This has caused attempts to
charge the state high rentals for
use of land for the fences.

ference of the four captains with

ROUGH WEATHER DELAY FLEET
Men VIII Be Urevented Spending
Christmas Eve Ashore

WASHINGTON. - Postponement
from December "a to December 26
of the review of the Atlantic fleet
by Secretary Daniels at New York
was announced tonight at the navy
department, following receipt of q
message from Admiral Mayo, COM
mander of the units of the fleet now
returning from European waters.
Admiral Mayo informed the depart
ment that bad weather is delaying
the returning vessels and 1t would be
impossible to reach New York until
the day after Christmas.
The message from Admiral Mayo
was received by Secretary Daniels
aboard the presidential yatch May,
flower at Annapolis and was trans
United to the navy department,
which issued the following state
ment:
!. "The secretary of the navy has re-
ceived message from Admiral Mayo
saying that weather in the Atlantic
is delaying the progress home of the
Atlantic fleet. For that reason 1t
will be necessary to postpone the
naval review at New York from De-
cember "a to December 26."
The events of the welcome to be
accorded the officers and crews of
the returning vessels, including
review Of the feet by Secretary Dam
iels and parade of the men on Fifth
avenue and Broadway, will be car
ried out on the twenty-sixth as plan
ned for the twenty-fifth, It was said.
The delay In the fleets arrival at
New York will prevent the men
spending Christmas eve ashore, as
had been planned. However, it was
said that generous shore leaves will
be granted to the men, as It is ex--
pected that the feet will remain at
New York until January s or 10.

coming in like sheep being herded
by dogs to their fold without an eff.
fort on anybody's part, but it was q
day everybody could be proud of.
II have always had misgivings and
when the sixth battle squadron be-
came part of the grand feet those
misgivings were doubly strengthened
and knew then they would throw
up their hands. Apparently the
sixth battle squadron was the straw
that broke the camel's back.
Naval Prestige Brought Victory
However, the disappointment
that the grand feet was unable to
strike their blow for the freedom Of
the world is counteracted by the
fact that 1t was their prestige alone
that brought about this achievement.
During the last twelve months
4 you have been with us we have
learned to know each other very
we'll. We have learned to respect
each other. want YOU to take a
message to the Atlantic feet that
you have left very warm place in
the hearts of the grand feet which
cannot be filled until you come back
or send another squadron to repre-
sent you. You have given us a
sample of the Atlantic feet, which
l think, the Atlantic fleet, efficient
as 1t is, will find it very hard to re-
produce. ~
II understand that you are going
to Portland. where you are to get
leave. There is duty to perform in
bringing your president to these
waters and then you will return to
your own shores. And I hope that
in the sunshine, which Admiral Rod
man tells me always shines there,
you will not forget your comrades
of the mist and your pleasant as
sociations Of the North sea.
Goodbye and Good Luck
This is a queer place, as you have
found, but you are not the first to
find 1t out. There once was a great
explorer, Marco Polo, who after
travelling over the world for thirty
years one day found himself in the
North sea and then went home and
went to bed and did not travel any
more. ] trust 1t will not have the
same effect on any of you, but / can
say that those Of you / have seen
during the last twelve months
seem to have improved in many
ways, If that were possible, and 1
think the North sea has q health
giving quality which must be put
against all its bad points, of which
there are SO many.
II thank you again and again for
the great part the sixth battle
squadron has played in bringing
about the greatest naval victory in
history. I hope you will give this
message to your comrades; Come
back soon.'
Goodbye and good luck!"

been strengthened by the coming of
the American squadron.

"I could not let the sixth battle

David. II had intended to ask Ad-
mFal Rodman to permit me to say
something to the representatives of
all the ships Of the sixth battle
squadron on board his flagship, but
the exigencies of the service have
not permitted it. Therefore, as Ad-
