GUNNERY EFFICIENCY.
(By Associated PTess)

Washington, Dec. 12.-Some idea
OF the great work confronting the
navy when the United States entered
the war is set forth in the annual re-
port of Rear Admiral Earle, chief OF
ordnance, made public today. To this
bureau alone fell the task of expend-
ing during a single year more than
half billion dollars for guns and
equipment.
In discussing seemingly impossible
problems, Admiral Earle disclosed
that the navy was called upon not
only to arm all American war craft
auxiliari,s ana TIE merchant fleet
but to provide armament for British
French, Italian, Belgian and Russian
shipping. Guns of ) to 5inch calibcl
were at a premium and the demand
for them was ten times greater than
the existing capacity for manufac-
tur2. A total of 937 crafts OF al
kinds, not in the regular navy, were
armed between July l, 1917, and July
/, 1918.
Gun mounts formed separate
knotty problem. The facilities created
for their manufacture met all urgent
needs. The Linderman Steel anc
Machine company, of Muskegon
Mich, the report stated, delivered 36C
mounts for 4-inch guns % days ahead
of schedule and established record
for other manufacturers.
Only brief reference was made tc
two Of the most striking accomplish
ments of the bureau, the DESIGNING
huilding and shipping of the 14-inck
rifles on railway mounts which ef-
fectually hammered the German real
positions in the closing weeks of the
war, nd the development of 8 tractor
mount for rifles up to 7-inch calibei
from which the guns coul5 be fired
| This latter achievement, never at
tanned by the allied armies, the report
said, was hailed in France with ever
greater satisfaction than was the ar
rival of the first of the 14-inch mon
sters comprising the naval batteries
Failure to obtain sufficient sup
ply Of depth bombs used by American
destroyers, hampered efficient opera
tions against enemy submarines. BY
strenuous efforts, however, the short
agc was overcome and before wal
ended, American deatroyers ware
using depth bombs freely, and thi'
the report said, aided in curbing Ger
man submarine operations in the
closing months. of tire war.
The fire control equipment used or
American war craft is on par with
that in any navy, Admiral Earle said
and range finding and sighting de,
vices of the fleet have been geratly
improved.
''The efficiency of our gunnery as,
sisted by these new instruments" he
aided, Should find our ships in the
next sea battle at leat equal in gun
ncry to any enemy"
The frt Of the 16-inch, J0-calibei
main battery rifles for new dread
,naughts has been tried out, with {
success that exceeded expectations
fixing this monst.r Of naval warfare
an "an exceptionally splendid rjiecc
of ordnance" Another new naval wea.
pom, an 8-inch bomb-throwing howit
zcr. is being delivered to destroyer
or larger craft.
