CHICAGO MAY LOSE
BIG NAVAL STATION
Reduction in Forces Likely to
Close Plant, Which Turned
Out 100, ,Oc0 in War.
By the Associated Press.

GREAT LAKES, ILL.,, March e.
The middle west may lose its only
big naval establishment, the naval
training station here, as a result of
the successful conclusion of the dis
armament conference at Washington.
Wreckers have nearly completed
the destruction of the vast war
tune camps through which nearly
100000 embryo seamen passed dur
ing 1917 and 1918, and now, as a re-
suit of the contemplated reduction
in naval forces. the permanent sta
tion may be abandoned and training
concentrated on the Atlantic and
Pacific coasts.
Expect Funds TO De Low.
Naval officers here expect the ap-
preparation for the fiscal year start
ing July / to be considerably under
the 100000 provided for the present
year and probably only enough to
provide men to guard the S5,0o0,000
worth of government property at the
station. To guard the immense plant
and provide officers for the two naval
schools here, one turning ont aviation
mechanics and the other radio OPP
orators, would require about 200 Off
GERS and men. and an estimated ap-
propriatio of between 100000 and
S250.000.
lOiAl dDdN1bnl0cnt OF great ldkeS is
opposed by the officers here because
the middle west furnishes a large
part of the nations naval forces, and
the ninth district headquarters here
has more reservists under its control
than any other district ip the coun-
try. More men were trained at great
lakes during the war than at all other
training camps combined. After the
armiStice 10000 ex-seamen in the
ninth district alone were enlisted in
the reserve force out of a total Of
250,000 reservists for the entire
country.
Inland Sailors Best.
Saltwater states do not produce as
good sailors for modern lighting ship.
as the prairie states OF the middN
west, officers here say. There is no
place on a modern forty million dol
lar battleship for the d-fashioned
saltwater seaman, and the pic
turesque tar of the past has given
way to highly skilled mechanics.
whose training in middle western
factories, machine shops and foun-
dries fit them for the specialized serv-
ice of an electric driven and oper-
ated floating fort.
The original great lakes naval train
ing station cost S5,000,000.
