 Widow May Be Quizzed Again
 Sergeant McCue said today that there were several points about the case which the police were concern cd about and for that reason he had Mrs. kirklowski notified by Officer Alfred Tanguay yesterday 10 come to his office. She answered a number of questions, the sergeant said, but the case is not cleared up yet, and il is probable that she will be in terviewed again. Frankly, we do Lot know whether it was suicide or not" Sergeant McCue said. We win probably complete our investigation ir a day or two.' It was also learned that consideration has been given to the theory that there might have been a struggle for possession of the pistol. inasmuch as kirklow- ski had brandished it, and pointed it at his wife before falling to the floor, wounded.

Hickey was not mak- ing an investigation into the case, but had been at the hospital short time after kirklowski was admitted. for the sole purpose of examining the wound in connection with his study of such injuries. In the Hut ington case in Windsor several months ago there was a difference of opinion among the investigators as to the proba ble presence of powder burns after the inf1icton of pistol wounds. and Detective Hickey had requested Dr. Purney to notify him when shooting cases came to his at tention, in order that hc might add to his information about such mat tcrs.

OF NAVY Strength
Admiral Hughes in Statement
Compares U. S. With
British Personnel.

BY the Associated Press.
The enlisted personnel of the Navy,
outside of its aviation branch, has
been reduced to point where it is
seriously affecting the efficiency of the
United States fleet, in the opinion of
Admiral Charles F. Hughes, chief of
naval operations.
Testifying before a House subcom-
mittee on the naval appropriation bill,
Admiral Hughes described the present
situation as acute and declared an in
crease to $500 from the existing
authorized strength of $4,000 men
would be necessary to meet require
ment Sduring the next fiscal year.
He said the non-aviation enlisted
personnel had been reduced by 1000
men since 1923 through a curtail-
ment of 1000 of the total strength
and increase of 5000 men assigned to
aviation.
"As new ships have been completed
or old ones commissioned" he
added, "crews have been provided for
them by commissioning older YES
sells and by reducing the crews of
vessels already in commission"
Nov, however" he continued, "the
number of ships to be maintained in
commission cannot, consistently with
the purposes and requirements o. the
Navy, be further reduced. Therefore,
as it becomes necessary to provide
crews for new construction there is
but on emethod remaining under the
limitations of $4,000 men-that of re-
ducing enlisted personnel allowances
of vessels in active operation"
Admiral Hughes submitted a table
to the committee showing the COM
parative strength of the naval per-
sonnet, in which Great Britain's force
exceeded the United States by more
than 10000 officers and men. Japan
ranks third
Great Britain's strength was shown
as 104,43l; United States, 93,036; ia
pan, 81,595; France, 60,834, and Italy,
45,397.
The United States exceeds Great
Britain, however, in the number of
Marines, the former having l8,8O7 and
the latter, 10,454.

MORE NAVY FUNDS
HELD NECESSARY
Addition of 8 Ships in 1880
Will Raise Expenses, House
Committee Suggests.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The prospect of adding eight ships to
the Navy in 1880 has brought from the
House appropriations committee the
suggestion that funds for that arm of
defense must be greatly increased or
the operations of the ships must be cur
tailed.
In reporting the annual supply bill
carrying $347,OOO,OOO today the commit
tee said it had provided for the addition
of 500 men to the enlisted personnel OF
the Navy and had made other efforts
to meet the situataion. The estimates
look to the addition of eight ships dur
ing the year, it said, bringing the total
to 327 ships in operation. The eight
new ships would be five f1rSt-line cruls-
ers, one first-line submarine and two
firSt-line fleet submarines.
Need More Men.
mo diminution is contemplated in
the operation of this force" the COM
mittee said, land yet, in view of that
fact, there must be need for additional
enlisted personnel, Tor greater OuCIayS
for maintenance and upkeep, and for
operating expenses. For the latter we
find an additional allowance for fuel
requirements. in other respects nothing
or practically So"
IF it be the intention to operate all
Of the ships now in commission as well
as those new ones approaching compile
ton as and when ready for commission
ing, it follows that there must be ex-
pansion in personnel and for the added
expense for operating and for the propel
upkeep of that part of the establish
ment maintained for the support of the
Navy af1oat.
1.-THE committee seriously questions
the wisdom of keeping in commission
and operating all of the ships embraced
| by the operating force plan. 1t ha:
found, however, that curtailed appro
priations have little influence on thu
policy in that regard.
There are two courses open to us
Either adequately to provide for oper
ating everything at tremendous extr;
cost, or, if the Navy itself will not til
up ships. for the Congress specificall.

CIVIC CENTER BILL
ACTION IS DELAYED
Senate District Committee
Considers Measure-To In
spect Proposed Site.

The Senate District committee yester-
day afternoon considered the bill to
authorize the municipal center develop
ment to house District activities, but
postponed action until its next meeting
to permit members to inspect the pro-
posed area on both sides of John Mar
shall place.
The committee members debated the
question of whether to confine the pur-
chase of land to the two squares facing
the District Supreme Court or to in
clude also the two squares facing Penn
sylvania avenue. The bill, as transmit
ted by the Commissioners, provided for
only the northern two squares, but the
House District committee amended it to
take in the entire area.
Sackett Says Economy Caused Action.
Senator Sackett, Republican, of Ken.
lucky said he thought the House de-
cision was in the interest of economy,
because the value of the remainder of
the area would increase if only half is
acquired now. The Kentucky Senator
also wanted to know if the United States
is going to pay for the present District
Building when that structure becomes
part of the Federal group. Commissioner
Dougherty said he did not know, but he
assumed that would be done.
Senator King, Democrat OF Utah, SAID
his mind was still open on the question,
but that he cGAlld not see why the Dis
trict government could not remain in
it's present building and construct an
addition on the south. Commissioner
Dougherty said that would not take
care of all the municipal housing needs,
because it is advisable to keep the sew
eral courts and the recorder Of deeds
near the District Supreme Court struc-
ture.
Highway Bill Report Favorable.
The committee ordered a favorable
report on a bill which would enable the
Commissioners to abandon proposed
streets shown on the highway plan
when it is found inadvisable or I'M
necessary to open and grade them.
The committee discussed the neceS-
sity for obtaining Senate action at this
session on the bill which has passed
the House to give the Federal Govern
ment a better method of condemning
land it needs in Washington for Federal
buildings and parks. 1t was decided
that if the measure cannot be passed
on the unanimous consent calendar,
Chairman Capper should make a mo-
ton in the Senate to proceed to the
consideration of the bill.
