Foreign-Born Men
In Navy Are Fewer
Despite Bigger Roll
Increase Of 5000 Shown
In Report-EnIisted
Total Is l04,888

Despite an increase of approx
mately 5000 in the enlisted person
mel strength of the United States
Navy during the last fiscal year, the
total number Of foreign-born en-
listed men decreased from 4,516 to
4.317 during the year, according to
the annual report of Rear Admiral
James o. Richardson, chief of the
Bureau of Navigation, made public
today.
Enlisted strength of the Navy
stood at 104.888 at the close of the
fiscal year, Admiral Richardson re-
ported. He joined in the recommen-
dations of Secretary of the Navy
Swanson and Admiral William D.
Leahy, chief of naval operations,
that both commissioned and en-
listed strength of the Navy be in
creased by at least Is per cent to
fully man vessels of the Fleet.
Man Power Inadequate.
Despite the authorized increase of
5000 enlisted men during the last
year, Admiral Richardson said, YES
sells of the Fleet at the end of the
year were manned by only 85.3 per
cent of their intended personnel, as
compared with 86.1 per cent a year
earlier.
This allowance, he reported, is not
sufficient Ito provide for speedy and
efficient mobilization"
The assembly and transportation
of men of the Naval Reserve to COM
plete the manning of the ships will
occasion some delay and their fur
ther assimilation within the trained
organization of the combatant ships
will require time. which may well
not be available in the present dis
turbed international conditions" Ad-
miral Richardson said.
1t is desirable, he said, that Naval
Reserve personnel be available for
manning combatant and auxiliary
vessels now decommissioned but
ready for commissioning in emer-
gency and for manning auxiliaries
which will be obtained from the
merchant marine.
Pay Increases Asked.
Admiral Richardson advocated the
enactment by Congress of pay in
crease bill for naval commissioned
and enlisted personnel and of legis-
iation to provide for civilian naval
training, similar to the Army Citi-
zens' Military Training Corps legis-
lation. Such training is necessary,
he said, to provide increased knoWl-
edge of fundamental naval subjects
In the citizenry of the Nation and
thus increasing its potential reserve
of partly trained man power for
emergency availability"
Naval housing conditions at out
lying stations debarred from sharing
In public works programs, particu-
larly at Guam and Pearl Harbor,
Hawaii, are "deplorable, Admiral
Richardson reported. The need for
construction of quarters, both for
officers and for enlisted men at
these two Pacific island posts is
urgent, he said.

The Use of the lamp for the pur-

There are people who believe that
sun tan is healthy, but except for
the fact that it increases Vitamin

in children it is a useful procedure
