Wednesday ‘A navy department was appointed’|they leave New York for ‘Washington. and these men were to attend to ma- rine affairs, This department was often called the “marine committee.” On December 13th there was one per- “son from each colony in this depart- ment. The headquarters of this de- partment were at Philadelphia, then later the seat of the government. On October 30, 1775 congress agreed to fit out two more vessels and in the middle of December issued an order that thirteen more armed vessels should be built. These were to be ready for sea by March 1, the follow- ing year. The cost of these ships to be built would be $60,000 each. In November, 1776, congress the relative order of office in the army and navy. The rank is as fol- lws: An admiral was equal to a general; a vice admiral to a lieuten- ant general; a commodore to a briga- dier general; a captain of a ship of 40 guns equal to a colonel; a captain of a ship of 10 to 20-guns equal toa major and a Meutenant in the navy was equal to a captain in the army. The navy was almost completely destroyed at. the end of the Revolu- tionary war, of all the 13 frigates only one remained which was “The Alli- This ship was presented to the king of France to supply the place of another ship which was lost in an accident on the sea. After the war there was not much of a navy left, so it was neglected. The navy was reorganized later. During the time of the War of 1812 the navy consisted of 20 vessels. The British eagerly sought to destroy these ships. The lakes Ontario and Erie are of great importance to the United States and to have possession of these, they peer have vessels on them for pro- ni 1813 four more 74-gun ships were wilt and also six first class ata The services of the navy were not appreciated as fully as was deserved during the Civil war. Since this time our government has taken a special interest in naval af- fairs. Special schools and ae eretialy con- tinually being built; so now Amer- ica truly ranks very highly in naval affairs, being second in power only to Great Britain. Legality of Nevada Gambling Questioned] *: Carson City, Nevada, April ee Attorney General Gray Mashburn has issued an official opinion questioning the legality of gaming establishments set up under Nevada’s new wide open bling law. oeThe law, he said, was a “local op- tion measure” and few, if any, of the hundreds of flourishing gambling houses which have come into being} since Governor Fred B. Balzar signed the act, are now operating legally. He said the law required that be- fore state licenses were issued, coun- ties and incorporated cities Gesiring gambling must approve it by ordi- nance and grant permits. Mashburn added that he knew of no such ordi- For the first time since their ar- rival last Friday the royal party got outside the limits of New York city Monday. They journeyed to West Point on the destroyer Evans, a fam- iliar environment for the prince since he is a@ lieutenant in the Japanese navy, and inspected the cadets of the military academy. To some cadets the visit was a dis- appointment. By tradition at the academy, punishment of all cadets undergoing discipline is remitted when a visiting member of a reign- ing house requests it, Apparently the prince was not informed of the tradi- tion, for 50 cadets Tuesday still were “on the area”—that is, parading by themselves in their free time. Queen Marie of Roumania was the last to exercise the royal prerogative. Veteran Resident Of Bartlett Dead’ Devils Lake, N.
