Upon the completion of the Narragansett Bay joint exercises | with the Army the P fleet units will reiurn to the Western coast, where they will compleie the sched- uled gunnery exercises and carry out ne essary overhaul by ships' forces until the end of the fiscal year. From Narragansett Bay the scouting fleei ill proceed to the Southern drill irea, where the ships will carry out the remainder of the year's gunne exercises, and the veasels of the co ‘rol forc will proceed to their home ports for overhaul and Individual training. Consummation of the 1927 program of grand exercises, which involves the transfer of the battle fleet from the Pacific to the Atlantic and return, it is pointed out in the Navy Department, depends primarily upon the amounts of the various items which appear in the naval appropriation measure as enacted for the next fiscal year. The approved budget estimates for the fuel requirements are sufficient in this re-- spect, but should Congress make a material reduction in the amount, it sary for the department to make a corresponding curtailment in next year's exercise program. Re- ductions In other directions, it is pointed out, with respect to pay result- ing in a reduction of the enlisted per- sonnel of the Navy, would necessitate a reorganization of the units and the altering of the schedule of operations. The Navy Department, it is expect- d. will, during the next few weeks, reach a conclusion relative to the con struction of the six gunboats for serv. ice in Chinese waters. Certaln in- quiries made necessary in determining *he capacity of the Shanghal plant or carrying out the contract has been the cause of the delay in the award of the contracts to a Shanghai firm for the hull construction, which must be done on the Asiatic station. Definite decision has been made In the Navy Department changing the designs so that the new boats will be equipped with reciprocating engines instead of Diesel engines, which was the original intention. This change in the engine aquipment of these gunbo: it is nointed out by the department, is due to the fact that there are no facilities n_the Aslatic station for buflding and, what is most important, for the repair of engines of the Diesel type. gines for four of the boats, it is pected, will be constructed at the Y the Naval Acad- midshipmen, and of those graduating in June and| found to meet the physical require | ments of the service, 25 will be com- missioned second lleutenants In the Marine Corps, & number wili be com- | sioned assistant paymasters in the | Navy, while the remainder of the class will be commissioned ensigns in the line of the Navy. The exact number to be commis. 1926 class is not known, this being dependent upon the number of chief ¢ clerks and pay clerks who are wuind qualified for appointment to t grade as the re uit of an exam-! tion which will be held during the t part of February. The Suppl: Corps now has an authorized commi sioned strength of 577, the corps now being short of their authorized figure. Upon thefr graduation midshipmen were commissioned in the Marine Corps and five in the Supply LO;: not permitting any midshipmen resign upon graduation is expected to be rigidly enforced this year by the Department. At least two years of service following graduation will be required before resignations will be accepted by the Department. For the past several vears midshipmen have| been permitted to resign for the pur- Army, but with the enforcement of policy of the department immedlately subsequent | to graduation no members of the 1926 | class will seek commissions in the military establishment. - GOLDS Break a Cold Right Up with | “Pape’s Cold Compound” Take two tablets every three hours untl three doses are taken.
