He formed members of the local bat- _talion that the vessel was in fine shape. and officers and men here are looking forward to her arrival with much pleas- ure. The arrival of the new vessel in time for the annual cruises will make 1t unnecessary to crowd the crew. as has been necessary in the past, because ®f the exceedingly large advances made in the complement of the local battal- fon under the command of Lieut. Comdr Finney Bascom Smith It also was said to be improbable that a training cruise would be made out of the transfer of the two vessels, because of the time necessary. Efforts, now are being made to put enough Teservists on permanent active duty as shipkeepers to handle the two vessels | Rese during their cruises. It was announced that Comdr. Hersey desires the serv- ces of two experienced firemen, who, upon application, will be made ship- keepers aboard the Allen before her de- | parture and assist in manning the two vessels during their trips.
