LS REESTOMD BRIDGE CEREMONY Both Pacific and Atlantic Units to Visit San Fran- cisco Feb. 26. By the Assoclated Press. Both the Pacific and Atlantic fleets will go to San Francisco to participate in the ground-breaking ceremony for the Golden Gate Bridge on February 26, Admiral William V. Pratt, chief of operations, yesterday informed Rear Admiral Richard H. Leigh, com- mander in chief of the United States fleet, the operating plans had been arranged to permit the San Francisco | visit. The vessels will be there from Feb-| ruary 18 to 27, after which they will"fo to the San Pedro-San Diego area, where the fleet concentration will continue until April 1. i Improvements Needed. Meanwhile Navy Department officials said the Navy is interested in improv- ing terminal facilities at San Pedro, Calif., for use of the fleet but lacks funds for development of the enterprise. They made it clear that no great base is contemplated at 8an Pedro, but im- provements would aid-in handling pro- visions aboard the warships and in con- veying men to and from the vessels. At present, the authorities asserted, many vessels have to anchor offshore, practically in the open sea, which in- creases hazards in inclement weather. Admiral Leigh has been directing an investigation into possibilities for im- proving facilities at San Pedro, which is the port for Los Angeles. Authorities at Los Angeles and at Long Beach, Calif.,, have offered co-operation in any plan to aid the fleet. No report has been received here from Admiral Leigh. The Scouting Force, which normally belongs in the Atlantic, has been on the West Coast since last March, and now is scheduled to remain there until April 1. Naval authorities here lacked information about when the Scouting Force will return East. Fog Covers Harbor. The officials explained that San Francisco Harbor is troubled with fog, |l and it takes a couple of hours for the fleet to get from a safe anchorage out through the Golden Gate. San Diego is a comparatively small harbor, and the destroyers are now based there, but it would not accommodate battleships, cruisers_and -vessels of the train as well, officials here asserted. As an| economy move, naval freight for the fleet is shipped by water from San Francisco to San Pedro, and this adds to the congestion at that port. CENSURE OF.ROOSEVELT DISCLAIMED BY W.C. T. U. Nashville Group Denies It Adopted Resolutions Protesting His Taking Office. NASHVILLE, Tenn., January 31 (®). —Officers of the Davidson County W.| C. T. U. yesterday issued a statement denying the adoption of resolutions by the organization to protest administer- ing the oath of office to President-elect Franklin D. Rocsevelt because of “open opposition to a part of the Constitution of the United States.” The statement declared that “no such resolutions” were adopted by the group, | ~although the subject was “informally | discussed,” and that resolutions quoted j were released “through a misunder- standing of a member of the Resolutions Committee, who was to communicate with the press.” CITY NEWS IN BRIEF.
