Government Expected to Make Bl(Approprutm For Point | Judith Harbor Improvements—Automobilists Are Con- finin. With Regulations—Band Concerp Tonight. m &eu‘m abandon- fment of the naval station on the Thmmes, with the discharge of the fow m.fl of Westerly granite and #t a much less proportionate cost TWhile the naval station on the Thames is not formally abandoned, all that is necessary to make the abandonment complete is the ordering act of con- gress and the reversion of the valu- ablo property back to the state of Connecticat, and then to the heirs of the owners who transferred the prop- erty to the state. Several months ago the war depart- ment, Representative George H. Utter of Westerly and others interested in the completion of the Puint Judith harbor of refuge, which is visited but by very few vessels, urged upon con- gress the appropriation this year of Al 331,400 For aaditional work on the breakwater, it being understood that 2o greater amount could be used dur- tng the fiscal vear. Now conditions Bave changed, and the war dapa.rnnm and Mr. l.‘tur have asked congress to fnerease the appropriation to $160,000. n is probable that the increase will bo granted, as the senate committee en commerce has accepted the rec- emmendation. The new condition has been brought about through the purchase by the freakwater compeny, which has the Point Judith contract, of a large new o which will permit it to supply . & vastly increased amount of material every yoar. The former quarry, locat- @d at Sachem's Head, Conn, with a maximum output of only 10,000 tons stone per month, and upon Which the recommendation of an ap- m of only $31,000 was dased, been disposed of and a new one at Groton, near Gales Ferry, which will permit of greatly construction work at the er, and its entire completion within _two years. In a statement which Mr. Utter has filed with the @enate, the following explanation of (! the new conditions with regard to the eatire product is made: “They now bave an ave: rage capac- |’ output, starting May, 1912, of about tons, or $51,190 per month, as against 10,000 tons, or $17,300 per month. The breaiwater company pow employs a force of about 215 men wt the quarry and breakwater, and with this force can complete the Point Judith harbor of refuge in two sea- sons, emxding December, 1913 “Cotonel Abbott having made his astimate, sugzesting $31,200 for 1913— of date of February and , was not then familiar with the existing changed conditions—but when Be lomrmed of the contractors’ new RH, Bixby, plant and increased facilities in Jllne, 1853, he made a revised estimate of 3160,000 for 1912, this amount now be- ing recommended by General William It was entirely upon the orlginal recommendation of $160,000 in th estimates of July 1, 1911, that the breakwatee company expended $300,- 000 addittonal for the prompt comple- tlon of the work in two seasons. “The adoption of $31,400, instead of the vriginal $160,000, as recommended, would stop the operation ahout Sept. nd would be an irreparable d a most serlous financlal hard- p for the contractors; ‘besides, by shoaling of the harbor, it would cost the government possibly $250,000 sary dredging in 1913 and de- completion of the work two years, Mr. Utter said that he believed it would be quite possible to secure the consent of the house to increase the Point Judith appropriation to the re- quired amount. “Heretofore to secure work, onl tion it has been impossidble more than $31,400 for the said Mr. Utter, “as congress had before it the recommenda- of General Bixby for that amount, and, of course, would not grant more. But now that the contractors have ac- quired nmew quarries that will permit of more rapid construction I think the desired $160,000 can be secured.” The Fifth company, Westerly, and the other commands of the First Ar- tillery district, Rhode Island National | Guard, are now in full military swing and are working hard at drill and mastering the intricacies of the big guns at Fort Greble, with earnest de- sire to mlJ\r‘ a creditable showing dur- ing the nual encampment.

Mr. Editor: Does the ‘“ole houn’ dawg” belong to the beef trust, or is he fond of “bull moose” steaks? If the “dawg” gets on the scent of the moose, will beef go down a cent, so that the poor won't have to substitute oxygen or excessive smoke as the for beef? And would Wilson accept a venison steak from the “ole hound dawg” for the suke of political econ- omy?
