The bill will be reported to both houses tomorrow. It probably will be ready for the president’s signature tomor- row or Saturday. The senate amendment providing for investigation by a commission of the advisability of establishment of a se naval academy was stricken out. The item providing $500,000 for a suitable site on the Columbia river for a submarine and torpedo base also went out. Shows You How They Look! The conference agreement brings to a successful close the biggest constructive navy yard policy in the nation, and is a triumphant feather in the cap for United States Sen. Miles Poindexter, who introduced and fought for the plan to fit up ~ the Bremerton navy yard for government battleship construc-: tion. His plan was jeered at by unfriendly Seattle newspa- pers at first, but they all came to his point of view when, much to their surprise, the senate passed his bill. The navy yard bill will bring to the Puget Sound navy yard one of the biggest payrolls in the Northwest. Mechanics ai other skilled workers, to the number of 3,000, will probably be his x killed him.

' To Seattle, the navy yard measure is of tremendous com- mercial value. It transfers from private shipyards in the East to the government yard the construction of many battle- ships, running into millions of dollars. The bill as it now stands authorizes the immediate equip- ment of four navy yards, including the Puget Sound yard, for battleship construction. The secretary of the navy is then authorized to order the actual construction of a battleship here. Ss PRESDENTTO SAYS LEE PROMISES % > | TALK TO HEADS JOBS TO BOLO CLUB OF RAILROADS BY ROBERT J.
