Vigorous protests are heing tiled by

North Atlantitc ports to the action of
lithpe House last Friday in passing the
hill authorizing the Se.cretary of thie
Navy to lease Ithe floating dry dlock
at the New ()rl-.ans Naval Stationl.
SIt is declared that Re.pres-ntative

were out of tih. chamllber. H lad the.y
SI,.11n presenlit they woutild have. blocke.l
r tihe passage of thei bill.
1- Th opposition to tilt, legislationl is
based on the cotntention that su ll a
r leas-e is unfair to private ship repair
; yards, in that it nlakehs available to
t( competitor at a nominal suel an
e expensive piece of equipment.
r Representat ive ( 'onnor admits
I that this bill was reported favorably
" by the naval affairs committee as a
' result of his insiste-nlo, and that he
t didl not call the attention of the
e }louse to the fact that the opponens

d In addition. he believes thtere  I
It( dange-r that the dry dock will beC
a taken elsewhere unless it is put to
Ill use. As long as the dry dock remains

get his fares he had to signal to the
[m motorman to stop the car so that he he
could get off the car to get into the ou
nald front car, as it was impossible to go the
nd through the aisles. After he got into wi

this method you lose no time what is

The little motor car just passed them A
a.- by. while those in the car waved a pl

were left behind. More than twenty- h
her five passengers failed to reach Algiers
li on account of the escapade of this
wonderful railroad. Just above Myrtle
Grove a little girl with a satchel In
her hand was being kissed farewell C
by an elderly lady. Everybody in P

stop for this little girl, but the train
lent just passed by. I

use- blondes were waiting eagerly, per- e
Bau- haps to meet a social engagement in
