34 MARINE REVIEW AND MARINE RECORD. | [Dec. 25, Despite the reluctance of some of the members of the house committee on naval affairs to authorize the construction of additional naval vessels at the present session of congress, Secretary Moody, who appeared before the committee last week, strongly recommended the program outlined in his annual re- port. He emphasized the necessity for thoroughly training men for the naval service, and urged that provision be made for the construction of two steel ships for training landsmen and ap- prentices, to cost $375,000 each, and one wooden sailing brig for ini rentices, to cost $50,000. He also urged the authori- phat ac powerful battleships along the general lines of the Connecticut and Louisiana, to cost about $7,000,000 each, and em- phasized the wisdom of the policy of continuing the building of ships which could keep the sea for the longest possible length of time and could take their place in line of battle against the most powerful ships in any foreign navy. He also advocated the construction of two hospital ships, but opposed the construction of any more submarines for the present. eet et i request accompanied by the necessary data.
