TRIAL FOR NAVY
OF MEYER PLAN
Secretary Wins Point BeforeHouse Committee
TEST OF YEAR TO BE MADE
Rear Admiral Rodgcra HandledWithout Gloves at Hearlnj Cabi-
net Officer Denies that PaymasterGeneral Invented CostkeepingSystem at Yards Shot at Cone
At the executive session of the HouseCommittee on Naval Affairs yesterdaySecretary of the Navy Meyer appeared-to make his last appeal for the adoptionof his plan of naval reorganization Itwas as lively a session as any that bodyhas held since the controversy along thisline warmed up with the convening ofCongress
Secretary Meyer went after Rear Admiral Rodgers the naval paymaster general and handled him without glovesHe flatly contradicted Admiral Rodgersstatement before the Naval Affairs Com-
mittee that he was the inventor of thecost keeping system at navy yards andalso took exception to his assertion thatthe system was in operation In eightyards According to the Secretary thesystem is in operation in only one yardand not completely at that
Discussing Admiral Rodgers testimony-to the effect that the system cost noth-ing Secretary Meyer insisted that as amatter of fact It had already cost 520000
for its partial installation In the one yardreferred would costmore before In complete working order
Cnpps Indorsed PlanAnother Interesting feature of th ses-
sion was the presentation to the committee by Secretary Meyer of an official indorsement of the substance of the Meyerplan from Chief Constructor Capps whoIs now so bitterly opposed to it
This was a recommendation from thechief constructor that authority overhulls and machinery be divided in thenavy yards and was made to the thenSecretary of tho Navy some years agobefore the Newberry plan went into ef-
fect and before the chief constructorenjoyed the complete power which ha didunder
toBostonand 12000

According to those members of the com-mittee who look with favor on
plan and who have been standingthe Secretary he took the testimony
given by Chief Constructor Capps withreference to the naval organization meth-ods in British and German navy yardsand was able to demonstrate that notonly did Mr Capps figures and factsbear out his conclusions but that as amatter of fact the matter lie presentedamounted substantially to proof that thoplan proposed by the Secretary Is rightin line with the very latest schemes inuse In the naY yards of the two governments mentioned
Proves Something IH WrongTaking the controversy which grew out
of the varying facts and figures presentedby Chief Constructor Capps and RearAdmiral Hutch Cone chief of the Bureaucf Steam Engineering as a basis MrMeyer insisted that this very propositionproved that something was wrong underthe present system and that a changewas Imperative He pointed out that Inasmuch as tho Bureau of Steam Engineering whose money was being spent for acertain purpose with responsibility resting In the bureau had one set of figuresand the Bureau of Construction whichwas spending the money but was not re-sponsible had another sets pass-Ing through the managing constructor incharge of a yardthat It was high tfmesome change was made to correct thepossibility of such conditions continuingto exist
At the conclusion of the session apublican member of the committtee wusually knows what he is talking aboutsaid that the committee stood approximately 2 to 1 In favor of the plan proposed by the Secretary and that he wouldbe authorized to put It Into complete op-eration for one year

THE HARVESTL-
ife is pretty cheap and yellow and it often bores a fellow if
he thinks about his troubles through the long and weary day if
he talks about his sorrows laying bets that all tomorrows will be
just as stale and somber just as grewsome and as gray Ah the
world is what we make it if we fuss around and rake it hustling
for a crop of trouble well have windrows high and wide but itwill not pay for reaping and the thrashers will be weeping when
they see the scurvy harvest that has been your boast and pride Ifyou fire all thoughts of sadness and go raking round for gladness-
if you just insist that worry take its grip and trunk and roam youare sure to find the mowing pays for all the work and sowing andthe thrashers will be whooping on the day of Harvest Home All
my metaphors are tangled and this rhyme is badly jangled but
youll doubtless catch its meaning if you use a hook and line do
not mind the ills that bore you nor the clouds that threaten oeryou every day provides its solace and tomorrow will be fine
