TRIP FOR MIDSHIPMEN Washington. D. CMav 23 There waa considerable talk of sendina the miHchin. man to Europe this year, during their cruise on various ships assigned to the various ships assigned to the dutyjof takin them on a summer trip. Every now and then some one suggests that a visits to European waters will be an education, a well as a diversion, in the training of th miasnipman at sea, but ths Navy Depart ment has never favored the idea, and does not now feel that any advlKlje would be derived from such a trip al though', of coarse, it would be enjoyable enough for the young men to go abroad. The officer would find it more or less of a tax. how ever, since at tha variouc ports touched by ships there would be cer tain obligation in the way of entertain ment. This would mean geeat expense which most of the officers view with no special pleasure, It is held, also, that the summer cruises should bapractial in all respects, and should be a part of the training of the midshipman. Jyw:uld have quite another aspect if the tOship man were tiker -n a round of thAurpe an ports Tt ' -use will, therefore, be confined to home waters.
