PHONE 160 ' 261 STATE ST.
WASHINGTON, CAP.) Al
though me material contrition of
naval ships was somewhat im
proved during the last fiscal year.
Admiral E. W. Eberle, chief of
naval operations, declared in his
annual report that because of in
adequacy of funds "many altera
tions of military value have been
held in abeyance.
Due to lack of sufficient fund?,
he explained, the upkeep of the
fleet had been, confined chiefly
to repairs.
"Every effort continues to be
directed toward expenditures for
npkeep only," he said. "The only
purpose of any alteration is to
effect improvements. Naval sci
ence, in wnicn tne tniteu states
has so Ions led, constantly de
mands improvements, but the
funds available do not permit
making the improvements desired.
"It is obvious, that the mainte
nance of the industrial shore es
tablishments in excess of the ma
terial needs ,of the fleet 'makes
havv inroads on funds. This con
dition will always result from I
the operation of any plant , :;t oihr j
than maximum capacity. Th.' i
work loads at none of the ir.du-
trial yards during the past year
have approximated more thf!!i
one-half of the physical capacity
of the plant. The samp is tru
of the maintenance of purely mil
itary stations in reduced opera
tions." Operations of the navy were re
viewed broadly in the report, i
mention being especially made of j
the beneficial results of the lac- j
tieal exercises carried out in the j
various units of tho fleet as well
as of "the decided benefit-' ob
tained from thu tactical and
strategical maneuvers of the fleet
in Hawaiian waters.
"The usual forms of gunnery
exercises," the report continued,
"have been carried out together
with a number of exercises de
signed to stimulate advanced gun
nery methods. The need of a
radio-controlled target for certain
gunnery problems has again been
emphasized."
Mentioning tho Asiatic fleet as
progressing "in both tactical and
strategical training for its spe
cial employment," the report re
counted how that unit with other
fleets in September and October
1924 kept open Shanghai and pre-
