Stc'y. Denby Hears in?.rket Reports By Wireless
Secretary Denby said he doubted
very much the wisdom of artificially
keeping up "navy yards, some of
which must inevitably be closed, at
the expense of private yards, thereby
perhaps causing the destruction of
the latter.” When the navy yards are
not required to maintain the fleet, he
said, "they should be abandoned or
leased to private concerns who may
find employment for them.”

; could be accomplished only at the ex
pense of privately owned factories and,
I therefore, would not be of value to

a delegation representing "furloughed"
navy yard employes.
Several thousand of these employes
were given leave without pay as a
consequence of the naval agreements
