ELLSWORTH'S
SECRETARY IVY
ASKS LOOSER
PISE STRINGS
POINTS TO DETERIORATION DUE
TO SHORTAGE OF ANNUAL
APPROPRIATIONS
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20. (/P)—A
plea for a loosening of the govern
ment’s purse strings so that the navy
may maintain its full strength provid
ed by law, was made by Secretary
Wilbur in his annual report to Pres
ident Coolidge.
The question of officer personnel
had developed into a dilemma, the
secretary said, and with limited funds
at hand it had been necessary to
concentrate on repairs rather than on
alterations required to keep the first
i line ships up to essential military
I standards for fleet service.
1 In 1925, Mr. Wilbur said, the navy
I got along with an undersized per
. sonnel—5,160 line officers being on
the rolls when the report was com
piled. The authorized strength is
5,499. Lack of funds also made im
possible the maintenance of the “re
quired” 86,000 enlisted strength, the
average for the year being nearly
4,000 under that figure.
The secretary gave it as his view
that reduction of the Naval Academy
enrollment had brought the navy to
face a serious question as to how it
could function with an insufficient
number of officers. He urged that
appointments to Annapolis again be
made on a basis of five for each
member of Congress instead of the
three necessitated by recent cuts in
the budget.
“The present limit of appointments
to three for each member will not pro
vide sufficient commissioned person
nel for maintaining the strength of
the line of the navy on a proper
basis,” the report said, “even if no
appointments are made to the various
staff corps from graduates of the
Naval Academy.”

Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greamess of
the Northland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm
faith in the Territory's possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with Al
askan progress can accomplish much. “Looking Ahead” to still great
er things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one way that
a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pain
stakingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”
