order he had made against an item in the naval appropriation bill increasing the cost limit of dry dock No 4 Brooklyn Navy from 515WOOO to 52500000 and be- fore it got through had voted unanimous ly to strike from the bill every cept it previously intended to give for continuing the work at Brooklyn Puget Sound and Harbor By its action the House it impossible for the States to continue work on these longer than money at hand shaU last Members of the House Naval Affairs Committee and many others Republicans- and Democrats regulars and were angered at Mr and claimed after the House adjourned that he was acting under orders from Speaker Cannon and Representative James R Mann of Illinois chief watch dog of the Treasury Mr Staffords point of order was made against the item increasing the appropria- tion for the Brooklyn dry dock while the House was in Committee of the Whole on the ground that it changed existing law Although members of the committee one by one trooped over to Mr Staffords desk and pleaded with him he remained obdurate Members of the committee showed Mr Stafford that unless the increased ap- propriation wag authorized it would bo impossible to construct large enough to care for two big ships now building not to mention the 26000 ton leviathan to fee authorized at this session of Congress The country they said would nowhere have a dock capable of receiving these monster menofwar Mr Stafford main- tained there was nothing in the testimony of Secretary of the Navy Meyer or other experts to show the need for enlarging the docks in question- If we are going to follow an asinine policy like this said Mr Fitzgerald we might as well do nothing at all What is the use of spending money to complete dock that will be of no use and will eventually have to be torn re- built Under the rules Mr Staffords point of order was sustained Vote the whole thing out yelled and this the proceeded to do out the to continue work at Brooklyn 5600000 to continue work at

Stafford Wedges in Point of Order

and Upsets Decision

Representatives plead with Obstructor to Desist and Conclude by

Voting Out Appropriation

The got peevish yesterday afternoon when Representative Stafford ofWisconsin insisted on a point of orderhe had made against an item in the navalappropriation bill increasing the costlimit of dry dock No 4 Brooklyn Navy

from 515WOOO to 52500000 and be-

fore it got through had voted unanimously to strike from the bill every cept itpreviously intended to give for continuingthe work at Brooklyn Puget Sound and

Harbor By its action the Houseit impossible for the States

to continue work on these longerthan money at hand shaU last

Members of the House Naval AffairsCommittee and many others Republicans-and Democrats regulars andwere angered at Mrand claimed after the House adjournedthat he was acting under orders fromSpeaker Cannon and RepresentativeJames R Mann of Illinois chief watchdog of the Treasury

Mr Staffords point of order was madeagainst the item increasing the appropria-tion for the Brooklyn dry dock while theHouse was in Committee of the Whole onthe ground that it changed existing lawAlthough members of the committee oneby one trooped over to Mr Staffordsdesk and pleaded with him he remainedobdurate

Members of the committee showed MrStafford that unless the increased ap-propriation wag authorized it would boimpossible to construct largeenough to care for two big shipsnow building not to mention the 26000ton leviathan to fee authorized at thissession of Congress

The country they said would nowherehave a dock capable of receiving thesemonster menofwar Mr Stafford main-tained there was nothing in the testimonyof Secretary of the Navy Meyer or otherexperts to show the need for enlargingthe docks in question-

If we are going to follow an asininepolicy like this said Mr Fitzgerald wemight as well do nothing at all Whatis the use of spending money to complete

dock that will be of no use and willeventually have to be torn re-

builtUnder the rules Mr Staffords point of

order was sustainedVote the whole thing out yelled

and this the proceeded to doout the to continue work
