at tlie time of Icaving'the service Enlistments in the reserve should be for four years and consecutive re enlistments should not be permitted unless un der very exceptional circumstances Men on the

ance or any grossly immoral or otherwise disgraceful conduct Should be cause for dropping their Sanies from the rolls Beyopd Hie expense Involved the only tion to the organization of sucli a force which occurs to me is that it might conceivably in certain cases operate to discourage re enlistments In the navy "I think tills would be more than compensated by the additional at traction which the prospect of ob taining this pension would afford in the first instance to persons con templating enlistment especially in View of the present increased 'pay on re enlistment and as a further safeguard I would limit the number In the reserve to say 20000 men "If the organization of this force were 'combined with a provision for subsidies to vessels having an Am erican registry and suitable for na val use in the event of war by re quiring that a certain proportion of tiieir crews should be made up of men in the naval reserve it would undoubtedly be more certainly ef fective but even without any such provision I believe a reserve of ex perienced men could thus be ob tained who not only would be near ly or quite as serviceable when called upon for duty as the active personnel but also immensely in crease the efficiency and consequent utility to the service of the re maining members of the naval militia Dry Dock Dewey "Since the last annual report was Submitted this structure has
