Subcommittee of Committee on Naval
Affairs Says it has Established Na
tionwide Reputation for Ilusiness
Efficiency.
-low the -Burvau of Supplies and Ac
counts at Washington, under Rear Ad
milial Sumel McGowan, has i'isen to
the war emergency and made the navy
the ilarvl of the country, is indicated
In the report to congress of the sub
committee of the committee on naval
affairs which recently made a thor
ough investigation of the navy depart
ment. High praise is meted out to
Admiral McGowan for the high state of
elliciency In witch his departient was
foitid. Friends of the "Old Tar" here
will be interested ii reading this re
port whiich Was;i as follows:
"'The lunreau of Suipplies and Ac
cotnts is tile navy's great Isiness of
lice, and incidentally it is one of the
biggest en terprises in the Uniited
Stat's. 'ider its ciiief, Iteal Admiral
Saiitl .\l Gowani, it has established
and wll deserves a nationli-wide repu
tation for busintess etliciency.
It has the responsibility of feeding,
clothing. and pay ing the entire per
soniel of the navy, and supplying all
vessls ot t le iavy witi stores and
eiluipien t for etlicient operation.
When war came, it found the bireau
with a 1iec:1e-t i ile olgani/izationl of 128
olliters and civilian s. lat personnel,
lowever, had been so constantly in
do(t rinatetd with the laymaster Cen
eral's policy of doing everything with
a view of preparing for any eveitual
ity, tilat it n'eeded only augmentation
to handle smoothly tile vast increase
in its daily business (letails. The per
solinel iicreased to mote than 700,
but. lt' system remained unchanged,
and tlie result was that :100,000 men
anld 1,100 sItips were just as promptlY
and well provided for as 55,000 Imn
an1idl :100 ships liad(l been before the war.
"ne of tle most, important prob
leni the buralu had to solve was the
pl:ing of contracts and secuir ing de
livery of large stocks of winter cloth
ing for a navy that by winter had in
creased inany tim1es its original size.
Tlis icould not be accomIpslihed by
merely placing the contracts and then
waiting delivery. The requiirements
for thlie ariy and our allies had made
suchl a demandllllf onl the mills anld onl ilhe
m11.a ni facli rers that all con tracIs had
to be placed with tile greatest. care and
iinder varying con1dItions to meet tle
navy's minaeldiate iceds.. The Pay
miaster teneral sent a nmber of com
Iiissioned otici'rs " flt' mills and fac
to'ies to talk lot 11 miiployees and en
('ol rage them to illcr ease p rodliction
