He sad construction of these sewers was authorized under four separate resolutions.

Adams Rejects Plea for Cruiser Named Brooklyn Ship Will Be Christened New Orleans-Claims N. Y. Has Been Recognized Washington, June 7-Secretary of the Navy Adams, in expressing regret today that a policy of making "warships more representative -of the 48 States" made it impossible to name Brooklyn any of the new cruisers now being built, today said Brooklyn's claims would be considered when it came time to build other new cruisers allowed in the next five years under the terms of the London Naval parley "If possible," he said, "one of these other new warships will be named Eagle Bureau, Colorado Building. Washington, June 7-Despite the requests and petitions of Brooklyn citizens and New York State officials, the Navy Department has refused to give the name of Brooklyn to cruiser 32, plans for which are now being completed preparatory to construction at Brooklyn Navy Yard. New York State has many vessels named after its cities, Secretary of the Navy Adams explained.

He said the name urged by citizens of Brooklyn was denied because other States are less well represented. As a result, cruiser 32 will be known as the New Orleans. Secretary Adams also announced for three other names for warships. Light cruiser 33, building at Quincy, by the Bethlehem Shipbuilding Corporation, will be named for Portland. Light cruiser 34, to De built at the Sound Navy will be called.

Astoria. Light cruiser 36, to be built at the Philadelphia Navy Yard, will be called the Minneapolis. A fifth cruiser, now under construction at Camden, N. by the New York Shipbuilding Company, already has received the name Indianapolis. Plans for the cruisers New Orleans, Astoria and Minneapolis all being worked out at the central drawing room of the Brooklyn Navy Yard.

The keel of the New Orleans will be laid at the Brooklyn yard next September. John E. Ruston, president of the Brooklyn cruiser committee which appealed to Secretary Adams to give the local name to cruiser 32, said today that he "was terribly disappointed" at the decision of Mr. Adams. "The Secretary knows his job best, however, and he has reasons which are broader than said Mr.

Ruston. "There is nothing we can do." Mr. said that he did not know whether there will be. any move to have a future cruiser named Brooklyn, or possibly a new aircraft carrier. "That is another proposition which must be considered in its proper time," he said.
