CHICAGO. Dec. 2t.-A dispatch to
the Tribune from washington, d. c.,
says Admiral Dewey has taken an
emphatic stand against the hazine
practices which prevail at the naval
academy at Annapolis.
ut Is disgraceful condition of af-
fairs" he said yesterday. 1T calls for
prompt and vigorous remedy The sec
retary of the navy should be empow-
cred to dismiss instantly any boy
caught in the act of hazing and the
culprit should be deprived of all hope
of getting back. He should be dis
missed and excluded forever"
The naval academy is the cradle OF
the navy and there, In the opinion OF
the admiral. should begin the inculca-
tion of the principles of obedience to
law and regula tions which are essential
TO the maintenance of an efficient SER
vice.
"Of course. boys are the same all
over the world; they will be boys
said Admiral Dewey. "I am not op-
posed to fair fighting when circum-
stances are such that 1t is the proper
thing to resort to. We do not want in
our navy men who hesitate to resent an
insult But we do n1t want prize
fighting, and it is unfair and unmanly
for several boys to attack one. 1 feel
sure If the secretary of the navy had
authority to dismiss the boy instant
ly and the boy would never have a
chance of getting back, there would be
no more hazing."
