DANIELS MAY ORDER
INQUIRY OF CHARGES
Secretary Wants to Know Who Cir
culated Certain Reports of Huff
Kiesecker Affair.

An investigation of what responsibility
naval officers may have had for the cir
culation OF charges that a fight between
]. Philip Kiesecker. an employe of the
Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry
dock Company, and Lieut. Comdr.
Charles p. Hun. at Newport News, Va.
last month, was the result of attempts
by the company to influence Huff in his
attitude as inspector OF certain work of
the company upon the battleship Texas.
may be undertaken by Secretary Of the
Navy Daniels.
The Secretary yesterday received from
Comdr. f. r. Pollock, who served as
counsel for Hun when the latter was
tried by court-martial for striking Kie-
seeker, a letter stating that he knew of
no facts which directly connect the al
legged assault with Lieut. Comdr. Huns
duties as an inspector on the new battle
ship Texas.
For this reason II is possible that Mr..
Daniels may investigate the matter fur
ther, and seek to ascertain for what rea-
son the charges against the company
were put in circulation.
President A. L. Hopkins and Vice Pres
ident Ferguson, of the company, and
their counsel, came to the Navy Depart
ment yesterday to get a copy of Comdr
Pollocks letter. The company officials
have acted vigorously in the matter, and
have given indications Of an intent to
bring action against those responsible for
the circulation and publication OF the
charges against their firm.

AID OF TRADE BODIES
SOUGHT FOR DISTRICT
Committee to Issue Nationwide APP
peal in Order to Bring Pressure
to Bear on Congress.
TO REACH 100000 MEMBERS

The active aid of boards of trade
and chambers OF commerce all over the
country in the work of the committee of
100 probably will be obtained as the re-
suit OF resolution adopted yesterday by
a srecial committee composed of ID. ].
Callahan. A. Leftwich Sinclair. and Will
lam F. GUIDE, of the Chamber of COM
merce, and Cuno H. Rudolph. William II.
Singleton, and John Joy Edison. Of the
Board OF Trade.
Copies of the report Of the executive
committee of the committee OF 100 will
be sent to the trade bodies with re-
quests for aid. Henry b. F. mcfarland.
chairman Of the committee Of 100. esti-
mated that 100000 members will be
reached through this action. Mr.. Mac
farland said that while no tab Is being
kept on the members OF the committee,
reports from some of them show. that
they have caused the needs of the Dis
trfct to be brought before many Con-
gressmen. who have heretofore paid little
attention to District affairs and that the
constituents OF many have been aroused
and visitors from the States are calling
upon their Cons, sssmea here in the in
terests of the District
1t is the prevalent belief that the only
way to defeat the legislation against the
District is by bringing the facts before
Congress and to this end the committee
Of 100 has sent copies of the executive
committees report to their friends all
over the country asking them to read the
report and then write 20 their Senators
and Representatives urging their support
for the District.
