biIity Of Being Yet Involved.

Recommendation VIII be Made, How
ever, for -Four Battleshlps Annually y
Instead OF Two as Heretofore
More Men Also Needed for the Navy
-Enllstments are Few.

WASHINGTON, Dec 10-That tn,
United States faces a possibility Of be-
coming involved in the European wal
was admitted by Secretary OF the Nav,
Daniels before the house naval com.
mittee today.
But think the president will keeT
US out Of trouble" he added. with
fire all about us there is danger OF
conflagration. Delicate questions con-
tinually are arising"
Daniels told the committee the pres
idents message TO congress meant
America ought not to do more than
heretofore in naval building or act dif.
ferently because OF the war. Daniels
said he hoped TO see the time when
there win be an international agree
ment to reduce the feverish competi'
ton OF shipbullding but thought II
would be a great mistake for the Uni
ted States to stop building on this
hope alone.
Daniels admitted he would recon-
mend. IL funds permitted. four battle.
ships instead OF two as a yearly pro-
gram. He also admitted the scarcity
OF hospital ships but said he felt this
years appropriations should be ap-
piled TO battleships. declaring that
with the program proposed Americas
security would be good.
Daniels also insisted that the navy
was not sufficiently manned. He
pointed out that only 5000 men had
enlisted in the last IS months. He
recommended the creation OF a train
ed reserve force from the ranks OF
former navy men who retired to pri-
vate life at n rate OF from three TO
four thousand annually
He admitted that enlistment stand
ards bar many from the navy but said
he did not think il necessary to have
enough men TO man every ship.
lie also made II plain that $4,000
men could be taken into the service
from the ranks of former members in
ten days in an emergency.

every section of the country.
by 1915 the Lincoln highway will be
in much better shape than 1t Is now" said
Croker, 'and II should not be a difficult
feat to traverse the continent by automo-
bile. Ono thing the run OF the Saxon
car did was to prove that II IL possible
for small car to run from ocean to

Only few years ago the largest and
