NOBEL PRIZE FOR Mr.. DANIELS
That Is the Last Suggestion of an Ad-
miring Reader.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: have just read with great sur
prise that the Nobel peace prize COM
mittee finally decided yesterday there
would be no peace prize awarded this
year.
One can readily understand that at
present there is no suitable recipient
abroad Of such an honor, but the COM
mittee is apparently not looking very
far afeld. Surely we have at least
three candidates here on whom 1t
might be most appropriately bestowed.
Our always and altogether peaceful
President could wear its laurels most
gracefully, or il the committee pre-
ferred 70 look still further, behold our
painfully peaceful Secretary of State,
or our more than peaceful Secretary OF
the Navy Never in the history of our
country has peace been as strenuously
exploited, and by such ardent advo-
Gates, and il is, indeed, a most lament
able oversight on the part of the COM
mittee TO ignore their obvious claims
for the great award.

MIR. Whitman's Look Ahead.

Mr. Whitman's speech at the Republican dinner
was admirable. He does not "misinterpret the
peoples message" when he believes that the public
has trusted itself to "the pledges made by our
party and by its candidates" He is equally
accurate in saying that "the party is trial in
this state before the whole nation" The Repub-
icans in the Empire State swept back into power
in fashion to compel the countrys attention.
The political happenings of the next two years in
this state may easily determine the partys future
in the nation, with a state administration of
promise about to begin and constitutional con-
vention to indicate the party's attitude the
great questions of industrial control, political re-
form and social service. 1t is no wonder that
the Governor-elect says solemny that there is no
hope for the future of the party if its perform
ances do not measure up to its promises.
Though long years of control made the Repub-
lcans believe they were ordained to be blessed in
New York State, more recent years have shaken
that notion The Whitman administration will be
Judged on its performances, just as the Glynn ad-
ministration was. The Democrats were turned
out because, speaking fair, they lived foul. They
fostered a period of graft, corruption, waste and
nefficiency They governed the state for what
there was in it for them.
The state is sick of that kind Of hypocrisy,
from any political organization. Mr. Whitman
and his associates will go into Office pledged to
a real reorganization Of the states business for
efficiency and saving, no matter whose pocket is
hit. The state will expect of them full meas
ure of realization of the need for political and
social reform such as the Democrats showed when
they passed the direct primary law and the work
mems compensation law. Mr.. Whitman's mani
fest understanding of this spirit on the part OF
the public speaks eloquently for the Likelihood of
his party's making its performances harmonic
with its promises.

A LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT
The Suggestion of a Reader for the
Drilling of Civil Service EMPLOYEES.

Hon. Woodrow Wilson, President Of
the United States,
Washington, ID. c.
Dear Mr.. President: Your last mes
sage to Congress contained a sugges.
tion in favor of increasing our national
guard. Permit me as a citizen TO sub
NIT for your consideration a method
whereby your idea may be carried out
for the benefit of our nation and with
out in any way tending toward mill
tarism.
We have in the federal government.
as well as in the different state and
large city governments, several hun
dred thousand civil service employees,
both male and female. These employees
derive their livelihood from the diff
ferent governmental departments OF
this country and receive therefor ample
compensation.
Would il not be proper and advan-
tageous to US under the circumst stances
TO have these employees sufficiently
trained in military affairs by in some
way or other requiring all civil service
employees throughout the United States
to join the national guard for a period
up to their fortieth year at least? The
different departments having these peo-
pie in their employ would always be in
touch with them in case of need.
A statute or some other provision
could be enacted or adopted in our
civil service laws making II mandatory
for all future applicants for civil ser
vice positions 20 submit rroof ~ s0ris

Juice and tar water.

Mr.. Daniels's Severest Critic.

Tho testimony of Rear Admiral Bradley A.
RIB h.fors tho House Naval Affairs Committee
Love. the naval Let-Good- Enough-Alone Opt
r,isto NOT a leg 10 stand on It stamps as rubbish
the confident assertions of Secretary Daniels and
the 1--WE have not been negligent protests Oh
President Wilson, Rear Admiral Flske Is inc
Secretary's Aid for Naval Operations and ne
makes hs emphatic dissent from Mr.. Danielss
care-free policies no more of secret than ASSIST
ont Secretary Roosevelt and the members OF the
General Board do.
The admiral's testimony contains the most
sweeping indictment yet brought against our con,
dition of naval appropriateness. lie says thal IL
would take five years to get the fleet into conoi-
ton 70 meet an efficient enemy and that IL woulu
take three years to bring the personnel up 10 the
desired standard. He says, furthermore, that the
navy is deficient in battle cruisers, scout cruisers
destrovers and all other auxiliaries and that 1t Is
behind in gunnery. The greatest shortening OF
all however is the lack of a general stan, Win
sufficient authority to prepare and carry out "a
tional scheme of naval development The IT'D
une has been trying to impress upon Congress tne
need of an inquiry which will show exactly what
our military deficiencies are. We have mad 10
work from the outside With full inside knowl-
edge Admiral Fiske now lays bare condition OF
unpreparedness even worse than our exposures
ad limited at.
1t is within the power Of the administration
leaders in the House to clamp the lid down
on the half-hearted investigation which the
Naval Affairs Committee has been conducting
They may refuse to let other witnesses be heard
But it is now too late to try to pull the wool over
the ewes of the public. The country knows that
the national defence has been neglected and that
if we are to heed the lessons Of the European war
we must set to work at once to make up for recent
negligence.
The most pressing reform, as Admiral Eiske
we'll says is the creation of real general staff,
which will introduce system into the navy and
make each unit and auxiliary do its work in &C
cordance with common plan worked out far in
advance The General Staff should have real pow
err and free hand. It's activities should not be
exposed to interference from bungling layman
like Mr.. Daniels. We must have modern naval
policy if we are to have modern fleet. Expert
knowledge and a realization of the facts must re-
place ignorant assertions that the navy doesn't
need to be modernized because, under the watch,
full care of great naval educator like Mr.. Dan
ies, it is necessarily "all right"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1914-12-19

for the United States knows, as we'll
as the allied powers know, that the re,
sources of Great Britain, France and
Russia are inexhaustible, and the more
they are thrown upon their own re-
sources the greater their resources
will become-they will develop. Where
as Germany has no resources; she IS
now cut off from getting anything. ex-
cept what she has within her borders.
So why not listen to these three Ger
man representatives that we have IN
Washington and refuse to sell sup
plies to any of the belligerents? l
think it would end the war quicker
than anything else. W. CROZlER.

RESPECT FOR THE FLAG
A Case Where a Presentation Banner
Was Scantily Appreciated.
Iditor Of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: If our present form Of govern
ment is TO continue it is essential that
our citizens thoroughly understand and
appreciate American ideals and tradl-
tions, and that our glorious flag is the
visible symbol of a nation conceived
in liberty and dedicated TO the propo-
sition that all men are created equal"
and as such it is TO be loved and
honored. Our association was organ
lied for the purpose of promoting such
patriotic work, and we spend our own
time and money, but our experience
with some of our officials is, to say the
least, disheartening, where we meet
with antagonism instead of encour-
agement.
Let ME cite briefly a case in point.
At the time Of the installation of the
first Bronx County officers, in the
County Court House, no provision had
been made for a flag for said building.
This was brought to our attention, and
we presented the city with a $50 flag.
The day preceding the ceremonies it
was discovered that the halyards on
the flagstaff were broken and unusable.
It being too late 10 get an order
through official channels, and so that
the ceremonies could be carried
through as planned, we ordered hal
yards placed on the staff. After the
ceremonies the bill for the halyards
was presented to the official in charge,
and we were referred TO the Commits
soner of Public Works of The Bronx,
who CURLY informed US that if We de-
sired to present flags we should also
pay for the halyards, which we sub
sequently did From want Of care the
halyards soon parted, and for six
months the flag was missing from this
building. and on independence Day, the
day of all days on which the flag
should fly, this building was without a
flag, although the Commissioner Of
Public Works was the chairman OF The
Bronx Fourth Of July Celebration
Committee. W. +. 0LPP.

STOP THE WAR IN 3 MONTHS
The Only Way II Could Be Done, as a
Critic of Germany Believes.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: May be permitted to say that
II seems to me Messrs. Bartholdt, Lo-
beck and Vollmer protest too much
IL looks as though a guilty German
conscience required very little accus-
ing.
III the government of the United
States wishes TO take a hand in trying
TO stop any further performances of
"the great suicidal adventure" OF Ger
many il could do nothing more effective
than to state quite plainly that no sup
plies of any kind would be sold to Ger
many. OF course, this sounds like a
prejudiced remark, when we know il is
impossible for the United States 20
do il. Nevertheless, it would be the
only way to stop the war in three
months. On the other hand. il would
be very good thing il it would stop
selling supplies 70 the. Allies as we'll.
That would be almost equally effective
in stopping the war. IL would take
nerhans three or four months longer
