DANIELS URGES SHIP SALE
Many Representatives Asked to
Favor Battleships Bill.
tFrom The Tribune Bureau.l

Washington, June 20.-Secretary OF the
Navy Daniels is urging members OF Con-
gress to support the proposal for the sale
OF the battleships Idaho and Mississippi
TO Greece. The sale is not TO be made 10
Greece direct, but to the Newport News
shipbulding Company, which will furnish
the United States government a modern
Dreadnought in return for the two ves-
sells. Mr. Daniels considers 1t good BUSH
ness to dispose OF the two ships.
Yesterday he explained the situation to
REPRESENTATIVES Padgett, Roberts and
Britten. The first is Democrat. the Sec
ond a Republican and the third Pro-
gressive. Mr.. Daniels said to-day that
they all seemed impressed with the merit
OF the scheme. To-day Mr.. Daniels talked
with Mr.. Mann, OF Illinois the leader Of
the minority, who made objection when
the bill came up in the House the other
night.
There is apparently necessity for speedy
action. Greece needs the two warships
badly. as she is on the verge OF war with
Turkey. but If war should suddenly be
declared this government would find itself
embarrassed, as a neutral In selling two
ships TO one OF the belligerents, even
though the sale were made through a
third party.

BISHOP LAUDS BIBLE
TN SCHOOLS PARADE
Catholic Prelate Hopes Patriotic
March in Trenton Will Be
Yearly Event.
rBy Telegraph TO The Tribune. ]

Trenton, n. j., June 20.-Trenton to-day
saw the largest celebration that this state
has ever experienced for q similar cause.
Upward of fifteen thousand men paraded
70 show their faith in the American nag
and their belief that the Bible should be
read IN the public schools.
Thousands of the matchers carried
copies Of the Bible in their hands, and
there were scores OF floats drawn by chill
dren with the Bible laying open. There
we're many other floats depicting the Tit
tie red schoolhouse," with signs reading
that the public school system must be
protected.
The demonstration was under the aus
pices Of the Mercer County Federation of
Patriotic Societies.
For weeks there had been rumors that
the demonstration was to be anti-Catholic.
The leaders of the demonstration move
ment made an emphatic denial that the
parade was in any way intended as re-
Election upon the Catholics.
As the direct result OF this explanation
the residence of the Rt Rev. James A.
McFaul, bishop OF the Catholic diocese
Of Trenton, was decked with flags In
honor of the marchers and st. Mary s
Cathedral was also draped in the ma
tional colors. To show his feeling about
the situation Bishop McFaul tonight
issued the following statement:
II was much pleased with the demon
stration made by the federated societies
and with their orderly marching. l hope
that they will continue this every year.
so that patriotism may be excited in the
rising generation. The little red school
house and the Bible have nothing to
fear from Catholics.
ut would please me very much II
Protestants, Catholics, Jews and those
Of no religion would appoint a committee
whereby religious instruction could be
impaired in the public schools without
injury to the conscience of any OF our
citizens. We are all Americans and
there is no reason why there should be
any friction.
Flags were displayed on my house
and on the cathedral and the chimes
played America and The Star
Spangled Banner during the procession
1 did this in honor of America and my
TWO uncles, who died as soldiers in the
Civil War. One was a lieutenant in
the Second Regiment Of New York
Volunteers of Artillery"
