tate of F. c. Brent, deceased. Watson

ment filed in the clerks office. The

UNITED STATES
FOR WAR TO Be
INVESTIGA 7 { D
President Opposes the Gard
ner Plan, But Says He Is
Willing for Inquiry to Be
Conducted By r e g u1ar
Committees.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Dec. THE prepared
ness of the United States for war
seems destined for an investigation in
| congress. Several bills and resolutions
on the subject were introduced today.
At the capitol an inquiry by con-
gressional committees is regarded as
certain although President Wilson told
Representative Gardner during the day
that he opposed the latter's plan for
an investigation by a national security
commission. The president expressed
the opinion that it would be an unwise
way of handling a question which
might create a very unfavorab1e in
ternational impression"
After the Gardner conference the
president let it be known that he was
entirely in favor of the fullest inquiry
of military conditions by a regular
congressional committee, however.
Senator Lodge introduced a resolution
similar to the Gardner measure in the
house
During his call Mr. Gardner read the
following two questions to the presi-
dent:
There are two ways of defeating
my resolution. 1t can be defeated on
square yea and nay vote or it can
be pigeon holed in the committee on
rules. Which course do you advise?
'fWill you authorize army and navy
officers to testify before the rules
committee on my invitation either with
or without restrictive instructions?
When Mr.. Gardner left the president
he refused to say what answer had
been given to his questions. White
House officials said the formal state
ment given out would be the only COM
ment on the call.
Mr.. Gardner said he was not sur
prised at the presidents position and

railroad tracks covered by the ocean
for two niles and storm lashed waves
sweeping through breaks in the new

Losses estimated at 100000 were
caused by the storm during the night.
All business was suspended. The
First National Bank vaults were flood
ed two feet deep. Waves broke over
Ocean Boulevard, skirting the shore
and washed the earth from under
