Where the Responsibility Lies.

In proposing n commission to inves-
tigate the deficiencies Of the army and
navy Representative GARDNER Is doubt
less aware that Congress Is estopped
from denying knowledge Of them. 1t
is not n case Of what Congress does not
know. but Of what Congress has not
done and Is indlsposed to do. Docu-
ment after document full Of informa-
ton and warning has been laid be-
fore Congress or has been available to
members who had only to apply TO the
Committees on Military Affairs. The
army has been neglected more than the
navy. and that Is saying good deal.
Two years ago the exhaustive and au.
thoritative statement Submitted by

on Military Affairs by Secretary STIM-
