SECRETARY GARRISON AGREES
WITH CONGRESSMAN GARD
NER ON MANY POINTS.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-Repre.
sentative Gardner, OF Massachusetts,
whose inquiry resolution Is indirectly
responsible for much of the recent
discussion concerning the condition
the army and navy. today said he was
ready to step back into the ranks as
a private" just as soon as the country
was advised concerning the national
defenses and Congress decided to
remedy the most fragrant weaknesses.
Mr.. Gardner appeared to get great
satisfaction from the announcement
made several days ago to the effect
that Secretary Of War Garrison had
assembled a board Of army experts
to report to him on the condition of
the coast defenses and to advise what
Improvements should be made in the
forts which would be expected to pro-
tect the nation from naval attacks.
Garrison to Present Report.
Secretary Garrison. has this report
under consideration and it is under
stood he intends to lay it before the
House committee for its guidance
when he appears as a witness after
the holidays.
Representative Gardner believes
that this report, which was prepared
by the army experts, will be of great
value to Congress and the country
at large, and he is prepared to ac-
ccpt it at is face value as an embodi-
ment Of the army's needs as far as
coast defenscs are concerned.
Mr.. Gardner has asked Secretary
Garrison to have prepared for him q
mass OF figures showing the condt-
ton of various branches Of the army.
He vas advised that his requests
would be considered and that his re-
quest would be. granted in the event
that the department did not decide
that the information was Of a conf
dental nature.
Ono Of the most notable facts in CON
nection with Mr.. Gardner's activities
in the interest of an increase in army
and navy efficiency is the manner in
which Secretary Garrison and Mr..
Gardner have agreed on many points
which they disagreed upon when the
resolution Of inquiry was introduced.
Mr.. Gardeners original communica-
lions to MI. Garrison were of o pep
perry" nature and they were answer
cd with similar replies. Further ac-
uuaintance between the Republican
Congressman and the Democratic
War Secretary has resulted in a gen
eral understanding.
