 ADMIRAL LITTLE
 SITS IN BOSTON ntEExH NN EENH.N EAs&
Accused Officer Is Said to Have Refused to Accept Submarines Until De-
 fleets Were Remedied

Boston, November 2.-A conversation in which Rear Admiral William N. Lit tie, retired, refused to accept the bat tertes of submarine K-2 until her builders had agreed to make good any defects that might develop, was de- tscribed at today's session Of the court martial of the rear admiral on charges of neglect and careless methods in con nection with his duties as inspection officer.
 The testimony was given by Lieut.. Warren c. Childs, assistant inspector of machinery at the Fore River ship yards while the, submarine was under construction. He said that Admiral Lit tie called the attention of S. A. Gard her, representative of the Electric Boat company, builders of the submarine, to conditions that might arise from the presence of lead drops in the battery.
 MT. Gardner, Lieutenant Childs said, agreed to stand back of the battery, so far as damage from lead drops was concerned throughout the life of the battery. To this Rear Admiral Little replied. according to the witness, that he must have the company's word for such an agreement and this was se- cured by telephone.
 Lieutenant Childs was not positive that there was such an agreement in writing. but he could 'almost swear he had seen a letter from the company officials in which they agreed to stand by the life of the battery of the K-2, provided they were not obliged to over- haul all the batteries of this type
 Admiral Little declared, according to Lieutenant Childs, that he had no fear that there was anything serious the matter with the battery. Under cross examination lieutenant Childs said the battery was in excellent condition when accepted.
 The remainder of the afternoon was the development of lead drops in the battery which ultimately led to the discontinuance of that make of battery in American submarines.
 Before court adjourned a telegram was received from Secretary of the Navy Daniels upholding the activities of Lieut.. w. B. Woodson, assistant to Lieut. Commander Alfred w. Johnson the judge advocate. The court during the morning had sustained the objeo- ton of the defense to the part taken by Lieutenant Woodson. but reversed its stand upon the receipt of the ex- planation of Secretary Daniels.
