as much to say without saying any

Since the European war and sub
sequent happenings, which made it
appear that the United States might
be forced into the struggle at any
time, Sec'y Daniels has again been
forced into the limelight Congress
man Gardner Of Massachusetts. has
had considerable to do with Mr.. Dan
iels' prominence since the European
war began. The congressman has re-
peatedly charged that the United
States navy is inefficient and unready
for an emergency. Sec'y Daniels has
steadfastly held to the opposite view.
The secretary has unflinchingly de-
Tended his navy and may vet be able
TO convince the American people that
preparations for peace instead OF
preparations for war, is the way to
keep out of such mischief as is being

DANIELS DRAWS
ADMIRATION BY
FEARLESS STAND
Secretary of Navy Wins Place
in LimeIight Through COu-
ageOuS Expression and De-
Tense of His Convictions.

JOsephus Daniels. who will address
the South Bend Press club May 29'
has been lin the news probably
more than any other cabinet officer
in years, since he became secretary
Of the navy under Pres't Wilson.
William Jennings Bryan has given
Sec'y Daniels something of a race
for first page position" but Mr..
Daniels probably has the edge on him
a trihe.
There are many reasons for Sec'y
Daniels newspaper popularity. He
has shown himself to be a thorough
ly determined, fearless leader of the
navy. When he threw John Barley
corn" out Of his department, wave
Of indignation swept the country
among certain classes of people.
Some Of the greatest dailies in the
United States numerically hayed the
secretary. But Uncle Sans sailors
were deprived Of their rum after a
set date, Sec'y Daniels grinned and
bore the abuse, and today it does not
look as if the American navy will
ever be wet" again.
Sec'y Daniels did not go about,
seeking public sentiment on the
proposition. He simply ordered the
stuff off his ships, and then watched
public sentiment show itself. And it
certainly did Religious people Of the
nation met and called the secretary
all kinds of nice things. Resolutions,
endorsing his move. were adopted
everywhere, while folks, who felt diff
fently about the matter were quite
as loud in their condemnation. The
newspapers were filed with cartoons
and editorials, praising, ridiculing and
laughing at him.
Broke All Prpcedpnts
Sec'y Daniels broke all precedents
in his action, and declared for tenn
perance while the United States was
at peace with all the world. But

for years were set afire.
Plans for the first fire were made in
the fire house after an evening during

honor.
