SECRETARY DANIELS
ORDERS COURT MARTIAL
Rear Admiral William A. Little,
Retired, to Be Tried; Charg-
ed With Neglect of Duty.

WASHINGTON, oct 15-The trial
by court martial Of Rear Admiral VIII

the 18th. at the Boston Navy Yard
Rear Admirals Fiske, Helm Parks,
Worthington, Cleayes and Dunn, and
Paymaster General Cowie, compose
the court Lieut. Commander Johnson
viii act as Judge Advocate. The trial
was ordered by Secretary Daniels.
Rear Admiral Little is charged with
neglect and careless methods in the
conduct of this duties while acting as
inspector of machinery at the Fore
River Ship Building Company, at
Quincy, Mass, in connection with the
construction of submarine K-2-
"The action of the department in
this case" Secretary Daniels stated
"of ordering a trial by court martial OF
an officer who has retired after at
tanning the highest naval ranks for
charges relating to the duties perform
ed prior TO retirement is somewhat
radical, and can be accounted for only
as evidence of the departments deter
mination that the inspection of ships
under construction for the navy shal
be conducted with the greatest thor
oughness."
Submarine K-2 was accepted Janu
airy 18th, 1914, and troubles in thu
storage batteries have developed
since. Navy officials said that the de
fectiye installation caused short eli
cutting. The boat was contracted b.
the Electric Boat Company, and con
struoted by the Fore River Ship Build
ing Plant.

The Lord looketh from heaven; He

To deliver their souls from death,

Our soul waiteth for the Lord. He is

Generals Honor Artist.

The French painter Hoffbauer, who
abandoned a commission to paint
Richmond war pictures to join the
French army at the. outbreak of the
war, was recently summoned from
the trenches near Scissors to local

he was received respectfully by five
generals. who explained that he was
among the painters selected to make
battle pictures along the front for the
future Elorysof France.

SUBSCRIPTIONS RATES:
WHAT AMERICA ASKS.

Probably his meaning failed to per
coiate thoroughly through the minds
OF the rulers Of the monarchical ma
tions the policies of which have been
bent in the direction of aggrandize-
uent. territorial or otherwise, but II is
certain that President Wilson In one
or his recent addresses summed up the
spirit and the aspirations Of the AmeIA
can people.
Phrased in the finished literary form
for which Woodrow Wilson is famous,
the presidents pronouncement is SO
clear and definite that there is no
reason why anybody should misunder-
stand him. Old world diplomats and
some American statesmen who are in
fluenced by their ideals, seem to be
unable to comprehend that a nation
can be actuated by the fine altruistic
motives which govern individual CON
duct and it is therefore natural for
them to discount such sentimetns as
the president voices from time to time.
However, careful examination of the
course which Wilson has been pursu-
ing as the head OF the nation will show
conclusively that he is putting into
practice the principles which he ad-
vocates
Worthy of being imprinted indelibly
in the mind of every school boy and
girl and being borne in the memory Of
every American citizen, here are the
words used by the president.
"The interesting and inspiring thing
about America is that she asks nothing
for herself except what she has right
to ask for humanity itself. We want
no nations property; we wish to quess
tion no nations honor; we visa to-
stand Sc shly in the way Of the de-
velopment of no nation; we want moth
ing that we cannot get by our own
legitimate enterprise and by the I'M
spiration of our own example; and
standing for these things, II is not pre-
tension on our part to say that we are
privileged to stand for what every ma
ton would wish to stand for and speak
ing for those things which all human
ity must desire
