STATUS Of NAVY
 BOARD EXPLAINED
Sec. Daniels Wishes Cooperation
 of All Scientists

Washington, Sept. 14.-Secretary Daniels announced today that there was no purpose of adding to the membership of the new naval advis- ory board, but that officials and mem- bers of the board expected to call upon anybody who might be of help in developing the navy through invention. and science. "I hope that we will get the cooperation of every eminent engineer in America" MT. Daniels said.
 He added that several scientists had rot been included in the boards per sonel because the appointments had' rested with the eleven engineering and scientific societies upon which he had called for nomination.
 Trouble With Motors.
 MT. Daniels, outlining some of the first questions to come before the board pointed out that the main trou- ble encountered in operation of air craft and submarines was in their IT. otors. The Germans, he said had evolved a new method of preventing corrosion of guns which, if worked out in the United States, might be worth millions of dollars.
 These questions and hosts of others, like them," the secretary added, twill be brought before tho board, and first considered by com r11ittees of those whose genius bears particularly upon them. Communi- cations conveying ideas will be re- terred to the board. I have a great many such letters now.'
 It was pointed out that while the board would be expected to take the initiative on anything that might re- suit in naval Improvements, yet its work would be purely advisory.

BRYAN MAY BE SENT
 ABROAD TOEND WAR
Decision Will Be Made on Septem-'
 Der Y By Publishers {,

Philadelphia, Sept. 14.-william Jennings Bryan has signified his will lingness to go to Europe and att tempt to bring about peace. .
 Whether or not he will go will be decided at a conference between the publishers of foreign languoge news- papers and himself in Washington on September 17. .-, er
 The announcement of MT. Bryan's decision was contained in letter re- ceived today by the editor of an Ital- |, ian newspaper from Dr. William Forgo of 1923 East Second street, Brooklyn, who publishes the "Forgo Guides' and heads a movement to have MT. Bryan try to stop the war. The announcement was accompanied by an invitation to attend the confer ence.
 After the talk I had with MT. Bryan," writes pr. Forgo, "I am un- der the impression that, provided it~ develops at his meeting with the edi- tors that his going abroad is advis- able, he, himself, will for the love of the cause, not only sacrifice his time but will also pay his own ex- penses."
 This was in answer to a number of the conferees who proposed that a fund be raised from which to pays MT. Bryan a salary and his expenses.
 pr. Forgo's first correspondence with MT. Bryan and some of the ed- itors of foreign language newspapers started on August IF. Letters were not made public, however, until to- day.
 MT. Bryan's proposed trip will be for the purpose of demonstrating to the world the power and influence for good which is exerted by Ameri- can newspapers published in foreign languages.
 The first of the letters which opened the negotiations on August 17 refers to the campaign of adver- paper editors in an effort to stop the war, and then unfolds the present plan, which is to be backed by priv vate citizens"
 No one could institute it better than William Jennings Bryan, who is known all ever the world as champion of everlasting peace," says the letter. "As a private citizen he would help more than he could as part of the government. He has the confidence of the people plus that of the president"
