Mr.. MADDEN ANSWERS
REPRESENTATIVE KITCHIN
Says That House Leader Is Wrong
in Statements About the Size
of the Navy,

Exception was taken today by Repre-
statement recently made by Repre-
sentative kitchin of North Carolina
that the United States Navy is the
equal of any feet except that of Great
Britain. In a statement sent out by
Representative Madden a copy of
is included in which the capacity of
the American fleets in heavy gun fire
is described in technical detail, the
conclusion to be drawn being that the
United States ranks third in the navies
of the world, instead of second Repre-
sentative Madden's statement says
''Of course, the greater part of Secre-
tary Daniels letter will be valuable
principally for the expert, but even the
most casual student of naval questions
must be startled with the statement
that 'dreadnaught strength determines
the power of a navy AS the Secretary's
figures show the United States to be a
very bad third in dreadnaught
strength, the situation is obviously
more serious than people realize. More
over, Secretary Daniels has included
the Michigan and South Carolina in
our list of dreadnaughts, where they
do not belong, according to the ciassi-
fication of our Navy Department and
hitherto of Secretary Daniels himself.
In glancing over the table which the
Secretary submits it is well to re-
States dreadnaughts which were built
, or laid down at the outbreak of the
European war, only ten, including the
South Carolina and the Mich gan, have
yet been actually put in commission.
Two more are practically complete"

U-B0AT TOOK PROVISIONS
OFF AMERICAN VESSEL
Capt. Thompson, In Affidavit, Tells
of His Encounter With an Aus
trian Submarine.

State Department officials are inves-
tigating an affidavit by Capt Thomp-
son of the Standard Oil tank steamer
Petrolite, saying that an Austrian sub
marine December fired upon and
stopped the tanker off Alexandria,
Egypt, and removed supplies.
Capt. Thompsons affidavit declares
that fourteen shots were fred at the
ship, one of which crashed into the
engine room and injured a Danish sea-
man: and that the submarine COM
mander took one of the Petrolites
crew aboard the submersible and ha1d
him a hostage while he obtained
provisions from the steamer
When details of what warning was
given the ship and what her response
to the warning shots was are received,
the case will be taken up further. A
warship has right to take provi-
sions from merchant ship under
certain circumstances. What these
were I'm the present case has not
been cleared up.

prepare themselves for the day when
they will be clothed with all the rights
and privileges of American citizenship.
President Blair of the board of edu-
cation assured the club that the school
authorities will do all within their
power to make the community center
plan a success. The board. he said, is
ready to grant use of the assembly
halls of the schools having them to
citizens associations, and, so far. has
approved every application which was
backed by the proper community spirit
Suggestions by Prof. Ward.
Some interesting congratulations on
the community center idea, which he
largely has helped to develop and which
undoubtedly will be made use of in the
organization of the Park View center,
We're given by Prof. Ward. He declar-
ed that the problem is not one of MAX
ing greater use of the school buildings,
but rather is a problem of human serN-
ice. The centers. he said. should be
made to interest every resident OF
Washington, and should he provided
with paid secretaries. who viii see to 1t
that the business of running them IS
not neglected. In short. the school cen
ter should be a house of the people, he
declared.
Grovesnor Dave and Charles F. Wei
Ter took part in the general discussion
of the problem which followed the
formal addresses. Mr.. Dave gave some
statistics showing the use to which
school buildings are put in other cities,
and Mr.. Weller urged that the commu-
nifty centers he developed in accordance
with the policy of permitting the va
rious classes of citizens to do the
things they want to do.
1t was announced by Walter s Uf-
ford, president of the club, that the or

Lines of Work and Organization
Mapped Out by Speakers Before
Monday Evening Club.

Acting upon suggestions made by
Commissioner Newman and other social
service experts before the Monday
Evening Club last night. the Park View
Citizens Association next month will
undertake to organize an extensive COM
munity center.
John g. McGrath, president of the as
ISOLATION. today stated that Park View
intends to take up an elaborate program
of social, civic and community work,
which may be looked to as a model by
other sections of the city
The movement probably will mean
absorption of the Park View Citizens
Association by the larger body. 1t is
proposed to have residence in the
neighborhood synonymous with MEM
bership in the center, and to provide
healthy diversion and entertainment
for both old and young members of the
community. Headquarters of the cen
ter will be in the new Park View
School, which is now undeO construc-

President McGrath said that the plan
of launching this new civic undertake
lHS has not DeeH decided upon, put IN
the main suggestions made at the Mon
day Evening Club meeting by those re-
garded as authorities on the subject
will be followed. He will be assisted
in the work by Prof. Edward j. Ward,
pioneer in the community center
movement in this country, who recently
has come to Washington to live and is
member of the Park View Associa-
ton.
This body now has about 400 mem
bers and is the largest citizens asso-
citation in the District. Its delibera-
lions are largely confined to questions
affecting the physical development of
Park View.

pect to organize" said Mr.. McGrath.
will have as its prime aim promotion
of the social interests of the people of
Park View. 1t doubtless will be com
posed of number of sections which
will be concerned with advancing the
varied interests of the community. We
expect to make the schoolhouse the
meeting place for both young and old
to arrange diversion for every class of
citizens represented in the community,
