DANIELS PUTS A GAG
ON NAVAL OFFICERS.
Secretary Refuses to Let Rear Ad-
mirals Fiske Or knight Speak in
chicago.

Officers of the navy hereafter will
not be permitted to talk sin public
The rule by which Secretary of War
Garrison prohibited army officers from
making speeches has been made appli-
cable to navy officers.
This fact became known this week
Secretary Daniels wired John W Scott.
OF the Chicago Commercial Club. that
he would not give Rear Admiral Austin
NJ knight permission to speak before
that organization on January Is.
The Commercial Club had asked
Rear Admiral Bradley A. Fiske TO
speak. but Fiske wired he would not be
able to do so. President Scott then
wired President Wilson as follows:
THE Commercial Club of Chicago
regrets your refusal to permit Rear
Admiral Fiske TO address us on the
evening of January Is. VIII you give
your consent to our inviting Rear Ad-
miral Austin NJ Knight for the same
date? There will be no newspaper
publicity given the matter of the adj
dress. The courtesy of a telegraphic
reply at once is requested"
Secretary Daniels replied:
Il have not heard that Admiral Fiske
had been invited to address the Com
mercial Club until your telegram to
the President was referred tc me- 1t
is my conviction that the expert opin-
ion tie Navy Department having been
given TO the public and Congress and
the President having outlined policy
for navy construction it is for the civil
ians to lead the fight fer enlargement
while naval officers follow the un-
broken policy of not attempting 10 in
fiuence legislation.
Until / became Secretary of the
Navy the reports of the General Board
had been regarded as confidential I
published all of their recommendations
for increases of the navy. The navy's
experts will give their views to naval
affairs committees in Congress and
hearings viii be public. This gives to
Congress and the people the opinions
of experts"

FARM FOR INEBRIATES
TO CARE Fol" R"DRUNKS. "
Commission Appointed by Governor
Submits Report.

The commission appointed by Gov
ernor Goldsborough to look into the
question of establishing a farm for the
treatment of inebriates filed its report
one day this week and suggested that
such a farm of from $50 to 1000 acres
in size be established in some health
full location of the State. easy of ac-
cess from Baltimore by boat or rail or
both, and that it be supplied with an
abundance of wholesome water and
easy TO drain.
1t is suggested that the land be far
enough from penal institutions TO pre-
vent il from being associated in the
public mind with any prison idea nand
that it be for the purpose of treating
non criminal inebriates. charges to be
made when inmates or responsible
relatives are able to pay. An appro-
priation of $4,000 or as much of that
amount as may be necessary for the
purchase of the land is recommended.
The report places drunkards in three
general classes-the accidental, ocea-
sional and habitual drunkard. Anoth
er class, which the report says should
be considered apart, is criminal drunk
ard. Imprisonment of drunkards for
the nonpayment of fines imposed is
held to be unjust to both the prisoner
and the State. 1t is pointed out that
under existing conditions drunkards
are associated in prisons with persons
sent there for criminal offenses.
About 60 per cent. of the men who
make their homes in cheap lodging
houses in the city are classed as in
ebriates, according to the report
"The treatment and care of the
habitual drunkard," says the report,
"can be adequately provided by the
State, which, by assuming such con-
troll, is doing a work of charity, as
clearly duty to the community as
caring for the insane, epileptic, feeble
minded Certainly, the benefits re-
sulting from such care prove its eco
nomic Importance"
