ASKS FOR INFORMATION
ABOUT TARGET PRACTICE
Representative Gardner Introduces
Resolution Calling on Secretary
Daniels for Official Data.

Representative Gardner of Massac chu-
setts, In a resolution introduced in the
House today, asks the Secretary of the
Nayv TO furnish official information in
three respects in regard to the target
pra ctice of the navy of the United
States. This measure is introduced. it is
announced, in consequence OF the TACT
that Secretary Daniels in his recent
synopsis of Admiral Fletcher's report
laid stress on the Improvement shown
in elementary target practice, and Its
intention is to point out the dlherence
between elementary and battle prac-
tice.
Summarized, Mr.. Gardner's resolution
asks:
Whether on February 13, last, Ad-
miral Fletcher said that although more
accurate instruments for target prac-
tice had been supplied in late years the
results of the elementary target prac-
tice We're no better than those OF the
last four or five years:
Whether the individual battle target
practice scores for 1914, as published
by Mr.. Gardner. showing forty-eisht
hits out Of $50 shots, were correct, and
Whether the umpires' scores for day
individual battle target practice for
l1s15, as published by MIR. Gardner.
showing ninety-three hits out of s26
Shots were substantially correct.
Explains His Resolution.
In introducing the resolution of in
quiry, Representative Gardner said:
Many people who read Secretary
Daniels synopsis of Admiral Fletcher s
report thought that the admirafs COM
ment on the marked improvement in
the fall elementary target practice
dsproved the battle practice figures
| which 1 have given out. Nothing
could be more absurd. Elementary
target practice is for the qualifica ton
of gun pointers. The range, l believe.
| is about 1000 yards with reduced
| charges In day individual (battle)
practice, of which 1 have been giving e
| the scores, the firing is at unknown
ranges which vary from 1000 to 1900
yards.
If my figures are wrong. all that
Secretary Daniels has to do is to say
so. l have an idea that for years We
have been dreaming as to the per-
centage of hits made by our navy.
Many of our gunnery experts believe
| that our shooting is as good as the
foreigners. Many think otherwise l
have vet to hear the first navy officer
deny the accuracy of my figures except
| in the case of the L. S. S. Michigan
| in the 1915 practice"
