Admiral Fiske complained that he

Admiral Fiske said that tweleve ships
In the recent war game had less than
forty per cent OF the quota of regu-
lar officers. Mr.. Daniels put one new
battleshiD into service by the simple
eXpedient of stripping two others OF
their officers and men and sending
the ships into the inactive list.
The record shows that no fewer
than eight battleshlps, none over ten
years old and theoretically all good
for ten years more service, were
withdrawn and sent into reserve in
order that their combined personnel
might be used for commissioning the

man them: Louisiana, Virginia,

Admiral Fletcher's evidence is that
today only eighteen battleships

to obtain the men to man them 1t
would be necessary to strip their es.

the battle efficiency of the whole eff
