NOCTURNE
The leperous moon hung over the
town;
A man walked crookedly
through an
Avenue guarded by tall eve
trees,
Their silhouettes sharp and
straight,
Like soldiers
The man stopped before the
bolted door
or white cottage.
He raped softly on the panel :
then waited.
Thrice he repeated the signal;
And there came no r66poneo
The man turned and hurried on:
The black ewes gathered him
into their shadows.

The dangerous conditions of the
navy due to insufficient personnel
was persistently secuted by Daniels.
Admiral Fiske complained that he
had only tweleve battleships In service.
Admiral Fiske said that twelve ships
in the recent war game had less than
forty per cent of the quota OF regu-
lar officers. Mr.. Daniels put one new
battleship into service by the Simple
exDedient 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 battleships. 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withdrawn and sent into reserve in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 tho
Pennsylvania, Oklahoma and Nevada.
Here are eleven battleships which
are now rottenlng from disuse be-
cause the administration has failed to
man them: Louisiana, Virginia,
Georgia, New Jersey, Rhode Island,
Connecticut, Alabama, Maine, Kearv
sarge, Illinois and Kentucky.
Decreases Battle Efficiency.
Admiral Fletcher's evidence is that
today only eighteen battleships
could possibly go to war, and that
to obtain the men to man them IL
would be necessary to strip their es.
sential auxiliaries, thus decreasing
the battle efficiency of the whole eff
fective feet.
Admiral Fiske declared the navy,
as result of negligence in maintain
ing the standard. could not be an
effective fighting force for five years.
And Admiral Fiske, because his ut
terances were not politically pleas

UNDER DANIELS
CAMPAIGN ISSUE

upon the production OF efficient fight
ing units. Mr.. Daniels thus disclosed
his chief source Of pride in his work;
The most thankful day Of my SER
vice as secretary was the day when
the committee decided to increase
the number Of chaplains from TWEEN
ty-four to fifty-two."
His Educational" Program.
One OF the principal aims in his
administration Mr.. Daniels described
in these words: MY great ambition
is to make the nayy>a great univer-
sity. with college extension, high
school extension. and primary ex-
tension, all on board ship. The chief
lack in the navy is a systematic and
proper instruction Of the young men
/ who enlist"
This reform" however, was short
lived. In the words of naval Of
flcer OF high rank. this was too
damned silly TO last" When Mr.
Daniels made the momentous re
form" he abolished the post of aid
for personnel and created an laid for
education That dignitary sat
around the department for six
months trying to find out what an
aid for education is intended to do.
Failing, he pleaded that he be sent
back to sea. Thus the famous expo
riment ended.
In the meantime the secretary had
been forced to grant dispensations
eliminating the compulsory school
during battle practice; then during
coaling; then during days in port
until at length practically no day Of
the year was not covered by dis
pensation.
Mr.. Daniels also made much OF his
abolition of the wine mess aboard
ship. although there were court
martials last year In thirteen cases
of intoxication, exactly the Same
number as in the year before.
Some Navy Defects.
While Mr.. Daniels was INDUCING
in these pastimes he was doing little
or nothing to remove these grave de.
fects OF the navy listed by Admiral
Fletcher:
Shortage OF oficers.
Sortage of men.
Lack OF fast armored ships and
