SECRETARY DANIELS TELLS
WHAT INFORMATION HE HAD
UPON SUBMARINE ATTACKS
Says Conclusive Reports Encounter by American
Expeditionary Force with the U-Boats Had
Reached Navy Department Five Days Before
Statement Issued-Text of Dispatch Subject to
Inspection

"As soon as the news was comnu-
nicated by an officer of the depart
ment I hastened to the war depart
nent, to apprise the secretary of war
of the fact for knew he had felt the
deepest solicitude, as he, too, was in
formed of the attacks. 1t was in no
formal manner. l assure you, that the
sood news was given to Secretary Ba-
ker, and we shook hands in exulta-
ton over the safety of our sailors and
soldiers and, the accomplishment of the
first stage of giving present military
aid to the Allies.
Statement Prepared
At once a statement was prepared
and given out that evening which
knew would intensely crafty all Am
orleans. The message of Rear Admiral
Gleavis announcing the attacks. of
course, had not been given to the pub
lie and consequently it had been spared
anxiety. The statement which | gave
TO. the public conveyed the feeling of
all who had been waiting and hoping
for the reassuring telegram. The facts
were stated not in the very words of
the Gleavis cablegran, for 1t is the
policy in time of war not to employ
the language of a message coming in
code. Otherwise it would be easy for
the enemy to learn the cipher. More
over. the message of the rear admiral
contained the names of the ships.
which for military reasons are not Civ
en- out during war.
Safety important Part
"The important part of the statement
given to the public was that all our SOL
diers and marines and ships had been
conveyed to France in safety. Two OF
the groups arrived without being attacked
and two were unsuccessfully attacked. II
the terms battle and attacked in force
are open to criticism the fact still re-
mains that the rejoicing was warranted.

Washington, July 22-Secrctary
Daniels in a letter sent to the Senate
and made public today. explains at
length the information on which he
based his statement of July s regard
ing submarine attacks on the Amer
ican expeditionary force, and reveals
that in conclusive reports Of the en-
counter had reached the navy de-
partment FIVE days before the state
ment was issued.
The secretary wrote in reply to Sen
ator Tillman, chairman of the naval
committee, who sent a letter of i'll
ouiry after a resolution had been in
troduced in Congress, requesting that
the department submit the text of Rear
Admiral Gleaves' dispatch on the SUP
ject Several senator's have charged
during debate that the secretary
statement was grossly exaggerated,
paraphase by paraphase, by the pub
lie commission. TIL inquiry, however.
was not passed In his letter Secretary
Daniels defends the statement and as
s,1res the naval committee that the
text Of the Gleaves dispatch is SUB
iect TO its inspection, although It OBJ
NiOuSlN cannot DC Ildue fuoiiI 'N~
of the names of vessels and other nil
itarv information it contains.
Late in the afternoon Of July s.
wrote the secretary, the welcome
news came that the last ship OF me
conveys and transports carrying the
first American soldiers and MARINES y
fight in France had reached it's desu-
nation in safety without accident or
injury to men or ships. The navy &C.
partment had known for five days pri-
or to their arrival that two attach'
hv submarines had been made and 70"
can well understand the painful ahA
ietv lest torpedoes should have caused
the loss of some of the brave men
who we're carrying out this hazardous
inrerprise. You may imagine, there
fore the unspeakable relief to me
which t,.e news announcing the arrlN-
al of the last ships brought. This re-
lief was. Of course, shared by all 9TH
ers in the department, who had been
apprehensive every minute since juno
2Sth when Admiral GleaNes in brief
cable had reported that submarines
had made attacks upon two divisions
Of the transports.
