DANIELS GETS
PLEDGE FROM
NATION s PRESS
Offer Support to Assist Navy in
Getting it Upon War Basig
Of $1,000 Men
AUTOMOBILE BEING USED
TO SECURE RECRUITS
(AsSOciated PreSS)

Washington, March 26.-Assur-
ances of the cooperation Of the AM
erican press generally in the effort
to recruit the navy to it's full war
strength OF $1,000 reached Secretary
Daniels today by telegraph and tele-
phone from managing editors in all
parts of the country.
Using Automobiles.
The department is supplementing
its recruiting service with automobile
detachments which are searching
every county for suitable men. The
machines are stopping in every town,
village, and hamlet, and frequently at
individual farm houses in order not
to miss any opportunity to secure
young men, who desire to serve in this
time of emergency.
Increases Strength.
BY executive order President Will
son yesterday directed that the navy
be recruited without delay to full au-
thorized war strength of $1,000.
Taken in connection with emergency
naval construction, already ordered,
this means that the president has ex-
ercised the full limit of his legal
powers as commander-in-chief to pre-
pare the navy for war.
Two Departments.
For the army, the president direct
ed that two new military departments
be created in the Atlantic coast re-
gion. The other means that the task
of organizing whatever army changes
he may authorize may be divided
among six dep commanders
instead of four in the interests OF
speed and efficiency and mobilization.
Protection Of Industries.
The third step was to assume as
national duty the task of protecting
American industries from domestic
disorders in the event of hostilities.
For this purpose, eleven full infantry
regiments, two separate battaliOns
and one separate company of national
guards were called back into the fed
eral service to act as national police
in important districts. Supplement-
ing these troops, a regiment of Penn
sylvania guards and two companies
of Georgia en- route from the border
were ordered retained in the federal
service. The presidents orders were
made known in terse official explana-
tions by the department. No explana-
ton accompanied them except a state
ment that reorganization of the mill
tary department, effective May 1, was
designed to facilitate decentralization
