DANIELS is FIRM
FOR BIG NAVY
Says United States Must Provide
Proper Share of World
Police.
NO DESIGNS ON NATIONS
Secretary Discloses Strength OF Worlds
NaVies, Showing America Second
With 80 Battleships Heading a
Fleet of 1,217 Ships.

Washington, Jan. 1.-Secretary Of
the Navy Daniels before the house
naval committee, declared the United
States, having pledged its support to
small nations, should build a navy sec
ond to none in the world if an interna-
tional tribunal with power to enforce
its rulings failed to become a reality.
"a large navy is not needed because
the United States has designs upon
other nations territory" Secretary
Daniels said, because this country
has no such designs. But, since we
have pledged our support to small ma
tons unable to protect themselves, we
must be strong enough to make our
pledges good"
brought out clearly two points: L.
That national differences and greed
for power are unsafe and must be
eliminated. 2. That an international
tribunal with power to enforce its rul-
ings is essential.
Representative Kelly of Michigan
asked the secretary when he first came
to the conclusion that America should
have a navy second to none in the
world.
II came to that conclusion when the
war broke out" was the reply. "Un-
til that time 1 believed that the work
ing people who suffer most from wars
and bankers and business men who
pay for wars, should be considered be-
fore the militarists. But when real
| lied that the militarists of another ma
tion might plunge the world into wal
at their will, 1 realized that l was
wrong. Unless we have a navy which
can lick any other navy in the world
we may as well have none"
The secretary submitted to the com
mittee a report showing the present
comparative strengths of the large nav
les of the world Great Britain ha:

which Nikolai Lenine, the bolshevik
premier, was directing operations in
the region of Perm. Lenine himself
escaped, but several members OF his
party were taken prisoners.
The exploit of General Gaida in cap
turing Perm parallels his success in
the campaign of last summer. His su-
periors opposed his plan Of attack
against Perm, and he carried out the
operation at the risk of removal from
his command. The bulk of his force
was made up of Siberian troops.
In addition to the 81 900 prisoners re.
ported, General Gaida captured 5000
railway cars, 120 field guns, 1000 ma
chine guns, 80 automobiles, an entire
wagon transport, several armorec
trains and Several thousand horses.
His movement was a complete sur
prise to the bolsheviki, as proved bi
the fact that he captured several prom
