iels, continuing his testimony before
the Naval Affairs Committee, read a,
communication from the General
Board which recommended that the ten
battleships and six battle cruisers au-
thorized in the 1916 program should
be completed as soon as possible and
that no radical changes should be made
in construction of the vessels. Rec
ommendation was made by the Secre-
tary that provision be made in the
1920 appropriation bill for a navy of
100000 men, or only $4,000 less than
are now in the service.
He asserted that unless this num-
Der was authorizes the navy would be
unable to aid materially in bringing
American troops home from Europe,
and in addition would be dangerously
weakened" Mr.. Daniels emphasized
that the Navy Department did not in
tend to ask Congress at this time for
a permanent navy of 100000 men, but
only for temporary force large
enough to take care of the work aris-
ing in the transition period between
war and peace. Between now and the
end of the year, the Secretary said,
the department would have time to
study carefully the situation and ar
rive at definite conclusion as to the
country's needs. The recommended
ton of the General Board regarding
the early completion of the 1915 pro-
gram disclosed the naval experts had
decided against the composite ship
which had been planned to take the
place of the battle ship and battle
cruiser.

began.
Wait in Station All Night.
Hundreds remained in the stations
all night to have vantage point this
morning when the trains pulled in.
Their spirits were buoyed up by the
knowledge of the greetings they soon
were to give, and this morning found
them as fresh as when they took their
places before midnight.
Thousands of persons thronged the
LaSalle street station, jammed the
Union station and filed the Polk
street station to overlooking. Long
lines of police were necessary to keep
the surging thousands back as they
attempted to gain glimpse of sweet
hearts in khaki as they went swinging
by out Of the station. They answered
the cheers Of the men on their arrival
in the train sheds, when the soldiers
swung far out Of windows and
dropped to the ground as the troop
trains came to a stop; they shouted
their joy along the way as the journey
was taken to Grant park. Cheer on

whenever glimpse of the familiar
khaki and the blazing gold cross was
seen.

crowds were at the station. Others
surged about the viaduct entrances to
Grant park and hundreds Of police
also were on duty there to control the
crowds that rapidly became greater
as the morning wore on. Only rela-

admitted to the park.

Vantage places along Michigan

on seeing the greatest military review
In the city's history. Others spent
their time in wandering through the

phere. Thousands were here from
outside the city, many bringing lunch
baskets. 1t was estimated that nearly
million people saw the Prairie divi
sion soldiers march.
