HAz|NG
REPORT IS REFUTED
Admiral A. H. Scales Makes
Statement Pertaining to
Naval Academy.

ANNAPOLIS. Md, October 25.-Re-
ports that an excessive number Of
designations Of midshipmen had oc-
Cured. and that they were due to
hazing or drastic discipline at the
Naval Academy. have been met by
Rear Admiral A. H. Scales, superin-
tendent, by a statement of all mat
tiers connected with the institution.
These reports were indicated by nu-
merous letters sent to the authori-
ties of the academy, to public off,
Gals. including members of Congress,
and, in some cases. published In the
newspapers. Information here shows
that they had a wide distribution.
The truth Of the matter. as learned
from official sources. is that there has
been no increase of the usual proper
ton of designations except among the
members of the present third class.
This class entered the Academy dur
ing the summer of 1918. 1t consisted
of $50 members. and was by much the
largest class which had ever entered
the institution. 1t has now lost over
200 members. At the beginning of the
present academic year 1T had rs
m embers. and now 1t has just twenty
less. The three other classes have lost
eleven members in all. nine of whom
were members of the new fourth
class.

Of the government. There is no re-
call upon Congress or on the execu-

questions.
Possibly some compromise may yet
be worked out requiring that while
the President may be vested with
wide powers, he shall not exercise
them without having fully advised the
Senate and House foreign relations or
foreign affairs committees of every
detail in the negotiations or disputes
with foreign powers.

lowed up carefully. In only one case
was q name given, and the midship-
man concerned denied that he had
ever been hazed, and the writer, the
midshipman's father, later withdrew
his statement and declared himself
perfectly satisfied with the way the
academy. authorities had handled the
matter. Still further proof that mid
shipmen are not resigning on account
OF hazing is found in the fact that
such small proportion of those who
leave are members of the fourth class.
1t was also reported widely that
new and irksome system of discipline
had been put into effect and that the
midshipmen, as whole, were kept
by 1t in such state Of nervous ten
sion that they were submitting their
designations by wholesale. Letters to
this effect were received by the acad-
envy authorities and by members Of
Congress and other public officials.
The changes in the system of dis
cipline have been slight. and along
the line of better supervision of the
midshipmen and enforcement of regu-
lations, and they are not in the least
likely to bother any one who Is try
ing to obey regulations. More ener-
getic supervision is required of the
discipline officers and upper class mid
shipmen; there is no substantial
change Of methods. AS a matter of
fact, the number of dement's assigned
for particular offense has been cut
down in every instance. Midshipmen
are also given extra duty that they
may walk off, their dement's.

much cut down, and last week it was
SO small that the departure was hard

Is OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Fight.

Really an extraordinary fight has
developed between the executive and
legislative branches of the govern
ment, with the peace treaty as a back
ground for the contest. There are
many in Congress. for instance. who
believe no action whatsoever affecting
the Army or Navy or the lives of
American citizens in the United States
should be taken without the specific
approval of Congress. But oftentimes
American citizens in foreign countries
need protection-as in Mexico. or as II
happened on the high seas when the
McLemore resolution proposed to warn
Americans off oceangoing vessels
while the German submarine wrought
its havoc. In nine cases out of ten
Congress debates and debates, while
immediate action is needed. Eut on
the other hand, to permit the execu-
tive to use his discretion has resulted
in abuses. European governments
with the parliamentary system of
government have no such dilemma, for
while they lodge much power in their
prime ministers or premiers. they are
directly responsible at all times to their
national legislatures and can be re-
called or turned out of office when
ever their actions do not meet with the
approval Of q majority of their parla-
ments. And in general elections their
parliaments can be changed in person
mel and executives can be vindicat-
ed at the polls at any time. But in

Might Abrogate Thirty Treaties.


Now. it so happens that the. United
States has already signed treaties
with thirty Of the principal nations OF
the globe. with the exception of only
Germany and Japan, requiring the
quiry all questions in dispute that
may arise between this country and
any of the thirty. According to the
provisions of the covenant. previous
treaties become invalid only If they
are inconsistent with the language of
the treaty itself. A nice question for
International lawyers to decide now Is
whether the Senate proposes to abro-
gate the thirty treaties in SO far as
they might apply to the Monroe doc
trine. or whether the Senate means
that the United States will submit a
dispute about the Monroe doctrine to
investigation and inquiry when an in
dividual nation is concerned and Will
deny the same privilege to the col
lective body of nations. For instance.
the senators say they do not want to
give Great Britain the privilege of in
terpreting the Monroe doctrine In the
event of dispute between the United
States and Great britain. But under
the famous Bryan treaties of investi-
CATION Great Britain is given the
right to discuss with the United States
any question whatsoever through a
joint commission established for that
purpose. While many people in the
United States may regard the Bryan
treaties as a sort of joke on the Sem
ate. the British foreign office regards
them as the solemn obligation of the
United States. and would be sure to
invoke the treaties if any question
arose over the Interpretation of the
Monroe doctrine that affected Great
Britain
