s3 DAYS WITHOUT MAIL

Pointing out that commerce between the United States and Argentina amounts to nearly s5o0 100000 annually. Dr. Ricardo Aldao, of the Argentine delegation said that business men in his country recently were 63 days without any mail from their correspondents in the United States be- cause of the lack of steamship service, ! Tt is possible that the high cost of operation of fast steamers would exceed the return obtained from the sale of pas sages al q reasonable price, Dr. AIdao said, but even if this should be found to be the case we believe that it would not be impossible to find a means for over coming this difficulty.
 The mail transportation in l5 days from New York to Buenos Aires and in 1s to 2l days from New York to Rio and Montevideo. respectively would bring So many advantages to commercial interests and travellers that it can be ex- pected that the countries concerned would be ready to compensate for such service in manner sufficiently effec- tive to make it possible.

 Immediate establishment of fast pas senger, mall and parcel post service is not only indispensable for the develop ment of business relations, but also for better acquaintance.
 Dr. A,dao said it took the Areentine delegation four weeks to reach New York. whereas they could have reached Genoa on a palatial steamer in fifteen days.

While charges of improper method ] of obtaining evidence in such case 1 have been in the hands of the navy de

Daniels also declined to discuss the assertions attributed to General Wood saying that if any one wishes to "put him on oath and let him tell what he knows about the navy he might be called before the committes and he can explain his expert knovl- edge"
 Entering a general denial of Admiral Sims charges against the navy depart ment. the naval secretary declared that the matter has gone so far that unless at the Senate investigation the charges are proven to the entire satisfaction of the American people, an inquiry will bs made by naval board"
 s The Secretary emphasized that Ad- niral Sims was not comma nder- in chief of the American naval forces overseas and that throughout the war he was subordinate to Admiral Mayo as com mander of the Atlantic fleet, and to Admiral Benson, chief of naval opera tions. He said Admiral sims duty was 10 make recomme n dations to the de- pertinent and then to obey the orders issued after those recommendations were considered.
 HAD FREQUENT CLASHES
 Mir Daniels indicated that there were frequent clashes between the depart ment and Admiral Sims because de- stroyers were not withdrawn from con voying troopships and assigned to duty in the submarine zone and added that it was the paramount duty of the navy to protect American soldiers going overseas.
 Declaring that when all the facts were laid bare the country would be proud of the navy's record in the war MT Daniels said. Admiral Sims must be required to establish every criticism he has made of the department.
 When the smoke blows away" the Secretary continued. T am confident that the people will see that the naval administration has been efficient"
 Asked whether he contemplated reprimanding Admiral Sims for criti- cism that might be proven baseless. Mr. Daniels said:
 "I have never employed the old-time military method of dealing with critical naval officers. Perhaps I am wrong: perhaps am right. But have an en- during faith that In the end the greaA tcentinses en Page Two,

COACH MORAN TALKS
ABOUT FAMOUS Team

! CnarleS b. Moran, OF Horse Cave
KY, Centre College and the Nationa
League staff of umpires, arrived i,
New York for short visit, bringing
in town an interesting output of foot
ball chatter, writes Grantland Rice il
the New York Tribune. No small col
lege ever took such spectacular
jump beneath the spotlight as Centre
took this last season, so it was only
natural that a few of the more in
innate details should be sought for
"How did you do it ?" was the first
question asked.
''In the first place., said Morgan
Il have been in football for twenty
one years, and l have never had MOI

preached the bunch ] had with me at
Centre when it comes to clean fight
ing, football spirit Of the finest and
highest type. The material itself,
while young, was magnificent, but af-
ter all it was the wonderful spirit of
the men that made it such a team.
They refused to be beaten, and
don't believe any football eleven in
the world could have stopped them
last fall.
81 know" he continued, "the many
rumors that have come up concern
ing the eligibility of my team, and
would like to go into this fully. To
begin, not member of my team had
ever played on any other college
team before nor upon any athletic
club team of any sort. They came to
Centre direct from prep schools and
high schools before they had any
athletic reputation.
cred Roberts, my star fullback
lived at Somerset, KY, only forty-fivo
miles from Centre College. Centre
College was the place his father had
picked for him some time before the
ever played football.
Il have been asked why it was that
McMillin, Weaver, Bell and others
should have come from Fort Worth to
Centre. Robert L. Myers, the athletic
director at Centre, is an old Centre
graduate. He taught chemistry in the
North Fort Worth High School for
seven years, and while there was very
popular with the students. He was an
enthusiastic Centre man, and this
naturally had its effects upon the
young boys in his high school. There
were no inducements of any kind Of
fered to any man.
81 had also coached in Texas for
several years, and in this way was
known to most Of those who came up
from Fort Worth. l have heard all
sorts of charges made against my
team, but none of them is true. In the
first place they were all young and
practically unknown. Ringers are
rarely selected from high school and
prep school boys around Is or 10,
without any football reputation to
speak of. Here is another point
