DANIELS REPLIES
TO ADMIRAL SIMS

Washington. Secretary Daniels, be.
fore the senate investigating commit
tee Monday, made his long awaited
reply to the criticisms of Rear Ad-
miral Sims on the navy's part in the
war.
The naval secretary let go broad
side, which included charges that Sims
lacked vision, that he belittled the
work of the American navy in con-
trast to the British, coveted British
decorations and aspired to become an
honorary member of the British ad-
miralty He declared that officers
supporting the Sims charges were
largely people with a grievance"
The testimony of other officers, in
possession of. first hand knowledge,
Secretary Daniels testified, should he
accepted by all open,miIded men as
an absolute REPUTATION of virtually all
OF Admiral Sims charges"
Sims, Secretary Daniels told the
committee, did not measure up to ex-
pectations in various Ways, of which
he mentioned six, as follows:
HE lacked vision to see that a great
and new project to bar the subma-
rines from their hunting grounds
should be promptly adopted and car
ried out, no matter what the cost or
how radical the departure from what
ultra-prudept men regarded as imprac-
ticable.
"He seemed to accept the views of
the British admiralty as superior to
anything that would come from Amer
ica."
