House Members to Ask
:. Gen. Wood About Navy

MAJ. Gen. Leonard Wood probably
will be called before the House Naval
Affairs Committee to amplify his as
sertion in Boston Sunday night that
the navy ''is a floating death trap"
This was indicated by members OF
The committee after Gen. Wood s
speech had been discussed at length.
Although Chairman Butler and the
committeemen declined to comment on
the generals criticisms, it was ap-
parent. they had aroused serious
concern. An effort was made to get
n touch with Wood, but he was

the committee would call him. Chair
nan Butler said:

Members of the committee professed

Gen. Wood meant by saying OF the
navy that all we have now Is a
floating death trap" II he refeTed to
ne ships as death traps" the COM
uiittee will take serious issue with
him. for 1t Is conceded, they assert.
that the American war vessels are
the finest in the world. II he meant
that the ships are inadequateIy and
fnefficiently manned. the COMMITTEES is
ready to agree with him.
kOn the question of a divided fleet,
members Of the committee say Gen.
Wood evidently has been talking with
naval officers opposed to having one
feet in the Atlantic and another in
the Pacific. These officers contend
that in the event Of a successful at
tack on the Panama Canal, the fleets
oould not get together on the side
where the fighting was gong on.
Secretary Daniels and the General
Board see less danger II half o; the
ships were caught on the wrong side
than II the entire navy should be thus
trapped.
The committees view Is that the
canaI should be safesuarded against
