 From Committee
Senator Accuses Daniels of False Statement Regard
 ing Admiral's Letter
I1ssociated Py.ss Lcdscd Yirs)


 WASHINGTON, May 25.-Secretary Daniels acused the naval Investigating committee today with digging up ancient history and airing the griev- ances and grudges of d;sgruntled naval officers" The accusations came during d long series of questions from Chairman Hale regarding disappear ance in 1914 from the files of the navy department Of a letter from Rear Ad- miral Bradley Fiske on naval pre- paredness.
 Mr. Daniels told the confmittee that he had no objection to proIonglng the hearings by going back as far as 1914 but said he did not see how the mat ters referred to had any bearing on the question of the naval conduct ot the war. Chairman Hale replied that he was seeking to show that Secretary Daniels was warned by his chief tech nical advisers that the American navy was not prepared for war previous to the entry of the United States into the war.
 The chairman virtuS.y charged MT.  Daniels, at another period, with hay ing withheld from the senate a letter from Rear Admiral Austin M. Knight, written in August, 1914. advising the immediate withdrawal of American battleships from Mexican waters and the preparation of the navy for possi- ble eventualities resulting from the world war, then just beginning. To support his contention, Senator Hale read a senate resolution asking for communications from the navy gen eral board regarding war preparation of the navy and reply from MT. Daniels declaring he had no communi- cation bearing on the subject. Ad- miral Knights letter, the chairman said, was in MT. Daniels possession at the time and bore vitally on the sub ject of preparedness.
 Secretary Daniels in reply said he had not considered Admiral Knights letter as an official communication from the general board.
