mond, secretary general, saying:
 Now that the league of nations is no longer a provisional organization. but has become established as a go- ing concern, the continued lack of action as to America's course places me personally in a position of pe- culiar embarrassment. In order to
 avoid any confusion or misunder- standing as to my position as under secretary general, it seems best for me to tender my resignation. do this with deep regret because I do not like to appear to be abandoning those with whom 1 have been asSo- ciated for the last few months just at the moment when their responsi bilities and opportunities are becom- ing real. The league is approaching the point where it can begin to carry out the worlds hopes for disarma- ment, arbitration, protection of back ward people, furthering of interna- tional health project and all other humanitarian issues upon which we have been working for six months. l feel sure, however, that you will appreciate the reasons which have led up to my decision and will rec ognize that if as an American I now feel forced to withdraw from official connection with the secretariat, At is not for lack of faith in the league"
 Fosdick is a young lawyer who at tracted national attention during the term of Mayor Gaynor of New York by the manner in which he investi- gated municipal finances. During the war he was chairman of the commis sion on training camp activities, and was appointed an under-secretary of the league by Sir Erie Drummond last May. He represented the league in the sessions of the international la bor conference in Washington last November.
 With Sir Eric and Jean Monet, the French under-secretary general, he was a member of the cabinet of the league. Under their general direc- tion staff of experts selected from many countries has been working on tentative plans for disarmament mandates, protection of minorities, a court of international justice and oth- CT instruments provided by the cove nant.

WOOD MAKES DENIAL

BOSTON, Jan. 19.-Major General Leonard Wood tonight denied that he referred to the American navy as "a floating death trap" in his address at the American Legion meeting yes terday. He said he could not recall the exact words, but dictated the following as the substance of what he said:
 "We want a first class navy always ready. A navy cannot be made in a hurry. First class ships filled with untrained men do not mean a navy but are sometimes a death trap to those in them"
 General Wood arrived from Port. land this evening ard later departed for New York en route to Chicago.
 The press report of his speech Sun day was based on what purported to be a stenographic copy of his re- marks. An examination of the steno- graphic notes shows the general re- ported ss saying:
 'I do not think we want a large regular army. I am very much op- posed to it. We only want large enough army to police the nation in times of peace. We need navy. All that we have now is not navy; it is a floating death trap We want a good navy with highly trained men and good ships. They are a very ac- tive force for peace. We want to build up a good merchant marine. We want this merchant marine for our commerce and for our navy.

days. That investigation was con- tinued today with Admiral Sims con- cluding his testimony. Rear Ad- miral Mayo, commander of the Allan. tic fleet during the war, will be call ed tomorrow.
 The full naval committee met to- day in executive session. Senator Pittman, Democrat, Nevada, sought to have the entire committee conduct the inquiry into Admiral Sims ale cations, but Senator Lodge, Repub- lican, Massachusetts, objected on the ground that the committee was too busy. Senator Pittman then sought to have a special subcommittee ap- pointed, but failed.
 The committee took up telegrams sent Senator Lodge and other mem bers by MT. Ranthom charging I'm. moral conditions in the navy, and it authorized Chairman Lodge to ap- point a subcommittee to make a pre- liminary inquiry.
 MT. Rathom alleged there was di- vision of the naval intelligence creat- ed to use naval seamen to "entrap in nocent men, and that as the result OL l1lC plcOlASCo lCoOllCu lO tliC morale of the navy department is be ing rapidly destroyed" He added that "the entire blame stands at the door of MT. Daniels" and that i've have ample evidence in proof of these assertions"
 Secretary Daniels declined to com ment on MT. Rathom's charges until, he said, he was more familiar with the allegations.
 Assistant Secretary Roosevelt, said by MT. Daniels to be more familiar with the matter, asserted the special board of inquiry appointed by the judge advocate general of the navy about two weeks ago, had full au- thority to investigate methods of na- val intelligence officers . in securing evidence from persons under suspi- cion or moral delinquency and to 1n- quire into all judicial procedure of the navy at Newport.
 While charges of improper methods of obtaining evidence have been in the hands of the navy department two months, he said, the department has withheld action until the cases of several civilians brought to trial upon evidence furnished by the navy, including Rev. Samuel Nealkent were disposed of in federal courts.
