But the Treasury Department failed

have grown out of this situation. The

to raise s5,000,0o0 to build hospital

Captain Mangin has been superseded d
by a Embarrassing committee, of which
T. Coleman Du Pont, a special Deputy

Or. John A. Harriss, another special
Deputy Police Commissioner, vice
chairman.
Captain Mangin had been canvassine

He Asserts, Although Ten

Political influences are plav;no TN b;o

Vanderlip. In an address before the
National Republican Club yesterday af-
ternoon the former head of the National
City Bank uttered warning against a
continuance of the present methods, and
declared that the institution would have
to be divorced from politics.
"The Federal Reserve Board WAS or
ganizcd to make impossible the imitation
OF the nations currency" said Mr.. Van
derlip. "1n the light Of the five years
experience We have just been through.
1t ls plain that some things are wrong
with 1t that we're not contemplated when
the Aldrich plan was drafted.
THE management Of the system, un-
der the Aldrich conception, was much
better than 1t has been in actual oper-
alton. The main trouble appears to be
with administration rather than with
the system itself.

which the club members made known

Peril in Resentment at
Suggestions for Safety
Washington Is Quoted
Loss Of Lives and Treas
ure Laid to Apathy Over
Neglect of Preparedness

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 2i.-Admiral
William S. Sims, orator at the Univer-
sity Day exercises Of the University of
pennsylvania to-day to celebrate the
rthday Of George Washington, drew
lessons from the career Of the first
President and criticized the tendency
OF Americans to resent adverse COM
ment upon military unpreparcdncss of
the United States.
The missing element in American
ism," said the admiral, "is that it does
not include adequate solicitude for our
safety. The government, and to a GER
tain extent our people, resent criticism
Of anything American. This is a dan
gerous attitude that has cost US many
thousands Of lives and many millions
in treasure.
Every schoolboy knows Washing
ton injunction that this country
should be continuously prepared for
war. Not once, but many time .
throughout the Revolution. he ex-
planned the principles which should
govern the action of the military a,l-
thor7ties, and pointed out the conse-
9uences of neg!ecting them, but with
little success
Washington's Advice Ignored
1T seems incredible that this advice
should not have been followed then
and that 1t should have been neglected
In his various communications to
the Congress he repeatedly advised thai
we should have adequate and trained
military forces; that if we desire to
svold insult we must be able to repel
~; that If we desire to secure peace
IT must be known that we are at all
times ready for war: that our military
1orces' should be controlled by an eff
mandcr in chief should be allowed to
choose his principal aff1cers; that crit

icisms should be allowed; that effi-
cheney requires that tho forces should
not only be well equipped, we'll edu-
Gated and we'll trained, but we'll paid.
The injunctions Of Washington en-
body the immutable fundamental prin-
clples Of the art of war and their appli-
cation to national security They have
been insisted upon by our political and
military historians, but they have
failed to take hold Of the minds Of
the people"
In European countries. Admiral Sims
said, the national defense is live is
sue.
"rhe actual condition Of their armed
forces Is 30 vitality important" he said,
that any one who can point out de-
feet or suggest an improvement will
earn the gratitude Of his government.
Criticism is recognized as SO vital to
efficiency that it is not only welcome,
but is invited, and is rewarded when
IL proves beneficial.
"ln the United States we not only
neglect to provide for public criticism
OF our officers, but actually forbid it.
= "The consequence Is that the Amer
lean people know less about tho ele-
ments Of warfare and less about the
actual condition Of their military forces
than the people of any Of the other

Samuel Stosser, Of 279 Third Street,
Jersey City, asked the police Of that
city yesterday morning to help him
find his daughter, Clara, twenty-five
years old, who had been missing since
Wednesday. He said she had $40 and
an engagement ring and q wrist watch
given her by her fiance, Bernard Cohen,
254 Barrow Street, and he feared she
might be kidnapped.
During the afternoon the missing
young woman, accompanied By Mr.. Co
hen, called at police headquarters to
say 1t was unnecessary to continue the
search. She was In high spirits; ne
was downcast. The reason became ap-
parent as the young woman explained
her absence. For three years, she said,
Henry E. Strauss, Of Logan, Pa, had
been wooing her by letter and in per-
son. although her parents objected to
his attention because he was not or
thodox.
On Wednesday, she said, she had
learned that Strauss had become an
orthodox Jew, SO she had gone to Phil
/ Iadelphia, where they were married by
