Admiral Sims Sends Letter

Asking That Daniels Be
InterrOgated Further.

Washington, Jan, 29.--Charges
of Rear Admiral William S. Sims
that the navy was not prepared to
enter the war in 1917 are to be in
yestigated by the senate subcom-
mittee already entrusted with in
quiry into the navy's conduct of
the war which has been criticised
by the same officer. Acting on
written suggestions from Admiral
Sims, Chairman Page of the naval
committee asked Secretary Dam
iels today to submit full informa-
ton as to the condition Of the navy
Just preceding the entrance of the
United states into the war.
Admiral SIMS letter to Senator
Page amplified charges he had
made before the subcommittee in
vestigating the naval decorations
controversy. After conference
with Senator Hale, chairman of
the subcommittee, Senator Page
wrote Mr.. Daniels asking that he
transmit a detailed statement
showing the location of American
warships two months and one
month prior to the declaration of
war, ana their location upon the
actual day this country entered the
war In addition Senator Page
asked for the names of the ships
ready for distant service when war
was declared and the names of
those not ready and the reason for
their unpreparedness.
Investigation into the naval
awards controversy was to have
been resumed tomorrow with Sec
retary Daniels testifying before the
subcommittee, but owing to the i'll
ness of Senator Trammell, demo-
crat of Florida. a subcommittee
member, the hearing was postpon-
ed until Tuesday, at which time
the secretary will appear The
wider inquiry into Admiral Sims
charges of unpreparedness and
failure to cooperate fully with the
allied navies will be made by the
later.

Grand Rapids, Mich, Jan. 29--
The second stage in the conSpir-
acy trial of 1873 Michigan republl-
can leaders who campaigned sue
cessfully with United States SEN
ator Truman II. Newberry in the
1918 senatorial campaign, was in
sight when the federal district
court session ended late today. Six
peremptory challenges had been
exercised and the fact that only
ten such challenges remained made
1t certain that at least two of the
twelve men in the jury box would
hold their seats. The advance
guard of the 500 or more witnesses
summoned by the government are
in Grand Rapids and attorneys are
preparing opening statements.
Attorneys for both the govern
ment and the defense felt free to
predict that Fridays sessions would
see the finish of the jury selection
process.
The government used two of it's
six peremptory challenges at the
afternoon session today and the de-
fense four of its ten. 1t will be the
governments turn to challenge
when court opens tomorrow.
Tonight the panel consisted Of
five farmers, four Storekeepers, q

thN MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED WiRel
Washington, Jan. 9.-Benjamin
C. Marsh, representing the Farm
ers National council, opposing the
sale of government-own ships,
in testimony before the senate COM
merce committee today came in for
sharp questioning by committee
members when he declared that he
represented a considerable propor-
tion of farm organizations, which
are not controlled by Wall Street" ;"
Pressed by Senator Jones, re-
publican of Washington, chairman
Of the committee, TO name those
farm organizations in which Wall
street controlled, Marsh said the
National Federation of State Farm
bureaus was one and that lin a
large measure" the National
Grange was another. Senator Nc
Nary, republican,, of Oregon, dur
ing an exchange told March that
."he represented none of the hon
est farmers of Oregon" and de-
manded that he cease using express
sions which might make II appear
so.
"All you do represent is those
non partisan fellows" Senator Nc
Nary told Marsh.
Senator Nelson, ~republican, of
Minnesota, asked Marsh If there
was any alliance between his or
ganization and the Russian soviets
and to which question negative
reply was made.
Senator Fernald, republican, of
Maine, wanted Marsh to say wheth-
er or not farmers generally were
satisfied with government opera
ton of railroads and ships and
Marsh returned promptly that they
were not. Their dissatisfaction,
however, he claimed TO be due to
inefficiency of the present con-
gress.
"We want to defeat bills for the
sale of these ships" he concluded,
"because j. P. Morgan & Company
will buy most of them for Great
Britain and the bolsheviks of Wall
street will get the rest"

ed at Ellis island today as result
of recent notifications of imml-
grafton regulations by the depart

on a deportation warrant may be
enabled to stay in this country, II
Is feared.
Under the modified regulations
aliens arrested on deportation war
rants must be advised immediately
that they have the privilege OF
counsel The practice of years at
Ellis island had been not to notify
IN alien of such a right until the
Inspector conducting his case was
satisfied that the governments IN

modified regulations will enable
lawyer to advise o client not 10

immigration inspectors have an op-
portunity to examine the alien, 1t
is feared.
OF more than 500 men and
women sent to Ellis island as the
result of recent raids on COM
munists eight, have been freed be-
cause there was no proof that they
were communists: 225. most of
whom refused to answer questions
of inspectors, have been released
on bail. and 304 are left at the

In addition about sixty who have
been ordered deported are on the
island, their cases not having been
completed when the Buford sailed.
