Admiral Wilson
In Defense of
American Navy
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
Washington. April s.--The vessels
on the active list Of the navy were
never better prepared for war than
when tho United States joined the al
lies and the navy department had
full and complete plans" to combat
a German offensive against tha Unit
ed states admiral H. d. Wilson to-
day told the senate committee in
vestigating the navy's conduct of the
war.
Replying to criticism Of the letters
of Admiral Sims to Secretary Dani-
els, Admiral Wilson asserted that
from the moment war was declared
the entire navy entered into the
prosecution OF the war with the
greatest energy. and it's accomplish
ments deserve the commendation of
the senate"
Admiral Wilson, now commander
in-chief OF the Atlantic fleet, COM
manded the patrol forces that first
protected the coasts Of the United
States and later operated at Brest,
France, and co-operated with the al
lies In the war zone land hunted
U-boats.
Within four days after this coun-
try entered the war representatives
OF the allies were in conference with
Secretary Daniels and navy officers
outlining the means by which most
effective resistance could be rendered
the country. Admiral Wilson said.
So far as he knew. Admiral Will
son declared every suggestion put
forward by the allies was agreed to
and efficiently carried out. The fact
tnat the greater part OF the American
navy was transported over 1000 miles
of water without life being lost
testified to the proof of this asser-
ton.
Mistakes of the navy "were so rel
atlveiy unimportant that they were
hardly worth considering" the wit
ness said.
mo nation On the eve of war has
had force of warships more nearly
prepared for war than the force to
which was attached and which

fed
Il feel sure that had this force en-
gased an enemy on It's cruise north
in 1917 the victory would have been
ours. Morale in the service was high
at that time" the officer said. land
the active fleet was prepared for any
emergency"

Washington. April S.-Flat rejec-
ton of the plan proposed by Presi-
dent Wilson's second Industrial con-
ference for settling labor unrest was
urged before the senate labor COM
mittee by w. Jett Lauck, secretary
OF the old war labor board.
Mr.. Lauck was the first witness at
hearings on the conference plan pre-
liminary to drafting legislation to
carry into effect such of it as the
committee may deem advisable.
Mr.. Lauck told the committees that
labor unrest thruout the world was
due to the fact that Tabor was de-
Elanding in all the countries Of the
world greater share in government,
and shorter hours and higher wages"
This. he said, was due to new
conception of democracy" requiring
that the principles Of political
democracy be taken into the indus
trial field. The conference report, he
said. did not meet this.
