Secretary Accuses Commit

iBT MORNING JOURNAL. SPECIAL LEASED wtREl
Washington, May 25.-Secretary
Daniels accused the senate naval
investigating committee today with
digging W ancient history" and
airing the grievances and grudges
of disgruntled naval officers" The
accusations came during q long
series of questions from Chairman
Hale regarding disappearance in
1914 from the files of the navy de-
partment of a letter from Rear
Admiral Bradley Fiske on naval
preparedness.
Mr.. Daniels told the committee
that he had no objection to pro-
longing the hearings by going back
as far as 1914 but said he did not
see how the matters referred to
hand any bearing on the question
OF the naval conduct of the war
Chairman Hale replied thai he was
seeking to show that Secretary
Daniels was warned by his chief
technical advisers that the Ameri-
can navy was not prepared for war
previous to the entry of the United
States into the war
The chairman virtually charged
Mr.. Daniels at another point with
having withheld from the senate a
letter from Rear Admiral Austin

advising the immediate withdrawal

Characterizing Cilicia as the Ar

OVER ARMENIA
NebraSkan Takes Issue With
President Wilson; Recog-
nize the Republic and En-
ter Nations League.

,sN HosNiHa JOURNAL seEciAL LEAsEo ~lRs'
Washington, May 25.--William
]. Bryan took flat issue today with
President Wilson on the question
of an American mandate over Ar
menia, declaring in a statement
that ANY mandate is impossible.
The United States, Mr., Bryan
said, could do more toward making
the world safe for democracy,
even for democracy IN Armenia
by recognizing the Armenian re-
public and entering the league OF
nations as the friend of all little
countries"
Any mandate is impossible" Mr..
Rryan's statement said without
other preface,
The one proposed for Armenia
if accepted would involve us in an
enormous expenditure in a time
when war taxation Is still so grieV-
Gus a burden that congress has
difficulty in finding the money
necessary to do justice to the men
who served in the world war.
at would involve us in the poli-
ties of Euorpe and would compel
us to deal with implacable race
hatreds.
1t would involve us in the fierce
commercial rivalry of the big ma
tons.
But, worst of all, it would COM
pei us to surrender vital princl-
Pile of democracy, namely that all
people are capable of self-govern-
ment.
Nearly 100 years ago" con-
tinued Mr.. Bryan, Henry Clay set
forth the American view on this
subject in dealing with aspirations
of South American republics =
Clay declared it to be a reflection
on the Almighty to assume that He
would create people incapable OF
self-goVernment and leave them 10
be the victims of kings and em-
perors.
IAN the colonial exploitation of
helpless peoples is defended on the
theory of their inCapacity for self
government We cannot indorse
this theory. 1t would be injurious
to the Armenians instead of a kind
ness 10 dll II III VI dhlillh AiiNii 80
capable of self government. If 1t
were once admitted, they would
never be permitted to outgrow the
presumption of incapacity because
consent to their independence
would encourage other subject peo-
Piles to ask for independence
christianity does not require us
to abandon our ideas Of govern
ment or to adopt monarchial forms
in rendering aid to suffering peo-
pies. American ideas are entirely
consistent with christianity. We
can recognize the independence of
the Armenian republic and send
as minister to Armenia a man who
has faith in democracy and who
believes that governments should
rest upon consent of the governed.
He can advise with Armenian Off
cials when they desire advice and
help them as a friend. We can be
of much more service to them in
this way than we can by eXer-
cising authority over them. Then
if we will ratify the treaty and en-
ter the league of nations as the
friend of all the little countries
and insist on universal disarma-
ment, we may be able to make the
world safe for democracy-even
for democracy in Armenia"
President Wilson's message ask
ing authority to accept a mandate
over Armenia probably will not be
considered by the house foreign
affairs committee until after the
convention recess.

New York, Oct. 15.-The stock mar
ket maintained n tone Of quiet strength
in practically all the leading issues. the
record of advances ranging from frac-
tions to more than points in many
stocks selling at new high records for
the year. Some issues were established
at new high records.
Among these was Reading second
preferred. which rose more than )
points, TO 63. compared with a previous
high of 117M, under the old method Of
quoting stock at n percentage of par
instead of dollars per share.
This was reasonably based on the be-
lief that the Reading management might
retire the second preferred stock into
half cdmmon and half preferred. as
provided in the reorganization. The
greatest gain was made in Reading first
preferred, which moved up ~ points
