ADM. SIMS SPEECH
RILES MCCORMICK

WASHINGTON. June 8 Omitted
Press) Sharp criticism OF the
speech by Rear Admiral w. S. Sims
in London last night was carried to
the White House today by Senator
Mccormick. Republican. Of Illinois.
Mccormick brought a press copy
OF the speech TO. Secretary Chris
tian and asked him TO call the Presi-
dents attention to it.
'The speech was disgusting and
un-American," Mccormick said
later. 1T was a gross impropriety
for a naval officer on leave in a for
eign land to make such a speech"
Mccormick objected particularly
to the admirals criticism OF
Americans who favor the cause OF
Irish freedom.
Mccormick also called on Sec
retary OF the Navy DENLY. The
Senator said he expected DENLY to
discipline Sims.

lead was considerably smaller than
in 1919.
Likewise. with other nations grad
ually getting their hands on the new
petroleum fields and American
sources alleged TO be on the decrease
rather than the increase, experts are
beginning to question the wisdom
of the United States furnishing the
world with her product now so
lavishly when later she may find
herself at the mercy of that same
world for her own supply.
Be that as it may. during 1919,
according to Hankow authorities.

 R. c. Redd, superintendent of the road, made the following statement:
 Whoever it was that did this went about his work in a careful fashion. He knew that the point selected for the wreck was just below the top of the Richburg Hill, on a six-degree curve. which would cause the weight of the train to be resting on the right-hand rail, which rail had been loosened. He had brought a wrench to remove the nuts from the connect ing iron, but realized that loosening these nuts would set the block against No. 43 and would have averted the wreck. he drew the spikes and then threw the crowbar down be- hind the hill where 1t was found this morning.
