FRAUD CHARGE
MADE BY UNION
RAIL ATTORNEY
Says Indiana HarbOr Belt
Line Seeks to Evade
Federal Law.

CHICAGO, Dec. Cove charge the
Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad with
fraud" was the closing declaration of
Frank r. Walsh, attorney for the rail
road unions, at the hearing before the
United States Railway Board today.
The Indiana Harbor Belt line is one of
fourteen roads against which charges
have been preferred by the Federated
Shop Crafts and the Maintenance of Way
Unions alleging that they are deliberately
attempting to evade the provisions of the
transportation act and the orders of the
board concerning wages and working
conditions by contracting out their shop
and repair work. The Durham Car Re
pair Company is involved in the Indiana
Harbor case

ELLIOTT VISITS
OFFICES HE is
SOON NTOOCCUPY
u. S. District Attorney Ap-
pointee Arranges to Take
Up Duties.

Homer Elliott of Martinsville, whose
appointment as United States district at
tOrney to succeed Frederick Van Nuys
was announced yesterday, spent more
than an hour this morning about the
offices he will occupy after Jon. Z, when
Mr.. Van Nuys retires.
According to Mr.. Elliott his appoint
ment came as great surprise to him.
Il knew nothing at all about 1t until
Sunday afternoon, when received a long
distance call from Washington" he said.
There was no time to consider the mat
ter and even now I don't know whether
I have done the right thing in accepting
Athe position
Mr.. Elliott says that for the present at
least he will not move his family TO this
city as he does not wish to take his chit
dren out of school at Martinsville.
COURT ENGAGEMENTS
MAY INTERFERE.
II intend to spend just as much time
as possible in the office here be added,

the position. Unfortunately, however.
have a number of court engagements for
the latter part of this month and the
early part of January which will not
permit me to spend as much time as 1
should like
He said he had no idea at present who
his assistants will be-
Unless Mr.. Elliott can arrange with
Floyd J. Mattice or Samuel Z. Garrison,
assistant district attorney, to remain in
the Office for a few weeks after Jan. Z. he
will find himself seriously Handicapped in
picking up the loose ends and getting
into the swing Of the work. 1t is under
stood that the entire present force has
completed arrangements to retire on
Jan. Z.
VAN NUYs IN
CLEANUP EFFORT.
District Attorney Van Nuys has made
a strenuous effort to clean up all cases
before him so that the district at
torney might not be Handicapped by hav
ing to try cases which had been prepared
by his predecessor in Office. In this effort
he has been unusually successful and it
IS doubtful if ever a district attorney
went out Of Office with fewer unsettled
matters than Mr.. Van Nuys will leave be-
hind him when he retires.
However, there are large number Of
matters under Investigations and cases
which viii require grand jury action
within the near future. Last year q
ngrand jury was in session at this time
Aand worked straight through for several
months. 1t will be necessary to have an
other grand jury soon and the date Of
calling it probably will depend largely
OF just how soon Mr.. Elliott feels he is
in a position to present cases before that
body for consideration.

history will show me no unfricndly
'ritic.
The fiction of allied control OF
the seas, fostered by nonsenstcaI
newspaper yarns, will not go down
with the next generation, which
will read Of the loss of one-half OF
the allied merchant marine through
the submarine warfare.
THE English lost the war at sea
because their naval leaders followed
false gods. They were mentally and
spiritually unprepared. In training
raw troops for warfare the skilled
instructor tries to teach the course OF
conduct which experience-history-
has shown to be the best in the face
of the enemy. If the training has
been thorough, the troops will au-
tomatically conduct themselves In an
effective manner when brought to
the test.
NAVAL WARFARE is
GREATEST PROBLEM.
"The same thing applies to COM
handing officers. Correct training
and habits of thought are even more
necessary in naval warfare than in
warfare on land. An army corps or
even an army may be wiped out,
but it can, perhaps. be replaced in
time to continue the war. A fleet
destroyed cannot be duplicated in
time for anything but the next war.
A war on land is won by concen-
tration of man and gun power over a
critical period of the war, which may
be days, weeks or even months.
"A naval action where the whole
forces Of the contending powers is
involved is won by concentration Of
superior force at a given point, and
five or ten minutes may be as impor-
tant as as many weeks on land.
NOTHING in history gives such quick
action or decides the fate of a nation
SO absolutely.
"The naval commanders training
must be such that he Is prepared to
Toxic the risks necessary to success,
which is another way Of saying that
you can't lick the other fellow with
out getting hurt yourself.
Through a long period of incor-
rect thinking and teaching these
fundamentals were lost sight of. A
school grew up which tauoht that
if you built the right kind Of a ship,
with sufficient speed and long range
guns, you could keep away from the
enemy and sink him without bein~
hit yourself, which taught that the
modern torpedo was a very danger
Gus weapon, and that if you got any
where near a ship with torpedo
tubes you would be sunk, which
taught, and is still teaching naval
officers, everything except the bust
ness Of successful fightino.
Nelson's theory Of battle was to
get so close to the enemy that you
couldn't miss him. This horrifies
the modern school, for they ~oint out
that il you do this the enemy can't
miss you either.
81 have already described the Bat
tie Of Jutland to you by what / have
just said, but the detail of it is inter
esting, because the two portions OF
the British fleet were commanded by
leaders of two schools. Unfortu-
nately for Great Britain the com
mander in chief belong to the "mod-
ern" school.
