Sims Attach on Former Secre-
tary of Navy Upheld in Ma
jority Report.
CONTROVERSY AT END
"Self-defense, Non-heIpfuI Policy" at
Outset of War Which Caused
Serious Delay Imputed BY
G. o. p. investigators.

Washington Widely conflicting
lean navy during the early months OF
the war were detailed in Republican
and Democratic reports, made public,
Of the Senate naval committees in
vestigatiOn of controversies between
former Secretary Daniels and Rear
Admiral William S. Sims.
The reports constitute the last chap
ter in the famous Sims-Daniels con-
troversy of May, 1920, caused by Rear
Admiral Sims letter sharply criticiz-
ing the Daniels war administration.
Democratic "Sins" Charged.
Mr.. Daniels, former President Will
son and Rear Admiral W. B. Benson,
former chief of operations, were crit
| icised severely in the Republicans
majority report, which charged many
sins of omission and commission in
naval war direction. These officials
were as stoutly defended and as high
ly praised in the minority Democratic
report. Admiral Sims was commend
ed by the majority and assailed by
the minority.
A "self-defenSive, nOnaggreSsive
and nonhelpful policy" was imputed
to the Democratic administration by
the majority report, which also charg
ed many serious delays in navy opera
lions resulted.
The minority found that uniform
success of our operation amply dem
onstrated the wisdom of the policies
adopted and the plans carried out by
the navy department and instead Of
censure Of criticism, the department,
as we'll as the service, deserves the
hearty commentator of this commits
sion and of the American people"
Two Commissions Proposed.
Senators Hale, Maine; Ball, Della
ware, and Keyes, New Hampshire,
signed the Republican report, and
Senators Pittman, Nevada, and Tram
nell, Florida, the Democratic report.
Each report makes q separate volume
embracing detailed review of testi-
mony from scores of witnesses during
the naval subcommittee inquiry Of
May, 1920.
Two recommendations were made
by the majority-for appointment Of
a professional commission Of naval
officers to study and apply to the
American navy lessons of the World
war, and for a presidential commits
sion, including civilians to study and
recommend reforms in navy organiza-
ton No recommendations were pre-.
sented by the minority.
The investigation resulted from
reading by Admiral Sims during COM
mittee inquiry more than year ago
into his controversy with Mr.. Daniels
over naval awards of distinguished
service decorations of his letter to
Mr. Daniels, written January z, 1920,
charging the Navy department with
numerous delays and derelictions in
directing naval warfare. Many speci-
fic recommendations for future navy
activities as lessons of the war were
made by Admiral Sims who was in
chief command Of naval operations
overseas during the war.

NO BACKING OUT
ON HOTEL GIFT
Elks Deny Printed RumOr That
Hotel Will Not Be Given
to Winners

Officials of the Chippewa Falls Il.
2. o. E. deny absolutely any rumors
that are printed in Madison dispatches
or in the Eau Claire Leader, regarding
the disposition of the Northern Hotel.
The Elks are paying off the indebted
ness on the hotel and will deliver same
in fee simple to the Messrs. VOyer,
Schaller, WOlford and Tencher, who
won it with pool No. 1928. The Chip
pewa lodge 1896, B. 2. 0. E., has no
intentions other than carrying out the
terms of the contract 1t appears 10
be all bosh-this talk about handing
over so much money to the holders OF
the lucky pool and other unauthentlc
statements that some Crazy Ike re-
porter runs in the newspapers. There
is not a shred of truth in any OF these
published reports about the Chippewa
Falls Elks doing this or that. The
Elks are Strengthening out tangled
ends of the Mardi Gras business and
will pay off the Indebtedness, giving a
clear title to Messrs. VOyer, ct al.
No newspaper reports concerning
the disposition of the hotel are to be
given any credence until definite an
nOuncement comes from the Chippewa
Falls Lodge, No. 1926, B. p. o. E.

Local tomatoes Of extremely
fine quality are on the market
for thirty cents a pound today.
They are large and in the best Of
condition for salad serving.
Cantaloupe went up in price in
some of the stores, selling now
two for twenty five cents. The
reason given for the increase is
the reported scarcity of them in
some of the melon districts of CAL
ifornia. In other stores, however,
the smaller ones are still selling
for 10 cents each.
Strawberries have also risen at
some places, due to the season be-
ing over. Berries which sold for
five cents a box last week are
now priced at two for Is cents.
This increase is not general to-
day, but perhaps will be as the
week advances.
Salmon came down in price
this morning from 25 cents a
pound to 20 cents. The quality is
still good and the supply no
smaller than before, if the ship
ment received this morning from
Newport is to be taken as cri-
terion.
Celery ought to be on the mar
ket pretty soon. Some retailers
are refusing to handle it now, be-
cause of its poor quality and ap-
pearance in the beds.

London, July 5.-After having
erected model village of about
fifty houses, the royal air force
will proceed to destroy it this aft
ernoon.
This will be part Of the aerial
pageant, organized by the R. A. F.,
which takes place at Hendon to-
day. Every phase OF war in which
aircraft may take part will be
shown.
In addition to the destruction of
the village, there will be demon
stration showing the formation OF
an artificial cloud screen, how in
cendiary bombs can be dropped on
a fixed object and the destruction
of kite balloon. a
There are also to be flying
Stunts" by famous "aces." This
will be the biggest assemblage of
aeroplanes ever held, and every
one of the "aces" left in the air
force will take part.
Another feature of the day will
be the trip of the airship R-3t
over the Hendon grounds. The
dominion premiers, now meeting
in London to consided empire
questions, have expressed a wish
to take an aerial voyage, and an
effort is being made to take them
up this afternoon.
The R-38, rechristened the TR-
2 since her purchase by the Amer
lean government, will also make a
voyage over the pageant if she can
be made ready in time. In her Will
be the crew which will take her
to America.
The king. and queen have prom
ised to be present, and it is be-
Iieved that the Prince OF Wales
will also attend. With accomno-
dations for at least 100000 spec
tators. it is hoped that the aerial
pageant will in time become as big
a society function as Derby day or
Ascot.
A new feature of the aerial
stunts will be relay race by
aeroplanes. Six or more machines
will start and after making q
flight over a designated coure viii
land. Each pilot will run to the
following machine and hand the
pilot a message. The machine will
then have to start up and get up
into the air-make another circuit
and then go through the same
performance until the message has
been pasesd through half a dozen
hands. The pilot that makes the
last circuit first will, of course
win the race.
This pageant is an integral
and important part of the annual
training of the royal air force
said one of the officials of the air
ministry. "It fulfills the saine
functions as does the royal mill
tary tournament in the case of the
army and navy.
The pageant provides an o.
portunity which it would be diff
ficult to obtain in any other way

tives of the different types OF
squadrons which carry out the
varied work of the royal air force,
such as aerial fighting, bombing
