RIVAL REPORTS
 MADE PUBLIC WILSON AND DANIELS BOTH GET SOME BLAME IN SENATE
 REPORTS. SCORE AND LAUD SIMS MANY LIVES LOST BY DELAY WHICH CAUSED WAR TO BE
 PROLONGED.
(western Newspaper Union News Service

Washington, July 1S.-Widely con-
 flicting views regarding direction of | the American navy during the early | months of the war were detailed in Republican and Democratic reports | made public of the Senate naval com mittee'S investigation of controversies between former Secretary Daniels and
 Rear Admiral William Sims. The re-
 ports constitute the last chapter in the famous Sims-Daniels controversy of May, 1920, precipitated by Rear Ad- miral Sims letter, sharply criticising
 the Daniels war administration. Mir. Daniels, former President Will son and Rear Admiral w. B. Benson, former chief of operations, were scored severely in the majority Repub- lican report and highly praised in the minority Democratic report. Admiral Sims was commended by the majority and assailed by the minority.
 Senators Hale, Maine; Ball, Della ware, and Reyes, New Hampshire, signed the majority report, and Sen ators Pittman, Nevada, and Trammell, Florida, the minority.
 The investigation dates from year ago, when during a committee inquiry of the admiraFS controversy with MT. Daniels over awards of distinguished service decorations, a letter the former wrote to MT. Daniels, charging the Navy Department with numerous dere- HctiOnS was read into the record.
 Admiral Sims was in chief com mand of naval operations overseas during the war.
 Admiral Sims principal charge that administrative delays were estimated to have cost 5OO,OOO lives and $15,OOO,- 900 unnecessarily, was sustained as follows by the majority:
 'The conclusion seems inevitable that had these delays in naval opera tions not occurred the American ex- peditionary forces might have brought about an allied victory earlier than they actually did,"
 The minority report described the | charge as "monstrous and without foundation" and added: '"The evi- | dence shows beyond a shadow of | doubt that the army was transported | abroad as fast as it was ready; that | the submarines did not sink our trans | ports and that munitions and supplies l for our army crossed the water in | ample volume at all times"

FARMERS WIFE

 '1 had acute indigestion" she said, and no one knows how 1 suffered. l had crampfng pains in my stomach that were almost unbearable, and l suffered no end of distress from gas and bloating. Why, I was actually starving to keep from being in such awful misery, and I lost thirteen pounds in weight. Sometimes I won der how I lived through it all, and I just thought there was no hope for me. l was restless night and day and was easily irritated, and some nights I slept so little 1t didn't seem that l had been to bed at all.
 "But now I feel as strong and well as if I had never been sick a day in my life, and I just know Tanlac is the best medicine in the world. l haven't a touch of indigestion now, and every time I sit down to the table I can't help but feel thankful to Tanlac. I have a wonderful appetite and have gained back all my lost weight and six pounds besides. I am simply overjoyed to be feeling so well, and I just praise Tanlac everywhere I go.''

FROM THE LAND OF WONDERS
Shasta County, California, Comes Proudly to the Front With
 Eggs That Dance.

Shasta county, California, is the land of wonders. The latest is the dancinig egg, relates London Tit-Bits.
 It is laid by an as yet undetermined insect on the leaves of oak trees. Masses of these eggs cling to the under side of the leaf, and as they advance toward maturity they drop to the ground and dance about.
 By holding an oak twig containing any number of eggs to ones ear a cracking sound may be heard, like the splitting of electric sparks. The shell contains a tiny grub, working for re- lease.
 In many towns collections of the eggs are on exhibition. When laid on O table these eggs bound about and spring into the air, sometimes to height of 16 inches. They are par ticularly active in the early morning.
 This latest insect novelty takes rank with the sulphur bug, which is at home in the red-hot roaster piles.

association say all construction plans
for next year will be held up and en-
ployees will be out of jobs at the end
of the present building season. In ad-
dition it is declared that when the
present agreement with the workers
expires at the end of the year the
men will be forced to take So and So
cuts if they do not submit now to the
81 reduction.

$3.50 and $3.50 respectively.

or lock-outs, expressing confidence that
some agreement will be reached ami
cably before the end of the year.
Mr.. Crowley further declared that

employers desired to reduce wages they
n,pst notify the employees five months
ia advance of the expiration of the
agreement. If no such notice is given,
he said. old wages are continued auto
matically.

ton, denied that there was any such
provision in the 1921 contract, although

had been asked to accept the decrease
by the various groups of contractors
in the association, and that nothing

announced. will meet on Monday and
