THE SIMS.DANIELS
INQUIRY

lOIlA OloWh wv ihIuhy INV
Admiral Sims charges against
the management Of the Navy
Department by Secetary Daniels,
the country learns from a pom
derous report of APPS pages the
findings of the Republican men,
bers and the conclusion of the
two Democratic members of the
committee. In the interval there
has been a change of Administra-
ton at Washington, and such
questions as peace with Germany,
relations with Japan, disarma-
ment, tax reduction and tariff
legislation are holding the
public attention. Active interest
in the long deferred reports of
the Senate subcommittee will be
confined to partisans of Admiral
Sims and Secretary Daniels,
Chairman Hale's majority report
approves of the AdmiraPs course,
finds him right in all things, and
not only condemns the Secretary
but asperses President Wilson.
When the reader comes upon
the following passage he recoils
with disgust:
The conclusion seemed unavoid-
able that upon our entering the
war and for many months there
after the primary motive of the
Administration was not to do
everything possible to help win
the war with the Allies and
against the Germans. Rather
does the predominant purpose OF
the Administration seem to have
been to look to the future of the
United States apart from the
Allies in case the latter might be
defeated, or in case a " peace
without victory" might be made.
And there is more of the same
indecent sort, a descent to the
lowest depth of partisan rancor.
Mr.. Daniels had his defects no
doubt as Secretary of the Navy,
and a case of incomplete prepar-
edness for war may be made out
against him on the testimony
given at the inquiry, but neither
the Secretary nor the President
was disloyal in thought or deed
to the Allies, or half.hearted in
prosecuting the war. The worst
thing that can be said in criticism
of Secretary Daniels is that he did
not realize the Importance of
prepare tions to combat the SUBJ
marine menace, and that he was
slow in responding to the de-
mands of Admiral Sims for
destroyers and "chasers. s" The
fleet stood first in his regard,
and it was in a high state of eff
ficiency when the United States
entered the war, although not
every ship was ready to sail for
the war zone.
If the Department had hurried
across the Atlantic in
the summer of 1917, there would
have been no inquiry into the
Secretary's management of the
navy before and during the war.
After hostilities were declared
against Germany Mr. Daniels put
into the hands of his pro-
fessional advisers, and in some
respects their counsel may not
have been sagacious. There is
no doubt that he and they should
have been more heedful of Ad-
miral Sims acquisitions and
views, for he was on the spot.
Even the majority report admits
that the American operati ions
vent smoothly and well at ter a
ate start. The minority report is
,pen to criticism because it is too
.olerant of the backward con-
lition of the navy on the eve of
var and sees no spot on the sun.

Drastic Price Reductions
On Mems Wear

BlaclSburn's policy of satisfaction or money
back will apply in this sale as usual, and the
same service will be given as if the goods were
scld at their regular prices. The reductions list
&c re may not seem as radical as some, but
tlley are below the market for quality goods.
Our regular prices were as low as could be ex-
pected for regular cash selling. For this reason
cur sale prices may not look so attractive as
some But Blackburn challenges comparison
and investigation and if you can beat these
prices quality considered, money back.
