Majority and Minority
Agree That Naval
Heads to Blame
DANIELS STAYS silent
Says He Wants to See
Minority Report Be
fore Talking
(By Associated Pressl

Washington, July 19.-Republi-
can majority and democratic minori-
ty members of the senate naval sub
committee which Investigated the
war time scandal among enlisted men
at the Newport, Rhode Island, train
ing station in reports made public
today, agree in condemniiig in severe
terms the methods used by the navy
in detecting those at the station gull
ty of immoral practices.
The only outstanding point of diff
ference in the two reports consists In
the responsibility of former Secretary
Daniels and former Assistant Sec
rotary Roosevelt for the use of naval
enlisted men as participants in the
immoral practices in order to obtain
evidence against offenders.
The majority report signed by
Senator Ball, of Delaware, and kays
of New Hampshire, holds that the
methods used were with the know
ledge of both the secretary and as
sistant secretary, and declares the
latter morally responsible" for the
instructions issued in the matter.
The minority's views presented by
Senator King, of Utah, in the form
of an accompanying statement to the
majority report contends the whole
matter was conducted without the
knowledge of either of the navy de-
partment chiefs.
With respect to the method en-
ployed the minority report said:
"That the methods employed in Sc
curing evidence by some of the en-
listed personnel We're abhorrent and
call for the severest condemnation
no one can deny. The condemnation
of the majority committeeman OF
these methods meets may approval.
Mr.. Roosevelt late in the day gave
out a letter addressed to Chairman
Page, of the senate naval committee
repeating his charges of "bad faith
and deliberate unfairness" against
Chairman Ball of the subcommittee
and asking an open hearing by the
full committee.

Washington, July 19.-President
Harding's move for a disarmament
conference is assuming far greater
magnitude in world affairs than first
indications disclosed. s..
AS the preliminary negotiations
proceed they are revealing all sorts
of unexpected displomatic ramifca-
tons and leading into fields which in
the beginning had seemed far remov-
ed from the purposes of the confer

are thoroughly confident that the
widespread effect of the Presidents
proposal will in the end only prove
an aid in accomplishing the frank
exchange of ideas for which the con-
ference was called.
One of the principal side issues
now occupying the attention of the
American government is the dispo-
lition of extra territorial rights in
exact definition in advance of the sub
jects to be considered by the assem-
bled powers.

Battleship With Bombs

(By Associated PressD

Newport News, Va, July 19.-The
first real test between the aircraft
and the capital ship will come off
the Virginia capes tomorrow with an
effort by army, navy and marine
corps aviators to sink the former
German battleship, Ostfriesland with
bombs ranging in size from $50 to
1000 pounds. Thus far the airmen
have sunk every ship attacked but
because of the very superior armor
protection and vastly greater size
of the OstfriesIand many naval Of
ficers who have watched the test ex-
pressed doubt tonight that the air
attacks would be successful.
The principal purpose of bombing
the ship, it was explained by these
officers, is to study the effect of the
explosion on modern naval construc-
ton. With this in view official board
observers planned to make frequent
trips to the battIeship after she had
been struck. Should the airmen fail
to send the ship down in three phases
of attack the battleship Pennsy!-
vania, flagship of the Atlantic fleet,
will shell her from the range of ten
miles, employing her main batteries
of twelve and fourteen inch guns.

He'd Be Killed If
He Stayed

Miami, July 19.-The Rev

tor of St. Agnes colored Episco-
pal church, who was tarred and
feathered Sunday night board
ed train here this afternoon for
New York. Still defiant, he de- 1.
clared he would not leave the
United States as he was warned
to do by his kidnappers, under
penalty of lynching.
Yesterday Irwin issued a state
ment that he would remain in Miami
and continue in his pulpit. Today he
changed his mind after conference
with Bishop Cameron Mann, presiding
officer of the South Florida district
of the Episcopal church, and city and
county authorities. Irwin was told he
would be given full protection of the
law if he decided to remain in Miami,
Sheriff Allen offering to place two
deputies at his home for day and
night duty, while Chief of Police Dill
Ion said he also would assign two pa
trolmen to guard the clergyman's
house.
Leaves of Own VOlitiOn
II am leaving Miami of my own
volition," Irwin declared, "even
though l have been offered the pro-
lection of local authorities and the
British vice consul. l believe it would
be the best for all concerned that l
leave on account of the intense feel
ing stirred up against me by the re-
ports that had preached social
equality and marriage of the
races, despite the fact that these re-
ports are false. At first / decided to
stay and face the consequences, but
after giving careful consideration to
the matter l decided that even if I
remained further work would be I'M
der a terrible handicap and would
possibly lead to much bitterness and
trouble between the races.
"The city and county authorities
told me plainly that probably would
be killed if l remained. / am going to
New York where l will request my
superiors in the church to give me
an assignment in another section of
this country where l will not be mis-
understood"
Denies Preaching Social Equality
The grand jury investigation of the
incident continued today. Irwin again
appeared ad denied that he had
preached social equality. 1t is I'M
.derstood that the jury secured no
evidence TO bear out the charges
against him.
Bishop Mann issued a statement
tonight in which he fatty denied that
Irwin had preached radical doctrine
and defended the work of the clergy
man among his colored congregation
here.
