The Personnel in 1917
And now let US consider The navy
personnel in 1917. when war was de-
clared. 1t consisted of about $4,000
men. This force was quite inadequate
to man the feet at that time. The
commander in chief Of the Atlantic
fleet had stated to Congress that his
force was short 5000 men. The same
was the case in the Pacific Assistant
Secretary Roosevelt and the General
Board had reported to the Secretary of
the Navy that 10000 additional men
we're needed in 1916 to man the exist
ing fcet-that is, $4,000 men we're re-
CURED for the small fighting navy Of
1916, six years ago. And to clinch the
evidence of the navy's needs the Gen
e1al Board declared in an official re-
port to the Secretary that "ships with
out crews were so many masses Of
steel. useless for purposes of war and
leading only to false sense of ma
tional security" This declaration Of
the General Board should never be for
gotten. 1t is as true to-day as when it
was uttered years ago. 1t accords with

While the use OF the motor car 10
no longer limited TO fair weather
months 1t is during the Spring and
Summer that 1t yields greatest to
the Measure seeker. The months
OF July, August and September are
the great outdoor months and the
IDEAL season for long trips and vaca-
tion tours.
The motorist who would obtain
the greatest amount Of summer
pleasure should start planning In the
spring. Those who have been read.
ing my articles each week. under
the heading Spring Housecleaning,"
should face vacation touring with
eager confidence. Those who have
overlooked these articles are now in
vited to consider the series which
starts today under the heading
"Tips for Summer Trips"
I have spent a very great portion
Of my life In the automobile busi.
ness. In the employ Of many great
motor car factories II has been my
special business to experiment In the
interest of economy for the private
owner. p.

ing for bugs" Those are the lit.
tie irregularities which. although
not OF a serious nature, are defic.
iencies that would cause worry and
expense to owners, especially those
who are careless with their cars.
But II there is any special field to
which I have devoted particular
attention and from which have
derived thek most pleasure II Is In
tSAn Nal fNir
II Is In a long trip that q motor car
gives its greatest amount OF pleas
ure and Notwithstanding the mon.
think a motor car, above all other
things is pleasure car"
The pleasure or q disappointment
derived from long trips is always
in proportion to the attention and
common sense used before the trip
starts and while Il is In progress.
I have driven very close to one mil.
lion miles and in addition to many
long trips in every section Of the
United States, have driven from the
Pacific to the Atlantic, thirteen
times. I believe I have driven. over
ever trans-continental route and
highway and am certain I have gone
places In the mountains and desert
seldom. II ever. crossed by motor
cars.
In all this experience have OBJ
tained the same satisfactory serv.
ice and pleasure oyt of the car as
ever obtained on the smooth boule-
ward from Los Angeles to Ocean
Park or Michigan boulevard In Chi
cago. To this attribute nothing
more than the application Of com.
mon sense while driving and careful
inspection before I start. These are
the two important phases OF tour
ing which ! will discuss In the next
twelve articles.

COMING TO U. S.
To Put Case for the Anglo
Irish Treaty Before Sym
pathizers Here
PIERCE BEASLAI
HEADS DELEGATION
Mission Expects to Stay
About Six Weeks and Will
Speak in Cities

Dublin, March 0 (By the Associated
Press Pierce Beaslai, vigorous sup.
porter of the Anglo Irish treaty, heads
the delegation of advocates Of the
Irish free state who win leave for
the United States on the steamship
Acquitania next Saturday. They are to
put the case for the treaty before
Irish sympathizers in the United
States.
Beaslai viii be accompanied by
James 0'Mara, former Sim Fein agent
in the United States, and by Sean Mac
Cacilte, member of the Dublin cor
poration.
The mission expects to Stay about
six weeks in the United States and
will speak in its principal cities.
Beaslai was director Of army publi-
city during the Irish rebellion and still
holds ranks as commandant general.
0'Mara was director of elections in
the Sim Fein campaign in 1918, and
visited the United States with De
Valera.
The Freeman's journal says that
De Valera supporters are reported to
be sending a rival mission, which also
may possibly sail on the Acquitanis.
1t states that J. j. O'Kelly, former
of education in the Dali cab
met, and Austen Stack, former min
lister for home affairs in the Dali, have
applied for passports to the United
States.
