SIMS SAYS DANIELS
OPPOSED CONYOYS
Takes Issue With Ex Secre-
tary's Claim He and Wilson
Favored System.

NEWPORT, r. l.. Oct. 26.-Rear Ad-
niraI William r. Sims. retired. tonight
took sharp issue with statement made
last night by Josephus Daniels. former
Secretary of the Navy. regarding the
adoption of the convoy system during
the war. In a note given to the Asso-
ciated Press here. Admiral Sims. after
asserting that the Daniels statement as
1t affected the adoption OF the convoy
system was false in all essential re-
spects," said:
"He stated that the British Admiralty
was opposed to the convoy system until
some time after we entered the war. that
President Wilson and he were at all
times In favor of 1t. that he informed
me of this when he gave me my in
structions, that / presented these views
to Admiral Jellicoe and that shortly
thereafter the convoy system was put in
operation.
"The official documents presented be-
fore the committee OF the Senate that
investigated the departments conduct OF
the war show that throughout the first
three months OF the war the Navy De-
partment resisted the adoption of the
convoy.
"As late as June IS. 1917, the Navy
Department announced In cablegram
TO me: Regarding conveys I consider
that American vessels with armed guards
on board are safer when sailing inde-
pendently' and in cable OF July g.

that they should sail In company or

REJECTS U. S. PLEA
TO DROP MORSE CASE
Court Won't Allow With.
drawal Of Conspiracy and
Fraud Charges.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. Oct 26.--Attempts
by counsel sor the Government to with
draw all charges of conspiracy and
fraud laid against Charles w. Morse.
New York shipbuilder and his various
companies in the case now in progress
here failed o,day when Judge Waddill.
in the Federal Court for the Eastern
Virginia district, refused to entertain
the motion. The court upheld attorneys
tor the companies in their contention
that II would be most unfair to amend
the bill so drastically after the charges
had been so widely published.
The Governments motion was SUBJ
mitted by former Senator Edgar T..
Bracket, special assistant to Attorney
General Daugherty.
Earlier in the day Senator Bracket
had moved to eliminate all reference TO
the Groton Iron Works, which was
named with the Virginia Shipbuilding
Corporation in the Governments suit to
recover about slS,0o0.00o advanced to
cover construction expenses. Objection
was made on the ground that the
same charges of fraud" lay against
the Groton company as against the
other defendants.
JuQSc w auulll uenleu the lllOllOll sS
to the Groton company and that which
would have eliminated all reference to
conspiracy and fraud wherever appear
ing.
An exception was taken on the part
of the Government indicating that, in
case OF appeal, the refusal of the court
to permit withdrawal OF the charges
would be one of the points carried to
the higher courts.
Counsel for the Morse companies de-
clared tonight the action of the Cow
ernment, in effect, was a confession o!
error" and indicated complete col
lapse of the case. They looked FOR
early issuance Of a decree from the
local court bringing this phase of the
case to a formal conclusion There
would remain the counter suits-:hat
of the Government age inst the Virginia
comp"ny for s1S.000,000 and Of the
Virginia company against the Govern
ment for s6.000.000 alleged to be still
due on the ships constructed under The
emergency fleet contract
A separate suit is pending in Connec-
ticut wherein the Groton Iron Works
seeks TO collect s13.00o,Oo0 from the
Government as balance due for con-
struction of a number OF ships.

WHEELER COMBATS WET

Special Dispatch to THE NEW York HERALD

MashinetOn. ID. O.. Oct. 90.

New York Herald Bureau.
Washington. ID. C., Oct. 20.
Wayne 3. Wheeler. general counsel
OF the Anti-Saloon League. to-day de-
clared the figures OF the Association
Against the Prohibition Amendment on
arrests for drunkenness during 1921
were far afield." These figures showed
an increase of 36.2t per cent. in 1921
over 1920.
"The only fair way to compare the
wet and dry regime is 10 take the last
wet year or series OF wet years and
compare them with the last dry year or
the average OF a series of dry years.
Mr.. Wheeler declared. when this Is
done it clearly shows a marked de-
crease OF arrests for drunkenness under
prohibition. In wet years only drunks
who become a public nuisance are ar
rested in most cities.
Under prohibition hostile officers ar
rest on the slightest evidence of intoxi-
cation to discredit prohibition. Friendly
officers arrest those who appear intoxi-
Gated in order to get from them evil
dence against the seller. This means
that but comparatively few of the real
drunks are arrested under license, while
practically all of the even partially In
toxicated are arrested under prohibition
Even then truthful statistics show that
prohibition at its worst is better than
license at It's best when we compare ar
rests for drunkenness"

The report for which this Government
was waiting befors making answer to
the representations OF the British Eni-
bassy amounts to clear cut victory Tor

HOUSTON. Texas. Dec. 2.-The leg
islative program of the state depart
ment Of education which will be sup
ported before the next state legislature
was outlined by $. NJ. n. Marrs, state
superintendent elect. in an address be-
for the annual convention of the Texas
State Teachers association here today.
Chief among the propositions favored
by Superintendent Marrs is the enact
ment Of legislation for the reorganiza-
tion and unification of the school sys-
TEN of the state. so as to place each
local school district having fewer than
500 scholastics under the direct super
vision of the county superintendent and
the county school board.
In support of this plan for reorgani
zation of the local school units. Marrs
called attention to the fact that inde-
pendent school districts having fewer
than 500 scholastics are now dependent
only in making contracts and in the
manner of assessing, levying and collec-
ting taxes. and in the selection of de-
pository Under present laws. the coun-
ty superintendent still has control of
such districts in approving the census.
enforcement of compulsory attendance
laws. registration of certificates, con-
ducting teachers institutes, approving
reports of superintendents and other
school officials. and assisting in apply
ing for rural aid.
Superintendent Marrs also made a
strong plea for the calling of con.
stitutional convention. He urged the
retirement of three percent state bonds
now owned by the permanent school
fund and reinvestment of such funds by
the small rural districts.
The following legislative program
was outlined by the new state superin-
tendent:
1-Calling constitutional conven-
ton.
Make an emergency appropriation
from the general revenue fund 10 in
crease the per capita apportionment to
Sl4.
