luncheon of October 8, 1910, Ad-
miral Leahy recalled Admiral Rich
ardson telling the President that
the feet in Hawaii was not ready for
war for various reasons, but when
asked whether the President said
anything, Admiral Leahy replied:
II do not remember that the
President made any comment as to
why the fleet was in Pearl Harbor
or how long it was to remain there"
During a long cross examination,
he also said that he did not remem-
Der hearing the President make any
Of the statements quoted by Admiral
Richardson about the unlikelihood
Of this country going to war until
Japan had made mistake. Admiral
Leahy made it clear he could not
say this conversation did not take
place, but only that he had no
recollection of it.
He said he was surprised to learn
that Admiral Richardson thought
the feet was not ready for war.
As the two of them rode away from
the White House Admiral Leahy
expressed the hope that Admiral
Richardson would be able to correct
as many of the difficulties as pos
sible, because II had been telling
the Congress and the people for
some time it tthe fleet was ready
and I was distressed to find it was
not.
Admiral Leahy, who had been
Chief of Naval Operations from
1887 to 1889, told the committee, in
response to questions, that in 1910
he felt war with Japan was "a very
likely contingency"
Testifies on War Thoughts.
He testified that in his close as
sociation with President Roosevelt,
the President never indicated he
would declare war, because that was
the constitutional function Of
another branch of the Government.
The admiral. added, however:
Il feel quite sure that II the Japa-
nese had attacked the Philippines,
which were under our Government,
he would have recommended dec
laration Of war to Congress.
Ever since 194l, the argument oc-
casionally has developed over
whether adequate appropriations
were made by Congress to prepare
defenses against such an attack.
Representative Keefe, Republican,
of Wisconsin, placed in the record
late yesterday a tabulation he aid
had been prepared from official fig
ures. He said it showed the follow
ing total figures, for the years 1884
to 1941:
Total requested by Navy, So, ,434,-
27l ,533; budget estimates submitted
by the President, $7.428, ,240, 100; ap-
preparations made by Congress, ST.
256, 1896 ,276. Mr.. Keefe said Con-
gress made other appropriations
totalling 81 ,029 ,038, liz for the Navy.
Chairman Barkley sought to show
that the Navy and Budget Bureau
figures did not include contract au-
thorizations, which are included in
supply bills by Congress, as distin-
guished from direct appropriations

He made the announcement to a
press conference shortly after the
85-year-old Liberal leader. Them
istokles Sophoulis, was sworn in as
Premier, heading new cabinet
Damaskinos said he would make a
statement to the Greek people later

Sophoulis said in a press confer
ence that Damaskinos was forced by
the British to hold up his resigna-
ton last night and swear in the new
government. He said Hector Mac
Neil, British envoy, called on
Damaskinos and told him that un-
less he helped set up the new gov
ernment, he (MacNeiD would leave
at once for London as mark of
protest.
Earlier it had been announced
that Damaskinos had withdrawn his
resignation so he could swear in the
new government because the out
going cabinet Of Panayotis Kanel-
lopoulis had no constitutional power
to do so.
Damaskinos was apparently de-

banned all public gatherings and
to have confined British troops in
Athens to their barracks.
Sophoulis, ordered on Tuesday
by Damaskinos to form the new
government after the resignation
of Kanellopoulos' cabinet, named
John Sophianopoulos as his for

poulos held the same post in the
Greek cabinet formed under Pre-
mier Petros Voulgaris last April
He resigned the ministry after his
return from the San Francisco
Conference, with a statement de-
manding more representative gov

some cunning to bring it down.
The overall picture in Europe is
that of a Germany virtually slash

will be along the northern coast,
stretching into Denmark. and the
forces defending Berlin will fig

when the Allied pressure against
the capital becomes too strong. The
other will be centered in Hitler's
