THE MORMJNGr OKEGO.MAX, SATURDAY. APRIL. 12, 1913. DANIELS SAYS NAVY BE Secretary Would Have Done With Boasting and Under estimating Strength. LESSON DRAWN FROM WAR Speaker Br for Xary League Says Younger Admirals Are Needed to Make Fleet Effective in Time of Emergency. WASHINGTON. April 11. "When the people plead for a greater Navy we will have It and not until then." de KMv.tarr Daniels, in an ad dress at the annual banquet of the Navy League or the vnitea, ciaiea to night. jf we can convince the people of the United States that the Navy Is theirs and that you and I are here as their servants to carry out their wishes ttvMta In Tfinird ta it." s&ld the Secretary. "I will feel that my service here has not been In vain. I ion t warn th. n.nin in fMi that the Navy is anchoreo. somewhere away from them In the far mVdocean or professionalism, but that it Is moored alongside of the American home and for its protection. I want them to know about it, not only Its past glories but its present efficien cy and Its future possibilities." Larger Xavy Indorsed. Referring to the victories of the Navy in the Spanish-American War, he said many thought those victories showed that thia country was not in need of a larger Navy, but that wise men took an opposite view. This pre paredness." he added, "can be had only by rounding out and completing the Navy and making it large enough to be the strong right arm of the Repub lic and to do the work for which the right arm Is intended, not for punish ment, not for injury to others, but for protection of one s self and one'i coun try Let us have done for once and forever with the silly boastings of the stripling that we axe able to lick any nation on earth Let us have done with threats, but let us have done with the under-estimating of our strength." Ynagrr Admirals Wanted. Congress stands in the way of effi cient control of the Navy, according to Colonel Robert M. Thompson, chair man of the executive committee of the league, this afternoon. "Younger Ad mirals." he declared, "also are neces sary to make an American fleet effec tive in time of war. "For some reason." said Colonel Thompson. "Congress has always had a strong prejudice against giving high rank to officers In the Navy. When the Spanish War broke out our entire system of promotion was ignored. Of ficers to command the fleet were se lected even from the Captains list the senior officers belnff Ignored and Con gress persistently refused to provide for the situation which confronts It. "Vndrr the present law our Admirals sre too old when they reach the flag rank and they have had too little ex-j.orl-nce In command to be qualified for handling the fleet in time of war." Air Craft Oaly Saa-lesseatary. According to Captain W. I. Chambers, 1". K. N.. neither the dirigible balloon nor the aeroplane will supplant the modern battleship as a sea-fishtlng unit. If such a thing were probable, he declared. Germany, which has made tue greatest progress In aeronautics generally would not be exerting every nergy to create a great naval strength, lie added, however, that the aeroplane would be of great value to a strong naval force In an auxiliary capacity. Rear-Admiral Thomas O. Selfridge. 1". S- N. retired, advocated radical re forms In the methods of promotion for naval officers, so that there would be younger men of flag rank In active orvl-e. Such a proposed plan to lower retiring ago limits and the selection ft officers for promotion by active naval officers, lie also proposed that the term of enlistment tor sailors be Increased to 10 years, of which three should be active duty on shipboard and seven In their reserves with a month's active duty each year. This, he said, would create a strong naval reserve r-f experienced men.

Tariff a Discrimination. SEATTLE. Wash, April 11. I Spe cial. Suit will be entered against the Ot-W. K. N. before the Interstate Commerce Commission, within a few SHOULD STRONG days, charging discrimination against Seattle and Western Washington ship pers in favor of those of Eastern Ore gon. The petitioners will be the Ta coma Sc Roche Harbor Lime Company and four other Puget Sound concerns. The suit grows out of the new tariff on lime, gypsum and plaster, which went into effect April . under which these commodities may be shipped to Puget Sound. Grays Harbor and nearby British Columbia points at a 15-cent rate. The new tariff further provides that a car may be. for Instance, partly loaded with one kind of freight at Gypsum. Or., hauled a distance of 60 miles to Lime, Or., sidetracked, and the load filled out with an entirely dif ferent kind of freight, the entire haul equaling 00 miles and taking the new through carload rate of 1& centa. Seattle dealers, doing business in Eastern Oregon and intermediate terri tory, are compelled to pay the local rate even on carload lots, which is be tween S00 and 300 per cent higher than the special rate made to Eastern Ore gon shippers, as the new tariff applies only to shipments coming this way. FIGHT OF 15 YEARS GERMAN" GETS CITIZENSHIP PAPERS AT ALB A3." 1". After Most Cmrsual Series of Legal Obstacles, Tangent Man Gets Rights of American. ALBANY, Or, April 11. (Special) Aftei a most unusual series of legal obstacles. Christian Frederic Hlnck, who resides near Tangent, finally se cured a certificate of American citizen ship yesterday. For almost 16 years he has been taking steps looking toward the realization of the goal reached last evening. No objection to his admission as a citizen was ever raised except on purely technical grounds, but owing to circumstances arising largely from his moving from place to place almost every situation which could possibly come up to delay final naturalization develonei in his case. Hlnck was born in Germany In 1860 and emigrated to Canada in 1887 ana to Missouri In 1897. and experienced several delaya there. He arrived In Oregon July 1, 1911, filed his petition in the State Circuit Court here last December and it came up for hearing March SL last. Upon the affidavits of witnesses from Tan gent and depositions from his former home in Missouri. Judge Galloway ad mitted Hlnck to citizenship. But then a new difficulty arose. The Department of Naturalization had in structed County Clerk Marks not to Is sue a certification of citizenship to Hlnck until he surrendered his natur alization paper as a. British subject. He had no British papers, however, as he had filed them with the papers In his homestead proof In the land office at Regina, but, after communication with the chief naturalization examiner at Seattle an affidavit setting forth that fact was accepted in lieu of the British papers and the certificate of American citizenship delivered to Hlnck last evening.
