WASHINGTON. May 27. Superiority
of the 'enemy1 in units representing
fast and heavily armed battle cruisers,
coupled with weather conditions favor
able for an attack, brought about the
failure of Admiral Fletcher's defense
of the Atlantic seaboard In the nuval
war same which closed Wednesday,
with Itear-Admiral Beatty's invaders in
position to establish a base in Chesa
peake Bay.
The story of the game as told In re
ports of the commanding officers to
the Navy Department today revealed
that Admiral Beatty, with a theoreti
cally stronger force, engaged the main
body of the defending fleet last Thurs
day and destroyed about half of Ad
miral Fletcher's scouts while easily
eluding the supporting dreadnaughts.
Iefruler la Handicapped.
Then, when Admiral Fletcher drew
off to guard against a movement
against New England or New York, the
"enemy" swept southward prepared to
establish a base of operations by land
ing an expedition from his transports,
and at the same time faced northward
with sufficient force to deal with any
squadrons the defenders might send
against him.
Admiral Fletcher's defensive cam
paign was described as a good one, but
he was handicapped not only by the
weather and lack of speedy scouts with
long-range guns, but by inability to
have submarines on the scene when the
final test against the enemy came.
The department tonight Issued the
following statement summarizing re
ports on the maneuvers:
"The problem on the part of the At
lantic fleet was, in brief, to prevent a
more powerful fleet than our own from
e.-Uablishlng a base at some point be
tween Enstport, Me... and Cape Hat
iras, from which to invade the coun
try. Koemy In Stronger.
'When Admiral Fletcher moved out
from New York at noon of May 18 with
the blue fleet he faced the difficult
problem of meeting an enemy stronger
than his own in every branch except
submarines and especially superior in
scouts. Admiral Fletcher's plan of de
fense, was excellent, but was not suc
cessful, owing to weather conditions
and tho marked superiority of the
enemy in scouts.
"The attacking fleet, under Rear
Admiral Beatty, approached at a dis
tance of several hundred miles by a
line of fast scouts spaced at intervals
and covering a front of nearly 500
miles; behind this line and ready to
tiffen it at any point where necessary,
came a line of battle cruisers and
armored cruisers. These red scouts
and cruisers had the problem not only
of locating the blue fleet, but also of
preventing any concentration of ships
from the blue fleet from breaking
through a weak point in their line and
attacking tho red transports- following
behind the main red fleet. These
transports were Intended to effect a
foothold on the coast and maintain
themselves there until reinforcements
could be brought to their support.
"The advance forces came in con
tact soon after daylight on the 20th.
Within-a few hours about half tho blue
scouts had been put out of action,
the most effective work against thorn
being done by the enemy's battle
cruisers, whoso high speed and long
range enabled them to pick off the
slower and weaker cruisers almost at
will, at tho same time eluding the
supporting dreadnoughts.
"Admiral Fletcher withdrew to the
northward, using his remaining scouts
to Fearch and guard the area from
which he believed the red fleet would
pass if it contemplated landing on the
New Kngland coast. This was, as a
matter of fact. Admiral Beatty's plan,
although Admiral Fletcher had not
actually located the red fleet. The
blue fleet succeeded in protecting this
region and forcing Admiral Beatty's
In the end to seek an opening to the
southward.
"Unfmr" Outflank Defenders.
"In the meantime Admiral Beatty
was holding his main force well out
to sea and following up every move of
the defending fleet with, his scouts.
Thus one fleet was able to make every
move with knowledge of the enemy's
whereabouts while the other was in
the dark. When convinced that no
opening was to be expected along the
New Kngland coast. Admiral Beatty
turned toward the South and passed
around the flank of the defending
forces, starting out about noon' of
the 24th for the Chesapeake. During
he night of the 24th Admiral Fletcher
left the vicinity of Cape Cod where he
had remained for three days and moved
Southward. News of this move almost
immediately reached Beatty, who was
at that time heading for Cape Henry,
100 miles ahead of the blue fleet.
"At noon on the 25th, Admiral
Beutty turned back with most of his
heavy ships to meet and engage the
blue fleet, his transports in the mean
time continuing south with a strong
escort toward the mouth of- Chesa
peake Bay. As the force with which
he thus threatened the blue fleet was
decidedly more powerful than that
which Admiral ' Fletcher could bring
ncainst it. and as the submarines of
the defending force were not near
enough to take part In the engage
ment, the umpire decided that Admiral
Beatty's forces could, without diffi
culty, seize a base in or near the
Chesapeake, that the red force had
been successful In its object and that
the strategical maneuvers were at
end."

FULL HOLIDAY IS URGED
ROSE FESTIVAL AUXILIARY RE
QUESTS ACTION FOR JUNE 11.
Women's Cluba and Fraternal Organi
sations to Appeal to Merchants In
Behalf of Industrial Parade.
Friday. June 11 proclaimed a holi
day in Portland by Governor and Mayor
will be a holiday in fact as well as
spirit, If the Rose Festival Auxiliary,
which met at the Hotel Multnomah
Wednesday evening to discuss features
of the fraternal, civic and industrial
parade of that eventful day, has its
way.
That every business house in Port
land should close its doors- for a full
day was the feeling expressed.
"When employes who are participants
in the parade must work until the last
moment before the procession is on its
way. because the lack of civic pride or
realization of the necessity of support
ing the efforts of the community causes
their employer to declare only a half
holiday, they are late in putting in an
appearance, the parade drags, the spec
tators quibble at the delay and the ef
fectiveness of the spectacle is injured."
declared John F. Schroeder. chairman
of the prize and parade committee.
James Rudeman, L. P. Morrow and
J. E. Werlein were others to advocate
heartily the closing of stores for the
day.
Representatives of women's clubs and
fraternal organizations present unani
mously resolved to request, personally,
in the names of the representative
bodies, of many of the larger corpora
tions that the day be made a holiday.

termined to shut down for the day were
requested by G. I Baker to leave this
information at his headquarters. 417

were brought safely to port tonight
by the battleship South Carolina, which
participated in the rescue.

bay. She was drawing 36 feet of
water and much of her cargo, contain
ing foodstuffs for Holland, valued at
$1,000,000, was destroyed. A hole in
her side below the water line about
the width of a plate was stopped with
canvas. The Cuneo, damaged, was pro

Carolina and Texas rushed to the
scene. Before their arrival, the pas
