Deo. llTJy courier to Berlin. Tla London. Dec. II. The Am-tro-Ilungarlaa Admiralty I enUr17 opposed to any disavowal of th course of th aubmarlna commander who wa responsible for tho sinking of th I tails n steamer Ancona. On th contrary. It aparovea hi con duct fully and declare that he would have keen considered a having- failed to perform bl duly If he had allowed th Ancona to cecape. Reply Sat F.mpeed tooa. Tha reply to tb. American note. It I understood, will be delivered soon, pos sibly Wednesday. The correspondent of th Associated Press has not bean able to aecur a forecast of th term ot th reply, but all Indication ar. that a poaslmletle view of th situa tion I justified. Th Admiralty today staled It case and th attltud of tb naval authorl tlea aa follows: . "11 I b subtaarln commander duty to nakc a raport to a dealgnated baa soon possible, and th commander who sank th Ancona did tbla a oox aa h was within wlralsa diataaca of land- II mad a supplementary re port at Tola and accompanied It witn bl log. No xamtnatlon ot trek craw waa bald, beeaue tba commander re port a as considered complete and there waa no reason to suppose that th crew Could add anything thereto. 8o far th commander I con cerned, hi course Is clear. Tha Ad miralty has received hi report and no reason to find any fault with his course of action. Caaaaaadre Ad lea Justified. Tf any such reason existed; that la. If th Admiralty had found that th commander bad don anything contrary to It Instructions, It would spontan eously Institute an Investigation gainst him wlijuout waiting for any demand to come from foreign govern ment. It can happen that a command er la heat of battle deal contrary to Instruction, but nothing ot th kind baa occurred In thla caa. "It appear clearly from hi report that hi ablp was In danger, indeed In double danger, tlrat from th fact "that n enemy boat wga approaching on a Una tbat threatened to cut off hi re treat, and tha enemy ahlp and the An cona could have established his rsdtus of action and could bava set a torpedo boat flotilla on him. and second, there wa danx-ar of th Ancona escaping, which according to hi Instruction, wa to be prevented In all clrcum stanrca. Hence tbe conduct of the commandant, much aa tha loss of In nocent lives must be regretted and de plored, cannot b disapproved. "On th contrary. If be bad departed without destroying- the Ancona It would have been fallur to do bla duty, alne th Anrana would hav notified other hip of bl whereabouts. Th loss of American live la regrettable, a well aa hat American uaed a vessel be longing to a nation at war with Aus-ira-llungary." Disavowal Held "I atblaka"ble.- A naval writer and expert said to th Associated Tress correspondent In a discussion on the demand ot the American note: "It should bo remembered that Aus tria' fleet la her favorite child: Its honor and prestige ar treasured to th highest decree. The government mlgnt possibly yield points In a matter af fecting the army, but disavowal of an act of an Austrian naval officer la hardly thinkable la any but abnormal ctrcumatancea. I ara certain that It will have to be, a very extreme caa. Indeed, which could Justify. In th aye of all Austrlana. any humiliation of a naval officer at th behest of a foreign power." GARRISON ON GRILL Critic Asks What American Liberties Are Worth. WAR. COLLEGE DEFENDED Army and Navy Journal Say Sec retary ncllltled Report That Maeto Kffort to point Out Ileal Danger. to Country. OREOONIAJf NEWS BUREAC.Wasn Ingron. Dec 15. Doubtless reflecting the views of Army men. th Army and Navy Journal scathingly condemns Sec retary of War Garrison tor bia at tempt to belittl tn report of th Army War College, in which military experts have undertaken to point out ine needs or tb American Army. Th Secretary of War. It may b re called, up to laat September waa In hearty accord with tha War College and In favor of such extentlon of the Army as tbe military men demed necessary. Than, after consultation with President Wilson, the Secretary changed hi view, thrust aside the report of the War College and trans mitted to the President an Army pro gramme which he himself had drawn up. and which fall far short of meeting- what Army men believe to b the situation. War College Belittled by Secretary. When the recommendation of the War College was made public It was accompanied by a statement from Sec retary Garrison Intended to create the Impression that the report represent only ine view or a lew orricera. The report waa not reviewed by tbe mobile array division of the general staff, it I true, but that failure waa due solely to an order of Secretary Garrison. Re garding tha War College report, the Army and Navy Journal says editori ally: "The Inferential objection which the Secretary raise to tho War College plan 1 It cost. In thla connection tt ralgbt be well for th Secretary to In form Congress just bow much our lib erties and institutions aro worth. He might add to this tha money value of th country, so tbat Congress could be guided by thla. rather than the strength of the land force which would be re quired to meet any of our possible enemjes. Invaders Wald Be Veteraaa. "Th troop of any of the nations that would ba sent to this country, tha War College point out, would have a minimum of two year' training with the color In time of peace. With carefully prepared estimates of tha strength of the army of trained troops that any of the great powers could sand against the country, tbe War Col- leg reached tha conclusion that a ound military policy would require this country to maintain 100.000 trained and organised mobile troops that would ba available at the outbreak of the war. and that It should have at least SOO.000 more which could be placed in tba field within 10 day thereafter. In reaching thla conclusion It divided th available transports of tha different countries by two and mad. an allow ance for three months supplies and equipment.
