SIMS-DANIELS ROW
Lanning Letter, and Testi
mony Seem at Variance.
DANIELS POLICY SCORED
Head of Department Said to Have
Been Too Much Absorbed With
31 i nor Xavy Matters.
WASHINGTON, March 14 After
Captain Harris Laning, former assist
ant chief of navigation, had told the
senate committee investigating the
ims-Ianiels row today that the navy
had been without a comprehensive
plan for war and that chaos virtually
existed. Senator Trammell, democrat,
Florida, confronted the captain with
a letter he had written to Admiral
Sims on August 18, 1918, saying he
was "not convinced" that the bureau
of operations "had erred in itjs general
plans" and saying also that had
Nome of Sims' recommendations
been adopted they would have been
"disastrous."
Senator Trammell contended that
Laning's letter wis a complete con
tradiction of some of the Sims charges
and also some of the charges in Lin
ing's statement of today, but the cap
tain contended that his letter referred
to a period in the war later than
that involved in the charges by Ad-1
miral Sims.
Not only was the navy department
without a comorehenslve plan for
naval particiaptlon in war when the
United States severed relations with
Germany, but Secretary Daniels dis
approved the general plan drawn up
by the bureau of operations and sub
mitted in March. 1917. Captain Laning
told the committee.
Department Held t'kaotir.
As the result of this alleged lack
of preparation, the witness said, the
navy department virtually was In a
state of chaos the day the United
States entered the war.
Tersonal characteristics" of Secre
tary I.iuniels often made it impossible
to obtain approval of Important plans
and policies. Captain leaning asserted,
as the personal interest taken by him
in minor affairs "occupied so much
time that he never had much left to
give us for really important prob
lems." Captain Laning testified that at
the time war was declared there was
not a sufficient reserve of 14-inch
shells to refill the magazines of the
dreadnaughts and that the bureau of
ordnance had to obtain the aid of
the bureau of operations to bring the
matter ta the secretary's attention
lmpressivt-ly enough to get authority
to let contracts.
Misa Harper, who had identified the
i pictures of Meyers . and his still.
wherein the defendant was busied at
transmuting mash to moonshine,
married the defendant, in Pendleton,
i shortly before he came- to trial, to
evade the necessity of testifying
against him.
"When Miss Harper married Mey
ers," said Deputy United States At
torney Keames. discussing the case,
"the presumption was that the de
fendant would escape the penalty, for
It was upon the young woman's iden
tification of the photos that we
counted. But we found, another way
out and Meyers consented to plead
guilty." .
The still which Meyers operated
was never located by the federal of
ficers. Only the. photos of Meyers
and the still, quite evidently engaged
in the making of liquor, were found.
Hut the identification of these served
to induce the Pendleton man to enter j
a plea of guilty In Federal Judge
Wolverton's court, and take his sen- .
tence.
Meyers and Misa Harper were mar
ried while both were at liberty on
bail, a few days before they were
summoned to federal court.

After several weeks' delay. Captain
Laning said, the shells were ordered.
Other charges made by the witness
were that the department In the years
immediately preceding the war did
not advocate legislation and policies
that would prepare the navy for hos
tilities; that when it was apparent
war could not be avoided the de
partment still refused to prepare
that lack of co-ordination in the. de-
partment during the early months of
the 'war reduced the effectiveness of
.American participation and added to
the cost, and that when war was de
dared the department told the coun
try the navy was ready, when in
reality it was known that it would
take at least 100 days to prepare even
the latest ships for active service.
Senator Trammell. democrat. Flor
Ida, read a letter written by the cap
tain to Rear-Admiral Sims In August,
1918, app. rently in answer to a letter
from the admiral criticising the de
partment for not co-operating more
fully with thenaval forces abroad
The Laning letter opened with the
statement that the writer was "not
convinced" that the bureau of opera
tions had "erred in its general plans'
and declared that a suggestion made
by Admiral Suns earlier that the bat
tleships be placed out of commission
ana ineir crews be sent overseas
would, if adopted, have proved "dis
astrous." The letter continued:
Sim. Criticism Decried.
"Over there you give us the devil
because we don't do all that you want
us to do. You feel that we are failing
you. Does it help the morale over
there or over here to do that? .
Criticism is easy and. just criticism is
beneficial, but there is nothing more
lowering to the morale than unjust
criticism and criticism made without
full knowledge and thought is apt to
be unjust. ,
After reading the letter Senator
Trammell asked Captain Laning if
he did not think the letter answered
many of Admiral Sims' charges and
some of the criticisms made by Cap
tain Laning himself in his direct
statement. The officer replied that
he did not believe so: that the letter
referred to a period much later In the
war than that covered by the Sims
charges and his own testimony.
At the request of Senator Pittman,
democrat, Nevada, the committee ad

miral Sims testified.
Daniel to Be Heard.
Chairman Hale also read into the
records his reply to Secretary Dan
iels' request that the Bliss letter be
put into the record, saying he con
sidered it Improper to insert papers
into the record at the request of per
sons not before the committee and
that Mr. Daniels would be given op
portunity to present any documents
lie desired when he was called to tes
tify. The chairman's letter a'dded that
"the papers have nothing to do with
the very definite criticism of lack of
preparedness and prompt support on
the part of the navy department made
by Admiral Sims in his letter of Jan
uary 1."
OREGONIAX NEWS BUREAU,
Washington, March 24. Under the
editorial head. "Republican Leaders
Must Repudiate Jonathan Bourne,"
the Philadelphia Public Ledger
launched a vitriolic attack today on
the Republican publicity association
conducted in this city by Ex-Senator
Jonathan Bourne of Oregon.
The former senator's offense is his
long series of assaults through his
publicity agency on Herbert Hoover,
who is the Ledger candidate for the
presidential nomination on any ticket.
The Ledger has a n-ent reference
by the Bourne organization to the
published letter written by Hoover to
the president during the peace con
ference In Paris, urging that the
United States retire from Europe,
"lock, stock and barrel." In stating
its case against the former Oregon
senator the Ledger says:
"That letter was published In the
Public Ledger. Mr. Hoover at once
stated most plainly and without
equivocation that neither he nor his
organization had given it out. The
Public Ledger went further, and
added that the letter did not come
from any one connected with the
movement to make Mr. Hoover a
candidate for the presidency. That
ought to have been explicit enough
for an association of gentlemen ac
customed to dealing with gentlemen.
'But on top of this, the Jonathan
Bourne organization gave out a state
ment to the effect that In the middle
of March. 1920, after beginning a
campaign for the presidency, Herbert
Hoover permits his friends to give to
the public a letter, etc. This is a
blunt lie direct delivered in the face
of Mr. Hoover. Mr. Hoover did not
'permit' his friends or anybody else
to give out the letter in question.
He did not know it was coming out.
Yet the Jonathan Bourne bureau, with
its resounding 'republican' tag, says
that he did know, that he was privy'
to its publication and that manifestly
the publication of this letter is fo
political purposes.'
"It is for the republicans to decUle
how long fhey can rest easy under
the general imputation that they are
behind this disreputable style of
campaign. It Is not a method
fighting that wins ; either respect
toleration or victory. The American
people have a high standard of de
cency; and they instinctively resent
the revival of the controversial meth
ods of the now defunct barroom for
the purposes of political debate."

Herald. Published by Arrangement.)
NEW YORK, March 24. (Special)
On the face of the returns received
from the poll of the republican
county chairmen in Michigan, Major
General Wood is the first choice of
the organization there for the presi
dential nomination. Governor Low
den is second choice by a wide mar
gin. Reports from special correspond
ents, giving the last-minute condi
tions in the state, indicate that it will
be a pretty race for the presidential
preference in the primary to be held
on April 5. Wood is leading, but
Lowden is coming up rapidly, accord
ing to reports. Senator 'Johnson of
California, who has been making a
big play for the preference. Is Indi
cated as a poor third both by the poll
results and the correspondents.
Michigan's 30 delegates to the na
tional convention will be selected at
the state convention to be held in
Kalamazoo on May S.
So far as the congressional district
delegates are concerned, the state
convention will merely ratify the
prior choices made by the district
conventions.
The law does not bind the delegates
to vote for the presidential candidate
who wins in the primaries, but the
republican party of Michigan has
rule that they shall vote for such
candidate on the first ballot and so
long thereafter as it may be consid
ered the candidate has a chance for
nomination. However, the winning
of the preference in the primary is
considered to have strong moral
force.
the case of the state against Archie
C. .Shoemaker, charged with criminal
syndicalism, came to grief today when
in answer to the question as to
whether he was a member of the
I. W. W., he exhibited a red member
ship card. Information was imme
diately filed against him and be is
now in the county jail where he will
remain until the next Jury session of
court unless he can furnish bonds in
the sum of $1000 which seems im
probable.

The pictures, taken by moving pic
ture photographers last Sunday, show
the president in Beveral poses, and
the comment everywhere is that they
are the most interesting studies in
photography that have appeared in a
ong period. Though taken by the
permission of Mr. Wilson, there Is not
the sign of a smile, so characteristic
of pictures of the president taken
under similar circumstances before
his illness. The long sickness and
suffering has cut deeply into his fea
tures. , His face is thinner and his
hair much grayer, and all the softer,
more appealing glances of earlier
days appear to have surrendered to
the harshness of a much overwrought
man. The pictures are calculated to
excite sympathy and the profound
feeling that Mr. Wilson has resumed
his public duties much too soon.
The expression on the countenance
of Mrs. Wilson shown sitting beside
him in some of the pictures, is inter
preted as a sign of regret on her part
that consent was given to the pho
tographer to take the pictures at the
time. These pictures tell mora than
can be recited in words and as they
will be appearing on the Pacific coast
within the next two or three days.
it is not necessary further to dwell
upon their spelling. The least that
can be said is that they show it still
to be true, as has been said so many
times since last October, hat "the
president is still a' very sfctc man."
Primary Entrant Many.
Michigan has a good line of candi
dates in both the republican and the
democratic primaries. It requires
petition with only 100 names to place
a name on the ballot. After the time
for filing has expired it is impossible
to withdraw from the primary, as
several involuntary candidates have
discovered.
The republican entries are Wood,
Lowden. Johnson, General Pershing,
Senator Poindexter, Herbert Hoover
and William Gerald Simpson, a local
celebrity in a portion of the city of
Detroit.
When the barrier goes down for
the democratic steeplechase these can
didates will be off for the preference
of that organization in Michigan:
William J. Bryan. Attorney-General
Palmer, William G. McAdoo, Herbert
Hoover and Governor Edwards of
New Jersey.
A peculiar Interest will attach to
the Michigan primaries for the rea
son that it will be the only state
where there will be a clean-cut issue
between the "wet" Governor Edwards
and the "dry" Mr. Bryan. The New
JerMy-wevernor has been able to with
draw his name in all other states
where entered for the preferential
primary, but the peculiar law there
prevented it in Michigan. Mr. Mc
Adoo and Mr. Hoover also attempted
to get their names off the Michigan
ballot, in vain.
Because of the fact that the former
food administrator is a candidate both
in the republican and democratic pri
maries there will be an excellent
chance to compare his strength as a
republican and as a democratic can
didate for president.
Iesgue of Rations Is Iasae.
Prohibition does not seem to be in
the minds of the Michigan people as
a paramount issue.
The league of nations leads as an
issue, with "democratic inefficiency"
a close second and "Americanism"
close up.
Of all the "first, choice" votes re
ceived in the poll Major-General Wood
got 85.5 per cent and Lowden 14.5
per cent. No other candidate waa
mentioned as a first choice. There
were indications at the time the bal
lots were filled out from comments
written in that Lowden was "coming
up" strong and narrowing the gap
between himself and Wood. Late cor
respondence indicates that at present
the Wood lead is not nearly as large
as would be indicated by the above
percentages.
The county chairmen in indicating
their "second choice" went from Wood
to Lowden in great numbers, but not
from Lowden to Wood. That is. the
men who named Lowden as first did
not name Wood second, but the Wood
first men picked Lowden for second
to a great extent. Of all the second
choice" votes cast Lowden polled 60
per cent and Wood only 3 per cent.
Johnson and Harding got the same
number, with William H. Taft men
tioned in one county and Hoover in
another.
These were the comments made by
some in voting for Wood: "Wood
leads now," with the "now" under
scored: "Lowden Is gaining rapidly on
Wood ; This may change before
June 8."
Among other issues not already re-
ferred to brought out by the county
chairmen were extravagance in Wash
ington, the tariff, excessive taxation,
the relations between labor and cap
ital, the "high cost of living," social-
sm, military training, government
ownership, and "a vigorous foreign
and domestic police versus tergiversa
tion, which latter, being liberally
ranslated, means jumping from one
point of view to another.
Attorney-General Palmer is reported
as a slight favorite in the democratic
race.
