SIS RAPS BRITISH
War-Time Cable Asserts Eng
lish Are in Panic.
ADMIRAL "UNDER SPELL"
Daniels Declares Tliat Commander
Had Tendency to Belittle
Anything Done in America.
WASHINGTON. May 12. The veil
of secrecy Behind which the American
Mvy operated during; the war "was
lifted further today by Secretary
Daniels.
Continuing his testimony before the
senate committee investisating Rear
Admiral Sims' charges that the navy
failed to co-operate folly' with the al
lies, the secretary "read a confidential
cablegram sent to Adaiiral Sims at
London on -July 4, 1917, by President
Wilson. In it the president paid that
In the presence of the submarine
cracrgcnci; the British admiralty was
"helpless almost to the point of
panic" and asked the admiral to sub
mit a report based upon "independent
thought of the whole" situation, with
out regard to the Judfrment of any
one on that side of the water."
Admiral Sims' responso, Mr. Daniels
testified, was "a long telegram of
Reneralitics of what the British ad
miralty was doing." In this connec
tion Secretary Daniels said the ad
miral's reply to the president sug
gested that the proper policy to pur
sue was to adopt the recommenda
tions he had made to the navy depart
ment. Tnost of which, the witness tes
tified, had been put into operation be
fore the admiral suggested them.
Nmvj'h I'lans Discredited. .
The naval secretary told the com
mittee that Admiral Sims in his reply
evidently had sought to discredit the
navy department's plans and that in
stead of accepting the .department s
suggestion of great, offensive plana
or "originating some plan that prom
ised to stop the egress of German
submarines." Admiral Sims had closed
his mind' to every plAn "looking to'
the great offensive which in the fall
of 19J8 was the most effoctive against
mbmarines."
President Wilson's message to Sims
follows:
"From the beginning of the war, I
have been greatly surprised at the
failure of the British admiralty to
use Great Britain's great naval su
periority in an effective way. In the
presence of the present submarine
emergency they are helpless to the
point of panic.
"livery plan, we suggest they re
ject for some reason of prudence. In
my view this Is not a time for pru
dence, but for boldness even at the
cost of great loss. -
"In most of your dispatches, you
have quite properly advised us of the
sort of aid and co-operation desired
from us by the admiralty. The trouble
is that' their plans and methods do
not seem to us efficacious. . I would
bo very much obliged to you if you
would report to me, confidentially of
course, exactly what the admiralty
has been doing and what they have
aecomDlished and. added to the report,
your own comments and suggestions,
based upoTi independent thought of
the whole situation, without regard
to the Judgments of any one on that
aide of the water.
British Shy at Convoys.
"The admiralty was very slow to
adopt the protection of convoys and
It is not now, I judge, protecting
convoys on adequate scale within the
danger zone, seeming to keep small
craft with the grand fleet. The ab
sence of craft for convoy is even more
apparent on ttie French coast than
on the lingllsh co.ast,"and in the chan
nel. "I do not see how the npMcarv
military supplies and supplies of food
snd fuel oil are to be delivered at
British ports in any other way within
the next few months than under ade
quate convoy. There will presently
not be ships or tankers enough and
our shipbuilding plans may not begin
to yield important results in less than
18 months.
"I believe that you will keep these
instructions absolutely and entirely
to yourself and that you will give
me surh advice as you would give
if you were handling, and if you were
r i mining a navy oi your own.
sima- rear indicated.
Mr. Daniels also read a letter from
Admiral Sims to former Ambassador
Page at London, written August 7
1917. which in part said:
"In this connection I have a sug
gestion to make. I have received
. word, practically directly from the
president, that he was much dis-
pleased with my reply to his cable
gram; that it did not change his
opinion at all, .that he regards me
as owned by the admiralty and eo
pro-British that he seriousl:' con-
' " . . . v. ..v. . . oa ii u n ii l replacing
me by some other officer."
Admiral Sims' reply to the presi
dent told also of plans, for a com
bined sea and land attack to turn

the German right flank and cut off
Keebrugge as a provisir 'ng base,
Mr. Daniels said.
"That was the kind of. "bold and
audacious thing the president and
navy department had been urging
from our entrance into the war," de
clared the secretary. But even then.
Admiral Sims said it had not been
definitely decided on by the war
council, though the daring and suc
cessful attack on Zeebrugge came
much later. It might "have been a
very different story if it had" been
undertaken earlier when the navy de
partment was urging some such bold
plan, all of which Admiral Sims
thought 'impracticable" when urged
by the navy department.
Many Plana Belittled.
Admiral Sims told the president he
had seen studies of the department's
plan to prevent the egress of submar
ines, Mr. Daniels said, and that he
considered the scheme impracticable.
"He evidently thought to discredit
the navy department's plans by say
ing that these same suggestions and
many similar ones had been made by
people in all classes since the begin
ning of the war," said Mr." Daniels.
Sims' cable to the president suggested
that the proper policy to pursue was
to adopt the recommendations he had
made to the department, "most of
which had- been decided upon and put
in operation before Admiral Sims'
suggested -them," Secretary Daniels
declared.
"He added." the secretary contin
ued, "that we should adopt an or
ganization similar in all respects to
the British squadron and virtually
transfer all navy authority to his
headquarters in London." .
Two "remarkable and significant
statements" in Admiral Sims' reply to
President Wilson were cited by Mr.
Daniels as evidence that the admiral
was "so hypnotized by British, influ
ences that he was willing to try to
lure the president of the United States
into the feeling that, regardless of
future developments, we can always
count upon the support of the British
navy.
British Pledge. Ridiculed.
The first was that the views he
had expressed were in all cases "an
independent opinion based upon Fpe
cific facts collected in the admiralty
and other government departments."
The second was as follows:
"Depend upon the fact, which I be
lieve to be true, that, regardless of
any future developments, we can al
ways count upon the support of the
British navy. I have been assured of
this by important government of
ficials." '
"It' would be interesting to know
what British government officials as
sured hiin that, regardless of future
developments, the United States can
always count upon the .support of the
British navy," said Mr. Daniels. "It
seems inconceivable that any admiral
could have regarded such assurances
as worth paying tolls to transmit.
Every schoolboy should know that in
a democratic government no govern
ment official could pledge his coun
try's navy to support another gov
ernment, regardless of future devel
opments. It is to be hoped that if
Admiral Sims has such assurances he
will send a copy of the pledge in writ
ing, with the name of the "important
government officials' appended there
to, to be filed in the archives of 'sops
for the simple.'
Spell Over Admiral British.
Admiral Sims was "under the spell
of influences that made him believe
that the British government could be
depended upon more to take care of
America than that America should de
pend upon her own strong right arm,"
said Mr. Daniels.
"This attitude of acceptance of
everything British," he added, "un
doubtedly accounts for his opposition
to the creation of an independent
American army and his idea that
American troops sent abroad 'should
be used as an annex to the British
army, quoting General Bliss as rec
ommending that policy. When General
Bliss read that Admiral Sims had
quoted him as advocating such a pol
icy, he wrote at once to the secretary
of war, declaring the truth, to be ex
actly the reverse " i
Secretary Daniels presented a let
ter from former Representative Car
lln of Virginia, dated last April 20,
and stating that while Mr. Carlin was
visiting in London in December, 1918,
Admiral Sims had "disabused" his
mind of the view that "our navy had
been of great importance during the
war and had accomplished 6plendid
results."
Recommendation Polly Met.
"He told me our navy was small
and ineffective as compared with the
British navy, and that our achieve
ments had amounted to but little dur
ing the war,"' wrote Mr. Carlin. "I
remember that after leaving the ad
miral I told my son, who was with
me, that the 'admiral should be in the
British navy and on .their payroll,
and not on ours."
Admiral Sims' charge that the navy
department refused . to send enough
anti-submarine vessels to .the war
zone was disproved by the admiral's
own language, Miy Daniels testified.
He read a cable "from Sims dated
April 28, 1917, stating that 20 odd
.American destroyers operating from
QueenstowTr would put down the sub
marine activity and keep it down.
By the end of May there were 28 de
stroyers and two tenders at Queens
town, the secretary said.
"Thue we had dispatched, within a
month, more tnan the British war
council and admiralty had decided
were needed to 'put down' the dan
gerous submarine activity in that
area and 'keep it down,"" declared Mr.
Daniels.

dent.. They were rejected. We on this
side offered all the compromises. You
offered none." t
Senator Thomas, democrat, Colo
rado, also expressed doubt as to the
possible full effectiveness of the resolution.-
He said he opposed the. reso
lution because he believed it "a'clear
invasion of the executive power." He
opposed the resolution also, he said,
because it sought to-secure benefits
from the treaty that the senate re
fused to ratify.
President Severely Criticised.
Senator Thomas also criticised
President Wilson for sending his tele
gram on the league of nations to the
campaign manager in Oregon of Sen
ator Chamberlain's opponent.
"He . charges""almost directly every
senator voting against the treaty
or for the treaty with reserva
tions with dishonor, because he says
in his letter that euch action is ut
terly inconsistent with the -nation's
honor," the senator said. j
"This letter is addressed to some
obscure and unknown individual in
Portland, Or., whose chief claim to
prominence, 1 understand, is his "ani
mosity to Oregon' great senior sen
ator (Mr. Chamberlain).
"With all due respect to the presi
dent, he might at least have given
this document to the world through
the official " organization of the na
tional democracy of the senate or
house leaders.
"I do not contend that this pro
nunciamento was designed to aid the
enemies of the senator from Oregon.
I doh't know. But it justifies such
a presumption because the senator
once had the misfortune to incur the
displeasure of the president."
Praising Senator Chamberlain's war
record,. Mr. Thomas said the Oregon
member, "contributed more to the
success f American arms than any
of his associates," and expressed the
hope that Oregon would not unseat
Mr. Chamberlain.
Ongas Senator Gets Tribute.
Senator Jones', republican, Wash
ington, also joined in the tribute to
Senator Chamberlain whom Mr. Jones
declared "was more responsible than
any man in our country that our boys
were prepared in time."
Senator Phelan, joining in the de
bate, declared that "the value of the
services of he senator from Oregon
are so great to his country that ihe
majority of his associatees would hate
to lose him, but the president is en
titled to his. views.
"It is unfair to infer," said Senator
Phelan, "that there was any intention
on the part of the president to re
flect on the Oregon senator by the
letter you have mentioned. The sec
retary of the president, in his behalf
has disavowed such, intent."
"I don't know',' retorted Senator
Thomas, "that the disavowal has been
made, but it ought to be. The presi
dent has a( right to his views. It is
also our right when reflections are
made on our official conduct to say
what we think about It. I voted
against the treaty; if it ever comes to
the senate again while I'm here my
vote will be the same.
Dishonor Roll Is Read.
"Outside of the three malignants of
the democratic party here of which
I am one 20 of my colleagues, ac
cording to the president have been
guilty of 'dishonoring the nation, de
feating the hopes of the world.' "
Senator Thomas at this point read
the names from a roll call running
from Ashurst to Wolcott.
Senator King, democrat, Utah, In
terjected, "there were a number of
us absent on that occasion who were
paired to make our votes of the same
effect.
"I'll' not have the' temerity to add
their names," responded Senator
Thomas.
'They would be glad to be there,'.'
Senator King insisted.
The democratic attack upon the re
publican peace resolution was
launched by Senator Hitchcock of Ne
braska, administration spokesman.
ho declared, in addressing the sen
ate that the measure was futile and
inconsistent and inimical to the
treaty of Versailles.
"Great expectations for an act of
congress tnat would torce a peace
settlement are to be disappointed.
High hopes that a resolution by con
gress could be made to perform the
functions oi a peace treaty are aban
doned. Instead of a peace settlement
to be forced by resolution of manda
tory requirements as the price of sev
ering commercial relations. wwe are
merely to repeal the war declaration,
declare the war at an end and invite
the president to negotiate a separate
peace," he. said.
Zig-Zag Course on Peace.
Mr. Hitchcock cited three similar
resolutions which he said had been
sponsored since last November 'by
Senator Knox of Pennsylvania, au
thor of the pending resolution. The
latter, Mr, Hitchcock said, is the
fifth peace resolution offered by the
republican leadership
"In reaching this important conclu
sion," he said of the pending meas
ure, "the supporters of the novel
plan have . staggered from side to
side over a zigzag course for nearly
six months."
Senator Hitchcock denied that con
gress has the power to make peace,
although it has authority to declare
war. The states voted unanimously
Sure

Hot water

against giving, congress peace-making
jurisdiction, he said.
Senator Knox' recent argument that
the war actually was at an end was
conceded by Mr. Hitchcock, who
asked:
"Then why this resolution? Hos
tilities ceased 18 months ago and our
army was reduced to a peace basis.
Since that time commerce has been
resumed. We have sold hundreds of
millions of dollars' worth of prod
ucts to Germany and purchased much
from her. The war, which the sen
ator from Pennsylvania proposes to
end by this resolution, does not by
his own admission exist.
Attack oa Treaty Futile.
"What then is the senator from
Pennsylvania attempting to do by
this measure, which he calls a reso
lution to terminate tho war? He is
making an utterly futile and hopeless
attempt , to make a peace settlement
with Germany to take the place of
the Versailles treaty.
"Instead of declaring peace," he
said, "tho Knox resolution declares
the war at an end. Thus we have
raised the Interesting distinction ber
tween declaring; peace and declaring
war at an end."
The peace resolution adopted by the
house last " month was denounced
especially by Mr. Hitchcock because
of Its proposals for an embargo
against Germany within 45 days in
event of German objections to the
resolution and its provision for re
serving rights under the treaty.
In the house resolution, he said.,
"we demand the benefits of the treaty.
wmcn we have refused to ratify.
Reviewing the course of otbeP
peace resolutions, Mr. Hitchcock said
a previous resolution by Senator
Knox was "abandoned on -the senate
doorstep like its predecessors."
; Separate Pea re Condemned.
"But the effort to do something to
escape from the constitutional method
of making peace was not abandoned,"
he continued. "Something had to b-e
done. Intrasigneant statesmen who
had refused all efforts to reach an
agreement or compromise on the peace
treaty, felt the growing responsi
bility." . -
House republicans, Mr. Hitchcock
charged, were called into conference
and, the house action arranged., al
though he declared that the house
never had been permitted a voice in"
peace proceedings previously. Upon
receipt of the house resolution by the
senate, however, Mr. Hitchcock said,
there was a sudden change of plans
and the present resolution was drafted
as a futile plan for republican in
dorsement. Senator Hitchcock criticised espe
cially the proposal that the president
be asked to negotiate a separate
treaty with Germany.
"Only a few months ago," he said,
"the same senators who now propose
this request were violent in condemn
ing any such suggestion."
Reading from an article by Senator
Lodge appearing in a magazine in De
cember, 1918, in which the republican
loader declared "it would brand us
with everlasting dishonor and bring
ruin to us also if we undertook to
make a separate peace," Senator
Hitchcock asked:
"Do the supporters of this request
want to brand us with dishonor and
bring ruin upon us?"
Constitution Defied, Says Hitchcock.
"In another provision of the reso
lution," the senator continued, "it is
stated that the United States does not
waive any of .its rights under the
treaty it has rejected. Could anything
be more ridiculous than to assume
and indicate that we have any rights
to waive after we have refused to
ratify the treaty which grants them?
Altogether the five desperate at
tempts to defy the constitution and
substitute a resolution for a treaty
make a fine display of legislative ex
perimentation.
"Resolved, that the war has ended;
resolved, that peace exists; resolved
that we force Germany to grant us
what we might get if we signed the
treaty; resolved, that the president be
requested to negotiate a separate
peace; resolved, that we will not give
up German property; resolved, that
we will not waive any. rights under
the treaty one and all of them fool
ish and. futile attempts to evade the
constitutional way of securing peace
by ratifying the treaty negotiated In
a constitutional way. All of them are
hopeless. All of them doomed to de
feat. All of them attempted simply
as a desperate means of getting out
of a bad situation which certain
statesmen find themselves in."

Washington, May IS. While leaders
of the two old parties are going ahead
making plans for their national con
ventions soon to be held, there are
unmistakable signs of a third party
movement. " '
Evidences of this fact-has cropped
out several times recently and there
is no question that, notwithstanding
the protests of ., Samuel Gompers,
president of. the American Federation
of Labor, the plans of a certain poli
tical leader and the "committee of
48" are going on in a businesslike
way. .........
There It no doubt that - these ex
tremists have picked their ticket, to
be made public the moment that both
of the major parties fail to respond
to the demand for a ticket and a plat
form that. Is a cross between philo
sophical bolshevlsm and North Dakota
non-partisan leagueism.
Party Movement Growing;.
During the hearing a teyr days ago
before the house rules committee of
Louis F. Post, assistant secretary of
labor, charged with having been too
lenient xwith aliens arrested on de
portation warrants, a professional
radical publicity promoter found
some suggestion of the third party
movement in one of the utterances
of a speaker Leaning over to the
correspondent, he said:
"I. want to tell you this third
party movement is growing and un
less the republicans nominate Hiram
Johnson or the democrats name Mc
Adoo there will be a third party in
the campaign."
He volunteered the further informa
tion that the third-party ticket will
be For president, Robert M. La Fo
lette of Wisconsin for vice-president,
Frank P. Walsh of Missouri. Obvious
ly since then the third party enthu
siasts have been doing too much
talking, because the programme then
announced has crept Into print and
the story of what is to happen has
been considerably built upon.
La Follette Bolt Poanlhle.
One rumor is that unless the re
publican delegates assembling In Chi.
cago June 8 nominate either La t oi
lette or Hiram Johnson and adopt a
platform embodying the radical prin
ciples on which the La Follette party
won Its recent victory in Wisconsin,
Senator La Follette will walk out of
the convention with his 24 delegates.
This move, it is said, is to be signal
for organizing the proposed third
party. And it can be safely said
that the ' republican convention will
never consider Ca Follette.
It is almost a certainty, however,
that the radicals will , not be so rash
as to act at once upon that signal,
preferring to, wait until the demo
cratic convention, to assemble in San
Francisco on June 28, has disposed of
its nomination and platform. The left
wing, which includes the Plumb plan
league .and a large aggregation vof
radicals who can call themselves
democrats as easily as anything else,
have their eyes on Mr. McAdoo.
Berger Reported Pleaaed.
Although the McAdoo nomination
would not satisfy all of the elements
ardently for La Follette and Walsh,
and particularly the Sinn Fein and
others opposed to the league of na
tions, it is thought that his strong
appeal to the Plumb plan leaguers,
the non-partisan leaguers, the social
ists and some other extremists would
be so discouraging to the La'FolIette
Walsh backers that they might abac.,
don the third party plan.
Already it is said that the La Fol
lette tendencies are so pleasing to
Victor Berger that he has abandoned
his intention of running for the
United States senate in Wisconsin,
this year, preferring Instead to seek
the governorship. His design is said
to be to leave the socialist ticket
blank as to the senatorship in order
that the socialists may be able to help
nominate Thompson, the La Follette
candidate, in the republican primaries
over Senator Irvin L. Lenroot, who is
seeking a renominatlon.
