SIMS WOULD LIKE
TO TALK FURTHER,
BUTHOLDSTGNGUE
By Earle C Rrcvea
. Ixjhdon, June. 1$. I. JsV S.)
Rear Admiral William S. Sims, U- S,
N., who baa been recalled by Sec
retary of the "Navy Ienby because
of his sensational public speeches,
has retired into silence and will say
nothing- more, ithe Daily ; Mail ad
vanced today.
Admiral Sims u quoted by the Daily
Mall as saying:: t-
'l should Hits to have riven your coun
try a farewell massage before returning
to the United Stales, tout-now I am un
der indictment and I feet that I can
say nothing more .here."
Secretary of the Navy tenbys cable
gram ordering Admiral Sims to return
at once anil make a . report was received
by the American naval officer this morn
ing. Asked by an International News
Service correspondent if- he cared to
; make a statement, Admiral Sims replied :
y "l have no comment to make."
A dispatch received from London In
Washington containing Admiral Sims'
reply to Denby's first cablegram of in
quiry concerning the admiral's speech of
last Tuesday was the first indication
here that-the American naval -officer has
charged that he was misquoted. This
Washington .dispatch was followed by
publication i bf a letter from Admiral
Sims to the London Times asking news
papers to" correct their j report of his
speech Friday before the American
Luncheon dub in which We (Sims) was
: made to refer to ."impossible men on the
allied council." .
So far nothing has been .said here In
public In the way of an accusation that
Admiral Sims was misquoted in his fa-
' mous "jackass" speech pf last Tuesday
when he severely criticised the American
friends ef the Sinn Feinera,
SIMS' DENIAL MAY SAVE HIM
REPRIMAND FROM PENBY
, By Geerse H. polities
Washington, June 11. (I. N. S)-The
reply of Bear Admiral Sims to Secretary
" f the Navy Penby, constituting virtue
ally a complete disavowal of the state
ments attributed to him in .his London
speeches, has made it almost certain that
no severe punishment will be meted out
to him when he returns"to "report in
person id ip jtcrtiarjf vi i"B (II J. i
was satdtoday In high naval quarters.
Admiral Sims cabled that he bad been
" "misquoted" that the context of , his
speech was "garbled,' misleading . and
inferentially wrong. So far as : the
speeches themselves are concerned, this
' virtually closes the case, it was said to
day. There was no disposition mani
fested today to question the veracity of
the distinguished -and voluble admiral.
, The admiral already has been j ac?
corded a rebuke more severe , than, has
been handed any Officer of his rank
within the memory of the older naval of
ficers In Washington. For an officer of
jStms' rank to be called upon sum ma I'll y
to make an explanation and following
this to be peremptorily ordered home
and his leave revoked, constitute in
,. themselves a reproof , pf no small pro-
. portions. : r ; i

PLOSON
PUEBLO FLOOD WAS
NOT EXAGGERATED,
SAYS EVE WITNESS
Reports on the number of deaths
in the Pueblo flood, were , not over
estimated' in the opinion of Mrs. L.
D. Taylor of Oklahoma City, the f jrst
eye ; witness to the high waters in
tha Colorado city to reach. Portland.
"It. 'i generally believed by Pueblo
people that the death Hsi will reach 600
when the search for missing bodies has
been completed," she said today.
Mrs. Taylor was marooned for five
days in Pueblo by the flood after nar
rowly escaping death.: while clinging to
the side ef an overturned Pullman car
on a railroad bridge across the Arkansas
river. the first night of the disaster. Her
train reached Pueblo from Denver only
a few minutes before the flood struck.
Before the train could be dragged away
from the storm swept district, near the
Union station the flood had halted it on
the bridge from which there was no es
cape. She came West on one of the first
trains to leave Pueblo over the Denver &
Rio Grande and is now visiting Mrs, A.
J. Taylor. 212 Park street, i v j; j
v Mrs- Taylor was accompanied by her
two sons. Charles, 18, and Russell. 17.
The younger sen was swept from the top
of the train on which he and his mother
and brother, had taken refuge, but manr
aged to escape to the shore. Mrs, Tay
lor and the other son were taken off
shortly before daylight with other pas
sengers. , When the car on which Mrs. Taylor
wag a passenger overturned, she kicked
a window put to get a more eecure foot
ing. "l ' was ; glad I did, too, for I no
sooner was the glass broken than six
women who had been trapped Inside
came crawling out. They would have
been drowned had I not happened to
break the window." : i ; f
.-Many pitiful eases to which she was
a witness were detailed by Mrs. Taylor.
Through It all, - however, the cltisene ef
Pueblo displayed a remarkable spirit,
she declared. Private homes were every
where thrown open and the people, for?
getting their losses, worked to save one
another. " , ,

After three' months in the White

is not a dynamo. He will not, during

Nothing has transpired to data to conr

to do, and his concern lest he may not
do, what is right to . all parties con,
cerned. And tt is this desire to "cheat"
no one. a desire to play. fair all ereund
that leads to the prediction - that he
will not do anything fiery or sensational,
nothing that might "hurt someone dur
ing his term of office.
HAS BIO CALLIVQ LIST '
It Is a wall known fact to Washington
observers that Harding will see almost
anyone Who wishes to see him. Jt Is
estimated by White House attaches that,
since he took office, he has shaken
hands with at least JD.OOO callers and
visited, by special - appointment, with
hundreds of others. His daily calling
list is greater, for example, than the
average weekly appointment calendar
of his predecessor,
ft also , is a fact that when a man
has five minutes with Harding, the ap
pointment may be and frequently is
extended Indefinitely,, either because the
president la unusually interested in what
his sailer may have to say or that he
does not wish to hurt him by bringing
the appointment to an abrupt termina
tion. A friend : of the president tells
the story that on one occasion Harding
listened for aa hour to a caller -who
quoted passage after passage from the
Biol to prove that the League of Na
tions was unrighteous.. Not that Hard
ing agreed with the views ef his visiter,
but was interested in the novelty, . 5
Another example of the president's
human nature side Js found la hia social
life; He nd Mrs, Harding thoroughly
enjoy little .functions, they have given
and enter into them as participants and
oat as host- and ; hostess- Throughout
Washington there has been much earn
moot caused by the "homey" atmosphere
sf the White House gatherings. ;
And, in the evenings, after the dinner
hour, one may see the exeeqtive couple
frequently leaving the White House for
a social visit on their friends about (he
