This refusal was not due to a, desire of occupa tion or to restrict the Polish people's rights of. self-determination, but ex clusively because of the continuance of the war on the other fronts and the unsettled internal conditions in Russoa, we eonld not evacuate these territories without endangering our military Interests. "Ve hope with good will on the Russian side all these questions may be successfully arranged, because the monarchy is inspired by no self ish aim." In -conclusion.

I understanil that reorganizations by - legislation are to be proposed I have not been consulted about tbem and have learned of them only at second hand but. their proposal fame after ef fective measures of ; reorganisation had been thoughtfully and maturely perfected, ad inasmuch as - these measures have been the result of ex perience, they are much more likely than any other to be effective, if the congress will but remove the fewf stautory obstacles of rigid depart mental organization which stands in their way. Baker's Ability Upheld, The legislative proposals I have heared of would involve long addi tional delays and turn our experience Into mere lost motion. My associa tion and constant conference with the secretary of war have taught me to regard him as one of the ablest public officials f have ever known. The country will soon learn whether he or bis critics understand the busi ness In hand.,- ' "To add. as Senator Chamberlain did, that there is inefficiency In ev ery department and bureau of the government, is to show such ignor ance of actual conditions as to make i is impossible to attach any Impor-1 tance to his statement. I am bound to infer that' the. statement sprang out of opposition to the administra tion's whole policy "rather tbaa out of any serious intention to reform Its practice." - flnXhis reply Senator Chamberlain said! , ; .

I pointed out that from Bunker Hill to the present time we had had no military organization or policy, The press report of my ad dress was correct. But my argument was directed to the military estab lishment and ,not to - other depart ments of the government, although It was broad enough to be subject tq, that Interpretation. Bat those hear ing It knew I referred merely to the military establishment and that the senate military eommittee had un dertaken, through the bills for a war cabinet, and a director of munitions to work, out changes in the establishment.'--.- - ' ' ' '" ' "I explained that these bills were not administration measures. I did not misrepresent them. J "Secretary Baker's efforts to bet ter his organization have my utmost approval.- He has made much Im provement. But the inherent weak ness of his reorganization Is that no body between the army and the pres ident has legal authority. There is the council of national defense, the war Industries board and the clear ance commlttee-all purely volun tary organizations between - the president and the army. The war cabinet and director of the muni tions would be created by law with definite legal powers and 'duties, re spectively, to map out and direct war policies and to have charge of war supplies. By this plan we would substitute a strong for the onlv weak link In the chain of organization. V People's Will to Oaide. "I regret-very much that the ad ministration ,ls not with me. But I am acting under my oath and will have the approval of my own con science even If not of the adminis trator "The people are entitled to be let Into the committee's confidence. If the people do not want it. that - will be all right. It's their war." Tonight the president had a con ference with Senator Martlne, Dent ocratic floor leader, several other senators and gate them his opinion about Senator Chamberlain's bill. It is understood there was a general discussion of congressional Investi gations ' and criticism of executive departments. The first test of strength on the committee proposals probably will eome Thursday when. Senator Chamberlain- announced, he would demand reference of the war cabinet bill to his committee. Sen ator Swanson. acting chairman of the naval committee, will oppose the motion on the ground that the naval committee should be consulted be fore the bill Is brought before the senate. 5 Chairman Chamberlain said to night that he would like for the measures to lie over for several days until their provisions and design be come better understood. Hearings on the committee's investigation will be resumed tomorrow.
