E
ever, it is unthinkable, that Japan
will withdraw her forces from Si

KcemH to ho to dispatch half a divis
ion of truops and reinforcing guards
to the important centers where the
ailway is necessary in maintaining
tho peace of eastern Siberia. With
these points safeguarded Japan can
follow tho trend of events and popu

brought about, she added in her talk
on "the ethics of dress." by the adop
tion of a standardized costume.
"Man," Miss Johnson said, "can
dress properly and becomingly on a
limited number of suits. His reason
ing seems to be that beautv unadorn
ed is adorned the most. His clothes
arc far from beautiful."
Women would become less conspic
uous ami m 6 re impressive bv wearing
standard dress, she declared, for
"the active, healthy woman creates
a. spiritual impression bv simplifying
her dress and thus enhancing her fa
cial beautv, while her less advanced
sister (dings to the older dress
forms."

AGAINST AND FOR DANIELS
(Continued from Page Ono)
Chairman Dale said there wns no
record that Commander P. W. Foote.
now personal aid to Secretary Dan
iels, had been recommended bv anv
officer for a decoration, although the
secretary awarded him a distinguish
ed service medal. Admiral Mavo re
plied that, he had approved a recom
mendation by Admiral (Heaves, com
manding Ihc cruiser and transport
force, that Foote be awarded a distiu.l
guislied service medal.
Admiral Mavo said he had written
Secretary Daniels because he felt
there had not. been a sufficient reali
zation of the value of staff duties
that this might cause officers to
avoid staff assignments.
"There has been a popular idea."
he said, "(hat the chief function of
the staff is to carry out orders."
Agrees With Sims
Senator 1 'it t man, democrat, Neva
da, asked if Admiral U:vo believed
there should he a policy that officers
who lost ships should lie honored.
Such a policy would not be a food
thing for the service. Admiral Mavo
said, but added that in eases where
the officer's conduct during and af
ter the sinking, as in the eases of
Captain Christv of the cruiser San
Diego ami Commander Foote of the
transport President Lincoln, it should
eitlille him to high distinction. ln
dcr ordinary circunislanccs, he added,
nn officer who lost his ship was, in
nil navies, eourtmartialed.
When Hear Admiral Mavo con
cluded his tesliuionv. the committee
adjourned until tomorrow. Ma ior
(ieneral Harnett, commander of the
marine corns, will be called then.
