To the Editor: You are riKht on Sims. Hut why didn't you t'o after him when he said Keey. Daniels and Prest. Wilson werw murderers, they pro- 1 luugc-d the war half a ycur by nut tlolriK Just what Admiral Sims of Canada told them to do. He ought to been eourtniartialed then. June 5, P. MUKI'HY, Ashland Route. THE jMAIL-TRIBUXK made mi ciniinieiit on what Admiral Kims said, but "ii his snyiiif; anything nt such a time, nt such a place, .mil regard in k such a subject. If the latest reports of his speech are correct, there is little to criticise, as far as his denunciation of Ameri can Sinn Feiuers, hyphenates and general trouble makers are con cerned. On such a stand lie will find ample support in America. But for an admiral in the American navy to enter the political arena for Ireland or against Ireland, at the present time was to say the least, indiscreet. I'olities, domestic or international, have no place i'l the army or navy. There is a strict rule in both the war and navy departments against it. Admiral Sims may have been quite riKht i" everything he said, but absolutely wronjr, in saying it. . . '';''' So in regard .to-the Admiral's testimony before the congressional committee. lie talked too much. When he told of "the lack of pre paredness in J.lie navy, he was on solid ground, but when he went out of his way to attack ollicials in the administration, he entered tho lealm of partisan politics, where he hud no right to be. As we said before, what Admiral Sims needs is a muffler. He works too much on tho cut-out. As a politician he would be admir able, for the cementing of Kiigland and American friendship is in our opinion a political necessity, but as a high official in the Ameri can navy, this "capacity is a serious detriment, and might lead to se rious consequences. One can imagine what the situation would be if a British admiral should bo given a banquet at N'ew York and proceed to condemn or favor Japanese exclusion on the Pacific coast. He might be quite right in his opinions, he might correctly represent the opinions of his government, but he would he recalled to London more quickly llian Admiral Sims has 'been recalled, and he would discard his uniform or lis political opinions very promptly. PI AUTO WEARINESS. MY car is always on the blink, it's conduct's always coarse and raw; it would have driven me to drink, long since, but for ihc Volstead law. Oil vernal morning, bright and, cool, I go rejoicing for a spin; ami in the dusk a farmer's mule is hired to haul my tumbril in. The grim mechanics ply. their trade, and. mend the divers busted parts, and then collect what coin I've made, and blow it in the clanging marts. And evermore I hear my friends tell auto yarns, in joyous notes; oh, nothing ever breaks or bends about the other fellows' boats! Year after year they howl along and cost no money for repairs and nothing's ever going wrong, no sparkplug misses unawares. They climb up hills, tho, owners say, without a knock or kindred sound; and I get iiijiek on every brne, in every mmlhule I am drowned. It is the othef fel low's bus that never gets its water warm, that ambles forth with out a fuss its many wonders to perform. It is the other fellow's van that's better now than when 'twas new; I have the only also ran that ever made a driver blue. But can it be the other guys, who brag in such a lofty tone, are handing me denatured lies have they some troubles of their own? Behind the mugs that bravely shine are there a lot of carking cares? Are other boats us bad as mine, and break their owners for repairs? MEXICAN OIL IS NOT DEPLETED MEXICO CITY", Juno IT.
