CLE SAM'S PRIVATE 8CH00L
By F. A. CONNOLLY
(United Preps Staff Correspondent)
WASHINGTON, D. C, Aug. 26.
Secretary of the Navy Daniels isnt too
proud to listen to suggestions for im
proving Uncle Sam's private school i
for naval officers at Annapolis. Thej
institution is being run on a creditable ;
plan at present, the navy department
contends, but any idea worth while"
will receive Mr. Daniel's due consider
ation. All the late scandal there
wouldn't be scandal, it is argued, it
tho school did not have a good system
of government and a fair reputation to
uphold.
The late "gouging revelations," how
ever, have shown there is room for im
provement. So the secretary, realiz
that his Is not the only academy in the
country, has been trying to find out
how the others are run.. There are at
least fifty other educational establish
ments where young men are governed
by stringent systems. Now the head
of the navy figures that in fifty such
places there must be some dlfferencea
in regulations and discipline. If any
of them havo better than Uncle Sam,
ho wants to Incorporate them into hla
own. Secretary Daniels baa written
to the. presidents of these schools, ask
ing concerning the rules and practices
observed in their Institutions.
The secretary expects these queries
to be answered In the course of time,
and is In no hurry- about them. When
he gets them all In he will look them
over and pick out the Ideaa that he
can use. He will weave the heat of
those that' he can Into the Annapolla
system and those that he can't he. laj
