Secretary Daniels Explains
to Committee Need of Fuel
For Battleships
Washington, J'eb. 9. Before the sen
ate public lands committee today, Sec
retary of the Navy Daniels expressed
his opposition to any legislation that
would permit opentors to remain on

legal rights.
"As we have begun to build oil
burning battleships," he said, "our
reserve should be held strictly intact.
If bills before congress pass, our sup
plies in 20 years will be so depleted
that the navy will be forced to rely on
priv.Ue concerns at prevailing high
prices."
The secretary opposed the Myers bill
permitting the leasijig of oil land with
in the reserves.
Senator Phelan, of California, sug
gested that the government discontinue
building oil burners, and said that ex
perts had told him the visible supply
of oil would not last a quarter of a
I century. Daniels retorted that if the
naval reserves were not exploited they
would not last a decade.
