NEEDS AT LEAST 1.000 NEW OFFICERS And 20,000 More Sailors Neces sary to Put Existing Vessels in Fighting Trim. ?Frorn T>- Till.an? Ilurrtu ! Washington, Aug. .to. At least 1.000 mor>' ofleera ami 10,000 additional men ' nre needed to put the present ships of the navy on a war footing, according to [ the estimate of naval expert?. It is Itated that not only are ;.early all of the ships undermanned, but under the present promotion rules ensigns are performing -the duties of lieutenants, lieutenants are acting as lieutenant commamlers, and so on all the way up. Shortage of officers is ?o great that an officer on sick leave means a ga.? in the line which cannot be filled. There I is actually not a detached officer in the navy who can be used to fill a tern-1 porary vacancy. N'aval officers are seri? ously concerned over the situation. The personnel now available is just sufficient, by utilizing all the officers in shore stations, to man most of the ships of the navy on a peace basis. In I case of war it would be necessary, in ?tead of increasing the naval forces by the purchase and requisition of private merchant vess-ls. as is commonly done, to lay up part of .he present force to have enough men to fill the comple? ments of the other ship.?. More Men the First Need. Navy Department experts insift th^r the first need of the navy is more men. They argue that there is no use building dreadnoughts until enough men are obtained to at least man the ,ps. It i4 pointed out that the United is at a peculiar disadvantage among the majo?- naval powers of* the ? ?rorld in thnt it has no merchant, marine from which to draft reserve officers and teamen. In the enormou? merchant flee! of the British Umpire the ofllcen are in great par* reierve n of th? navj. and are a ready source of material in time of v.a.r. it - -'atc'l that i:i 'he present war* thou? sands of oMeeri have been taken for the navy from the merchant fleets, an?i the same rule hold 'rue of the other European pe i It is believed by the experts that the United States will never solve in ?ate fashion the problem of a reserve until a merchant marine ' cen created commensurate with the maritime importaace or TTie natioi As the measures necessary for th creation of u merchant fleet cannot h propos?'d by the Navy Department, how ever, nothing can be done bv the d? pertinent except to hope that Cor gres? will take action. Many of the high officials of th department are hopeful that S.-cretar Daniels will ask for an enlargemen of the Naval Academy at Annapolis t enable training at least double th number of midshipmen that can neu he accommodated, l.'nless this is don? it is feared the danger will beCom acute next year, when eighteen ne\ submarines, not to mention severs other new vessels, will be placed n commission. Naval Keserve Plans. The creation of a naval reserve ha held the attention of the Navy Depart ment since last October, when Assist ant Secretary Roosevelt began workmj out a plan for mobilizing private citi zens who have had nautical experience The Assistant Secretary's plan alse provides for placing all former enlister men on the reserve list. The ???.vice is to he entirely volun ?ary. Every man who has had sea ex perienci of any kind, whether on * merchantman or a motor boat, will b? called on to enroll himself, and will b? . il a year as recompense for this willingness to serve in the I States Navy in the event of war. While II |i not believed that many of the reservists would be of great value on n battleship, it is thought they would be of service on colliers, fenders and other auxiliary ships. Former < ? men would be available for the fighting ?hips. Mr. Roosevelt has compiled a mass of itatiltici which ferd to show that n reserve of 50,000 men, if necessary, could be created at an annual expense to the government of about $75,000. The reservists will be allowed the privi? lege of wearing a distinctive badge. Trained Experts Ready to Aid Defence Plans Washington, Aug. SO.

The sunny faces of the people as they bought told us thir?. Their words to the salesmen (overheard by the advertising wrir ?ers, who fairly live with the merchandise) told us. We have helped to make many new homes. That is a world of pleasure in itself. We have helped to make old homes newer and better. And that is well worth while. We have brought money out of its hoarding place and put it to useful work- bringing pleasure to the owner and work to .the furniture maker?and that is good for the whole country. And now as a farewell and "good-will-thank ; you" we are doubling the purchasers' money in these half-price offerings. Last Year the Last Day Was the Biggest Day of the Sale Folks who put off coming, folks who had just returned to th?- ?itv. folks passing through the city?folks from near and far?all came in and were courteously and satisfactorily waited on. notwithstanding the great crowd. Having in mind the recollection of this last day of last year, we have prepared for an emergency today? ?plenty of furniture in the half-price group. ?plenty of variety in the entire general stocks, ?plenty of salesmen and helpers to make ? things run smoothly and happily.
