The Department received hide last
week from private ahlp builder for the
construction of three vessels and de
clared the blda exresalvr. Mr. Daniels
believes ttiat with the Government buy

navy yardn can do the work much
cheaper.
Theao were the blda of the private
builders for the two ehipa; New York

Aa tfhe limit of the eutliorliing act la

Daniels baa obtained from three of the
navy yard estimates of what they could
build the ships for with the (lovernment
buying- the steel direct from 4he mak

The Philadelphia navy yard's esti
mate does not Include the several hun
dred thousand dollars which would havej
to be expended In changing the con
struction plant to permit building a bat
tleship there. It being contended that
Mraec changes would be of a permanent
character The Mare Inland estimate
Includes the cost of such changes.
Rending receipt of bids from the steel
makers Secretary Daniels Is withholding
action on (kg blda recently opened for
armor plate. Justifying his belief that
the Oovernment navy yards can con
struct the vessels cheaper. Secretary
Daniels said :
"Advocates of navy yard corssuruction
are pointing to the fact that the navy
yards' final coata of new construction
have been mostly below rather than
above the original estimates. It Is
claimed that during the last four years
Mare Island has completed new work
amounting- to a total cost of 31,114.(00,
while the estimates were $3. 613.000. the
savins; over estimates being 1448.400.
"A notable case was that f the two
river gunboats for service in China, com
pleted about a year ago. The limit of
coat for one boat was IJ15.000. and ths
only private bid was from a Pacific
coast firm amounting to 1212. son. or
practically the limit of oust The De
partment refused to accept thla figure
and the private firm finally reduced lta
rice to 3194.000 aa a rock bottom
Sgure.
"The Mare Island yard estimate waa
3140,764 each, and the award was finally
given to Mare Island with the expecta
tion of Department officials that the yard
would overrun this figure. The final
cost, however, waa lllttlll a boat, or

Nonwicn. Conn., Nov. S3. tn an ad
dress mads public hero to-day on "tttts
demand for military education" Presi
dent Hartley of Yale for the first time
since the start of the war oame out
strongly far a defence programme and
advocated not only Increases In the
army and navy, but a national pre
paredness In ths polltksal and moral
sense. He said1 that after the war trie
United States Is In danger of being at
tacked by any nation wrtloh she may
have offended.
"One of ths most disturbing effects
of ths Burrgiean war to the Intelligent
American cltlsen la that it haa upset
the political philosophy," he said.
"Two years ago most of us believed
that our American policy could be based
on ths expectation of permanent peace
between us and our civilised neighbors.
Home of us regarded the Hague Confer
ence as likely to develop Into a means
of almost entirely preventing war.
Nsarly all of us believed that Interna
tional law had made such progress that
the treaty rights of neutrals would be
respected and that war Itself would be
conducted with a humane regard fof
the Interests of non-combatants ; and
that In any event America was so far
remote from Kurnpe and Asia that our
navy could ksep us secure from attack.
Jlasme Powerless.
"Hut In the course of the last year
and a half we have seen that Ota irav
ohtnsry provided by the Hague ouufsi
snos was worthless in a crisis, (hat
treaties were not held sacred when they
conflicted with belligerent Interests, that
waa in the twentieth century was con
ducted with almost savage iMsregard of
the welfare of non-combatants and that
In the faoe of modern scientific progress
tho ocean furnished no such safeguard
to ourselves as wo had fondly assumed.
"In view of these facts nearly every
on within reach of the Atlantic ssav
board is recognizing the need of in
creased means of national defencm. Many
of those who two years H4ro opposed an
Increase of our standing army and navy
now recognise this us a necessary means
of self-nrotectloiL
"Hut It Is doubtful whether an In
crease of our etanding army and navy,
however desirable In Itself, will solve the
problem. It would make us safe against
sudden onslaught for the moment. It
would not save us after the war Is over.
History gives no warrant fur the belief
that at ths close of the present war the
lielllgerent nations will be so tired with
fighting that they will be unwillliMr to
wage another war for many years to
come. After this war Is over we are
In danger of being attacked by any
nation whom we have offended.
"The history of Prance In 1870 shows
how s well trained standing army of
moderate site can have all Its opera
tions paralysed If Its movements are
governed by politicians or by a people
who know little of military conditions.
We need more than an army. We need
public understanding of the use and
management of an army.
Socialism Wants To Mack.
"Aa long as Socialism represents an
effort on the part of different groups
and classes to get everything they could
out of the State and give aa little as
possible, the socialistic Stats has no re
semblance to the orderly family. It la
st best a family of spoiled children.
"Only one nattoti appears to have
avoided this mlSOOnOSPtlOtl of Socialism,
and that 1m Germany. The cause for
this Is somewhat curious. When Napo
leon In 1807 tried to reduce Prussia to
a state of powerlessness he prescribed
as one of the conditions of peace that the
army ahould never asaeaaal - h. t .
small figure.
"In order to have a sufficient number
of trained soldiers In reserve to meat an
emergency, the Prussian statesmen were
obliged to adopt a plan of short service,
by which men went Into the army for a
brief time, and as soon as they were
"" ssvw piaos to others. Out of this

COURTS-MARTIAL VEX DANIELS.
Publicity aad Changes Demanded
After Utile's Aeejaltlal.
Washington. Nov. 23. Plans for
radical changss In tho navy's court
martial aystem and the addition of fresh
fuel to the personal controversy between
Secretary Daniels and Rear Admiral
Klske, retired, were aftermaths to-day of
the court-martial s acquittal of Rear Ad-
! mlral Kittle, retire.!.
The verdict exonerating Admiral Little
of neglect of duty In accepting the sub
marine K-2 following that exonerating
Lieut. Oak of responsibility for tha
boiler explosion on the San Diego was
declared by Mr. Daniels to-day to show
necessity for reforming court-martial
proceedings. He proposes that hereafter
court-martial officials must publicly show
how they voted to fix responsibility for
what the Department contends are mis
carriages of justice. Moth the Little and
oak verdicts were disapproved.
"I do not believe that you are aware
that there has been organised a com
pany of Clinton Cadets' In the Ds Witt
Clinton High School." wrote David
Levin of til Bitter place, The Bronx, a
pupil in that school, In a letter to Mayor
MRchel, received yesterday, asking If
ths city would supply ths cadets with
uniforms or give the boys 11.316 so they
could uniform themselves.
"Ths company la to consist of 300
pupils under a drlllmastsr which we hops
to secure from the Government," the
letter continued. "We have already re
cevled the promise of a rifle and 100
rounds of ammunition for each boy, but
what Is most Important and what ws
have not got ars ths uniforms."
As soon as the letter of the young
patriot had been digested at ths Mayor's
office the announcement waa mads that
of course the city could not give the
uniforms nor ths money with which to
4uy them. Inquirers turned to Francis
H. J. Paul, principal of the De Witt
Clinton High School, for Information
concerning the 'Clinton Cadets" and he
promptly replied that there wasn't any.
He also said that young Levin wasn't
authorised to write such a letter to the
Mayor.
"Some of the boys In the high school
have been urging the formation of a
cadet corps for some time," Principal
Paul said. "We didn't want to prohibit
them and neither did we want to en
courage them. We try to sympathise
with the boys, and wishing to give them
a fair hearing, I appointed a committee
of men teachers having knowledge of
the problem, borne were opposed to the
military Idea and some were not. The
boys were told of the difficulties of get
ting a drill master. The suggestion was
mads that If any of ths boys, aa Indi
viduals, wanted to go Into some boys'
summer camp during vacation prelim
inary drilling might be permissible That
was In May last, and since then we have
tried to put ths soft pedsl on the boys.
"I knew nothing about the Levin boy's
letter until this afternoon I really do
not think the boys sre mllltarlstlcslly
in. lined, but I do think that the boy
who wrote the letter tn the Mayor did
so In 'his enthusiasm."
When Thomas W. Churchill, president
of tile Hoard of Education, was told
about young Levin's teuuest for unl-J
form money, he gsld he couldn t pass
Judgment on the mstter without first
Investigating. He was sure, however,
that he la oppoeed to militarism In the
public schools."
Some time to-day Principal Paul la
going to have a serious talk with David
Isrvin about the ethics of writing un
authorised communications to ths city's
chief executive.

B. Parker, speaking to-night at a mass
masting In the High School under the au
spices of ths National Security league,
attacked Bryan's peace at any price
policy In scathing terms. Judgw Parker
said :
"The President, a man of peace from
his youth up. charged with the weighty
responsibility of steering ths Ship of
state safely through turbulent Interna
tional seas, has found out that the only
way to Insure our peace against war Is
to make adequate preparation not for
war, but for the defence of our country
and every part of it This conclusion
reached, he presented the matter to the
whole people, as he waa In duty bound
to do.
"Therefore ths most distinguished ad
vocate of himself, for himself and by
himself, of hla generation haa constituted
himself the leader of the opposition to
this movement to Insure the young men
of this and later generations against
the sad fate now befalling the young
men of Europe. Through the Issue of
the press succeeding the one containing
the President's speech on the subject
he secured the position of critic extraor
dinary of his former chief.
MHe Tieed not have Jumped Into the
ring with such unseemlng haste, for no
one else covered the task. Indeed. It Is one
for which the doughty champion of free
coinage of sliver at the ratio of 1 to 1.
without regard to any other nation on
earth. Is best equipped. Kor the folly
of otie contention can only be equalled
by ths folly of ths other. 'Leave your
coast defenceless' Is one of his appeals
lest ws be tempted by our very strength
to go abroad to fight
"What nonsense ! No nation ever
goes abroad to fight without the expecta
tion of gain.
"He also urges that If the nation will
hut follow In the paths of righteousness
and cultivate a Christian spirit ws shall
secure the needed Insurance against war
without spending our money. China
seems to have given such an experiment
a fair trial. Her people heeded leaders
who said, "Follow In the paths of right
eousness and cultivate the spirit of Con
fucius and all will c well.' Hut all did
not go well, as we all know. Russia
took a choice morsel of her territory.
QallllSIIJ another . Japan followed suit.
Then Japan, with less than one-seventh
of China's population snd wealth, im
posed upon her a treaty which she feebly
and vainly protested egsint because she
could not resist."

avenue, and till 4 o'closk in the after
noon they were hurrying yes, actually
hurrying to ths telegraph offices with
the messages as fast aa a score of

Ths telegrams ware sent to suffrage

their appeal for definite artlon toward
calling a congress of neutral nations for
