Expert Declares. f New York, Sept 2.-A scathing criti cism of the United States navy U con tained In the report. Issued today, of John Hays Hammond. Jr., who repre sented the conference committee on na tional preparedness at the governors" conference In Boston. Hammond's chief complaint ! that the American warship are only half manned and have not enough officers to handle them properly In time of war. He says: "I had the privilege of witnessing, aboard the Wyoming, the Impressive na val review ot part of the North Atlantic Fleet. "The to-pedo boats of the United States, instead of having the four to six offi cers necessary, had only two officers. Their crews consisted of only about half the necessarv number of men. In case of sudden national emergency these ves-j sels could not be properly handled to per form the functions tor which they are designed. "The torpedo craft have a maximum speed of twenty-eight knots. A large number of vessels of the same class In the British and German navies have speeds of from thirty-three to thirty-six knots an hour. "Leading the torpedo flotilla came the Birmingham, a sad reminder that we have only three light cruisers of consid erable speed, and these vessels when comrared to the numerous vessels of Ma tvnn In the British and German na vies would present a sorry contrast In their relatively low speed and weak armament. "Today what few torpedo boats we possess "would be easily swept from the seas by the fast cruisers of the enemy possessing speeds far greater to our destroyers and torpedo craft. "A few minutes later ten of otr cruisers steamed past. To those inter ested In naval development It was obvious that only four out of the ten ships would make a real showing under Tnnrtrrn battle conditions. .These ves sels also were only about half manned. "Tho speed of the best of these vessels Is four knots less than the Bluecher, whose Inferiority of speed spelled her destruction In the naval action In the North Sea. "We should have twenty-one battle ships to protect our Atlantic coast; we have only seventeen ships In commission. Four are useless to the nation as theie are not enough men even to run them. "With every resource tapped, we are 30.000 men short In our navy. We have 1.9C0 officers of the line. We must have fl,400 more. "If the navy is inadequate it is pri marily the fault of the people and not of any legislative or official branch of government. Our officials are all awake to the danger of our naval impotence. Let us hope that the people will be back of Mr. Daniels In his patriotic work in strengthening our most Important means of defense."
