SIMS AGAIN GETS IN SPOTLIGHT BT BELITTLING NAVY Rear Admiral Says British Fleet Kept Americans From Learning to Speak German. FLAYS NAVAL AGREEMENT Former Secretary of War Denies Assertions in Regard to War Army. By United Press NEW YORK, Jan. 15. —The Washington naval agreement gives Britain and Japan greater sea power than the United States, according to Rear Admiral W. S. Sims. Speaking at Grace Methodist Episcopal Church, Sims asserted that American "theoretically" rangs below Britain and Japan because those nations have guns of heavier calibre. This, he declared, nullified the 5-5-3 tonnage ratio. Furthermore, according to Sims, the Washington agreement is unimportant, because it does not control the building and arming of air fleets, which will figure largely in the next war.

“If it had not been for the British grand fleet keeping the German fleet off the high seas, you Americans would be learning to speak German today,” he said. BAKER DENIES SIMS’ ASSERTIONS By United Press CLEVELAND, Jan. 15. —Assertions by Admiral W. S. Sims that the orders at the outbreak of the World War “to go slow with the Navy and do nothing with the Army” were denied here today by Newton D. Baker, former Secretary of War. “I never heard of any such order," Baker said. "Certainly nothing like it emanated from the War Department. I do not know what Admiral Sims may have on his mind in making such a statement.”

No need to take salt waters and powders that dry up the blood; coal-tar drugs in candy form that produce skin eruptions, or calomel that salivates. These'dnigs are “heroic measures”, over-effective, weakening and griping.
