SIMS POINTS (Continued from Page One) pletely I was in the dark," the ad miral said, "I received information from both the French and British naval authorities concerning the con vov before I was officially informed of it by the department." Based on Misinformation Referring to a message from Secre tary Daniels dated June 6, 191 1, mark ed "very confidential' and containing directions for the protection of the convoy by destroyers, Admiral Sims said it "would be impossible to find a more striking example of the department's insistance upon making decisions based upon complete misin- ' formation". "The whole scheme of troop convoy, outlined in this message, showed a complete ignorance and disregard of convoy methods and of war experience I in the submarine danger zone," he con tinued. In response to his protests, the admiral said he received a reply that the "department recognizes the soundness of your recommendations," but because of the "present sensitive public opinion considers it essential that the escort orders for the first convoy already issued, be executed by American destroyers." The admiral had recommended, he testified, that the convoys be protected by whatever allied escorts were available. There was no question at any time. Admiral Sims said, as to whether troops should get the very best protection available. Gave Us Protection "Throughout the war," he added, "American troops received more protection than the allies were able to give their own troops on the high seas." On July 4, 1917, Admiral Sims said I he received a cable from Secretary j Daniels congratulating him on the ! successful escort of the convoy. "I j wish to make it perfectly clear that I jhave no criticism to make of the com1 mander of the troop convoys," he said. "Such confusion and difficulties as arose were due to orders and plans given him by the navy department." That the department realized the inadequacy and danger of the arrangements made for the first convoys wa3 demonstrated, the admiral asserted, by the fact that even before the ships sailed he was asked to submit recommendations for future use and these recommendations were afterward adopted in their entirety. Later, however, Admiral Sims said, the department again complicated matters by buying up all available space In passenger ships and sending troops abroad without giving allied officials advance notice. Expressed Complete Accord Admiral Sims expressed complete HEADQUARTERS FOR STYLE AND ECONOMY

accord with Secretary Daniels' statement In a cable to him that "everything is secondary to having a sufficient number (of escorting destroyers) to insure protection to American troops." but declared that the department by going over his head time after time, made it impossible for him

TURKEY, REPORTED WASHINGTON, March 15. The ascendency to power of the old pro-Ger-man Nationalist party in Turkey, which has resulted In the present ' t..i.:v. ii. j..jv,j first time in confidential reports re ceived here from Constantinople by Prof. Der Hagopian, of the Armenian national delegation to the peace conference. Copies of the reports have been submitted to the State Department. The Nationalist party was supposed to have been crushed by operation of the arimistice terms, but its present movement, under leadership of Mustapha Kernel, famous defender of the Dardanelles, is described as rivalling that of the "committee of union and progress," which fn 1908 dethroned Sultain Abdul Hamid and proceeded to the systematic repression of alien races in the Ottoman empire. Propaganda Began Early. According to reports from Constantinople, reorganization of the Nation alists was started immediately after signing of the armistice, Mustapha being assisted by Enver Pasha, Talaat Pasha and others among the "Young Turks" who were supposed to have fled to Germany after Turkey surrendered. The party began its activities outside the immediate sphere of the government in Constantinople and had as its objects reconquering of territory of the empire held by the allies, the preservation of all of the old Ottoman empire north of a line drawn from Alexandretta to Mossul, along Northern Arabia, and extermination of the non-Moslem population of the empir To bring about these ends, the ..- ports declare, there was begun organization of a vast pan-Islamic movement among Afghans, Persians and Tartars in an effort to embarrass the occidental powers in possession of 1 Moslem colonies. Co-operation with the Russian Bolsheviki also was plr.nned. Tire Sale This mz&s- Week Tires have advanced from 20 to 40.
