Navy Was Prepared Daniels Tells (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, May 15 Secretary Daniels today attacked Rear Admiral Sims charge that the navy department lacked plans and otherwise was unprepared for war. The charge was "unfounded and wanton," he told the senate committee which is investigating the Sims and Daniels' row, and testimony of Rear Admiral Badger and other members of the general board had proven such statements unfounded. Mr. Daniels explained in detail the organization and operation of the general board, to show that for years before the war the board was engaged in preparing and revising plans for naval battle in the Atlantic. Admiral Dewey had studied the situation from the outbreak of the European war, and on March 15, 1915, had forwarded a statement of plane necessary to put the department in readiness for war, Mr. Daniels said, which was at once approved by him. The navy department followed the Dewey outline as "far as congress' appropriations would permit," Mr. Daniels declared. Declaring that several witnesses "having no first-hand knowlerge of the navy department's part in the world war," had "attempted to show by going back as far as 1913, that the navy before the war failed in preparation because the secretary and congress did not follow their advice in 1913 and 1914," Mr. Daniels reviewed at length his administration and his recommendations to congress from 1913 on. Incidentally, he told the committee Williams to Attend U. S. Teacher's Conference; Rural Condition Serioas, He Says C. O. Williams, county superintendent, and chairman of the committee on rural schools, of the State Teach ers association, has been appointed to represent the Indiana state board of education, of which he is also a member, at the National Citizens' conference on education in Washington, D. C, May 19, 20 and 21. Mr. Williams will probably leave Tuesday. Charles Jordan, of the Richmond .school board, will also attend. Dr. Robert L. Kelly, executive secretary of the Interchurch World MovePnient and former president of Earlham college, is to be on the conference program. "There is no doubt that the rural school situation in Indiana is vastly better than that in many states," said Superintendent Williams Saturday. "At the same time we have a situation here which must be coped with Immediately. Nobody Wants to Teach "Colleges throughout the country are graduating big snior classes, but very few of their numbers are going Into the teaching profession. The normal schools are not full. Unless we can introduce interests into the profession in the form of better wages, office tenure, etc. we are going to find ourselves without even a minimum number of teachers. "In Wayne county we are going to have to resort to the consolidated school and hack service. That is cer(thg whole problem, for there must be tain, but consolidation does not solve enough teachers for the children on hand, whether they are taught in a rural school or a city consolidated building."

The cause of the breakdown of the transportation system is traced to the period when the roads were under government control. Rolling stock was used to capacity, it is said. New equipment was not purchased. Locomotives and cars were not repaired. Wornout rails were not replaced. Necessary extensions were not made. Heavy Traffic Helped."
