COURT PROBES SHIFTING OF U.S. OFFICER

Investigate Removal of Admiral Fletelier From Paris Command. Ily Amk i.iied 1'rt'ss : WASHINGTON. March 23. Investigation of the reasons for the removal of Hear Admiral William 1. Fletelier from command of the American naval bae at .Brest was bef-uri Thursday before naval court of inquiry. Counsel for Rrar Admiral Sims who removed Admiral Fletelier, insisted that, the court consider a request that Sec'y Daniels enlarge the scope of the inquiry to cover all circumstances surrounding the han dling of American essels in French ! waters. Sec'y Daniels in a letter refused to modify bis Instructions to the court on the -round that they covered a sweeping investigation as originally drawn. Milk Testimony. Dittle testimony was introduced at the tirst session, most of it being docutnentary. In a letter to Sec'y Daniels', Admiral Sims denied that be removed Admiral Fletcher because of the h:s of transport Antilles, declaring that be had reached that decision some, time' before when he had learned that on tw occasions transports were permitted to start back without adequate convoy. The sinking of the Aniilles. Admiral Sims wrote, led him to d--( ide, however, that Admiral Fletcher should have no European command. No SlH-e-ifit Rules. Testifying in his own behalf, Admira! Fletcher, who requested that the court be convened, charged that at no time did Admiral Sims in Iiis o;ders lay down specific rules as to convoy formations and the minimum protection that should be accorded vessels of the French coast. The first direction he received as t. this, lie said, was given verbally and in a "very general way" by laeut. Commander Daniels, Admiral Sims' aide, when he visited Brest in August, 1317. Despite the difficulty r,f adequately protecting troops and supply transports with the iuaail force of destroyers and yachts at Tils dispal. the admiral said, tills force ha.l been used to the best possible advantage.

An Unwilling Hero Sheriff Louis B. Duck, Cast for the Leading Role of an Interesting Thriller, Modestly Reneges.

Some of Sheriff Louis IL Duck's frit nds appear to have been taking liberties with the truth. Tint is. if you beliee the .sheriff. And, after all, why shouldn't you? Mr. Duck is nothing if not a modest man, so h'-'s deprecating the congratulations that have resulted. This is how it all came about. Thursday the story was given quite extensive circulation that an attempted jail delivery iu which two of the most hardened criminals now in the county bastille used saws, had been frustrate.!. Sheriff Duck was cast as the hero of the tale, with his deputies anonymously mentined. as assistants. Steven ILirtak, awaiting trial fot- murder, and (Hen McDonald, already convicted of highway robbery, were the villains. Fartak and MsDonald, so the slory went, had removed several rivets from the door of their cell and were sawing through some of the bat s. The sheriff's friends could only conjecture how far a.way Rartak and McDonald might have been by this time had not "Sheriff Duck and his deputies" discovered them In the midst of their dastardly work. It was a timely story with a bit of a thrill. The primaries are only a short way off and Sheriff Duck is wooing the republican nomination to succeed himself. It was interesting, tot, that is, interesting if true. liut there is the rub. It's not true. Sheriff Iuck says so himself. Here is the verbatim report of a colloquy with the .sheriff which took place Thursday afternoon, and here set down to give the sheriff's side of the case a proper presentation: RKI'ORTI'R Mr Sheriff. is there anything in this report that, saws were found in the county jail and an attempted de'ivery of the prisoners prevented? SHERIFF Dl'CK ( Firmly, but blushing a trifle) No, sir. Tlien th sheriff busied himself with the papers on his desk to cover his mbarrassment. And there you have it anther man victimized by his friend.-. 1116.224 NEW MEMBERS SECURED BY CATHOLIC CHURCH A PAST YEAR J'.v AssoI:itfd Press: NEW YORK, March 2.

K r merco open forum Thursday evening unquestionablv heard the '......w c liir v,iiaii". i l iii most c omprehensive tlebate offered em any subject since the institution of tht forum, tho finest inn beinsr the League; of Nations ' Rev. U. S. Davis, pastor eif the First Raptist church, appeared on the af fimrative, and Prof. John M. Cooney, of the University of Notre Dame, on th.e negative. Whether the proponents of the league were present in the minority could not be judged but the majority of the audience undoubtedly expressed its approval of the negative argument. Peace for All. Rev-. Davis presented his argument favoring th" b ague in a clear, concise manner basin-; Iiis appioval of the covenant on the tio'l.irtiuns that it would at bast make peace the concern of all nations and that the United States, while the world is in its present state of politicil tumult, should grasp at any pact which would bind strong nations to preserve order and afterwards rectify the imperfactions of the pact. In opening he offered the opinion that the covenant would go into the coming presidential campaign as a party issue and would in time be voted upon' by the people. Foreign Alliances. Opposing the contention that we would subject ourselves to entang ling foreign alliances upon entering the league, he declared that we have involved ourselves in entangling alliances in separate treaties and thaf. every treaty is an alliance. He then outlined the legislative and executive organization of tlm league. This he stated was not a perfect political instrument but he pointed to the fact that the constitution of the Fnited States was not a perfect political insrument and pointed as witness to thv amend monts. The question on which the debate balanced, however, was first touched in his talk when lie pointed out that the league in establishing an international fourt would give Ireland. India, Korea and other subjert peoples a court for appeal and succor them if their cause proved just. "Fn-Amorlcan." Tt was on that point thit Prof. Onppy introduced his prcmhe.
