PHILADELPHIA, Pa, April 18.— Samuel Rea, president of the Pennsyl- vania railroad, denied statements that prices paid by the company for repair work done outside its shops were ex- cessive. Mr. Rea referred specifically to the charge alleged to have been made by William H. Johnston, inter- national president of the machinists’ union, that the Pennsylvania railroad in having 200 lomomotives repaired in the Baldwin shops spent $3.500,000 in excess of the cost if the road had done the work itself. “From March 1, 1920, when the Pennsylvania railroad resumed the management of its property, to De- cember 31, 1920, Mr. Rea said in a formal statement, “locomotive and freight car repair work done outside the railroad’s own shops amounted to about 6 per cent of the total cost of this work. Locomotive and car re- pairs cost the railroad approximately $140,000,000, of which $6,200,000 was for repairs in outside shops. “The direct labor cost of doing this work in outside shops was much less than in railroad shops. For in- stance, direct labor required to re- pair 13,066 cars in outside shops cost $608.494. The same work in railroad shops would have cost the Pennsyl- vania railroad $1,000.306. The labor ccet outside was 40 per cent less. Outside concerns paid their men on a ce work basis. Under the so-call- ed ‘national agreement’ the railroad had to pay its men by the day. Calling attention to the congestion prevailing when the company ri ed the management of the railroad and the “urgent necessity” for repairs to equipment, Mr. Rea's statement continued: “Outside shop assistance was es. but it was kept down to a minimum. The 200 locomotives re- paired under contract by the Bald- win Locomotive Works required the heaviest repairs and sending them outside afforded the railroad shops greater capacity to handle more lo- comotives and return them to ser- vice more quickly. “The business of the country de- manded that the work be done at the earliest possible moment and the Pennsylvania obtained the best terms possible on the work it had to have done outside.

BARELY ESCAPED WAR IN 1916 DANIELS DECLARES Appear After Sussex Sinking That Navy Was . BY JOSEPHUS DANIELS, Former Secretary of the Navy. ARTICLE V. The Navy prepared for action in April, 1916, for war seemed almost as imminent then as it did the next year. ‘When President Wilson sent his Sus- sex note to Germany, declaring that relations would be broken if ruthless submarine warfare was not stopped, we made all plans to mobilize the fleet. Nothing could show more clear- 1y the critical situation than the steps the Navy took to meet it. My mobilization order of April 27, 1916, shows that twenty-nine of thir- ty-two battleships were ready for im- mediate action, and that one of the remaining three would be ready in three weeks' time. The corresponding table for the de- stroyer force showed that out of for- ty-nine destroyers, forty-two were immediately available, and that three of the remaining seven would be available within thirty days. The sinking of the Sussex was the biggest jolt which had come to the peaceful hopes of Washington since the sinking of the Lusitania. It so plainly disregarded the American p sition as defined in the President's Lusitania note that it could not be ignored. Either Germany must repu- diate the Sussex incident as typical of a policy, or continued relations would be impossible. It was about this time, I think, al- though I do not recall the exact date, when the President, after dwelling upon the extreme gravity of the situa- tion, said to us solemnly: “I hope that those of us who believe in prayer will ask divine guidance. ‘Those who know him best (and most people know his reticence about his personal beliefs) will appreciate how deep was his anxiety when he spoke thus to his official family. ‘Wilson Reads Ultimatum. ‘The Sussex was torpedoed March 24. When all facts were in the possession of the State Department, and no sat- isfactory explanation had come from Berlin, the President called us to- gether to read to us the ultimatum which he had prepared to serve upon Germany. Let me recall the significant words in that ultimatum. They have been forgotten in the overwhelming sub- sequent events, but they were words which would have carried us at that date into war as surely as did the diplomatic rupture of 1917, had not Germany seen well to withdraw tem- porarily from her utterly intolerable and unpermissible position. Here are the President's words: “If it is still the purpose of the im- perial government to prosecute re- lentless and indiscriminate warfare against vessels of commerce by the use of submarines, without regard to Wwhat the government of the United States must consider the sacred and indisputable rules of international law and the universally recognized dictates of humanity, the government of the United States is at last forced to the conclusfon that therg is but one course to pursue. Unless the imperial government should now immediately declare and effect an abandonment of its present methods of submarine warfare against passenger and freight-carrying vessels, the govern- ment of the United States can have no choice but to sever diplomatic re- lations with the German empire alto- gether.” Rest Hopes on U-Boat. When we listened to tive reading of these words and realized what .they meant and thetremendous possibili- ties they implied, every one of us was profoundly moved, and there were some, of optimistic temperament, who hoped that this firm threat of Ameri can action would result in a eom. plete abandonment of Germany's warfare on merchant shipping, but there were others who held no such hope. The latter were convinced that Germany relied too greatly upon her U-boat weapon to allow it to be re- stricted in striking power for any great length of time. The end of the submarine, as the decisive weapon Germany regarded it at that time, I shall narrate later. Some temporary concession she might make, but where separate need or tempting opportunity appealed to her, there seemed no reason to doubt that Von Tirpitz would forget all pledges and undertakings and strike wherever he could do most damage. There werethose, indeed, who doub ed if Germany would make even temporary concession, and I think all felt that the possibility of war brood- ed over us with darkenigg shadows when we left the White House with the knowledge that America’s ulti- matum was on its way to Berli; Order for Mobilization. My own apprehensions that rela- tions might be broken off induced me to take immediate steps to have the fleet in readiness. The Navy Depart- ment made complete plans for mo- bilization, and April 27, I approved the order, and it was forthwith sent to every ship. It was accompanied by the mobilization sheets, showing when each battleship and destroyer would be available for service. The text of the mobilization order follow: NAVY DEPARTMENT WASHINGTON, April 27, 1916. Confidential. I;rom: Chief of naval operations. ) Subject: Mobilization plan. 1. The following order has this day been approved by the Secretary of the Navy: “L. In case of mobilization for war in the Atlantic the organization of the naval forces will be as indicated in the mobilization sheets published from time to time by the depart- ment. “3.” Plans will be developed by all the officers concerned for execution upeon the receipt of the order to mob- ze. plain . The order to mobilize when re- ceived to take all necessary action for the rapid assembly of ships at the ren- Mobilized. . emergéncy As the first line of de- fense it must not be caught nap- ping Mobilization is the next step to actual hostilities, and is justifiable only when conditions are extremely threatening. That was the case in the spring of 1916. As it happened, Germany yielded. She replied to our ultimatum with a declaration that her government was “prepared to do its utmost to confine the operations of war for the rest of its duration to the fighting forces of the belligerents.” She further prom- ised that merchant vessels should no longer be sunk without warning or without saving human lives, except in eases where they attempted to escape or to offer resistance. Note the phrase “for the rest of its duration.” ~This made the pledge binding until the war ended. Within eight months Germany was laying her plans to ehatter this solemn promise, and within nine she had re- pudiated .it. For the time, however, it averted the rupture between the two countries, and postponed for nearly a year what many of us by now had come to regard as inévitable. War Staved Off for Year. But this I want to emphasize—it Germany had declined to dbandon the sort of wargare the Sussex sinking represented, President Wilson would i have sent Bernstorfft home in_the | spring_of 1916, and we would have { been at war, in all human probability, | before midsummer. We were set for this program when Berlin backed down. Early in 1915 1 asked the general board to make a study and submit recommendations _coftérning “the preparation necessary to b® made by | the bureaus and offices of the.depart- ment to insure a state of prepared- | mess tor war. | March 13, 1915, the board, then headed by Admiral Dewey, furnished the desired plans, L sent them to each bureau chief with instructions to comply with their requirements. War plans had been made already, and corrected up to date, for the fleet. In July of 1915 I invited Mr. Edison and twenty other eminent engineers. scientists and inventors to devote their genius to naval efficiency. I urged them to attempt to discover some effective means for combating submarines. October 7 I directed the general board to prepare a five-year building program_for the Navy, on an esti- mate of $100,000.000 each year for new construction. About the same time Admiral Blue, with my approval, made plans to increase the number of enlisted men frem 54,000 to prac- tically 100,000. For two years before the war did come we worked to get the whole Navy ready, and when the mysterious S. W. Davidson sailed for London in March, 1917, 1 knew from Admiral Mayo, commander-in-chief, that the fleet was in such good condition that only a word would be required to mobilize it for war. b Copyrig] 1921, by John F.

CRONKHITE MURDER IS DENIED BY SUSPECT Department of Justice Agents Flayed for Arrest of Former Army Captain. NEW YORK, April 18.—Denial that he was in any way connected with the shooting and killing of Maj. Alexan- der Cronkhite at Camp Lewis, Tacoma,’ two and a half years ago, was made here by Robert Rosenbluth, formerly a captain in the Army Engineer Corps. Rosenbluth, who was arrested here on a charge of murder and released later on $25,000 bail, was accused in an alleged confession made by Sergt. Roland P Pothier at Tacoma of having ordered him to shoot the major, promising him protection if he performed the deed. Rosenbluth, who is at the home ot his attorney here, declared Maj. Cronkhite was “the best liked man in the outfit” and asserted that the De- partment of Justice agents had blun- dered in their investigation of the case. “It was to satisfy a private ven- geance,” he sald, “and to hang onto their jobs that I was accused of the murder.” The idea of a premediated conspir- acy to shoot Maj. Cronkhité, Rosen- bluth declared, was impossible, as the major was in the hospital four days previous to the shooting and no one knew he was to be with the skeleton regiment on the day of their hike. Jonah J. Goldstein, Rosenbluth's at- torney, flayed the Department of Jus- tice, saying “they are looking for some one to put the blame on and don’t care who it is. Rosenbluth has nothing to fear, as he is absolutely in- nocent and all his old buddies of the service know it.” PLANS TO INCLUDE ALL. Bills Before Congress for Physical Education of Children.
