US. NAVY IN WAR.

ADM. SIMS'S CHARGES.

UPHELD BY THE SENATE.

Ewringe the war ended, and even du ing its progress, a fierce con- troversy has been waged between Americans call the "Deep Seå" ser- tion of the navy and the "Armchair or Longshoremen" ofEcers. Admiral Sims started the commotion when he wrote to Mr. Secretary Daniels on Jan 7, 1920, charging that delays and errors traceable to the Navy administration prolonged the war for four months, causing a loss of 2,500.000 tons of shipping. Admiral Sims argued that the errors delayed the naval operations and prevented the American expeditionary forces arriving as early as they might have arrived. According to the Republic- an majority of the Senate Naval Committee of Inquiry, Admiral Sims's coremions are substantially upheld: bai the minority report presented by the Democrats is in sharp dissent and declares that the success of the navy's operations under Mr. Secretary Daniels had demonstrated the wisdom of the policies pursued.

Roughly speaking, the Senate Com mittee was split ty three to two on the issues raised, but the majority re commend the appointment of com- missions to study the lessons of the war and to reform the naval organisa. tion. It looks as if the controversy will be prolonged on political lines, the Republicans charging the recent Democratic Government with follow- ing a "self-defensive, non-aggressive, and non-helpful policy" in the war, and the Democrats pointing to the actual results achieved, coupled with the suggestion that the majority findings implying censure criticism of the entire navy, instead of "praise stacks ct defective patriotism.

on or

The most serious charge, against the late Administration was that the war did not fod the navy prepared, from as Mr. Daniels proclaimed,

stem to stern," but that despite warnings, the war, and more par- ticularly the submarine depredations, found the navy very much unpre- pared and undenmanned, without material. On entering the war and for many months afterwards, says the majority report. "the conclusion seems unavoidable that the primary motive of the Administration was not to do everything possible to help win the war with the Allies and against the Germars, but rather to have been to look to the future of the United States apart from the Allies in case the latter might be defeated, er in case peace without victory mightbe made." And again, "There seems to have been no realisation on the part of President Wilson and Mr. Secretary Daniels at the outset of the war that the war would only be won in conjunction with the Allies and that, therefore, the safety of the United States depended absolutely on furnishing the Allies speedily with assistance that could bring about victory." It is declared, moreover, that Admiral Sims's re Feated requests for battleships were zot acceded to until after a delay of aver eight months, and for submarines over six months.

Much credit is given to Admiral Sims for bringing about the convoy system, which proved successful "in protecting our ships from German submarines," and the Navy Depart- ment is charged with opposing this system during the first two months of the war and not acceding to it fully un- til the middle of July, 1917. The majority report adds "We find that," although virtually all the naval auth orities recommended the immediate concentration of the anti-submarine forces in the war zone, yet it was not until April 24, 1917, that any auti submarire craft set sail from the United States to the war zone, and then only six destroyers were Bo detailed."

In the editorial columns of the local newspaper at Raleigh, North Carolina, owned by Mr. Daniels, there is a statement to-day, signed by the former Secretary of the Navy, declar ing that the criticism is quite un- founded, and strongly deprecating the attempt to rob the navy of its place in history, born of the pique of politics."

court, and he said he wanted a divorce and wished me to give -vidence against him. He had told bs wife that he had vecereal disease. Th brings out another point in these cases. I: ap. pears to me a misuse of the services af the medical officers of these clinics to compel them to go up to Jurish evidence for divorce, as in this case, where the man made use of his attendance at the clinic as a proof of adultery. Instead of the hotel chambermaid the medical officer was compelled to furnish the proof.

"If we can't get the principle of cur tight to preserve professional sectecy recognised, the least we can do is to ingist on the Ministry of Health stopping their publicity cam- paign posters and treatraent centres advertisements carrying a promise that the treatment at the clinics shall be in secrecy, and we must get the secrecy clause in the Act cut out.”

SECRECY VITAL,

I had the opportunity of talking with a number of doctors on this question of secrecy, and found almost all of them in agreement on one essential point: what is, of all ibings, vital to the betterment of the com munity is that all persons suffering from any venereal disease should go at once to a doctor, and anything which should discourage this readi ness to be treated must at all costs be avoided. A real conviction in the patient's mind that secrecy will in all cases be absolute is the best, the only, way to encourage this medical con- fession

The multiplying frequency of de mands upon docters to give evidence in divorce proceedings is forcing the British Medical Association to take action. It is likely that by next year doctors will be assured of the full support of their association if they refuse to give evidence or to obey a sub pœna-

The question: "Must a doctor tell?" has become so actual that the Ministry of Health has telegraphed its readiness to receive a deputation of representatives of the British Medical Association.

The present position is absurd and wrong, The Ministry of Health has pledged itself to absolute Secrecy in the case of all patients going to the venereal clinics, and makes secrecy a prominest part of the advertisement of the clinics in order to secure the confidence of the public. On the other hand, docters are forced by and law and urged by judges magistrates to give away the most intimate secrets for the sake of evidences in divorce cases as well as criminal cases.
