Washington March 26 Two naval officers Rear Admiral C. G. P. Plunkett and Captain J. K. Taussig testified before the senate committee that Secretary Daniels resisted increases in personnel for two years before US entry and the navy suppressed reports of shortages During the war both officers served with the Atlantic destroyer force and blamed unpreparedness and gunnery inefficiency on manpower shortages Taussig said Dewey's board recommendations for a large enlistment rise were rejected Plunkett noted ships were in as good condition as possible in April 1917 but crew shortages hindered gunnery and ship deployment He also referenced potential 1944 indemnities and commented that German gunnery had once reversed British fortunes at Jutland.
