Germans Ask Questions. The council also hao before it a note from the German plenipoten tiaries raising certain points regard ing the makeup of the boundary commission provided for by the treaty of Versailles. The questions were raised by the Germans because of the non-ratification of the treaty by the United States and the con sequent. lack of American members on the commissions as provided for by the peace document. The absence of the Americans al so raised a question as to the presi dency of the commissions to control the plebiscite in the Teschen terri tory, on the Czecho-Slovak and Polish frontier. It was pointed out that the French member would act, pending the qualification of the American member through the rati fication of the pact, should such ac tion be taken' by the United States government V At the cloe .Vf the morning ses sion the council "decided to hold an other 'meeting 'tftSjaftetnpon.

Chairman Hale was informed, also, that a list of awards to officers made by direction of the secretary "without action of the board," was being compiled. : Few Men Recommended. Secretary Daniels said that when the report of the board reached him, he noticed "that put of 500,000 in the naval service auring ine war, only about 113 enlisted men had been recommended for the Navy Cross and' none had been recom mended for the Distinguished Serv ice medal." "I know," the letter said, "that there were reports of brave and heroic action by many enlisted men as well as bv manv officers. I di rected a study of these reports and as result directed that Distinguisnea Service medals and Navy Crosses be awarded." Daniels Recalls Order. Daniels recalled his order asking the entire service personnel to report instances of courage or unusual serv ice, and added: Many men whose deeds are yet unreported will be rewarded, bto final action would be just without the information and recommendations-requested from all officers and men." Citations accompanying the list of awards show that the medals have been awarded not only to" men on ships in the war zone, but also to several members of the naval hos pital unit which served with the marine brigade in France. .
