SENDING FLEET TO PACIFIC PART
OF PLAN WHICH SENT DRY
DOCK TO ORIENT.
NOTHING TO DO WITH JAPAN
POLICY OF LATE SENATOR DAVIS
is NOW BEING CARRIED
OUT.

Washington, July 1.-THE confirma-
ton by Secretary OF the Navy Metcalf
of the plan to send naval fleet to
the Pacific waters, coupled with a be-
lated admission at Oyster Bay of the
correctness of that report, is consider
ed important for several reasons.
OF course this action on the part of
the administration has no connection
with the war scare about Japan, but
it is not out of place to say that what
ever of transformation and scare
stuff has been floating throughout the
country has been due in part at least
to the want Of candor among the Off
Gals of the. government in dealing
with the subject.
every respect that in several of the de-
partments here, notably the state and
navy, there is disposition toward
secrecy and the giving of misleading
answers to direct questions, which
makes more for trouble than does all
the war scare stuff printed by the
yellow journals printed in this coun-
try and Japan.
The fact is that the sending of the
big ships of the navy to the Pacific is
in line with policy adopted long ago,
and for which the preparations, in
Guiding the sending of the dry dock
Dewey to the Philippines, have been
in progress for two years.
Urged by Minnesotan.

memory of the late Cushman K. Da-
Wis, so long senator from Minnesota
and chairman of the foreign relations
committee of the senate, to say that
his policy is approved now that the.
United States is devoting increased
attention to the Pacific.
Through all the later years OF his
life Mr.. Davis omitted no opportunity
for directing attention to the increas-
ing Importance to the United States:
of affairs in the Pacific. His views in
that direction were strengthened by
his service on the peace commission
after the Spanish war.
More Ships and More Men.
Ever since the acquisition of the,
Philippines the government has been
engaged upon plans for Strengthening
its hands along the Pacific and doing
everything ossible to enforce the open
