JAPANESE ISSUES
DEMAND Big NAVY
ALSO WANTS HUMMER OF SMALL
ER BOATS, BRINGING COST
UP TO $40, 100000.
Republican, Object = Party COndis-
ions Such That Appeal to OPP
position Is Made Necessary.

Washington, Feb. 7..-Ata confer
ence held yesterday in. the White
House, Democratic members Of the
House Naval Affairs COMMITTEES were
ASKED by the President TO support the
demand Of the administration for =
material increase in the strength Of
the navy.
1t is said that 10 presenting his rea-
sons for requesting the cooperation Of
the Democrats, the President inti-
mated that the present international
situation is such as to warrant this
nation In taking precautionary steps.
The President is said TO have specin-
cally mentioned Japan, and his appeal
is said to have been to the congress-
men as patriots and not as polite
ians.
The administration urges the imme-
diate construction of four battleships
and four scout cruisers and an In
crease in the auxiliary fleet Of submar-
ines, mine ships and torpedo boat de-
%stroyerS.
WHY APPEAL WAS MADE.
Opposition to his naval policy In bis
own party is said to have made 1t lnec-
essary for the President to seek the
aid of Democrats. The Republicans
are said to favor the construction Of
only two battleships this year, and as
the naval appropriation : bill is TO be
reported early next week immediate
action seemed necessary to prevent
the defeat of the administrations pro-
gram.
The Democrats who attend the con-
ference we're Robert Lamar Of Mis-
souri,, Richard Pearson Hobson OF
ALBANIA, L. P. Padgett, Of Tennessee
and ]. II. O. Talbot, OF Maryland.
Others invited but who could not be
present were Fregg OF Texas, Kitchin
Of North Carolina and Meyer Of Louis
lana. Hobson and Talbot are pre-
sumed TO be ready to support the
President, and Lamar Is sc inclined,
but stated to-day that be desired to as
certain Missouri sentiment before
committingihimself to the expendi-
ture of $40, o0O, 900 for one department
OF the Government.
PLEDGED TO SECRECY.
Those who attend the conference
were pledged to secrecy SO far as in
ternational affairs are concerned. The
only statement that could be obtain
ed from the Democratic committee
men present was that the President
had pointed out to them that the
navy increase idea was Of Democratic
origin.
