Now the DiaboIo Hat

Threatening to become fashionable
is the diabolo hat, so named because
it's high crown is shaped like the spool
used in playing that game-that is,
narrow in the middle and widening
out toward top and bottom. Though
softened by flowers, it's effect is queer,
and it will be only a beauty that can
defy all things that will venture to
wear the diabolo hat.

Washington, Apr. Pointing
out what he declared to be the pre-
carious condition of the national de-
fense of the United States both in
the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans,
Mr.. Hobson of<Alabama, in the house
of representatives today made an
earnest plea for two battleships of
$4,000 tons displacement in addA-
ton. to the two authorized by the
naval appropriation bill.
He said that a conservative esti-
mate would indicate that for the
minimum basis of security and safe
ty in the Pacific ocean, the United
States should lay down at least four
big ships year for many years to
come, until Japan comedies to us
what is inevitable=the American
control of the sea around which our
possessions are scattered"
AS minimum for the Atlantic
ocean, the government should lay
down six battleships year. he said.
--IIeretofore. said Mr.. Hobson. the
weakness of America in the matter
tai to its growth and development,
because the oceans constituted a
great barrier between America and
the armies of the world.
Nov. however" said he, ''the
oceans have been bridged and the
armies of the world have been
brought to our doors, and along with
the armies of the older nations of
Europe have come the armies of the
ancient nations of Asia"
He said that, where America for
merly lived more or less in isola-
ton. she is now exciting the jeal-
ousy of other great nations in
threatening their supremacy in COM
merce. industry and finance In adj
dition, he declared that recent
events have thrown us into the po-
litical vortex of the world, and that.

WHY IS JAPAN
so ACTIVE?
Distance no Longer Can Protect America in Case Of War
Peace Nation Should Prepare to Keep Peaceful
Some Startling Statements Made by
Richard P Hobson

the dangers OF being unprepared are
becoming greater and greater with
each succeeding year.
After calling attention to Ameri-
cas- lack OF merchant marine,
which could be used as auxiliaries
in time of war, and of transports
necessary for properly conducting
war operations, Mr.. Hobson said:
I'VE have almost no standing ar
my and could not prevent the seiz-
ure by foreign power of harbor
on our shores or near our shores,
TO be used as naval base; whereas.
it would be practically impossible
for America to secure a naval base
for operations in European waters.
Forts. mines. torpedoes, torpedo
boats and submarines are valuable
accessories, but such defenses have
never stopped a determined COM
mander of great fleet. They did
not stop Nelson at Copenhagen, nor
Farragut at Mobile bay, nor Dewey
so,rnrlne the issues or a war. and
have no weight in deterring an enc
my from seeking war.
"The forts that We have are Woe
fully unnamed, whereas the troops
needed for other landward defense
could not be modified within the
time necessary.
The possibility of conflict with
Japan was discussed at length b,
Mr. Hobson. He said it was per-
fectly natural for Japan to aspire
to dominate the commerce of China,
the commerce of Asia and of the Pa
cific ocean. And he added it was
perfectly natural for Japan to seek
TO control the policies of China and
to attain supremacy in the Pacific
ocean. and to lead the yellow race
toward recognized supremacy in
the world

Chicago, April Eight persons
were seriously injured and nearly
score of others more or less serious
ly bruised today when a motar car
of a south bound train on the South
Side elevated road jumped the track
a few feet north Indiana avenue sta
tion and crashed to the ground. The
front of the car fell into the rear
yard of a residence at 4235 Prairie
avenue and the rear end remaining
propped against the elevated struc-
ture. The motorman and conductor
on the car both sustained fractured
skulls and probably will die. Several
passengers had limbs fractured. A
panic followed in the four rear cars
and a number of men raised win
dows and leaped out onto the elevat-
ed structure where there were in
imminent danger from the third
rail. The attendants on the cars
however managed to get them back
into the train before anybody was
injured. The accident was caused by
the heavy motor casing of the front
car dropping onto the track and
raising the trucks above the struc-
ture.
