The rumors of immediate DANGER
of war with Japan that comes out
from Washington and fly about the
country contrast strangely with the
concrete acts of the Navy Depart
ment. For weeks the batt;e-ship
fleet has been getting farther and
farther away from what must be
the thearer OF such war. 1t has
been doing benevolent work at Mes
sina and making visits in the Medi-
ter1anean. Repair orders have been
sent to the Pacific coast cruiser
squadron, the repairs to he made
when? Three months hence, when
the usual Spring target practice has
been finished! These concrete acts
prove one Of two situations to exist.
Either the navy department is
shamefu)ly negligent in providing
against the danger of which there
is so much talk, or there Is no dan
ger of immediate war with japan
From one of these two conclusions
there IS no escape. The former al.
Tentative IS nnthinkable. The latter
seems probable.
