The clients Of lawyers. Mr.. Douglas ad-
vised his audience, must be taught to
obey the law whether the lawyer did or
did not do so. This should be borne In
mind always in dealing with clients. as
it was the duty Of the lawyer to conn1ve
at no wrong-doing except his own. he
suspected that every man before MIN

Prof. D. W. Baker Of the law faculty

SOUAbBLE MAY ARISE
OVER NAVAL PROGRAM
Marked Difference in Requests
of Secretary and Gen.
eraI Board.

Because there is a wide difference be-
tween the naval estimates as presented
to Congress by the Secretary Of the
Navy and the recommendations Of the
general board of the Navy Department
there may be an interesting controversy
before the members Of the House naval
committee when the question of additions
to the United States floating forces is
reached.
The situation is that the estimates spe-
officially ask for authority to lay the keels
year. There is no mention of battleship-
as the increased navy program for this
year. There is no mention Of battleship
cruisers or anything else. The three bat
tleships are all that is asked for in that
line. This may be the subject Of a DEM
ocratic caucus. Little has been heard
about that SO far this session. Only
the memory of the twO-battleship demo-
Gratis confronts the House as yet, and
their last promise was that II the House
passed only one new battieship in the
last act il would make provision for
three in the present act. making three
big ships the addition to Uncle Sam s
feet as the gift of the fiscal year 1914.
Difference as to Warships.
Now, while the estimates ask for three
battleships, the general board, in the re-
port of the Secretary Of the Navy. asks
for millions of dollars worth more. In
fact, it asks:
1.-THE general board. in pursuance Of
consistent recommendation since 1900. rec
ommends that provision be made for an
increase of the navy at the coming ses-
sion Of Congress by an addition OF the
following new construction: Four battle
ships battle cruisers, 16 destroyers. 1
tender. transports. l ammunition ship,
q subma rines. ] submarine tender, ! sup
ply ship. gunboats, 2 seagoing tugs, /
dry dock. submarine testing dock"
Will Hear Proposition.
OF course. the naval committee Of the
House will listen to propositions for an
increased navy, but whether the Secre-
tary of the Navy will push the three bat
teship program as laid down In tine esti-
mates, or work for four battleships and
many other ships. as asked for in the
report, Is q question which the members
of the committee are awaiting with some
| interest.
| At any rate, they are trying to formu-
| late a method Of doing the best for the
| navy. and at the same time avoid the
| criticism that SO much was asked for and
only portion given.
