Cannon RETURNS
HERE FOR A VISIT
Former Speaker Gives His
Views on Economy Policy
of Administration.

Joseph G. Cannon of Illinois came to
town today on a visit, to remain sew
eral days. The former Speaker of the
House is in fine health and apparently
is looking forward with keen anticipa-
tion to rc-entering political life when
the new Congress assemblies next win
ter.
II observe that the administration is
laying great stress upon economy"
said Mr.. Cannon. in an interview with
a Star reporter. Secretary McAdoo
has cut the estimates to the bone and
Chairman Fitzgerald intends to scrape
the bone. but the bone probably will be
a $1,000, 100000 bone just the same.
THE democratic economy is like that
of the new clerk in the country store
who carefully watched the spigot, but
carelessly knocked out the plug from
the bunghole.
Prom the President down they are all
watching the spigot through which is
drawn off the money for the ordinary
functions of government, and they are
shocked IL a poor clerk wants an IN
crease in salary or half holiday, but
when it comes to opening the bung
hole for the building of a government
owned railroad in Alaska or the pur-
chase of old ships that are mostly
junk. to create a government merchant
marine they are like flies around
sugar barrel.

The President is mighty good at

the people want results. There is an

Of Strategic Value.
| The bay at Port Stanley is crescent
shaped. At the time of my own visit
| the British admiralty was putting up
i an extensive series of coal sheds and
building a circular breakwater for the
coaling station.
The hopes of the islanders were
raised high by this evidence of a pro-
gressive policy. Previously, while
some of the British warships in the
south Atlantic would come into the
bay during the summer months they
would steam off again at the approach
of winter, and the Falklands hardly
could be considered much of naval
station. One of the local officials who
was filed with cheer because of the
enlarged coaling facilities told me that
some day the Falklands We're going
to be of great strategic value to Eng
land. He was almost alone In that
opinion, but recent events justify him.
FOLLOWING tne cOaIlnS station, a WIRE
less station was also established on
the Falklands- Not much is known
about the operations of this wireless,
but it is in easy communication with
Montevideo and with Puntas Arenas,
on the Chilean mainland, in the
straits If the wireless which was
erected on the rocky coast of Terra del
Fuego is in commission. the Falkland
station would also be in communica-
tion with that.
Those familiar with South American
conditions have been wondering for a
month past what was going on in the
Falklands. 1t is not improbable that
Admiral Craddock in taking his ILL
fated fleet around to the west coast, put
In at Port Stanley to coal. Nor is it
unlikely that the German admiral got
information by means of intercepted
wireless messages of the movement of
Admiral Craddock's ships.
German Wireless.
The German company known as the
'relefunken," under contract with the
different South American governments;
put up wireless stations on both the
Atlantic and the Pacific coasts. With
the knowledge gained in this work, and
with many German operators scattered
throughout those regions, it would be
possible to maintain private wireless
