that North is high man in the service

North married a daughter Of my

my brother-in-lawf' Indignantly an
quired the mayor when asked about
his relationship with the machinist.
" He is NO more relative of mine than

He has been good man and ne soon

Startles Congress by Telling of
What Might Result
From a War.

E WASHINGTON, January 20.--Infor-
nation of a confidential and startling
nature was given to the house commit
tee on naval affairs yesterday by Rear
Admiral Vreeland OF the general board
u the navy, who earnestly advocated
hat this nation keep pace with Japan
IN the construction of battleships. The
japanese naval policy, the comparative
ease with which Japan could secure the
Philippines and possibly Hawaii in the
event of trouble and the impression of
naval strategists that that country
would Immediately ask a repeal OF the
California land law, if the naval
strength Of the Japanese was allowed
60 exceed that Of the United States,
we're subjects secretly discussed about
the committee tables ..H,. 5
Rear Admiral Yreeland Is views were
given behind closed doors, and part
Jf his testimony was of sueh conf
lential nature that it will not be pub
iished in the committee hearings. Mem.
bers Of the committee were reluctant
90 talk of the session, but Admiral
yreeland impressed the committee with
The necessity of n return to an adequate
5attlcsbip program.
Z The building policies Of Germany,
France and Italy were incidentally dis
enssed, but in view of the controversy
the Japanese situation received closest
attention. ,tu s., a& f.sE +. .t.l
Rear Admiral Vreoland is said to
have volunteered little, eontenting him
self with answering the pointed ques-
tions- of committee members. - ,.s .
Asked If Japan could secure Alaska
as easily as the Philippines, the naval
strategist replied in the negative, and
then gave reasons for that answer,
These explanations will not appear in
the record. The admiral did not doubt
that the United States would beat Ja-
pan eventually in case Of war, but
there seemed to bea general agreement
that temporarily Japan would hold the
Philippines, and that If she ever struck
a blow it would be a quick and concen-
trated one. H.. .......fAS j
Rear Admiral Vreeland. is reported
to have said that while it was difficult
to get a definite line on the navll
policy of Japan, that ma
ton was spending all it could for bat
tleships and auxiliaries He told the
house committee that unless the Unit
ed States wanted to fall behind the
procession it must adopt a more lib.
eral navy policy. .a,t.
The admiral disagreed with Repre-
sentatives Hensley and Buchanan,
stsmall navy men that preparedness
Cor war invites conflict Mr.. Hensley
argued that an armed man is more
likely to get into fight than an I'M
armed one, and that the same state
ment applied to nations.
The California land law controversy
was brought up and the admiral is
reported to have aequiesced in the
prediction that whenever the United
States navy should. rank lower than
that of Japan, demand may be ex
peeted for a repeal Of that law

DEEPEST MUD HOLE
SETS LIMIT ON LOAD

z WASHINGTON, February 1. The
cost Of hauling over country roads is
largely determined blythe size Of the
load that can be hauled, the number Of
trips that can be made in a. day and
the wear and tear on teams and equip.
ment, according to the. Office of public
roads, departments Of agriculture. Steep
grades as well as Tuts md mnd.holes
serve to decrease both the speed and
the load. On the principle that chain
Is no stronger than Its weakest link,
the maximum load that team 4 can
draw is the load that il. can draw up
the steepest hill or through the deep
est mud.hole on that road, SKI.

How Plan Would Work Out.

SAN FRANCISCO, February a.
This city now stands third of all the
cities in the United States in the vol.
qme of Army recruiting. Under the
direction of Lieutenant Colonel John
il. Gardner, who has charge of the To-
cal recruiting district, the San Fran.
cisco office annually takes in more men
for the service than any other cities
IN the United States with the exeep-
ton Of New York and Chicago, New
York heading the list and Chicago
second. In proportion 10 population
this places the local recruiting office
actually in the lead. ga+ - ."
The figures show that only about 10
per cent of the men who apply for en-.
listment get through TO the medical
officers. Only 20 per cent of those who
enlist, or who wish 10 enlist, and who
get as far as the physical examination
by medical corps men, which examina,
lions are made ON Angel Island at the
recruit depot, are accepted for service.
Ia December, for instance, 1880 men
made application for enlistment, and
of these 1906 were rejected. This is
about the average proportion of ap,
plicapts who finally get through, not
taking into consideration the obvious.

GULICK' s Plan
FOR IMMIGRATION
Would Put All Races on an Equal
Legal Footing and Mollify
Japanese. ..

Prof. Sydney l.. Guliek, lecturer Mt
the Imperial University, Toxic, a mem.
Der Of the famous Gulck family of
Honolulu ana very well known here,
has proposed a substitute immigra-
bion measure TO President Wilson and
Secretary Bryan, which would elm.
mate the Chinese exclusion regula.
tions and also place Japanese on ex-
actly the same basis as the people Of
any other race, at the same time
holding the amount of immigration TO
an easily assimilable figure.
Washington despatch, dated Feb
ruary 2, gives the details Of Professor
Gnlick's suggestion, as follows;
= A new immigration plan which its
author declares would conserve the
material interests Of the United states,
and satisfy all foreign governments by
emitting racial references and discriuis
nations, was proposed today to Presi-
dent Wihon and Secretary Bryan by
Professor sydney l.. Guliek, lecturer at
the Imperial University of japan.
!" Professor Guliek said tonight that
at the Presidents request he had sub.
initted to him detailed explanation
of his proposed measure and had giv.
EN- drafts Of it to Secretary Bryan and
the senate immigration COMMITTEES.
Professor Guliek advocates the
limitation of all immigration to five
per cent annually of the number of
Foreigners already naturalized and
their Ameriean-born children.
N'This rate would allow all to en-.
Tor fhta L.
North Europe, he said, 'and would
cut down immigration somewhat from
South and East Europe and allow only
a slight immigration from Asia.
Tho five per cent rate, he assert
ed, would admit no more aliens from
any country than the United States
can properly assimilate, and the policy
would solve the Japanese problem
and would put America right with all
Asia, and maintain and deepen inter,
national friendship. ".a
How Plan Would Work Out.
Ellis suggestion is that by a rate
of five per cent and under, 405, 900
Germans could be admitted, although
only 27,7SS came in 1912; 800 Eng.
lish, whereas only S2,9T9 came in
1915 Italian immigrants would be re-
duced from 49, 1874, who came In 1912,
to a possible maximum of $3.50. The
same rate would admit only 800 tJapa.
nesc and 73S Chinese immigrants.
"Rev. Mr.. Gulick believes that by
making character and educatiIn the
qualification for citizenship and by
the percentage rate, the interests Of
America and Asia, and Of California
and Japan would be conserved and
harmonized with dignity

AZ what prices the same can be bought

1||rnment authorities, he said, rocog-
.niYed that local prices arc necessarily
~ kher than mainland prices and SO long
rs the margin of advance in pricea Is
a reasonable one the navy department
will give the preference TO tho local
merchant. He cited two cases which
have recently arisen, demurrage case

a foreign port, and, the purchase OF n
ships cargo of supplies which was land

The admiral s final admonition to the
