For Big Navy.

New York, Dec. 16.-IIenry ],
Stimson, former secretary of war, en-
dorsed the policy of big navy in a
speech before the Merchants Associ-
alton at a luncheon in the Hotel AS
tor today. More than 1,500 members
of the association vigorously applaud
ed the plan outlined by Mr.. Slim
son.
"The first line of our national de
Tense is the navy" he said. "Our whole
policy is based upon that assumption.
In order to defend this country. the
navy must be free to fight the enc
my's fleet wherever that enemy can be
fought with the best chance for Amer
lean success. Our navy must not be
tied down to our coast.
ut would be disastrous to yield to
the argument that we so frequently
hear-that we should build a non sea
going navy. coast defense navy, as
it is sometimes called. To limit the
seagoing ability of our own fleet is
simply to give our enemy the option
of attacking when he thinks his
chances are best for success rather
than of leaving that option with us,
In the case of the army our needs
can be classified under three heads:
First, we need very moderate
increase in our regular army, to be
accomplished mainly by the introduc
tion of a reserve system.
Second, we need to lay an intel
hgent foundation upon which we can
promptly organize large citizen OF

Third, we must at once acquire
sufficient reserve of field guns and
ammunition and other war material
which will be needed for the equip
ment of such a citizen army and yet

WASHINGTON WILL

Use of Potomac Field for Army

Approved.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 22.-
The Carlin resolution, authorizing the
use of the polo field in Potomac Park
for the Army Navy football game,

Committee on military affairs yester-
day. The resolution contains no pro-
visions with regard to the erection of
grandstands and other incidentals of
the big game. the price of admission
and other such details being left to
the athletic associations of the two
academies.
At the suggestion Of Mr.. Garrison,
the secretary of war, these associa-

grounds after the game to their nor

The resolution, as amended by the
committee, gives the secretary OF

neers, direct jurisdiction over the pro-
posed loan of the playing field.

Eddie Collins, the Athletics snappy
second-sacker, who is one of the
major league stars the Federal
League expected to take from the
ranks of organized baseball, signed a
contract yesterday to remain with
the Athletics. Connie Mack made the
official announcement in Philadelphia
last night, but there was nothing said
about the salary Collins is to receive
or how many years his contract is
for. 1t is for more than one year.
Just how high Connie Mack had to
go to secure Collins signature will
hardly be known. for Mack does not
let the public into his club secrets.
Collins, no doubt, got what he asked
for, and in the face of the offer made
him by the Federals it is thought it
is in the neighborhood of $4,000 a
year. Collins said last night that he
was perfectly satisfied with the
terms. The contract the Federals are
said to have offered Collins was for
$50, 900, for three years, but Collins ad-
mitted that it was not quite that
much.
Learning that the season would
really be finished the Braves took re-
newed interest, walloping Pittsburgh
and moved into the first division.
Matty also performed with consid-
cradle class for a youth. Taking up
the burden with the score tied in the
