HOUSE APPROVES
Big navy POLICY
Expresses Its Favor by Vote
Of l4S to 81 on Appro-
priation Bill.
TO RESUME FIGHT TODAY
Two-warship Plan Declared to Be
Scheme to Fatten Trusts.
Daniels Attacked.

Bv vote of l4s to 81, the House yes
terday went on record informally in
favor of an authorization for two battle
ships In the pending naval appropriation
bill. The fight was bitter. The small
navy" members were not deferred from
attacks upon the proposal to authorize
additions to the feet by the knowledge
that they were beaten before the votes
were counted. They assailed the propo-
sition vigorously. but when the vote
was taken on an amendment offered by
Representative Buchanan. Of Illinois. pro-
vIding one instead Of two Dreadnoughts,
l4s voted in the negative as against
ninety-one in the affirmative.
All OF this hapepned In the Committee
OF the Whole. Today the bill will be
taken I'D In the House and yesterday S
action ratified by probably a larger vote.
Policy of Graft.
An amendment offered by Representa-
tive Witherspoon. Of MISSISSIPPI Demo
crat, an ardent little navy" supporter,
to strike out the provision for battle
ships altogether was lost by vote Of
Al to l52.
Debate on the bill centered on two
uuestions-whether there should be an
increased navy. and whether one Of the
two battleships agreed upon should be
built at government or private ship
yards
Representative witherspoon claimed the
policy of an increased navy was based
on graft, waste and greed" was a
feeder to plutocratic trusts that fattened
on profits in building American battle
ships, and promoted an un-American
spirit OF militarism.
The big navy men," he said many
of them officers of our American ships.
have belittIed our fleet by charging
that IL was the inferior of the navies
OF Great Britain, Germany and other
foreign nations OF Europe. The only
reason the corporations behind this
big navy movement do not advocate
because that Is all they can handle"
Attack ON Daniels.
Representative Murdock. OF Kansas,
attacked Secretary OF the Navy Dan
ieIs because he did not try to protect
naval expenditures from alleged depre-
dations by unlawful trusts" Mr..
Murdock read from portions Of Secre-
tary Daniels testimony on the armor
plate hearing. He said:
Secretary Daniels sits at the same
council table with Attorney General Nc
REYNOLDS at Cabinet meetings. He
knows the armor plate trust is robbing
the government. Attorney General Nc
Reynolds must know it Why does he
permit this wrong to 20 on unhindered?
Extracts from speeches made by Rep
resentative Padgett in 1870 when he OPP
posed a greater navy. were read by Rep
resentative Hardy, OF Texas. who op-
posed two battleships. He declared that
the chairman of the Naval Affairs Com
mittee had been scared out Of exercis-
ing his better judgment by the greater
navy men.

Forged Checks

Recently there has been several
attempts to get away with money
obtained from cashing forged
checks. In one instance the man
got the money and so far has NOT
been caught. The name of G. M
Light was forged to check and
so accurately did he initiate the
writing of Mr.. Light that the
check was cashed and not until i,
was cleared and turned over .to
Mr.. Light was the forgery dis.
covered. Then the man who had
so successfully fooled the people
was far away.
Just few days ago, another
took a check for $l19,S3 to the
First National bank expecting to
get it cashed. He had signed the
name of Mr.. j. Orth" to the
check. The cashier was not sat-
isfed with the appearance of the
check and said he would hold it.
Meantime the forger decided that
a getaway was the best thing to
do and left with his check still
uncashed.
During the time of so many
strangers here many checks were
cashed by local business men as
an accommodation to the farmers.

usually paid until Saturday night
and when they came 70 town

Broom Corn Harvested

Nearly all of the broom corn of
this section has been cut and most
of it has been baIed. BY October
first, it will probably all be ready
for market. While weather con
ditions have not been favorable
for the fall planting of wheat, it
has been ideal for caring for thes
broom corn crop which will ex-,
ceed that of last year in quantity.
In quality it is considered better
and local buyers are paying some
better prices than last year.
Some of the broom corn is be-
ing cut for ensiIagc and put into
silos.

with the address delivered yester-
DAY, Dr. J. Aspinall McCuaig brought
20 a close the work Of the second week
Of his campaign in South Bend. in
the interest Of right living.
"The End Of sin-the Wrath Of
God" which closed the series Of ser
mons on sin. was pronounced by many
of those who heard it 10 be the
the strongest sermon TO which they
bad ever listened, and many OF the
auditors left with a conviction that
- "full-grown" is the most terrible
hing that can come 10 mankind.
There were many present who, not
Witnstanding long years OF church at
1illation, had never before had any
adequate appreciation OF the reality
and horror of sin. To these came an
awful awakening TO the realities that
would inevitably follow. unless they
and those dear to them accepted the
measures for salvation from sin that
are open TO all, through the sacrifice
OF Jesus Christ.
One gentleman, who has heard q
large number of Or. McCuaig's ad-
dresses during the past two weeks,
said last night cit is a misfortune in

comparatively, have attended these
McCuaig lectures and sermons which
are unQuestiOnably the best and most
important that have ever been deliver
ed in this city. There is no question,
but that every time he has spoken the
building in which he has spoken
should have been crowded to its ca
Tacity. An opportunity has passed
that viii never come again, and the
loss personal and public to the citi-
zenship and civic we'll being of South
Bend can hardly be Over-estimated."
