SPECIAL WASHINGTON
CORRESPONDENCE

Washington, d. G., Nov. In one
year the American people must decide
how they shall meet a national crisis. .
Senator Reed Smoot, member of the
Senate Finance Committee, made this
statement to-day as comment upon
the national defense program.
"As now proposed" said Senator
Smott, "the proposed national defense
program involves an expenditure Of
more than one billion dollars; the ex-
penditures, however to cover a peri
cd Of FIVE years. That expenditure
must be financed.
How shall il be done That is a
question voters must answer one year
later. 1t is a grave responsibility !
thoroughly believe that there can be,
and will be, but one course to pursue.
That is to elect a Republican Presi-
dent and a Republican Congress.
"The Republican party is the only
one that in policy and performance
has proven adequate to meet such a
situation. Considered from every
angle the Democratic party has dem
onstrated its inability and unfitness
for the task.
Remember that the balance Of
trade against us during the four
months preceding the war, at time
when Democratic policies and laws
were in effect. was s24s 900 900 What
b political blessing the war was TO the
Democratic party.
I'm two years the Democratic adj
|ninistration has produced such bust
ness conditions that, but for the pure
" accidental stimulus Of foreign
MAR, we would now be in the throes Of
b panic. Eliminate the market Great
fd by temporary artificial European
Demands, and American industry
would be Frustrated.
"Past history has proven the only
way the Democratic party, when in
power, has been able TO meet the ex-
rayagant appropriations made by
hem for the ordinary running ex-
pcnses Of the government, was by the
pale Of bonds. A bond issue is inev-
table whether a national defense pro-
gram Is undertaken or not.
In two years the Democratic adj
ninisiration has passed scores Of
worthless laws The insertion OF
|neaningless phrases in statutes, the
constant violation Of the simplest leg
sla;ive rules, have brought abou,
more costly and needless federal liti-
patton than we have ever known be-
FORE.
"ln two years the Democratic ad-
ninis,ration has created an enormous

We captured height in Turkish territory and in taking the enemy's camp there we secured de- pots of artillery and ammunition"

GERMANS CHECK
 ALLIES ADVANCE
(Continued from First PageD Persian City of Tabriz
 Occupied By Turks

London. Jan. 13, 1:15 D. m.-The Reuter- Telegram company has re- ceiVed despatch from it's correspon- dent from Petrograd saying that an advance detachment of the Turkish army has occupied the Persian city Of Tabriz:.
 The taking of Tabriz means that the Turks, who undoubtedly had the backing of some of the wild Turkish tribesmen of that locality have se- cul ed a more or less important base fer the projected German-Turkis ish at tack upon the Russian positions in the province of Erivan, north of the Per sian border and south of Tiffis.
 The occupation of Tabriz, which is the capital of the Province of Azer- baijan, was rendered comparatively easy for the Turks by the recent with draWal of Russian forces to meet the Ottoman advance further west Whether Tabriz was taken without Eloodshed is not yet known, but in the absence of Russian troops it is not likely that Persia was able to offer any serious resistance.
 Tabriz is in northwestern Persia and, after Teheran, the largest city in the country. It is 100 miles to the east of the Turkish frontier.

stroyed ffty-one Turkish boats. The bombardment of the port of Hopa which is the distributing point for the Tchoruk region, caused a number of fires along the coast.
 A curious incident concerning the proceedings of the Turkish fleet in the Black Sea has been reported. It seems that the Turkish cruiser Bres- lau bombarded certain positions held by Turkish troops near Liman, which is to the north of Hopa. Following this bombardment our troops occu- pied without hindrance the positions from which Turkish soldiers had been driven by the fire of their own cruis- o
