pose of boosting for the bonding

SUBMARINES FOR COAST DEFENSE

When the United States Senate takes up the naval appropriation bn it will do well to correct two serious mistakes made by the House
 As the navy bill left the House committee con. taned a provision for the creation of a Bureau Op erations The bureau was to frame consistent and per policy of naval development and put it into ex ecuton instead leaving construction and admnistra the hormiss policies of inexpert congressmes civilian secretaries universally hailed as a great forward step at time when the nation wac interested in naval problems as it had not been since the Spanish war But the House struck the provision from the bill
 The measure reported also contained appropria tions for and other auxiliary craft notably hospital ship and a naval transport. The neei last two is recognized by all naval experts As for the submarines it is agreed that the definite lessons learned the outbreak Of the present War thel peculiar efficacy of this of craft But Che House in a spasm of economy which resulted in a reduo- ton of s75oOOOo from the estimate cut the number of submarines from sixteen to eleven and eliminated the hospital and transport ships
 This doesn't look like wise economy. There are plen yy of other ways money. While do not want an enormous navy we do want efficient navy. Our present is topheavy. 1t needs auxiliares Above all it needs submarines. We should have plenty them adequate defense, even if have to sacrifice batueship cruiser provide the money

TAFT ON WAR SUPPLIES

ExPresdent Taft seems to have given the best answer yet to those who in their professed zeal for neu traity insist that our government should prohibit the sale of war munitions beligerens Addressing Ger man professor of Harvard University who had asked him to lend his support to Senator itchcocks bn establish ing such prohibition Mir Taft explained that he could not do so for two reasons
 One of them is a reason already familiar to the pub Ic It is the explanation given by President Wilson himself that would be an unneural act to change, at this particular time the long established rule of in ternational law regarding the sale Ammunition and arms by neutrals to beigerents. because matters stand "it would nure only to the benefit of one of the bengerents."
 The other argument is new, but none the less for cible ITO interdict uhe supply of ammunition and arms from this country to the beHgerents" says Mr. Tar. would be adopt policy that would seriously inter fere with our own welfare should we ever be drawn into
 war against our will by the invasion of powe- ho was fully prepared and who would always find u' unprepared
 such policy would mean that the power who is armed capapie would always have at a disadvantage those countries that were such state of pre- paredness It would lead, therefore to even greater pressure upon all the countries the world than we have seen in the last two decades, Increase thei armaments"
 Obviously we must act not only today's needs but with view to our own future safety We cannot afford establish any precedent which might make it impossible for the United States at subsequent time to buy supplies abroad in defending ourselves against our We afford jeopardize our own future for the transient whims of welLmeanina the demands Of unreasoning partisans Neither afford do anything prejudical in the long run to the disarmament of the world There could be no sounder argument for standing pat the ssau Iished procedure of nations recognized Legitimate even by the German government and maintaining open markets for munitions of war.
