Declares Bond Issue to
Pay for Them Would
Be Justified.
SAYS EVERY YARD
SHOULD BE USED
Maximum Preparedness" for
War Advocated by Men Emil
nent in All Professions.
From The Tribune Bureau ]

Washington, Nov. 16.-Emergency
measures for the increase of the navy
were recommended at a meeting of the
directors Of the Navy League here 20
day The President and Congress were
called on 70 lay down at once as many
warships of all classes as the ship
yards Of the United States could haL-
die, and to authorize a bond issue, If
necessary, to pay for them.
The resolutions said that the great
est need Of a strong American navy
would be felt at the close of the Euro
pean war. and that every effort should
be made 10 construct the greatest pos
sible number of ships as soon as 1t
was physically possible.
The President was summoned TO cal
q council of national defence TO devise
the measures necessary for realization
of the maximum preparedness for war
and 10 coordinate the elements Leces-
sary for adequate defence. The Re
believes that the lack of such coun-
Gil is a serious obstacle to the devel-
opment of the army and navy:
The meeting was held in the home OF
Colonel Robert NJ. Thompson, presi-
dent of the league. Besides the d.Iec-
tors and officers of the league, eminent
men in the professions and industries
of the United States were present.
The consensus of opinion of the con-
ference was expressed by ex-governor
Emmett ONeal, of Alabama. The United
States will not be satisfied" said Mr..
ONeal. with anything less than the
construction as quickly as possible OF
the greatest possible number OF hghtlng
ships which the country's shipyards can
produce. The emergency which we nave
to face is here, and promises to grow
more acute during the next two or three
years. If we pass through that period
without being attacked, the war VIII
probably be over, Europe will have re-
adjusted itself, and the great immediate
emergency will probably have passed,
and with it the special need for de-
fences"
"In justice TO our country. we must
demand a navy not five or ten years
from now, but at the earliest possible
moment at which all the shipyards and
machine shops of the country can pro-
duce it. The only way we can get
ships quickly and in the necessary
quantity is to lay down at once as
many as the shipyards of the country
can accommodate and see 70 it that
work on them is rushed with all pos
sible speed.
Foreign shipyards are able to build
dreadnoughts within periods of six
teen and eighteen months, and il IS
said that since the beginning Of the
war even these records have been
greatly surpassed. | refuse to believe
that American designers and American
workmen will be found unable TO equal
. the records made abroad 1t may be
necessary that the United States spend
more money 70 secure such speed in
building ships, but believe that the
present days of crisis and emergency
are no time to count pennies"

sounded some song that had within it

vague, mysterious romance.
He was the great Franz Liszt-the

of Beauty there on a strange

gypsy song. For years its weird and
clinging melody had haunted him.
Always had it been in his mind, thrilling
him with its strange beauty. 1t had
drawn him to that lonely spot, far from
the triumph of courts and palaces. He
had come to sojourn thereto share the
gypsies' thoughts and lives-to learn the
wondrous secret of their songs.

by every means in our power. The
one lesson the war has taught us is
that We cannot expect to sell goods
abroad on a large scale unless we bay
on a similar scale. Already We have
found that to hold our trade with
Europe We have had to lend her the
money to make purchases here. These
loans, of course, must be repaid. and
the only way that they can be repaid
Is by an echange of goods when Eu-
ropes industries resume normal op-
eratiOns.
We have recently been boasting that
we had become the worlds banker;
that instead of being a debtor nation
we had become a creditor nation If
We wish to hold that proud position
We must become a large importer of
goods. for naturally, a creditor nation
is larger importer than an exporter

CURRENT THINKING
COMMERCIAL PREPAREDNESS.


(Boston P0st)
Coincident with the nation wide
agitation for military preparedness,
the necessity for which the European
war has brought home to us. an
equally insistent demand has arisen
from certain quarters for prepared
ness against a commercial invasion.
1t is urged that the moment Europe
stops fighting, commercial attack
upon the United States will begin with
a flood of low-priced goods which
will put our factories out of bust
ness. OF course, the method Of de
fence" proposed against this attack
is to rebuild our tariff wall higher
than ever
/, is easy to trace this commercinI
preparedness propaganda to the cap
italistic interests that see in the pres
ent situation a fine excuse for de.
manding back the big bQunties they
used to get before our tariff wall WAS
scaled down by the present admins
tration But right now is good
time to find out what interests are
seeking protection from European
competition from fear that they can
not compete with Europe when this
war Is over.
When the war ends the outlook is
for our business structure to be n
better shape than it ever was before
while Eurppes will be terribly disor'
ganlzed With a tremendous debt
piled Zip not only to her own citizen'
but also to us. with the very serious
problem Of slowly disbanding hei

changing back her factories from the
business Of munition making tf
peaceful pursuits, me sort Of CON

PENDLETON HAS NEED OF
HER DEFENDERS

I'm this mayoralty campaign
there has been a supera-
bundance of material with
which to fight DR.. Best. His
personal record is open to dam
aging attack in a hundred
places. The East OregOnian
has probably been recreant in
not waging a more aggressive
fight to keep this man from a
position which he is unworthy
to hold.
But it is our fixed policy to
fight political battles in clean,
straight forward manner; to
deal with questions directly at
stake and to make no charges
without having full and con-
vincing proof to Justify the ac-
cusatiOns.
Therefore our energies have
been devoted principally to
showing in unanswerable man.
ner the fact that the vice ele-
ment-well classed in this case
as organized vice-has been
behind his candidacy. This
element has been his most COM
pact support and las every
politician knows) will on cleo
ton day be his most valuable
asset.
~ iith these conditions thus
clearly defined and openly ad-
rpitted by DR.. Best, his election
as mayor would be a crowning
disgrace to Pendleton.r II
would be a business blunder.
This is the capital Of an agri-
cultural empire. We should
not play to vice interests. We
should cater to the farmer who
comes here to trade and to
families who locate here be-
cause of school advantages and
other attractions of an up-to-
date town. We can please those
people by providing excellent
schools, good water, and other
desirable civic betterments, To
place the town under bootleg
ger control would mean to in
suit them and drive many from
our midst.
The good name Of Pendleton
and the true prosperity Of the
town are involved in the cleo
ton Monday. As Judge Lowell
has said the defeat Of Mr..
Montgomery would be a pub
lie misfortune" It would mean
a moral and commercial set
back at a time when all ener-
gies should be devoted to FUR
thering the cause Of progress
and contentment.
AS to the outcome, the East
OreRonian has such faith in
the people Of Pendleton it is
confident Of Mr.. Montgomery $
election. But there is an ele-
ment back Of DR.. Best that can
deliver a heavy vote and they
are straininR every nerve in hl'
behalf. Il is no time to take
chances. The election may be
close and every decent vote is
needed. There is a heavy un.
registered vote and there are
some people not fully reused
to the danger Of the situation.
