SHIPS 800 FEET LONG
New Super-Battle Cruisers to Make
Speed of 35 Knots.

Washington, Oct 2o.-General
characteristics of the super-battle
program approved by the general
board contemplate ships nearly 500
feet long, between 80 and 100 feet in
beam and six turbine-driven pro-
pellers to make a speed of 35 knots
in an hour.
Even the new fleet of scout cruisers
will not equal the battle cruisers in
speed. The former will be DESIGNED
to maintain for long periods a speed
of 25 knots, endurance rather than
great speed being the object sought.
Few of the new destroyers will
make over 80 knots an hour and one
of the six, for which contracts were
let yesterday, viii make 80 knots.

TRY TOPEKA PLAN
Commissioner WATSON Found
Interest in Bonds.
Now Kansas Towns Will Sell to
Local Investors.

The Topeka method of selling mu-
nicipal bonds is being adopted by
other cities and the more generally
the method becomes known, the more
quickly it is adopted. The method
now followed by Topeka in selling the
city bonds was adopted four years ago.
Now many of the cities of Kansas fol-
low the policy and others are asking
questions, according to w. H. WATSON,
city commissioner of finance.
WATSON attended the state meeting
of the Kansas League of Municipali-
ties, held in Hutchinson last week
He delivered an address on the sub
ject of marketing city bonds locally.
Before / had chance to talk be-
fore the meeting I was kept busy with
representatives of other cities who
hunted me up and asked questions. 1
was kept so busy 1 did not have time
to get away from the meetings--didn't
have chance to visit with any friends
and was kept right On the job all the
time. While / was answering QueS-
tions I also asked some and learned a
good many things of value to Topeka
and 1 believe that the city made a
good Investment by having represen-
tatives there to exchange experiences
with officials of other cities
"Of tie 123 cities represented, a
great many have adopted the Topeka
plan of financing bond issues and
none of them reported any difficulty
IN Sel1nS their ponds to their own
people and thus eliminating commits
sions, and saving accrued interest by
selling only as many at one time as
might be needed to meet Immediate
payments on monthly estimates of
contractors.
The Topeka way is spreading and
in a short time I think the method
first adopted by Topeka will be fol-
lowed generally
AT the next meeting of the league
delegates wishing to boost their own
home towns will not be permitted to
take up as much time on the program
as formerly, if a suggestion made by
WATSON is adopted.
Nearly one and one-half days OF
the time of the convention was taken
up with a roll-call. There were one
hundred and twenty-three cities to re-
spond and each delegate thought he
had to get up and make a speech
telling the others about the good
things of his home town. 1t was time
poorly spent as it crowded out the
consideration of more important mat
ters. I suggested that a committee on
roll-call be appointed for the next
meeting and that this committee per-
NIT only such delegates to talk who
had something beneficial to say L
believe this will be followed at the
next meeting" said WATSON

Paris, May 26.-oficial informa-

They hired a professional sorter and
before the season was over they were

the other committees held one thing

A CAUTION TO THE SMALL
INVESTOR

The collapse of several important
railroad systems in the United
States should be a lesson to people
with small fortunes to invest. There
is many case today where the only
security of a little home has been
the regular dividend turning up every
three months. When that cheerful
messenger of comfort is turned into
its ominous opposite, an assessment
on stock the person who suffers
learns life long lesson. But many
others Of the same type Of people
keep on putting money into equally
hazardous enterprises.
Like the people who are called land
poor, their property may be so blan-
keted by mortgages and debts that
a lot of money must be collected and
laid out If the property is ever to be
put on a paying basis.
When a corporation is distributing
securities over a wide area to the
general public, 1t would promote
sound finance and confidence In the
company, IL 1t would issue bonds and
stock in somewhere near equal pro.
portions. Something In the neigh
borhood of a half OF the property
ought to be represented by bonds
which the stockholders agree to pay
before receiving anything for their
property. Then the rest Of the cap

which may be taken up properly only
by people Of some wealth or expert
ence in finance, and who can afford
to lose II the property goes wrong
There is always a tendency to is.
sue too large part of capitalization
in the form Of bonds. Realizing that
the public regard bonds as safer than
stock, many companies get around
this difficulty by issuing the great
bulk of their capital in the form of
bonds, and with only a small guam
tity OF stock.
You can not make security safe
merely by calling It a bond. The
cautious investor should carefully in
quire whether the proportion Of bonds
to the value of the remaining prop.

ARE THE VETERANS
FORGOTTEN?

1t has long been remarked that the
exercises OF the national Memorial
day, May 80, do not attract anything
like the interest that used to be
manifested in them. Twenty years
ago prominent citizens all through
these functions in large numbers.
There was able oratory and the en-
thusiasm of big crowd. 1t Is a mat
ter of keen regret to the remnant OF
veterans left today, that It is so diff
ficult to get half as good turnout
today.
Various expedients have been tried
to make these obseryances more
popular. They have been held Sun
days and In the evening, instead Of
on the holiday. Some such change
may draw crowd for once. But the
American people are eager for holt
day. They flock to the ball grounds
and the automobile road. The elo-
quence of patriotic speakers resounds
in more or less empty halls.
All which leaves in the mind OF the
Civil War veteran the feeling that he
Is merely a forgotten relic OF a day
that has gone by. While he has been
trying to keep alive the memories OF
the heroisms of the war, the world
current seems IN have sliDDed by and
left him stranded in forgotten past
OF course II would be better II the
American people would give a more
respectful attention to serious OBJ
servances. Still one must take them
as they are. They may leave the
veterans alone with their memories
at the burial ground. But that the ole
soldiers are not forgotten is suggest
ed by the fact that this country has
always maintained a pension system
of generosity that has been unheart
of in other lands.
You can get out hundred people
to agitate for some future benefit
where you could not get ten to cele
brate an event OF history. That Il
our American temperament. II Is II
reverent to the past. But It is a par
Of the restless energy OF our land
always forging ahead, giving perhap
too little thought to the deeds an
struggles of the past.
