APAN-AMERICAN NAVY.

Strategists of the United States navy
want a "two-power navy"-leaving
Great Britain out of the calculation.
That means a sea force able to cope
with any two foreign navies in the
world, if one of them is not that of
Great Britain. This is an adoption, so
far as these strategists are concerned.
of the British sea policy modified and
amounts to nothing more than sea
power rivalry with Great Britain I'M
der another name. Its adoption by
Congress would start a warship build
ing campaign in which Great Britain
would of necessity be a factor. because
it may as well be understood now as
later that she is not going to make the
United States an exception to her pol
icy.
There is no doubt that some Euro
pean nations-Certainly most of the
important ones-do not like the Mon
roe doctrine and there is TO certainty
that there will never be a combination
of nations to break it down. The great
war now raging has shown the world
that permanent peace need not be en-
pected to begin for man, many years
and that the American republics can
not safely assume they will never
again be at war. The American ma
tons, while possessing much that Eu-
rcpean nations desire, are compare .
lively weak in defenses; what more
natural, then, than that they should
think Of pooling their forces to pre-
vent aggression from the Old World?
Suggestions of this sort have been
running through all the talk about

Pan-Americanism in the last few
weeks. 1t may be that realization Of
their helplessness except for the pro-
lection the United States can give
them has been more vivid in Latin
American minds since the great war
began than it ever was before and has
made them reader to talk of closer
bonds between their nations and the
United States. Whatever the reason,
it is certain that the American repub-
lies are drawing closer together than
before, and there is less evidence Of
distrust of each other. The Monroe
doctrine, instead of being regarded by
some of them as an unwarranted in
reference with their affairs by he
United States, is apparently regarded
everywhere among them now as their
shield.
All of this has naturally led to the
thought that there will some day be a
military agreement among the Ameri-
can nations for concerted action
against foreign aggression; the fleets
of Brazil, Argentina and Chile, for ex-
ample, holding themselves ready to act
as squadrons of the United States
navy and their armies ready to act in
unison with the United States army. If
these three South American nations
continue to build great warships, a
Pan-American agreement for defensive
purposes, with greater naval "pre-
paTedness" on the part of the United
States. would create a great Pan-Am~
erjcan fleet that certainly would be
second to none other than Great
Britain and might in few years chal-
lengr comparison with her navy as
well. But that the United States alone
should try to outbuild Great Britain
On the sea is a suggestion that Con-
gress and the people of the United
States will not approye.-Savannah

And, therefore it came to pass,
when the seven fat years had been full
filled, that there arose those among the
people who cried with one voice: Be
hold, the years of famine and darkness
ere upon US"
2-And straightway they did crawl
into dark caves, and pulled the caves
in after them, and did shut out the
sunlight
3-And they lamented with many
lamentations, saying: The years of
darkness have come and the sun hides
his face from the children of men,"
4-Then came others who were wise
in that generation, and did beat upon
the stones that were rolled before
those caves wherein the calamity
howlers howled, and cried unto them
to come forth, saying: Behold the
sun still shines, and thy crops ripen
| fast unto the harvest, and shall an
other reap in thy fields where thou
hast sown?"
But the jewellers in darkness
cried to them hence, saying: "Know
ye not that darkness is pom the land
ard we cannot see; nay, verify, even
the hands before our eyes?
6-"Here now will we abide, for we
have little provisionu, but enough only
to suffice for our own needs during
the dark days, and when we behold
the sun again, then shall we come
forth and till the fields, but not yet,
nor soon"
And those who were without held
counsel together saying: None are
so blind as those who will not see,
ard wherefore shall we not gather to
ourselves the ripe grain of these our
s.ghtless brethren which lies ready to
our sickles? Then shall we have all
our own and twofold more, and when
these howlers of the caves are an
hungered, 10, we will jar loose from
htem many shekels for that which
was theem own and they would not
take. And it shall come TO pass that
VIC shall wax fat and our sons shall
wax strong upon the land"
And it was even sol"

THE FARMERS EXCHANGE.

Several days ago the Americas
Times-Recorder casually mentioned in
q news item the necessity for a farm
ers' exchange for Americas. The full
import of the article was not realiz-
ed at the time because of the inability
at the time to properly bring it to the
attention of the public
"A Farmer" noticed the article, and
Immediately wrote the paper an arti-
Gle Of commentator for the sugges-
tiur.
Mr.. Arthur Rylander gave an excel
lent interview, which was published in
the edition of Friday afternoon.
Che farmers are talking the ques-
ton, and the citizens of Americas
the business men, should carefully
look into the question. There is no
doubt but that Americas needs some
r"edium whereby the products of the
farmers of the county could be mar
beted in some intelligent and reason
able manner.
One Sumter county farmer has said
that he attentively heard the plea for
d'versifcation. He left the all-cotton
crop, and during the last year diversi-
fed his crops. His barns are running
c,e1 with corn-more than he can use,
But he can find no quick cash market.
The merchants of the cities, the
newspapers, the government authori-
ties-aIl have preached: Stop plant
Jig cotton. The farmer has heard this
call and some have responded
But we need to diversity in the city.
We need to provide the means where
by the farmer can dispose of his prod
ucts without peddling from store to
store, and from door to door.
The parcel post arrangement in the
Americas postoffic9 has been generally
commended throughout the United
States. 1t is an excellent idea and is
plain proof of the wonderful advant-
ages to be derived in symtematic mar
keting.
We need the same thing on larger
sCale-for Americas. We need place
in this city where the farmer can haul
his wagon load of surplus corn into
Americas and receive the fair market
price in cash.
The farmer cannot be blamed for
everything.
There is a movement on foot in
EAihCl ICdo anu nuulISI equity 10 DTluS
about the necessary exchange which
would satisfy the demands which good
business requires. The farm demon
stration work in Sumter county is ac-
complishing much good, but it can be
made to bring about more and better
results.
The Americas Times Recorder would
be glad to publish statements from
business men and farmers on this
question, and hopes that the day may
be fastened when the Sumter county
farmer can bring his surplus feed
crops to Americas and receive a price
which the market supplies.
