Representative Kelley questioned
Admiral Badger as to the net result
Of the fivc-year building program ad-
voeated by President Wilson. He
asked IL II actually meant any in
crease whatever over the old con-
grcssional policy of two capital ships
a year. The admiral was inclined to
think not. but later aereed with Il
statement OF Representative Gala
way that under the old two-ships-a-
year program, il would take eight
years To authorize sixteen ships and
at least eleven years to build them as
against eight years under the five
year plan. Chairman padgett saio
the net result of the capital ship pro-
gram urged by the administration was
to add six battle cruisers and main
tain the old rate Of building dread
naughts.
Admiral Badger urged, however.
that the ARRANGEMENT of the five-year
board would produce the ships two
or three years before the administra-
tion schedule and without going be-
yond the stipulated appropriation Of
800, 900, 000 a year for new construc-
ton. Under the boards plan congress
would be asked to authorize four
dreadnaughts and three battle cruis-
ers this year instead of two of each
as proposed by the president.

THE ARIZONA THEATER is nc

THE ARIZONA THEATER is not only starting off big this week, but will end up in the proverbial blaze of glory. For the lead bill, Manager Mace has secured Orrin Johnson in DAT tagnan' No school boy, let alone the average grown person. has failed to read The Three Musketeers" and in that ease, all are familiar with the low able and yet swashbuckling D'Artag- nan. It is impossible to read of his prodisous feats, without wishing to at least emulate him in some way. He is one of the famous characters of both history and fiction. The DAT tagnan" picture follows closely the lines laid down in Dumas novel. The ad- ventures through which the youthful Eero passes on his eventfu1 trip to Paris, his joining of the kings muske- teers his trip to England for the queen saries, all make a thrilling and pie furesque drama. "D'Artagnan" will be at the Arizona today and tomorrow cnly In addition to this will be showr a comedy entitled "Fido's Fate"
 On Tuesday only, beautiful Pauline Frederick, the heroine of ZazZa" will be at the Arizona in a Famous Play CTS adoption of Henry Arthur Jones' charming story Lydia Gilmore" If the impression has ever been gained that Miss F'redericks could only inter- pret such parts as the villainess in Zazza and Bella Donna, it is a wrong one, as can be easily proven when she is seen in Lydia Gilmore Tn this picture, she plays an entirely different type of woman, the loyal wife and de- voted mother. On Tuesday only, Man ager Mace has secured a Keystone Comedy with Roscoe Arbuckle and Mabel Normand, in He Did and He Didn't" Roscoe is cast as a doctor probably the only thing he has never attempted 10 initiate before.
 The real big feature of the week though, is Geraldine Farrar celebrated pr;ma donna in the Jesse L. Lasky photodramatic version of "Tempta- tion.' OF Thursday. Friday and Sat urday. In this picture written for her especially by Hector Turnbull, she is seen in a totally different characteri- zation than in Carmen. She. takes the part of d true and sympathetic sweet heart of a poor composer. As Renee Dupree, the cafe singer, who is offered the triumphs and giories of an oper- atic career. but spurns them rather than lose her swcetheart's love, this brilliant woman is seen at her best Gone is the thirst for excitement, the shrug and smirk of the adventures, and instead is the deep affection, sym pathy and respect of sincere woman. It is one of her greatest works, and will undoubtedly live as long and have as great a career as Carmen"

MUSICAL BENsONS ARE PLEAS ING HUGE CROWDS AT AMUZU

AmuZu fanS VIII IlnQ at that house today what all who heard them yester-
 day pronounce the best vaudeville act
 to visit Phoenix this season. The Mus
 ical Bensons are booked for tomorrow
 also and will appear at five perform
 ances today. They will show twice ill
 the afternoon at 200 and again at
 3:30. Three shows will be given at
 night, one at seven, again at eight
 ard one at nine. The Musical Bensons
 offer an act that is very much out of
 the ordinary as musical acts go. They carry for the skit some several hundred
 pounds of excess baggage which is
 composed of odd musical instruments.
 Bells, silver chimes, organ bells, alum
 mum harp. trombone and brass instru-
 ments. They play duets, solos ane
 trios with the piano accompaniment.
 Their act is direct from the Hippo
 drome of Los Angeles where they were
 one of the features of two weeks past.
 They should be especially pleasing to
 the ladies and children as the act is
 devoid. of anything that would offend the best.
 THE uAMARA THEATRE offers for
 he first two days of the week "The Marble Heart" which was shown yes- terday, and which as Fox feature has been receiving much favorable mention all over the country. It has the pro- duction brains of Herbert Brenon be- hind it and was made in the West In- dies where MT. Brenon is working with the great Fox companies in get ting out some of the most marvellous motion pictures that have ever been
 made. The present story stars Violet Horner and Walter Miller. Miller is we'll known to picture fans by reason of his connection for so long with the Biograph company. but Miss Horner, a beautiful and attractive woman and a splendid actress is practically making | her picture debut in this filming The story is the triangle again and as such | shows the dealings of man and a
 woman after they have conspired and 1 made away with the womans husband
 and married each other. The way that
 fate works the matter out and brings l just punishment upon both of the guilty parties makes the picture if
 gruesome. at least one of great interest. | Molly Mcintyre, of "Bunty Pulls the | Strings fame will be seen in the first picture in which she has appeared on Tuesday and Wednesday when the
 most recent Equitable release, Her
 Great Hour" will be shown. Her Great
 Hour" is peculiarly applicable to the l great hour which comes to the hero
 inc of the piece, Miss Molly Mcintyre, after her trials and tribulations follow ing an unjust accusation of having
 stolen a ring from the stock of a de- pertinent store where she was em- ployed. The plot of the play is well worked out by it's author and director, s. B. V. Taylor. and brings to a log | ical conclusion and happy ending the | result of straightforward honesty and ] a lot of self-sacrifice when pitted
 against the machinatiOns and plots of

The result is that, as years advance,
they hold tenaciously to their positions
because there is no other avenue Of oc-
cupation. They must continue to teach
school or become dependent upon others
for their maintenance. And so they
stay in the ranks, losing ground stead
lily as their faculties are impaired by
the hand of time. Their class work de-
teriorates, their powers of supervision
grow less efficient. and finally they are
definitely cold teachers regarded with
sympathy and consideration by those in
authority. but actually standing in the
way of promotions and changes making
for higher efficiency in the service. They
cannot be removed without the grossest
injustice. Their own retirement pro-
visions in Washington are wholly made

merely to individuals in the teaching

The Mishap to the Deutschland.

When the Deutschland slipped away
from her moorings early yesterday
| morning after stay of sixteen days at
/ New London. it seemed likely that she
would get off in better form, with Il
fairer prospect of a successful return
voyage, than on her first eastward trip
from Baltimore. Misfortune. however,
halted her before she had reached the
international line and forced her re-
turn to her berth. Although the tug
she struck was sunk Immediately with
loss of life. the Deutschland sustained
the shock without serious injury. The
exact extent of her hurt is not dis
closed. and probably will not be, but
the report is that she will soon proceed
hap.
Suspicion Immediately was aroused
that an attempt had been made to de-
stroy the Deutschland, but this has APP
parently been disproved. as the an
noumcement is made at New London that
the collision was the result of an acct
dent The inquiry there, however. is be-
ing held in secret. No reason is given
for this unusual practice. When vessels
collide, with loss of life. the matter is
of public importance and the investi-
cation should be held in the open. The
fact that the Deutschland is a subma-
rine cargo boat raises no such novelty
of condition as to justify secret proce

House Procedure.

Some very interesting speculation
runs upon lines of House procedure in
ease the republicans organize the new
body.
There is the matter of naming the
committees. The democrats long con-
tended that by taking the power out of
the Speakers hands and placing it in
q committees hands an Improvement
would result. Accordingly, when they
came in they made the change. But can
it bc said that an improvement resulted?
Is IL not a safe assertion that Mr.. Clark,
an experienced and fair man, would
have made as good selections as did the
committee to whose hands the duty was
Entrusted! The probability is that Sc
lrctions made by him would have been
~ the main the same as those made by
f'lc committee. Seniority of service and
tlmiliarity with House work would have
influenced him as they did the com
mittee.
Next is the matter of freedom of de-
late. The democrats contended that
this had been too much restricted by
the republicans; that czardom had
been established. They insisted upon
change, and promised to make one If
invested with power. But they did not
make the change. In the Houses they
have controlled the majority has as
serted itself as much as it did in the
previous Houses. The committee ON
rules has responded whenever the lead
ers have given the signal for closing de-
bate, and the committees reports have
been adopted. There has been as much
of majority power as the majority de-
sired; and when it comes to the exer-
else of power all majorities are very
much alike.
Mr. Clark, unlike his predecessors in
the Speakers chair, has been simply
presiding officer. He has filed the
place most acceptably to both sides, and
is trusted by both. But that he would
have been quite as acceptable as
Speaker on the old lines is beyond
doubt. His long service as legislator,
his large knowledge of men and his
demonstrated all-around ability in poll
ties would have carried him through
easily.
Republican control, if finally estab-
sished. carries with it the suggestion of
Mr.. Mann for Speaker. He, too, is
seasoned legislator, a good judge of
men and fair and firm in his dealings.
He stands for the best on his side of
the fence AS Speaker, ON either the
old lines or the new, he would score
we'll, give both sides a square deal and
to the extent of his power expedite
business
