SMALL NAVY MEN IN
CONGRESS PLAN TO
FIGHT BIG BUDGET

Washington, Now 20.-All the bu-
reau chiefs of the navy, as we'll as Sec
rotary Daniels, hav been asked to APP
pear at the hearings begun before the
house committee on naval affairs today
as a preliminary step toward framing
next years naval appropriation bill
Early indications point to another con-
gressional battle oyer the amount of
money to be appropriated for the build
ing of ships.
Although many cbRgressmen believed
that the 1916 act, with it's five-year
program and a tctal of $500, 900, 600 and
more, was the extreme limit in naval
budgets, there is every possibility that
the forthcoming bill may touch the
100000, 900 mark. 1t is expected that
the small navy men will put up the
same hard fight against the increased
appropriation that was made against
the preparedness Program in the Six
ty-fourth congress-.

HELEN KELLER TO
WE'D HER SECRETARY?

Boston, Nov. o. In the face of en-
phatic denials of all principals involved
but with positive statements from 9TH
err sources. that Peter Pagan and Miss
Helen Keller had planned to be mar
ried if their engagement could be kept
secret, Boston speculated today on
whether the remarkable deaf, dumb and
blind woman had sacrificed love for the
friendship of her lifelong companion,
Mrs. Annie Macy, the woman who
taught her to use her voice. Through
Registrar Edward MeGlenen. of the city
hall, the story leaked out today that a
man answering tho description of Fa-
gan, who has been Miss Keller's secre-
ltary for several months applied ten
days ago for license to marry the
noted woman.

TO EVACUATE
NONAST|R
CONTINUED from first Pageo

rim of the bowl.
Since the opening of the campaign in
the Rumanian theater, which is re-
garded here as the decisive theater of
the whole war front, it was considered
a correct decision strategically and tao
tically not to call upon the defenders
for heavy sacrifices and efforts to hold
the town itself
Politically. of course. various con-
siderations urged that efforts be made
to retain Monastir, not only because
its possession by the entente allies
would give the Serbian. government a
local habitation in Serbian territory
and encourage General Sarrall, COM
mander of the entente allied opera
tions in the Balkans, to press the
campaign, but also for its political
effect in general.
T. The retirement of the Germans and
Bulgars would have the effect of bring
ing the attacking forces away from
their line of communication and into
the almost roadless region Of south
western Macedonia, and the defending
forces correspondingly nearer their
base of communications. Members of
the general staff insist that the loss
of Monastir can be regarded as only
of local Importance and without effect
on the general strategic situation.
