foreign aggression. That is the
kind of navy we have endeavored
to provide in the bill which has
just passed the House.
In that connection it might be
well to note that during the three
years of the Wilson administrat-
ion we have authorized the con-
construction of additions to the
navy which are of greater fight
ing power than all the additions
authorized by the Republican
party during the twelve years Of
the Mckinley and Roosevelt ad-
ministrations.
IN A NUTSHELL: The RE-
CORDS show that Wilson has
gone four times as far in build
ing UP the navy as did Mr.. Roose
welt when that gentleman was
supreme in Washington.
4 OF course, the navy / have de-

OUR NAVY EFFICIENT
The debate on the naval bill con-
firmed what / have often said in
these letters that, gun for gun
and ship for ship, we have the
most effective navy in the world
Every one admitted, for in
stance that our dreadnoughts the
Pennsylvania and the Oklahoma,
were superior to any war vessels
afoat, Those two ships could
probably Outright the entire fleet
which Roosevelt sent around the
world during the closing years of
his administration.
While building up the navy we
did not overlook the necessity
for taking the profits out Of
war" We appropriated 81. 900
600 to construct a government
armor plate factory, thus sound
ing the death-knell of the plunder
ing armor-plate trust which has
had this country by the throat
for quarter of a century. We
set aside Sc, 600. 600 to equip our
navy yards so they may be util-
lied for the construction of war
ships of the largest types. This
was a hard blow at the ship-build
ing trust, which has been count
ing on wringing enormous profits
out OF the new naval building
programe.
We also pro sided for building
of a large projectile factory, and
experimental laboratory and for
the enlargement of the mechani-
cal department of existing navy
yards. We did all this in the
face of the stubborn opposition
of the ''standpat'' eliment.
Seine of the votes were uncom-
fortably close. but we always
had safe margin.
When the other appropriation
bills come up we expect to p c
vide additional facilities for gov
ernment manufacture of NUM-
tions.

THE BEST PROVISION
OF ALL

The most inspiring provision
in the bill, however, was insert
ed at the suggestion of Repre-
sentative Hensley Of Missouri.
1t provides that at the conclus
ion of the European War the Pres
ident shall invite all the great
governments of the earth to send
representatives to a conference
which shall be charged with the
duty of suggesting some plan by
which disputes between nations
may be referred to a proper tribu
nal for peaceful settlement. The
conference is also to formulate a
scheme for international disarm-
mament.
AS an evidence of the good
faith of the United States. the
bill authorizes the President.
whenever he is convinced that
the object of the proposed con-
ference has been attained. to pro
ceed with the reduction of our
naval and military establish
ments.
Thus, while donning the armor
of defense. America appeals to
war-worn Europe to abandon the
policy which has drenched a world
with blood of brothers and return
ed to the paths of peace. God
grant that the appeal may not be
made in vain!

PLAYERS FRATERNITY
 WATCHING CONTRACTS
By HAMILTON

NEW YORK, Sept. 20.-Any at tempt on the part of baseball mag mates to slash wholesale at contracts terminating this year will be strongly opposed by the Players fraternity, David L. Futz, president of the or ganization declared today in a inter- view with the United Press.
 Plans already have been made to combat such an attempt, but Fultz refused to make public the outline of battle.
 The fraternity expects the mag mates to make some attempt to cut salaries which were boosted when the Federal League was causing so much trouble. Since then many of the stars whose salaries went to new high marks have faltered and are doing no shining at all. In spite of this the big pay is going right along and most of 1t on long term contracts.
 Many contracts have salaries stipu- lated in them while others do not. Some of them merely quote salaries for one year, with a provision that the following year shall see the same salaries paid while still others quote salaries for one year with no provrs- ion for the other years at all.
 It is at this point, Fultz said, where the most of the trouble will come. All the contracts contain the reserve clause which holds players over for the club another year. Where the reserve mentions the play CTS salary and an attempt is made to make a radical reduction, the fratern- ity is going to take a hand. It will not stand for indiscriminate slashing.
 Fultz said that many times mag mates have attempted to tear up old contracts which bound them to good salaries for players and to execute new ones with smaller sum stipulated.
 "We always have recourse to the commission in cases like this,' he said, "and in every instance the com mission has ordered the club to live up to its old contract. It does not like
