The Larger Navy Bill

As ruIe It seems that the United States senate pays
more heed to the needs of the nation as whole than
members the house of representatives whose ears seem
tuned almost wholly the voices OF their various small
constituencies Perhaps it works out well in the end
the houses being balanced against each other IN such
way as often TO throttle legislation too radical one way
another.
In the case of the naval appropriation bill, one pro
vision of which is for the construction of waTshps 1t
seems that the senate's provision should become

gram than that Of the house. and better designed
for the defence of the country
The senate has voted the construction of 1877 ships
Of various types and classes during the next three years.
of which four dreadnoughts and four baecruse1s are
TO be placed under construction next year.
The bill as it passed the house, provided for total
program of only u ships of which only i've we're 20 be
capital ships Of those five, all we're to be battle
cruisers.
The senate has followed exactly the recommendation
of rear admiral knight of the naval college N voting
four dreadnoughts four battle cruisers for next year
evidently considering admiral Knight highly trained
and capable officer alive the navys requirements and
better able to pass upon them than any civilian That
view is right
In reconcing the house and senate bills, It IS likely
the compromise program will provide smaller number
of ships than the senate bill and rather than the
house BILL though the senate bill is undoubtedly much
better suited to the country's needs
The Pacific coast may consider itself sighted IN this
legislation since no provision is to be made for main

senators desired However 1t is well that amendment

francis BACON was an English
~ author whose principal by-product
i was the works of William shaks-

body supposed that William was able
20 do his own writing, and as result

a low spirited bust of SHAKESPEARE and
his well known goatee. standing erect
on the mantel. and also by nine foot
set of his words which will not be
fully paid I'D until August. 1913
1t was a great shock TO the world
at large when it was discovered IN
Chicago that Shakspere was written
by somebody else The blame was
finally placed upon lord Bacon. who
was not aware of it at the time and
is now too much deceased to collect
any back royalties. This teaches US
that we should sign our names TO
everything we write, including the
anonymous letter.
Lord Bacon was the son of another
English lord who was not able 10
sidestep the title. He was one of the
smartest boys England ever produced,
and at Is years of age knew more
about law and the proper size of a
retaining fee than many of his elders.
