When Chairman Padgett, .of the
House naval committee, yesterday
reported the naval appropriation bill
the largest budget for the national
defense ever submitted to Congress
in a single measure was presented.
The bill for the first, line Of defense
of the country carries a total of
s241, 100000. This is an increase of
SCI, 7S7, 2S7 over last years appro-
priation and is due almost entirely
to the increase in the building pro-
gram. The next most important item
in the bill is the provision for the in
crease of the personnel by $4,000
men and an addition to the marine
corps amounting to 3,079 enlisted
men. The plan of the Senate is un-
derstood to be to add two monster
battleships and increase the person
mel by 10000, so that all the ships
that can be put into commission may
be fully manned.

LONGING
FOR PEACE.

AS is suggested by contemporary,
never since the angels sang their
song of good will at Bethlehem has
the world received such glad tidings
of great JOY as will come to it on
the day when the newspapers in ev-
cry quarter of the globe can print
on their front pages the beautiful
word "Pcacc." One thing beyond
dispute is that there is univer-
sal longing for escape from the aw-
full horror of this great -intcrna-
tional tragedy, which Expresses the
souls of humane and thoughtful peo-
pie in this country scarcely less
heavily than it does those of its
European victims. The man or the
men who could be instrumental in
bringing the war to close would
be blessed not only by this genera
ton, but would hold for all future
generations one of the highest 1lac-
es in the long roll of those who have
rendered extraordinary service to
mankind.
Germany has signified her will
ingness to bring the conflict to a
close; but the Allies have apparently
no intention of meeting her on the
basis which she has indicated she is
ready to consider. There is no tell
ing how long the deadlock may con-
tinue.
Perhaps by late fall or by the
Christmas season the dawn Of peace
may be discernible. Possibly it may
come earlier. Everything seems te
depend on Great Britain and Russia
If they are willing to meet Ger,
many half way, then peace will be
gin to materialize. If they persist
in the attitude Of conquerors the
road to Berlin will probably be lone
and bloody 81. Z, *

MEANS WAR.

Theodore Roosevelt means wal.
Every one who aids in his nomination
or, if he should be nominated. shall
aid in his election, will be working to
get this country into war with Mexico
and Germany. Mr.. Roosevelt himself,
and every one. of his shouters is at
lacking President Wilson because he
has not engaged this country III war
onS both sides Sof the ocean.
There is no :mistaking the fact. a

can nomination, and we presume they
also offered him the election, and they
might just as well have offered him
the earth with a fence around it.. A
member Of this precious company OF
fire-eaters was Professor Bingham, Of
Yale, who said:
"When / was in Peru as represen-
tative of the National Geographic
Society found much that didn't
please me. i found that the claim to
American citizenship won no respect.
We were, even accused of stealing
gold there, and our statement that we
were members of the National Geo.
graphic Society apparently was no
claim to consideration. They didn't
have very high opinion of Ameri-
cans there"
The report of the interview Gays:
"The Colonel clapped his hands vigor-
ously" and said:,
"Good for you! ! can't tell you how
much it pleases me to hear you talk
like that. And it is proof of what I
was told by Edmund Heller. He was
in Peru, and he said that they be-
lieved there we were afraid to fight
for our rights, or. with Germany or
Mexico, and that there is no respect
for an American citizen"
The members of the National Geo
graphic Society are not treated with
sufficient respect in Peru because it
is believed there that we are afraid to
fight Germany and Mexico. Of course
there is only one remedy for this
state of things. To secure proper
respect in Peru for members of the
National Geographic Society we have
got to prove that we are not afraid
to fight Germany and Mexico, and
we cannot possibly prove that except
by getting into war with them.
AS the Phiiadelphis Record obser-
yes the demand for war with Ger
many and Mexico is absolutely all
there's behind the Roosevelt candi-
dacy. We have been keeping the peace
there is behind the Roosevelt candi-
President. Peruvians do not pay suf-
fcient homage to members of the
National Geographic Society, because
they believe Americans are afraid to
fight Germany and Mexico. If Mr..
Roosevelt were President and did not
land us in two wars at once he would
be no better than Mr.. Wilson. If
the Peruvians treat members of the
National Geographic Society with
scant respect because they think we
are afraid to fight, the only remedy
is to go to war, and teach the Peru
VANS that they had better give the
sidewalk to members of the National
Geographic Society. If Mr.. Roosevelt
is not pledged to involve this country
in war with Germany and Mexico,
then he is seeking the Republican
under false pretenses.
There is just as much Americanlsm
and just as much patriotism in one
candidate for the nomination, on either
side, as there is in another. The pre-
tense of Mr.. Roosevelt that he alone
among the possible nominees of both
parties is patriot and is imbued
with the spirit of Americanism re-
calls the immortal phrase of Dr..
Johnson regarding some other men
who were prating of patriotism in
order to promote their political pros
poets: Patriotism is the last refuge
of scoundrels.
