4 writer in an English journal has
suggested that the next great war will
be between man and the insect world.
This war would be waged not only on
insects that actually attack man him.
self, but also ON all those winged or
creeping things that are his enemies in
less direct ~ways-those species that, to
use the writer's phrase, exist at the
expense of human progress and happi-
ness"
We all shudder with horror at the
thought of a scorpion OF Of a centipede,
although few of us eve see one of
them, but we do not shudder enough at
the thought of the untold millions of
disgusting things that we are putting
up with all the time.
Perhaps 1t is unfortunate for us that
many of these harmful and even death
dealing insects are very small. If they
were as large as they are bad we
should soon rid ourselves of them.
When we see the househy or the mos
quito hugely magnifed we realize at
once that, compared with them struc-
turally, the tiger is a charming and
beautiful thing, but we go away and
forget the magniied picture and sub
NIT to the original of it.
The determination of these pests is a
duty that the world faces, a righteous
crusade in which we should all join.
The scientists will tell US the best way
to wage the fight, but scientific meth
DDS must be REINFORCED by a public
opinion that will cease to tolerate un-
clean dwellings,, stagnant pools, uncoy-
cred tanks, documulatlons Of exposed
filth and everything else that invites
yermin and menaces human beings.

GREATER DEFENSE
 BILL IS SHAPING

(Continued From Page One) S24. .694.496: three scout cruisers at $6.747,145 each: 15 destroyers et $I,74S.612 each: one destroyer tende. at $2.SOS 900: one submarine tender at S2.199,4 400. and eighteen 500 ton type submarines at S1,434. .093 each. The program is that recommended by the department and represents one half of the remaining portion O. the three year program approved last year
 The committee departed from the departments recommendations only in the type of submarines provided for No small coast defense submarines are authorized last year. the commit tee raised the limit of cost for hull and machinery to $19,000,000 from SIG, 100000. Department officials be- lieve all four vessels can be placed with private bidders at that figure. The committee also needed, however. Secretary Daniels recommendations that navy yards be fitted to build large numbers of capital ships, au- thorizing the expenditure of an addi tional S12,O00,000 for that purpose in the event the department is unable to make satisfactory contracts for any vessel in the present bill or left from the preceding measure. This would make available a total of $1S,000. .000 for equipping navy yards.
 For the three scout cruisers still awaiting satisfactory bids. the con- mittee raised the cost for hull and machinery to S6,00O.OO0 from S5.OOO,- 900. One vessel was ordered from the Seattle Construction company some months ago at the lower figure, but no other bids were received.
 Another new provision to be made from the enlisted personnel of the navy from 9 to 100. Appointments may De made whenever vacancies oc. cur
 The new battleships will be the most powerful war vessels ever built They will have a speed of 23 knots an hour and carry main batteries of twelve 16-inch guns instead of the eight 16-inch guns on the four au. thorized last year.
