TEMPORARY NAVY OF 100000
Between Now and End Of War Depart
ment Will Have Time to Care
fully Consider Situation.

Washington.--Althou the navy
department has placed itself on rec
ord as being opposed to launching
new builing programs which would
to none in the world" it is in favor
OF rushing to completion all capital
ships already authorized and OF main
tanning temporarily at least, force
of men capable ofhandling "any emer-
gency which might arise"
Secretary Daniels, continuing his
testimony before the house naval af-
fairs committee, read a communica-
.ion fromthe general board which rec
commended that the 10 battleships and
six battle cruisers authorized in the
1916 program should be completed as
soon as possible
Recommendation was made by the
secretary that provision be made in
the 1920 appropriation bill for q navy
of 100000 men, only $4,000 less than
are now in the service. He asserted
that unless this number was author
lied. the navy would be unable to aid
materially in bringing American
troops home from Europe and in addi-
tion would be dangerously weak
ened."
Mr.. Daniels emphasized that the
navy department did not intend to ask
Congress at this time for a permanent
navy OF 250,000 men but only for a
temporary force large enough to take
care OF the work arising in the tran
sition period between war and peace.
Between now and the end OF the war,
the secretary said, the department
would have time to study carefully
the situation and arrive at a definite
conclusion as to the country's needs.

PEACE TERMS NOT SEVERE

Washington.-Lack OF severity OF

was criticised by Senator Poindexter.

ter written to a constituent and made
public by the senator.
"Foch was right" said Senator
Poindexter in his letter "The French
have been fortunate enough to pro-
duce several men in this war who
combined the genius of great soldiers
and great statesmen Foch is one.
I am very sorry that the United States
was humiliated by having a self ap-
pointed representative, who used the
control of finance and of food OF this
great nation to ameliorate the terms
to be imposed upon Germany. There
are times when softness is not in the
interest OF humanity and civilization
and this was one of those times"

GREAT OBJECT ACCOMPLISHED
Twentieth Century Transportation

Washington.-Blazi the way Of
the first air trail from the western to
the eastern hemisphere, the United

Lieutenant Commander Albert Chus-

elapsed flying time from New Found

At the first opportunity the big
plane will continue to Plymouth, IT'S
nautical miles to the north. To the
navy department, however. it makes
little difference when he completes
the journey. The great object Of all
the effort lavished on the undertak-
ing, navigation of a seaplane across

been accomplished. Twentieth CEN

navy has led the way.
Navy officials emphasized that the
long delay at the Azores was due to
the weather and to no weakness OF
the machine or it's daring crew.

MEXICAN MATTERS

Carranza Government Asks Permis-

Washington.-Villaf forces have pro-
claimed General Felipe Angeles pro-
visional president OF Mexico and Villa

The move. coming at the climax Of
military operations considered by the
Carranza government so serious that
it has asked the United States for

regarded here as rejecting a situa-

the situation is regarded as full of

1t does on the heels OF the refusal of

Americans in Chihuahua.
Acting Secretary Polk announced
that he had notified the Mexican

Columbia.
w. P. Pollock, Of Cheraw, former
United States Senator, spent the night

capital to deliver an address at the
commencement exercises of Chicora
College. Mr.. Pollock is keenly inter.
ested in various questions now press

Tor political recognition.
Should Mr.. Pollock be a member of
the next state Democratic convention
he will ask the party to grant the
white women Of the State the right
to participate in the primaries. The
state owes this to the women, not
only as right, he says, but as q
proper recognition OF their patriotic
service during the Great War, which
could never have been won so early
without their unfiagging zeal and en-.
thusiasm.
Mr.. Pollock advances a new idea to
restrict the negro's participation in
politics. He would base registration
on legitimacy Of birth. extending back
three generations.
Concerning the proposed constitu
tional amendment, Mr.. Pollock said:
eff such an amendment to the con
stitution OF the several Southern
States were adopted. the race ques
-tion- would be practically solved. Nc
one should object to such a provision
as It would not only solve this vital
question, but it would place ban on
inegitfmacy and would encourage
marriage and the keeping of the fam
lily relation sacred
The former senator believes cotton
will be selling from 33 1-3 to So cents
within the immediate future. Not
only does he expect this crop to sell
above figures now obtaining but also

Mr.. Overman is quoted as follows:
In my opinion the league of ma

sue, 1t should be entirely nonpartisan;
those OF every political party should
join in and support it from purely pa
triotic motives.
1T is a mistake to try and limit it's
support to those OF one political faith.
II am somewhat surprised at the
action of the democratic national COM
mittee. In any event it can have no
