LEWIS TOOK STAGE
RATHER THAN TURF

II took all the tears and pleading
Of the family of Sam Lewis, featured
star in Hello. America" at the Gay
ETY. Theater, this week, to keep that
versatile burlesque comedian from
the life OF a jockey and the parental
authority had to agree on the stage
as a compromise
This fact leaked out today in an
interview with the Gayety star, who,
with Sam DOdy, has brought bur-
lesquc humoF to its crowning point
in this weeks Ninth street house Of
fering.
But this is getting away from the
story about the jockey, and the pa
rents, an everything
Fact is. Lewis was so slow in
growing that everybody in the fam
lily circle believed il would be neces-
sary to send him out in the world via
the freak circus route, TO make his
own living. He had a different idea,
however, and gently broke il to his
father one day. 1t was this: The life
Of a Jockey, following the ponies
around with the big chance.
SO great did the steam brew in the
Lewis family teapot that Sam had 10
abandon the proposition. But the
Junior progidy argued that in order
10 grow up a rich man he would have
10 seek some public place. Finally
the stage was hit upon and no sooner
did the family allow its consent when
Lewis commenced to grow.

vertised for sale. 1t was stated that

fee any vessels merely in order to
dispose OF them.

per cent Of the appraised value of the
vessels, appraisement having been
made by the ocean advisory commits

EXISTING LAWS ARE INADEQUATE ID COPE WITH INFLATED PRICES.
 DECLARES WILSON TO CONGRESS

WASHINGTON, Aug 8 (by Associated Press) )-Presdent Wilson addressed joint session of congress this afternoon at o'clock the high cost of living proposing remedies for the present inflated prices and declaring that the existing laws inadequate to deal with the situation
 The high prices prevalent declared the President not justified by shortage of supplies present prospective bu he said they created in many arciay and de- liberately by the aid of vicious practices.
 The President recommended that the ood-contro act be extended for peacetme operaOn and recommended that 8ress exclude from interstate shipment goods which did not comply with its provisions He recommended that the food law be provided with substantial penalties for proteerng, and suggested federal cod-storage law placing time limit the keeping of food products in cold storage He suggested
 that the prices at which such goods should be sold when leased from cold storage should be identical with the prices prevailing when they entered storage.
 further recommendation made by the President that federal licensing system for corporations engaged in inter- be enacted which would embody regulations to insure competitive selling.
 m conclusion President Wilson urged the ratification of the peace treaty, in order that the country might be speedily stored to peace basis, for he sa there be prices while the nation is on a war basis"

NAVY MAKING MUCH HEADWAY
 IN ARMAMENT

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. ' (by As sociated Press) ).-Advancement of na- val armament from Spanish-American war days to present is shown in the weight of broadside fired from the old battleship Oregon, the largest at the time of the Spanish-American war and from vessels of the Pennsylvania type of the new Pacific fleets.
 The Oregon could fire a broadside of steel projectiles weighing 5,660 pounds. A broadside from the Penn sylvania type with it's 14-inch guns would weigh 17,5OO pounds.
 Future American dreadnaughts and battle cruisers are to mount 16-inch guns. Each projectiIe will weigh g. 100 pounds compared with the 14-inch shells of the Pennsylvania. The broadside from the future battle ships will weigh a total of 25,2OO pounds, more than four times the size of an Oregon broadside.
 The new ships will be the heaviest armed ships in the world. The 16- inch guns were developed during 1918 and proved satisfactory in every res pect
 The largest guns on the Atlantic fleet in it's cruise of 1907-1908 around the world, was 12-inch. The greatest number of these on any single ship was four against the batteries of twelve 14-inch guns on the more pow erful dreadnaughts of Admiral Hugh Rodman's new Pacific feet The 12- inch gun had a maximum effective range of 10000 yards against the 22,00O yard Rodman guns. The fleet of ten years ago, naval officers say, would be helpless against even a small part of the Pacific fleet, The Atlantic fleet when it made it's fa- nous trip was considered the greatest feet ever brought together.
 Admiral RobIey D. Evans com- manded the Atlantic fleet until it reached San Francisco. All his yes sels burned coal. as did the Oregon of Spanish-American war days. Ad- miral Rodmans flagship, the New Mexico, is electrically propelled and most of his vessels are oil burners, thus materially increasing their cruis- ing radius over any previous Ameri- can fleet

PEARLHARBOR IMPRECNABLE
 NAVAL BASE

HONOLULU, July IA (by cores pondence of Associated Press) War against the United States will be made almost prohibitiye for any Or iental nation through the establish ment at Pearl harbOr base here of the greater part of the new Pacific feet, according to naval authorities. The arrival of the fleet late in Aug ust, it was declared. would make Pearl harbor one of the greatest naval bases in the world and the most in p0rlant to the United States.
 Naval authorities have said Hawai- affords the only possible location for T strong naval base in the Central Pacific ocean for a distance of 4,VV0 mlles. It lies approximately 2,5yl mics off the American coast If Il" waii were in the hands of an enemy. according to local authorities, that nation could harass and threaten the entire Pacific coast. To guard the Pacific coast against an enemy occu- pying Hawaii, the United States would be compelled to keep a fleet many times the size required with Hawaii as an American base, it is declared.
 With the United States in control of the islands an Oriental nation moving against the United States would be compelled to work from a base 1000 to 5000 miles from the American coast instead of the Hawaii an coast, only 2,5OO miles off.
 Pearl Harbor, where the base is sit uated, is considered one of the best, if not the best, natural harbors in the world It has an area of ten square miles and a depth of more than 60 feet It is landlocked, and ships with in the harbor are out of view from the sea. The great new drydock just completed will be officially opened by Secretary of the Navy Daniels when he arrives with the fleet. It is 1929 feet long, is 138 feet wide and can handle any ship afoat or contem- plated.
 The war department also has ample sites at the channel entrance and al- ready has engaged on the construc- ton of protecting defenses. A con- siderable army force also is main tained in the islands.
