PEACE PARLEY MAY
DECIDE NAVY PLANS

League of nation developments at
along with the utterances of Premier
Lloyd George, may decide the fate of
the Administrations large navy pro-
gram.
If the British peace delegation
shows an inclination to agree to a
program of disarmament or even a
curtailment of naval building, the pro-
posal of Secretary Daniels for a new
three-year building program will
probably be beaten or radically cut
in the House Naval Committee, large
navy Congressman said yesterday.
If, on the other hand, construction
Is to continue at the present rate,
President Wilson will be appealed to
for the purpose of whipping insurgent
Democrats into support of the Admin
istration plan and the new bill will
be reported out of committee with
only two votes against it. and be
pushed through the House.
Navy "Second to None"
The Administration program does
not constitute a threat to any nation,
Secretary Daniels has pointed out, but
merely means that the United States
in her position as a great world power
should have a navy second to none"
the present situation in the naval
committee is this:
Six Democrats are for the big navy
and five Democrats are against it.
Seven Republicans are for it and two
are against it.
This gives large navy men a sub
stantiaI majority in the committee,
but they fear what may happen to
their bin IL they go into the H"uS"
with a divided committee back of it.
\ letter from the President would put
the five Democrats into line and Ieav,:
only the two Republicans opposing.
Daniels Estimates Cut.
The first draft of the navy bill, as
now written, carries appropriations
Of $745,0OO.OOO. as against Secretary
Daniels request for $4,000, 900.
To effect this saving number of
naval aNiatiOn was cut down. the:
navy personnel was pared and work

100000 OLABORERS
NOW UNEMPLOYED

with 2IO,OO unemployed labOrers in
Industrial ccnters last week, the sit
nation is becoming serious. according
to \ statement issued by the United
States Employment Service of the De-
partment Of Labor.
Since TIE signing of the armistiCe
there has been a steady and consistent
decrease in the shortages, while the
surplus has been steadily increasing.
The percentage of cities reporting
shortage has dropped to IL per cent,
the cities reporting surpluses has
jumped to a. per cent, and the cities
where the supply equals the demand
has dropped to As per cent.
On December 10, % per cent of the
cities were short of laborers. 12A per
cent reported surpluses and GO per
cent reported the supply equal to the
demand On December ) there was
total shortage of labor in industrial
centeEs of $4,000. Thij shortage has
been wiped out in eight weeks, and a
surplus OF 100000 substituted.
In the New England States the sit
nation is hopeful. Boston and Spring
field report a supply equal to the de-
nand, and New Britain. Conn. reports
a shortage. Lynn and Lawrence re-
port a surplus of several thousand un-
employed, but there has been only
Slight increase in the number during
the last few weeks.
= In New York State a surplus of la
Dor is reported in every large city.
while in New Jersey, and Pennsyl-
vania the supply about equals the de-
mand. In Cleveland the surplus has
Increased from 40 900 to $4,000 unem-
ployed. while other Ohio cities report
a similar condition.
The situation in the middle West is
far from satisfactory. Detroit has a
surplus of 25.OOO Grand Rapids,
Jackson. and Flint all report a sur
pIus. Illinois reports surpluses at al
most every point, and the expected
layH-off at the Rock Island arsenal will
affect both Illinois and Iowa.
= On the Pacific cpast and in the
Southern States the situation is not so
acute, but a shortage in labor exist
ing in the larger cities of the two sec
tons is being rapidly reduced. and in
quite few instances changed into
surplus.

zEEBRUGGE RAID
HERO TO LECTURE

The hero of the British raid on the
C-bOat bases at Zeebrugge, Capt. AL
fred +. b. Carpenter, V. c.. comman-
der of the Vindictive during the des-
prrate effort to bottle up the German
submarines, will speak at the Belasco
Theater on February 4, giving all the
details of that attack.
On Wednesday. January 20, Captain
Carpenter spoke in New York in the
interest of the fund for the widows
and orphans of the men who lost
their lives while patrolling the British
channel and succeeded in raising
100000. Thousands of people were
turned away on that occasion. ami
Captain Carpenter has consented to a
return engagement on January 81.
OF the sum raised in New York.
$4,000 was realized by auctioning off
of fragment of the Zcebrugge mole,
the bidders pooling their offers and
then presenting the piece of masonry
to the city.
Captain Carpenter spoke of the at
tempt of EIObson to bottle up the
Spanish fleet in the harbOr of San
tiago, comparing it with the raid on
Z"cbruggc.
"The chief difference between the
feat at Ic"brugge and that at San
tiagO harbnr," he said, was that the
American sailors. too ready to face
tn" direct fire of the enemy's heavy
guns, sailed straight into the mouth

the snip was sunk before it was

HOOVER NOT AIMING
TO LOWER PRICES

The food administration Is doing moth
ing to lower food prices in America.
The position taken by officials, it was
learned today. is that il the present
overplus Of foodstuffs, admittedly piled
up in this country now. were to drop in
price, by reason OF a free working Of
the law of supply and demand, the drop
would only be temporary.
What we hope to accomplish is that
America can divide her oyerplus OF food
with the European nations, and still keep
prices at a sane, reasonable level" said
an official.
Our ships are loaded to capacity with
foodstuffs for Europe now. Within
short time. the surplus will be dwindled.
Permitting the free economic law to
operate now would mean that they must
operate three months from now, also.
Then 1t would be difficult to keep prices
as low as they are now"
1t was admitted, however, that in
many foodstuffs there is no reason why
there should not be a decided drop
Dairy products, with the exception of
condensed milk and cheese and other
dairy commodities that can be shipped
overseas. il was pointed out, are in
sufficient quantity in this country.
Herbert Hoover. food administrator
pointed out before he left for Europe
two months ago that a break" might
be expected in the butter market if
prices were not reduced.
The food administrations stand is
that it is not empowered to demand
lower prices. and that it has no power
to prosecute those who violate its rules
under the Lever act.
The only thing that can be done is
for local food administrators to es-
tablish fair price lists and punish fner-
chants who profiteer," it was declared.

People Of Mason County Should Sub.
scribe Literally 10 Campaign Fund
In the Next Few Days-Yet
Far Short OF Quota.

The campaign for funds for the Sal
walton Army will close at the end OF
this week and those In charge of the
drive In Mason county report that they
are yet considerably short Of the
county's. quota-five thousand dollars.
Mason county has not yet fallen be-
hind In a single war campaign and
she will not fall behind this time but
as those In charge of the drive here
are very anxious to close up the af-
fair with the end of the week, It Is
urged that those who are expecting to
contribute to this worthy cause, do
so promptly so that everything can be
wound up when the week closes.
Many of the precinct workers report
that their contributions are yet short
of their precinct quotas and the good
people Of Mason county must loosen
their purse strings more to the organi-
zation which is held In as high esteem
by the returned soldiers as any other
organization which had anything to do
with the world war.
Mason county must not fall behind
in this. Be liberal and help the Or
ganization whose sole business Is
helping the fellow who is down.
