New-York tribune., 1920-10-19

Senator declared that, according to Off
cial figures, we had 391 900 horses and
mules in service during the war For
these horses and mules, he said, the
War Department purchased 945, 900
saddles and more than 100000 double
sets of harness-su fficient to harness
100000 horses at one time.
Leather Orders Excessive
"The War Department then proceed
ed to purchase 1887 900 horse brushes
and 100000 nose bags, 1,148 900 horse
blankets and 2,ioo,U0O halters," said
the Senator. "And you must rem enber r
that all this material was for 391 900
horses and mules. The War Depart
ments orders for leather goods alone
would have required 100000 more hides
than are produced in this country in
one year. This is rather significant
fact when taken in connection with the
high cost of shoes.
THE War Department decided that
these 391 900 horses and mules must
be branded, so a contract was made
with Henry Morse & Co. of New York
for $4,000 branding irons-one iron
for every two horses, or mules. 1t
was specified that these irons should
be made of copper, which was both
scarce and most expensive. We won
the war, but without branding the
horses and mules. We were still wait

Lod &c Describes War Waste
At Big Rally in Brooklyn
Administration Purchases Revealed as Riot of Ex.
travagance Without Result; Article X
Called Leagues Bad Heart

Addressing the first big Republican
rally held in Brooklyn since the Presi-
Dental campaign began, Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge described to 1000 men and
women in the Academy of Music last
night the riot of extravaganza and
waste engaged in by the Wilson Admin
istration during the war He gave
many facts and figures to back up his
assertions.
The Senator's remarks on wartime
extravaganza prefaced a bitter attack
on the League of Nations in general
and Article X in particular. He re-
ferred to Article x as 1.-The leagues
bad heart" and declared that the cove
nant itself was a breeder of war and
full of enforcement, but very little
peace. The league, Senator Lodge as
serted, is an alliance, pure and simple,
in which the wealth and armed forces
of the United States will be placed at
the beck and call of foreign nations
Senator Lodge said after the meeting
that he had never been accorded q more
enthusiastic greeting than was given to
him by Brooklyn Republicans last
night. The seating and standing room
capacity of the Academy of Music was
taxed to the limit long before the
speaker arrived, and hundreds of per-
sons who came after o'clock were
turned away. The meeting was pre-
sided over by Representative Frederick
W. Rowe, of Flatbush
Senator Lodge said that in his opin-
ion the extravaganza and waste to
which the United States had been sub
jected during the war were little short
of appalling. He pointed out that ST.
100000 was expended for artillery
alone, and yet, according to General
Pershing's report, only 109 guns of the
"75" type reached France before the
armistice WAS signed, and only one OF
the heavier caiIber. These were the
only guns we succeeded in getting tc

If the measure was adopted, NJ. Han

for the Japanese, first, appeal to the
Supreme Court by Japanese residents
of California;; second, a demand for
the nullihcation of the measure as an
infringement of the Japanese America an
treaty, and, third, the conclusion OF A
new treaty.
The arrangement of new treaty
protecting acquired rights is a ques-
tion which the American government
is willingly considering, said M. Hani-
hara. Negotiations on this treaty are
being carried forward, but the new
treaty will require the approval of the
Senate and the result of the vote on
it. permits Of no optimism. However,
NJ Hanihara continued, it was reason
able to suppose that the anti-Japanese
agitation, which was sort of by
product of the Presidential campaign,
will have largely subsidized by the time
the new treaty reaches the Senate.
The Vice Foreign Minister inter-
preted the California agitation as one
result of Japan's proposal for racial
equality at the peace conference in
Paris. This, ne declared, had impressed
the Americans as meaning Japan was
determined to carry out her ideas for
racial equality by all means.
According to the NichiNichi, some
of the members asked NJ. Hanihara if
the government recognized that the
presentation Of the racial proposition
in Paris constituted failure for Japan

Japan Begins Trades Census
Program to Aid Mobilization

TOXIC, Oct. IS (By The Associated
Press AS result Of the census
taken October /. the figures OF which
have not yet been announced, the gov
ernment has begun sending circulars
throughout the country asking physi-
clans, surgeons, dentists, pharmacists,
tailors, blacksmiths and other persons
whether they would be willing to serve
in the army in case of war.
Officials explain that the information
is desired in connection with any posi-
bic future mobilization. 1t is said that
the details sought form part of gen.
eral plan of industrial mobilization
upon which the government has been
working for years, and that it has or
ganzed new national industrial cen
sus board to investigate mobilization
possibilities in factories, mines, rail
ways and marine transport systems.
The inquiry was begun Friday in the
Toxic precinct.
Addressing the new board, Premier
Hara urged the organization of national
industry to the stage which is consid-
cred essential to the national defense
program.
The newspapers report that Masane
Hanihara, Deputy Foreign Minister, in
explaining the negotiations over the
California situation to the members OF
the Kenyuki party in the House OF
Peers, said the Washington government
had taken measures to check the in.
