(Friday's Oasis)
 The meeting called by the Chamber of Commerce yester- day evening in the council cham Der of the city hall was attended by large concourse of interest ed citizens, and standing room was at 8 premium.
 The fact that the question of a federal building site was slated for consideration drew large crowd.
 Secretary ". T. Haley read a report upon the condition of the organization and other matters, with several communications that had been received since the last meeting.
 Dr. A. l.. Gustetter, chairman of the trade excursion commit tee, read an extended report, giving details of the excursion, the reception accorded. the opi- nions of participants. and bene- fits to be anticipated. The re- port was heard with great in terest and ordered filed.
 When tbe federal building site was reached, Captain Mix, chair man of the committee, read & report of visit to treasury de partment at Washington, D. O., as published in "The Oasis" Sunday morning.
 Mr. T. J. Wylie, on behalf oi Nogales school board, addressed the chamber, rendering 8 suit able site to be taken out from school grounds on Plum street and Arroyo boulevard, which he stated will be deeded to the Un ited States in fee simple for $9OOO, the sum the treasury de- chase of such a site. That sum, MT. Wylie stated, will be devoted to improvement ca the grounds, and will not go to profit of any one.
 Further, stated MT. Wylie, when the city of Nogales is ready to build municipal build ing. unless the present city hall structure will be transferred to the city as has been contemplat- ed. the school board will offer a site for new city hall. More over, there will be donated from the school premises, which are spacious (two city blocks) and can spare the areas, a suitable site for 8 Carnegie library.
 With the new high school edifice completed, federal building. city hall and Gar negie library, said Mir. Wylie, Nogales will have civic center of which any city may be proud.
 Mir. Wylie ended his speech by a motion that the Chamber of Commerce endorse the tender by the school board. which motion was seconded by several.
 Attorney Frank J. Barry ad- dressed the chamber, supporting Mir. Wylie's motion, stating it was the most liberal that had been presented, and that, as the money asked will all be put back into improvement of the pro- perty with no big realty specul- ative profit for anyone, and the other features suggested to make a civic center, the propo- sition. in his opinion, should re- ceive unanimous endorsement by the chamber.
 As the school board propo- sitiou had received unanimous endorsement by the Young Mems Business Association at their meeting Wednesday evening. it stands as having the unanimous backing of the business public of NogaleS, and it will be ten dered when the inspector ar riveS next week.

Suggest Clergymen Augmented Incomes by
 Acting As Doctors

London, Dec. 2o.-A controversy Is on among the poorly-paid section of clergymen who find themselves hard hit by the high cost of living over novel suggestion put forward by pr. Robert RentouI, a prominent Liver pool practitioner, that the clergymen could augment their incomes by act ing as doctors as well as parsons.
 Doctor Rentoul advises young clergynen to study medicine. take their degree and combine body-curing with soul-saving work.
 Many clergynen do not look with favor on the idea. They argue that they have plenty to do already and that local practitioners would bitterly resent competition from them. One wants to know where a poor curate is to raise the S1250 necessary to qualify for a medical degree and oth- CTS hold that within month the clerico-medico'S sermons would be thin, and that the soul would suffer at the expense of the body

John Barleycorn Fears
 Expulsion From Panama

Colon, Panama, Dec. 2o-John Barleycorn in Panama has visions of the spectre of death.
 In this little republic where can tinas occupy by far the most prom inent places in the business streets, where one rarely sees an intoxicated person, and where intoxicants are considered a necessity, there is great fear that dry America is going to force a dry Panama.
 The War and Navy Departments are anxious to increase the military forces in the Canal Zone. The War Wepartment has tentative plans for complete division in the canal Zone, yet the present head of the War De- partment is opposed to placing more troops in district where intox1cants are legally and freely dealt in.
 Political gossip has it that Presi- dent Porras, of the Republic of Pan anna is pledged to prohibition, in ex- change for the favor and the sup port of the American government. It is matter of record that early in the Porras administration the Pana- manian legislative body voted down prohibition with hut one dissenting vote, and that legislator voting in fa- vor of prohibition was greeted with jeers. It is also a matter of record that the same legislative body a few weeks ago had a complete turna bout, and when the question of prohibition was brought up but two votes were ,
 Fear Dry Era.
 Panamanians are fearful and re- sentfu1 that the United States is going to force a dry era upon them. Amer jeans here are not in favor of prohi- bition; they declare that it can never be success among a people who have always had their wines and beers and heavier drinks. Yet some mysterious higher power seems to be striving for a dry Panama, and those who have been here for many years know that in times past the mysterious higher power has generally had it's way in Panama.
 Should Panama go dry the world would lose the greater cosmopolitan drinking country. The commerce and | men of the world meet here. The Gen. trale Avenida is dotted with polyglot signs such as Mikes Place." '"The Broadway Bar,'' Loo Hang Shai Can 1 tina" German Beer Sold Here.' "Old l English Stout" "Vin Rouge" "Jamai- I ca Rum Cheap" "Cantina Mexicans." /" 1 If these signs go to the commerce of | the world undoubtedly will pass quick | ly through Panama, and no longer I will there be an interchange of inter- l national views over the tiny cafe ta- | bIes along the Centrale Avenida. 1 Panama does not want prohibition. l Yet it is fairly safe conjecture that 1 Panama. will have prohibition if the mysterious high power wills it.

DECEMBER 20, 1920

one of the finest fall seasons on rec ord, not only in quality, but also in length, for it is very seldom that the years calendar so nearly runs out and winter not show its fangs-
 With Christmas less than a week away the boys are still at their foot ball, the golf enthusiast has still an opportunity to follow the elusive ball over the course, the farmer has an unhampered opportunity to bring up the odds and the ends of his outdoor work, and building operations, what few there are, can be crowded along without the usual handicap of snow and cold.
 But all these considerations are overshadowed by the actual blessing the long mild season has been by reason of the distress which it has prevented in reducing the need of coal for warmth to a figure so very much below what there was excuse for hoping.
 Now, with the shortest days reached, and the sun soon to turn northward again, with the household CTS coal reserves slightly drawn upon, and an increased amount ot coal available, it is improbable that in the next three months, which is about the limit of really severe cold there can be any where near the amount of suffering there would have been had winter shut down, as ii sometimes does. early in November; for all of which let everyone be truly thankful and hope for equal good fortune in 1921.

THE OTHER SIDE

There is no necessary relation, phe- nouenally, between the size of a na- ton and it's ability to build it's arna- ment. If it should be said that Japan cannot have lAger navy because it is smaller than the United States, 1t could be said with force that Ja- pan cannot have large navy because 1t Is smaller than China. Looking at the world from the standpoint of what actually has happened, rather than from the merely subjective viewpoint of the mind, there seldom has been any relation between mill tary power and the size and popu- lation of states. Greece was a small community. Egypt was not vast and Rome was merely a city. The Brit ish rule a great empire from tiny island. Russia has vast territory, vast population and vast wealth, but was conspicuously defeated by the Japanese. China, the most populous and perhaps the wealthiest country in a. military sense.
 How big a navy a natlon may build depends upon the intelligence of its people, their industrial develop ment and the intensity of their desire to put their resources into such an establishment Japan is an island empire and needs, theoreucaIIy at least, a larger navy on this account, and the circumstance that the Jap anese are islanders may give them a stronger will to build a great navy, as it gave England to do the same thing.
 It cannot be shown, apparently, that Japan cannot have a larger navy merely because the United States is larger. One thing that stands out with certainty. Unless the nations speedily agree to disarm, they must spend more money for their war es- tablishments than they have hitherto expended.

 We ask no philanthropy. We are anxious to accelerate the reconstruc- ton of Russia's economic life with the help of foreign machinery but we are well aware that the gains of foreign nations will not be inferior to our own. However, we are not going to pay any political premiums merely to resume trade.
 If the ruined and exhausted west ern states can afford to do without Russia's inexhaustible riches we can also wait.
