CALLS FOR ONLY GREAT
CAOST DEFENSE GUNS.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-Ade-
quate defense of our naval bases calls
for the installation of no major cali
bre armament of less than 16-inch
guns, Major General Lansing Beach,
chief of engineers, declared in his
annual report made public today The
armament must possess power and
range su....cient to oppose anything
which can be brought against it by a
hostile navy. the report asserts, and
should be placed on fixed mounts.
Existing armament should not be
moved, Gen. Beach says, as it has an
important function in constituting the
interior and secondary line of de-
fense, especially against armed raid
ing vessels or first-line ships able to
pass the outer main line of fortifica-
tions.
Construction of a comprehensive
svetem of interior roads and water
ways, especially along the frontiers,
is Of great necessity. the report says.

GREEKS FEAR ATTITUDE

Britain NAV ~ermit the return of
Constantine to the throne of Greece,
but fears are expressed that the two
nations will wash their hands of the
Greeks, either by concluding ar
rangements with the Turks separate
ly or using General WrangePs army,
now re-organizing on the island of
Lemnos, for spring campaign
against the Turks. Should either of
these steps be taken by France and
Great Britain, there is apprehension
that they may abandon Greece fnan-
cially.

amined closely. Both are reticent

Behind the admitted necessity of do

Astounding Speech At
Moscow Made By
American Radical

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-(By
Associated Press. 1.-The union of
American negroes with the radical
elements of all nations to further the
cause of world sovietism was urged
before the Moscow meeting of the
Communist Internationale, lat which
both Lenine and Trotzky,s Russian
dictators, spoke, by the late Ameri-
can radical>an magazine writer, John
Reed, according to the text of his
speech received here in official dis
patches from Russia.
Describing the position of the ne
gro in the United States, Especially
the Southern states, as Tterrible, /"
Reed declared the negro offered a
two-fold opportunity for the spread
of communism in this country; first,
by a strong racial and social move
ment and second by strong prole-
tartan movement.
Grace consciousness has steadily
increased among the negroes" he
said, "a certain section of whom is
now carrying on propaganda in favor
of armed revolt against the whites,
and socialistic ideas are rapidly devel-
oping among the blacks employed in
industrial establishments"
Reed proposed that the white and
negro laborers in both the North and
South be ioined in common labor
unions as the quickest way to de-
stroy race prejudice and develop
class solidarity. Until recently, he
said, negroes were not admitted to
membership in a majority of the un-
ions which comprise which is known
as the American Federation of La
bor."
"The separation of the negro from
/ the whites is called the Jim Crow
system" Reed said, "and the clergy
men of Southern churches teach that
there is also heaven where the Jim
Crow system is in operation"
