OLD BOYS CRAFT THE
"RARITAN."2

Paritan, " u, July 5.-SActing as
sponsor here today Of a rowboat
made BY a snine-ear-old boy, Presi-
dent Harding delivered Fourth of
July Grafton of single sentence in
tribute to the ingenuity and aspira-
tions of American boyhood.
The diminutive craft which inspired
the Presidents toast was the ''Rari-
tan" nine feet over all, conceived
and built by Joseph s. Frehnghuysen
Jr., son of the senior Senator from
New Jersey, at whose home Presi-
dent and Mrs. Harding are guests.
The bank Of an artificial lake form

the Raritan Valley Country Club
was the scene Of s3hel launching and
will be the home pert of the 'Rari-
tan" as she sails a tramp c'uise in
search Of misdirected golf balls.
Had it been the largest ocean liner
the vessel could scarcely have taken
the water with greater show of
ceremony. The American flag was
in place above her stern and as she
was loosed to begin he. adventurous
career, the President Of the United
States broke a benbboped bottle
of mineral water across her bows,
and said: ,..

ARMED FORCES
BUT LITTLE KNOWN

Newport, r. l., July 5.-The atti-
tude Of the United States, which he
said, not only had alway neglected to
provide for public criticism by officer
of the armed forces but has actually
forbidden it, was contrasted with
that Of some European powers by
Rear Admiral William s. Sims in an
address today before the Rhode Is
land Society Of the Cincinnati
in which he urged public discussion
as a safeguard to public interests. In
some continental countries, he de-
clared, criticism was recognized as so
vital to efficiency that it was award
ed when it proves beneficial. r.,
The American people, Admiral
Sims said, knew less about the ele-
ments of warfare and less about
the actual condition of their military
forces than the people of any other
great power, adding that "although
this has initiated against, our pre-
paredness for war in the past and al
though we have nevertheless attain
ed our object in war without very
serious loss, still it must be evident
that a similar attitude cannot be
maintained in the future without
very serious risk. In country gov
erned as ours the efficiency of its
various departments must necessari-
ly depend very largely upon the in
terest the people take In this effici-
ency.

JAPAN PREPARED
FOR DISARMAMENT
OZAKd DECLARES THAT If THE
UNITED STATES SHOULD.
TAKE INITIATIVE FOR LINZ
TATIoN OF ARMAMENT HIS
COUNTRY WOULD FOLLOW.

Toxic, July 5.-0kio Ozaki, form
er. minister of justice, on the con-.
clusion of a 10,000-mile campaign
of the empire in behalf of limitation
of armaments, campaign unparal-
leled in Japan's political history, de-
clared his conviction today that il
the United States government pro-
posed a conference on limitation of
armaments it would meet with an
eager response throughout the
length and breadth of Japan.
M. Ozaki, whose achievements
have made him the foremost Japa-
,nese Liberal, added:
"I should like to convey this mes;
sake to the people Of the United
States. II. the American, government
proposes an international conferences
to discuss restriction of armaments
it Will surely be the beginning Of !
solution Of all the diplomatic ques-
tions between Japan and the United
States. If we are unable to prevent
the clearly unnecessary wasteful ma
val competition, how can we expect
to- solve. other irritable and more
complicated questions between our
two countries? The latter will easily
adjust themselves when the former
has been settled" 80
M. O7aki explained that he spoke
in almost all the important cities and
towns from Kyushu, in the farthest
south, to Hokkaido, in 1.-The farthest
north, addressing more than a 1907
900 persons at 100 meetings, large
and small, at which post cards were !
distributed so that his hearers would
vote freely on disarmament. The
final result on the returns from these
cards, M. Ozaki, asserted, showed
that 81 per cent favored limitation.
The intense endeavor Of NJ. Ozaki
AZ pears to have awakened the nation
to the fact that armament restriction
is he supreme problem Of the era Of
Japan. An investigation m the high
est official quarters elected cor,fr-
mston Of previous statements hat
the government would welcome a,
conference on limitation. - -
