Senator King and Borah Win Fight
After Long Struggle; Mare island

Tact Az Coast Defender

When the senate Monday afternoon
by vote Of 40 to 30 rejected a pro
vision In the naval bill establishing u
new base in the San Francisco bay at
Alameda, 1t paid tribne to Senator
Kings ability as debater and a real
guardian of the treasury. In the long
drawn-out fight, which began last ses-
sion, Senator King had as his chief
lieutenant Senator Borah.
Senator Kings fight. which ended
VIGOROUSLY today, was begun last SEES
sion when the naval bill was brought
up. His attention then had been call
ed to the Alameda question, and he
demanded that the item be laid aside
while he could 60 into Its merits. This
he did most thoroughly, with the re-
suit that he and Senator Borah large
ly on account OF this one item, forced
the defeat Of the naval bill on the 4th
Of March, and made necessary rein
PRODUCTION this session.
Senator King went to pains to get
at the bottom facts, and when he was
fully informed he explained the sltua-
ton TO Senator Borah, who joined with
him in a determined attack upon the
Alameda project. When Senator King
and Senator Borah this session ex,
posed the entire affair, nineteen Re
publican senators, including some
large navy advocates, Joined them in
striking the provision from the bill.
The Alameda provision had an in
nocent appearance. 1t called for the
appropriation of only S1,5o0000 for
the establishment of naval supply
base. IL 1t had been adopted, the gov
lrrnment would have been committed to
