UIASHINGTON.-Because Of the
wv inadequacy of naval bases the
United States, according to navy au-
thorities, is totally unprepared to fight
successful war in the western Pa
cific.
The most advanced base we now
possess is at Pearl Harbor, In the
Hawaiian islands. Its facilities, how
ever, are scarcely more than rudi-
mentary. With the exception of a
dry dock the equipment is insufficient
to care for the needs of half the navy
in time of peace, let alone the whole
navy in time Of war. Another dry
dock and construction of a multitude
OF channels and berths, as well as
the establishment of vast repair work
and storage warehouses for supplies,
are necessary, according to the Navy
department.

u. S. Pacific Naval Bases Inadequate

Until the Hawaiian islands are made
an adequate base the American navy
viii be unable to operate effectively
In the western Pacific. Lacking such
base, 1t would be necessary to sup
ply the fighting fleet almost entirely
from the Pacific coast bases, the dis
lance to which would be a severe
handicap on operations.
Even the Pacific coast bases are
inadequate to the demands Of the
whole navy If stationed In the Pacific,
even In time of peace. 1t would be
necessary to send ships back to the
Atlantic coast for major repair work.
The Navy department Is urging con-
gress for appropriations to begin the
construction of Pacific coast and
Hawaiian island bases which 1t will
require several years to complete. The
senate is favorable, but the house op-
posed to such appropriations.
The Parks-McKean board, which
surveyed the needs of bases In the
Pacific, recommended the expenditure
Of $27, $4,000 In the Hawaiian islands,
$44, 065, $50 at Bremerton, Wash, $42,-
$4,000 at San Francisco, 100000
at San Diego, $5,OO0,OO0 at San Pedro,
$5,O0O000 at the Columbia river

''EIorse Sense and Heart Sense" Needed

T> HE housing situation with high

the opinion Of Secretary of Labor Da-
Wis. 1t is In just such situation as
Davis describes that congress and the
state legislatures, under the Supreme
court ruling, have the power to enact
emergency legislation curbing rent
gougers. Davis holds high rents the
greatest single barrier to a readjust-
ment such as is essential to perma-
nent prosperity.
because of high rents and made
quate housing" he says, families
double up, sometimes two or three to
a home 1t is not too much to say
that the loss in morale and morals
due to the housing conditions in many
cities today is one Of the greatest
dangers to our whole social structure"
The report of the recent state inves-
tigation into housing conditions In Chi
cago showed that 100000 people In
that city were living In the most I'M
wholesome conditions, sleeping some
times three and four In bed, five
and six to room. Reports from 9TH

what we need In dealing with the
situation" Davis says, ''is not only
horse sense, but heart sense. 1t Is
not merely matter OF houses and
rents, of dollars and cents.
"Some agreement must be reached
by the building trades and the build
ing industries that will make possible
a resumption of home building.
"The building industry is the key
stone of our entire industrial struc-
ture, and once construction work can
be set under way again the whole en-
ployment and industrial situation will
be relieved.
"Today, however, we have the para
doxfcal situation where Il Is cheaper
