Here's What We Do Tomorrow
With the
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1921-05-27
THE NAVAL PROGRAM

Washington, d. c., May 2S.-Dis-
armament as related to reducing tax
alton has been the chief feature of the
discussion OF the huge Naval Appro-
priation Bill in the Senate, with, en-
phasis on the recent report of the
Secretary of the Treasury, Mr.. Mellon.
that a reduction in the appropriations
for war purposes Is the only means
left of reducing Federal taxation by
this Congress.
Republican writers and speakers
have created widespread impression
that by disarmament is meant the
United States shall reduce it's arma-
ments without regard to d reduction
by other great naval powers. No one,
Of course, is proposing any such
thing. The proposals before the SEN
ate are the resolution BY Senator Boz
rah (Rep., Idaho) requesting the Pres
ident to call a conference Of the lead
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1921-05-27

ing naval powers (the United States
Great Britain and Japan, and thu
amendment by Senator Pomerent
(Dem., 0hio) making it discretionary
with the President whether he shall
suspend naval building operations fol-
six months to find out whether or not
we can bring about some agreement
for disarmament,
The sudden willingness of Republi-
cans in charge of the bill to cease OPP
position to the Borah resolution is not
regarded here as change of view on
their part, but as a parliamentary
move to hasten the passage of the bill,
They show no willingness, however, at
this writing, to accept the Pomerene
amendment, which, it is pointed out,
would put responsibility in the hands
Of the President and compel him
either to make good his party's cleo
ton promises to reduce Federal taxa
tion or to repudiate them.
Senator Borah asserted that "this
Republican Congress, pledged to econ
omy, will increase the expenditures of
192O", and cited figures presented by
member OF the Finance Committee to
show that the appropriations this year
would be $4,5O0,O00, 1000, with deficit
at the end of the year of 1900, 900, 900
or $4,000, 100000. He also asserted
that 90 per cent of all the money ex-
pended by the government in 1920 I'M
der Republican Congress was on ac-
count of wars past and future and on
ly Z per cent for all other operations
of the government.
Senator Pomerene, saying that the
big naval program now sought to be
adopted was made in 1916 when we
We're facing war, declared that bust
ness was staggering under the load,
and called attention to the deplorable
conditions among farmers, manufac-
turers and laboring men. "You can
not have great appropriation bills
without adding to the taxes which
burden u.s., he said, "and you can
not add to the taxes without adding
to the cost Of living. The time to
save money is before it is expended
and not afterwards
A prophetic warning was given by
Senator Lenroot rep, Wis., against
Republican extravaganza in appropri-
atoms, who said; Unless we make re-
ducticns in the appropriations for the
army and navy, considering the fixed

TWO IMPORTANT FACTS

Not very easily is q newspaper
taken by. surprise nowadays; the
press, while not all-wise, has means
for knowing pretty well what il
: what about q great many matters.
Yet this newspaper has been sur
prised lately by two highly inter
esting facts that came to its notice;
facts interesting enough to pass on
to an important element of our
readers.-Ilamely, parents with
vacations In life are not yet finally
chosen. Accordingly, we here pass
those facts on.
One is that there is an urgent and
ceaseiess demand for trained pro-
fessional nurses. The other Is that
vocation can be qualified without
paying any fees for tuition.
In these days. When almost every
way OF earning ones living Is said
to be overcrowded. Il must be
