"Never you mind" said Senator

Woodrow Wilson will entirely re-
cover his health, the country will find
that he was perfectly right in all that

"If that is what the Democrats are
counting on. they are indeed in a

10 see whether the Republican Senate
will confirm his appointment as Unit
cd States Judge.
Worst Of all, for the Democrats in
the House, is the fact that they have
only 129 members in the new Con-
gress and will be subject to the two
thirds rule at any time. In other
words the Republicans will have more
than two-thirds majority and will be
able to prevent dllatory or filibuster
tactics on the part OF the Democrats
by means of the two-thirds rule,
which permits anything except unani-
nous consent.
No Appealing Issues.
Consequently the minority party is
wandering around in a slough of
dependency and is so far without an
issue upon which to appeal to the
country. This has already resulted
in their Quarreling among thems elves
as tc policy, as evidenced by tho
farmer tariff vote. Divided, without
leaders u L without organization, the
Democratic party ia the House seems
to be in hopeless mess. In the
Senate it is more united in opposition
to any protective tariff principle and
is more ably led by Senator Oscar
Underwood, of Alabama, who was

case he is contemplating returning to

Japan's Defense Plan ,

Everyone out here insists that if Japan must fight the United States, she will fight defensive" war, waiting for the United States to come to her-the logical thing, seemingly, for Japan to do.
 Another thing that one hears out here is, that if there is to be clash with America it must dome over con flicting policies in the Far East. for, appearances to the contrary, Japan has no intention of attacking the coast of the United States over the immigration question. N
 Should trouble come between the iwo countries over some Far Eastern question, the conflict would Naturally be staged in the Far East, and it would be there that victory or defeat would 5e decided.

SININlS SHOWS HOW UNITED STATES, IN EVENT
 OF AN OFFENSIVE WARFARE ON JAPAN WOULD
 BE AT GREAT DISADVANTAGE IN ASIATTC WATERS
BY WILLIAM PHIIIP SIMMS Written Expressly for The Newspa.
 per Enterprise Association

TOKYO, April 20.-lf the United States stops building war vessels at the end of her present program - that is, in 192S-and Japan continues with her eight t-eight-and- eight schedule until 1927-as Premier Tax ashi Hara and Admiral Baron Kato, minister of the navy, insist she must do-then the United States, in the event of war with Japan. would be caught at approximately twO-toone disadvantage.
 That is to say if Japan tights the same kind of war she seems to be building fora defensive" war. or more properly speaking a war to be fought in her own yard, so to speak Japanese navy equal in size to the American navy would be tantamount to a Japanese navy of twice the size of the American navy under actual fighting conditions. Nor does it take an expert to see this.
 Personally, since my arrival in Ja- pan, l have become convinced that war between the United States and Japan is entirely unnecessary. IT President Harding and Secretary of State Hughes blend justice. strength and publicity in Aheir dealings with Japan, there will be no war.
 But should the worst come to worst, the chance of Japan attacking continental United States, or striking the American fleet in America, are so remote as to be negligible. The attitude of Japan towards the United States would rather be. in a given emergency:
 Come on over and help<yourself.
 Now suppcsing something like that happened. Look at your map. San Francisco to Yokohama, via Honolulu is 5,655 miles-two weeks sailing across the Pacific ocean.
 Would Arrive Tired
 From Honolulu, in the Hawaiian Is- lands-the last point at which Amer ican ships could with certainty stock up with fuel-to Yokohama is more than 5000 miles, so a tired fleet, far from home, would have to meet a fresh fleet in it's own waters.
 A line of communication nearly r. 900 miles long would have to be main tained, requiring a considerable num- Der of available ships, and any de viation from the direct routes across the Pacific would not only lengthen this line but expose long flank 10 the enemy.
 The waters of the Philippines, at best, would be teeming with enemy submarines, making them eXtremenly iazsfdous for any ships using those ports. while at worst the islands might be cut off entirely by hostile fleets, leaving the Hawaiian Islands as the nearest possible base. Knocked Out
