Farrell Cannot
Recall Striking
Hinton, He Says

ROCKAWAY POINT. N. Y, Jan.
2O.-Lieut. Stephen A. Farrell told
the naval board of inquiry this
afternoon that he had no recollec-
tion of attacking Lieut.. Walter
Hinton at Mattice upon their ar
rival there from Moose Factory,
near where their balloon landed last
month.
Farrell, who still showed the eff
fects of hardships he had under
gone, testified that he had only a
hazy memory of the events that oc-
cTrred after they reached Mattice.
He said his mind seemed to have
been affected.
In describing the hardships of the
third day, Farrell told of falling
frequently and said that after a par
ticularly hard fall he called Hinton.
He told Hinton, he said, that he
could not proceed and proposed that
Hinton and Kloor build a fire for
him so that he could rest and then
follow their tracks.
Then he tainted, for the next he
remembered kloor was holding him
up and saying: Nobody was going
to follow any tracks"
When Lieut.. Farrell appeared TO
testify this afternoon he walked un-
assisted, but not in the manner OF
a man physically strong. His face
was blush white and his general
appearance indicated that he had
been through severe illness.

Hartman Wakes
Pessinistic Over
Shipping Outlook

Unless Congress gives the Shin
ping Board the power to adiust
prices on government ships which
have been sold to private operators,
every one of these companies Will
be forced out of business. declared
W. A. Hartman, chairman of the
Unitel American Shipping Line. in
an address before the National Mer-
chant Marine Association, in the
Washington Hotel last night, v
Every one of the companies
which purchased ships from the
Shipping Board. which has not re-
ceived additional capital. is at pres
ent in bankruptcy" said Hartman
He declared that the future of the
American Merchant Marine was
critical.
Government owned Shipping will
not survive" Hartman declared
America is an exporting nation
ana must have merchant marine.
Although the present privately
owned merchant marine is in a pre-
caFlous state it will survive il
given chance by an adjustment of
the price on ships by the Shipping
Ioard and assurance that the Ship
"ssbOoIU VIII not operate ships in
competition with the business built
up by these private companies.
Until the shippinfi business is pur
on sound lines by the government
and fixed policy regarded the no.
sition of private owners in per-
manent routes is established" said
r a s. Franklin, president OF tbe
international Mercantile Marine
Company, nothing can be accom-
plished in the way of selling tbe
goVernment-owned vessels in any
large numbers and properly estab-
fishing American corporations in
the foreign trades of the world /"
AT present there is no market
for the government merchant
ships he said, and there will he
none until the Shipping Board
ceases competition with private
owners, and Shipping Board prices
are reduced" 80.

Prohibition must be accepted as
the permanent policy Of the coun-

pels our party to oppose Wall

IF we win recruits it must be
from the progressive element Of the
Republican party. II the Democratic
party is not willing to champion the
interests of the plain people il has
no reason for existence. So long
as the leadership of the party IN

those who are reactionary on any OF

GUATEMALAN SEES
NEW CONFIDENCE

Confidence has superseded fear
in Central America" Senior Julio
Bianchi, Guatemalan Minister. de-
clared yesterday. 1t was announced
that his government has ordered
the reduction of the standing army
to one-third of its present strength
of $4,000.
This action is significant, he
pointed out, because it is coincident
with the decision of the Central
American Union Congress, in ses-
sion in Costa Rica, to sign a con-
vention creating a federation of
Central American republics.
The era of petty wars and revo-
lutions, I believe. is at an end"
Senior Bianchi declared.
The $4,000 saved monthly by re-
ducing the army will be spent for
improving the public school system,
he added.

ENGLAND IGNORES
SHIPS, PINS FAITH
in AIR, HE SAYS
Gen. Mitchell Points Out
Aerial Deficiencies of
This Nation.

Great Britain is ready to forego
the further construction Of battle
ships. and enter an agreement for
disarmament. because she recog-
niles that further supremacy in
Wsrfsr" lies in control OF the air,
Brig Gen. William Mitchell. assist
ant chief OF the United States air
rNicc declared in an interview
yesterday.
With this idea a part OF her mill
tary policy, Britain today is direct
ing her energies along the lines OF
aircraft development, Mitchell eX-
planned
a view somewhat similar was ex-
pressed by Capt. Thomas T. Craven,
head Of naval air service, who de-
clared that Britain has decided it
the wisest policy to promote the
new scientific methods OF warfare,
whose efficacy were demonstrated
in the latter stages OF the war,
rather than to devote her energy
and money 10 building new battle
ships.
Mentions Modern War Methods.
Aircraft and aircraft carriers,
bombing devices, torpedoes and
by Craven as among the phases OF
warfare now receiving Britain's S
most earnest attention
England" Gen Mitchell said, lis
basing her policy today on the reaI-
bombs sufficiently powerful to de
stroy the largest warships afOat
Proceeding from this premise she
is working to the point where air
planes, or liGhter-than-air ma
chimes. can be operated efficiently
from the sea. She has at least four
aircraft carriers for sea Use. whiI"
the United States has none. She
can assemble an air force and move
it anywhere that occasion would
require"
There have been no adviceS from
London, Mitchell pointed out. which
mentioned any plan to restrict air
development in connection with pro-
posed disarmament.
Surface Fleets Are ObsOIescent.
1t really makes little difference
from the STANDPOINT OF war plans
according to Mitchell, whether bat
tleship construction is increased or
decreased. because the day is COM
ing when surface fleets will be at
the mercy OF fleets in the air"
England has concluded. Capt.
Craven pointed out. that for pur-
poses Of defendinE the English
Channel. aircraft has suppIanted
warships. Craven said it also was
the belief in ENGLAND that the air
plane would be the dominating fac
or in another war OF continental
europe.
Both Mitchell and Craven assertCd i
that the United States was sighting
he development OF its aerial power.
Air officials have received dis
patches from England quoting Mai.
Gen. Seely, under-secretary Of state
for air. as having said that Eng
lands claim to air supremacy can
not be gainsaid by any other pow
er"
In appealing to the scientists Of
Cambridge University for their aid
in promoting aeronautics, Gen. See
ly reminded them that Marshal FOCh
had said the next war would be in
the air, because il will be swift, Sc
cret and most deadly"

FAVOR ACCEPTANCE
OF MORGAN HOUSE

Tho Senate Foreign Relations
Committee yesterday voted to ac-
cept the gift of J. Pierpont Nor
gan's London house to the govern
ment for a residence for the Ameri-
can Ambassador to Great Britain.
The Morgan house is located in
Princes Gate, in the exclusive Hyde
Park section of London, and has
been in the Morgan family for
three generations. 1t was offered
u the government by Morgan over
year ago in the belief. as he
stated it, that the United States
should have homes for it's Ambas-
sadOrs."
In recommending acceptance of
the gift, the Foreign Relations
Committee instructed Senator Lodge
the chairman, to draft a bill for
that purpose. The bill must be
passed by Congress before the
house can be accepted.

FRANCE DERIDES
PROPOSAL OF U.S..
TO DROP LEAGUE
Plans Ridiculed as Illu-
siOns by Paris midi" in
Article on Harding.
Special Cable Dispatch to The Washington
Herald and N. Y. Evening PostD
by CHARLES A. SELDEN.

PARIS, Jan. 2o.-Under the cap
tion, illusions OF Mr.. Harding" the
Paris Midi prints an article declar-
ing that il the American President
elect has a project TO set aside the
league of nations to make room for
a scheme of bis own, such a project
will be submerged under the worlds
ridicuIe.
1T is understood" says the Midi,
that Mr.. Harding will summon rep
resentatives of the powers to Wash
ington to hear his plan of interna-
tional arbitrage. II these ENJOYS of
the civilized world go to Mr. Hard
ing with their hats in their hands
they will hear something like this:
A Satiric Forecast.
Gentlemen, an American Presi-
dent named Wilson told you two
years ago to create an'international
organization called the society of
nations. America having changed
its President it now suits us to
change this organization. replacing
it with another which / am going to
by chance another Democratic Pres
ident is elected four years hence,
the civilized world may be Obliged
to change its livery again"
Continuing, the article says:
Mr.. Hardings idea seems to be
to constitute several groups of
states by continents. with the Amer
lean nations on one side and Eu-
rOpean nations on the other, with a
court of justice dominating. By
this means the United States Is not
obliged to participate in European
affairs. but would not break all
connections.
RidicuIe New League Idea.
The device is ingenious, but will
it satisfy the world?
I'VE may be sure that South
America would prefer an alliance
with China to such a scheme. The
Monroe doctrine to them is some
thing to be taken with a grain Of
salt. To enter group purely
American, in which the United
States is all powerful, would be for
the South Americans to render
themselves helpless.
And what will Washington itself
say when Japan proposes to found
a Far Eastern group of nations in
which neither the United States nor
any European state could have, any
voice? Who then would dominate
the Far East and what would be-
come of the American policy Of the
open door in China?
"The league of nations already is
a living thing and having had so
much trouble to bring it into being
the world is not going to kill it,"

DAVIS TO REVEAL
U.S.. RELATION TO
ISLAND OF YAP
To Present Confidential
Minutes of Peace
Treaty Tuesday.

Confidential minutes of the peace
treaty will be placed before the
Foreign Relations Committee of the
Senate next Tuesday when Norman
II. Davis, Undersecretary of State,
is to appear at an executive ,Jession.
The consent of President Wilson
has been obtained, 1t was learned
authoritatively yesterday, to the
proposal that all the facts in regard
to the Island of Yap shall be placed
before the Senate committee 50 that
body may know exactly why this
pin point on the Pacific was specif-
ically excepted by this nation from
its agreement that Japan should be
EiYen a mandate over the islands
in the North Pacific. 1t will also
enable the members of the Senate
committee to understand more
clearly the reasons that prompted
this government in withdrawing The
disposition of the Island of Yap
from the negotiations of the Inter-
national Communications Confer
Gnce while leaving the matter of
the Yap cable before the confer
encc.
senate barred.
Many of the documents dealing
with the zap situation heretofore
have been sealed from even the
members of the Senate committee.
Davis heretofore was forced to
refuse to divulge the information
obtained by this government, al
though it is the belief in adminis-
tration circles that it will greatly
strengthen the hand of the govern
ment in its future negotiations.
Senator Lodge conferred We ter
day with Davis at the Capitol and
was informed that the President
had consented to the release of the
information in question.
1t is understood that the Senator's
hope in addition to obtain from
Davis much information as to the
present attitude of the United
States in the matter of mandates
and hitherto unrevealed facts on
the controversy between the United
States and Great Britain over the
MesOpOtamian oil fields.

LESSER LEGATION
men TO FOLLOW
CHIEFS If OUSTED
Fear Harding Dismissals
Will Ruin Service
Morale.

Partial disintegrstion of the dip
lomatic service may result if the
incoming administration makes
widespread changes in American
embassies and legations in foreign
countries, officials of the State Dc
partment declared yesterday.
1t was pointed out that many Of
the American ministers now serving
in foreign posts are graduates OF
the diplomatic and consular serv-
ices and have risen from the ranks.
and it was argued that their reten
tion would be long step toward
preserving the morale of the serv-
ice, and enable the incoming au-
ministration to have skilled diplo-
mats in many of the foreign capi-
tails.
Expect Ambassadors to Go.
None of the State Department Of
fcials attempted to encourage the
retention OF the present American
ambassadors abroad, holding that
the new administration would de-
sire to assign to the more impor-
tapt capitals men who are thor
oughly in sympathy with the for
eign policy that President Harding
may evolve.
II was admitted that the present
American ambassadors abroad are
purely political appointments, and
may be expected to be replaced by
appointees of the new administra-
tion. but as, far as the legation
STATS were concerned. it was said
that changes in the present list of
American ministers would result in
the removal of men who have long
been identified with the diplomatic
and consular services.
Wilson Appointed from Merit.
Officials said that President Will
son steadfastly adhered to the
policy of selecting ministers to the
smaller nations from men who had
demonstrated their fitness in lesser
ranks of the foreign service, and
that the question Of political pre-
ferment had not been considered by
him.
More than so per cent of the
American ministers now serving in
foreign capitals were Republican in
politics, some of whom had been
hOld-overs from former Republican
administrations or men who served
in the State Department bureaus
concerned with foreign affairs.
