Navy Must Equal Japan's

Rear Admiral Tells the Cincin-

Build Tree Disarmament

Rear Admiral H. P. Huse, speaking
at the Society of the Cincinnati dinner
at the Waldorf-Astoria last night, said
that no constructive naval policy could
be outlined for this country without
first taking into consideration the com
bined navies OF Japan and England.
There are only three nations which
have to be considered when naval
supremacy is discussed" he said.
"These are the navies of England,
Japan and the United States. When
you discuss the size of our navy you
must decide on the navy to meet the
alliance between Japan and England.
u think that we are moved by an
unwise delicacy in this country. We
have to have q navy large enough to
fight Eng and. We must discuss it over
here They discuss our navy over there.
When we tell them in Congress bow
large our navy must be, we must tell
them on what policy our strategy is

Wanda Urbatis, sister Of two of the
suspects in the postoffice robbery here

The woman is thought to have locked
herself in q compartment of the train.
Another theory is that she may have
