The Treaty Wrecker
CFrom the New York Tribune).

According to the Washington cor
respondents, ex-President Wilson is
advising Democratic Senators to do
all they can to defeat ratification of
the treaty with Germany. The force
OF habit is strong. Mr. Wilson pre-
vented ratification of the Versailles
Treaty. He had but to say the word
and a two thirds majority could have
been created for the Versailles docu-
ment, modified by the Senates res
ervations.
But Mr.. Wilson was more set on
having his way than on having a
treaty. Rather than yield in his
dispute with the Senate he slaugh-
tered his own offspring Having
on treaty was preferable to one COM
mitted himself to the theory to one
that which he couldn't dictate, he may
think he is consistent now in oppos-
ing any substitute or rivaltreaty. He
is as ruthless about slaughtering
other peoples children as he was
about slaughtering his own.
Mr.. Wilson, apparently resuming
the attitude OF party leader, holds
that no peace may be sought with
Germany which doesn't conform to
his preconceived 1919 pattern. His
Intervention seems to have brought
about several sudden conversions on
the Dem ocratic side OF the Senate.
John Sharp Williams, who was for
ratification of the German treaty, is
now against II. other Senators are
disposed to initiate this forceabout.
The Democratic minority in the SEN
ate. reduced in numbers by the last
election. is again threatened with
the disunity from which It suffered
in the last treaty fight
Where would the ex-Presidents
reasserted leadership guide It? In
1920 he submitted his case against
the Senate to "a great and solemn
referendum" AS a result the Dem
ocratic party met one Of the greatest
disasters in its history The popu-
lar vote a year ago showed beyond
dispute that the country was un-
utterably weary of wisconsin. II
rejected the theory Of a Wilson peace
or no peace. Many Democrats
soberly accepted the result of the
referendum. But because it didn't
90 their way other Democrats re-
fused to accept 1t. Mr.. Wilson, the
originator of the referendum idea,
now puts himself openly at the head
OF the "bitter-enders." The old al
lance for destructive purposes is
being revived-on the one side Mr..
Borah, who thinks that the German
treaty would entangle us too much
in European affairs, and on the
other the Wilsonites, who hold that
it doesn't sufficiently entangle us.
Mr. Wilson's blunders made it nee
essary for the United States TO
negotiate a separate peace treaty.

the face Of it her naval programme,
as explained by the New York Her

crushing a cost this is attained may
be realized from a comparison OF
the percentage her naval expendi-
lures bear to all her costs Of gov
eminent as against other govern
ments., particularly Great Britain
and the United States. Japan's mill
tary budget absorbs one-half the
Governments total expenditures.
The navy calls for 32 per cent. Of
the total expenditures. The Ameri-
can proportion for naval purposes is
only 7 per cent. The British is
even lower.
When It is remembered, as noted
before, that yen. although rated
at fifty cents among the worlds
moneys, counts in Japan for a great
deal more than a dollar does in the
United States, total navy and
army budget OF 10000, 900 yen is
a military burden more crushing than
ever was borne by Germany in times
Of peace.

EFFICIENCY IN SHIPPING.

7 TNDER the management appointed by President

deayorlng to adopt comprehensive plan Of routing ship
menis Of goods railroads that there may be
greater economy the operation OF ships OF the American
merchant marine
1t frequently happens in fact it may be said that II
usually happens, that ship leaves port with
only half a cargo less
For example ships might be leaving New York Bos-
Ton, and Baltimore the day for Liverpool but
each Of them carrying only third OF cargo that being

The effort Of the shipping Board will be to arrange rail-
road shipments to concentrate enough freight at one

Corporation a complete equipment
OF dry docks and marine railroads TO
accomplish all kinds OF ship repair
work in Baltimore"
Following labor difnculties at the
plant of the Baltimore Dry Docks
Company, reports gained circulation
several times that the plant would
be taken over by the Bethlehem Cor
poration or some organization form
ed for the purpose.
The strike at the Dry Docks plant
that brought forth all sorts of ru-
mors and reports OF changes started
in January, 1920, and ended in No
vember. 1920. In the early part OF
last year, the Dry Docks Company
bought the plant OF the Pusey &
Jones Co., at Gloucester, N. j..
known as the Pennsylvania Ship
building Company and the New Jer-
sey Shipbuilding Company. This
plant was larger than the Dry Docks
plant in Baltimore.
Holden A. Evans. for five years
president OF the Dry Docks Company
resigned last July, but announced
that he would remain as member
of the board OF directors. Evans was
succeeded by c. c. Smith. who was
one of the biggest stockholders oi
the Dry Docks stock. Smith, who wal
chairman OF the board, and Evans
disagreed on the business policy OF
the company, according to Evans
1t was reported at the time OF tho
changes that they were made e

plant, where thousands Of men were
employed at one time. 1t Is said that
now only few hundred men are
employed. At one time during the
war as many as 1900 men were
employed in the plant.
When shipbullding showed xtsns
OF falling off last year. the Dry Docks
Company planned the forming of the
Calvert Navigation Company, with
headquarters in Baltimore, to COM

were then on the ways at the Dry

Although the closest watch was kept
upon one of the drug addicts at Black

remained undiscovered. He had almost
constantly since his arrival at the in

indulgence. Warden Joseph McCann
decided to study the puzzle himself and
when the prisoner was turned out with
the others for exercise the Warden
was right behind him. The addict
stepped out of line and bending over
put his hand to the top of one of
his shoes.
Warden Mccain directed two of the
keepers to take the shoe Off. An exam

cocaine had been stuffed between the

Mrs. Augusta Emile Maley. the first
woman to defend a man accused OF

lost her case last night when, after
more than five hours of deliberation,
the jury returned verdict of second
degree murder against her client, Will
lam Gleason, for the part he played IN
the Staying of Policeman John Ritter of
Rildgefield Park. Cyrus Oberson, who
had been indicted jointly with Gleason.
was found guilty of first degree murder
The verdict was as keen disappoint-
ment to Mrs Maley as it was to the
mothers of the two boys. who were in
court 1t was the general belief that
the final plea of Mrs. Maiey had deeply
impressed the jury. as there We're but
few dry eyes in the court room when
she finished.
Mrs Maley had completely regained
her composure after the trying ordeal
of Thurdsay. When she faced the jury
soon after Supreme Court Justice
Charles w. Parker entered the court
room she asked the Sheriff to have a
table placed between herself and the
-
that she felt the table had given her
moro courage to address the jurymen
than she could have commanded when
she delivered her address at the begin
ming of the trial.
Her presentation of the vital points of
young Gleason's case brought tears to
the eyes of many present. Women openly
wept, while men were visibly touched
by her recital of testimony and pleas
for acquittal. When she had finished,
after an hour and five minutes. Patrick
Henry Maley, her husband. congratu-
lated her as did young Gleason. Prose-
cutor Archibald C. Hart came over and
patted her on the shoulder and said,
Fine, fine"
Counsel for tho defence of Cyrus Ober-
son took two hours for summing up and
the Prosecutors recital of the States
case consumed the same length of time.
Justice Parker devoted an hour to his
charge to the jury.
While waiting for the verdict Mrs,
Maley said that hereafter she would
confine her legal activities to civil
cases. as capital ones were such nervous
work. She expects to take vacation
with Mr.. Maley.
