London, March 13.--Navy esti-
mates for 1922, to be an
nouunced tomorrow, will show
reduction of possibly 100000
pounds on the net estimate for the
last financial year, which was
.S4,372.400 pounds. according to
the forecast of the political corre-
spondent of the London Times. He
understands that the government
has decided in principle that the
capital ship must continue to be
the main unit of the fleet.
Expect Eight TO BE Strapped,
The correspondent says there
are now thirty-eight capital ships,
of which eight are obsolescent If
not obsolete and adds that 1t is re-
garded as uneconomical to man
such ships with expensive. highly
trained personnel. consequently
these eight are expected to be
scrapped. The government. he
says, considers that the remaining
thirty capital ships constitute for
the present an adequate basis for
the maintenance of the one power
standard.
But, as at least four will need
to be replaced" the forecast con-
tinues. "the construction Of four
vessels will eventually be neces-
sary."
The correspondent refers to the
estimates as embodying a compar-
atfvely moderate building program
and says it would hardly be posi-
bic to spend more than 100000
pounds on each new battleship
laid down.
Hopes Forecast Is Correct.
Commenting editorially, the
Times hopes that tho forecast eX-
pectation is mot illusory, for moth
ing is more certain than that this
country and the dominions cannot
bear the burden of any new COM
petition in naval armaments."

O'CALLAGHAN FEARS
REPRISAIIS IN ERIN

Cleveland, Ohio, March Ia
When shown a dispatch from Dub
lin tonight announcing that six
members of the army of the Irish
republic, taken by British forces
would be executed tomorrow, Donal
O'CaIlaghan, lord mayor of Cork,
who spoke here, declared;
"If these men are put to death
1t may drive members of the Irish
republican army to commit repri~
sails, which they are loath to do.
Their method OF warfare has al
ways been fair and when members
of the crown forces have been taken
prisoner they were released after
being disarmed Such Is not the
treatment of Irish prisoners of
war"
O'Callaghan asserted that there
is a state of war In Ireland and that
this had been admitted repeatedly
by high officials of the British gov
ernment

/ passed by the senate but was
quickly reconsidered and buried
In it's place. the republican ma
jority passed county primary act
in which the house would not
! concur. There was little true
sentiment for a primary law, as
far as could be judged from the
actions of both republicans and
democrats.
The other recommendations OF
the governor were fully carried
into law. He has signed blue
sky law, bills abolishing the
mounted police, the legal adviser
to the governor, the road super
intendents, the insurance COM
missioner and other offices which
the legislature felt belonged in
the category of useless offices.
A Special Election.
At a special election on the
third Tuesday in September, con
stitutional amendments will be
submitted to the people for the
control of tax levies, for q non
partisan land board, to prevent
Japanese from owning land, to
provide an adequate budget and
to change the meeting date Of the
Legislature and the time of inau-
guration of the governor in order
that time will be given for the
budgets preparation.
The legislation for the protec-
ton of women and children in in
dustry was enacted, Funds were
provided for surveys of the Rio
Grande valley.
The road program of the state
was given liberal support by the
, legislature A bill has been passed
for S2.O00,000 bond issue for
roads if a constitutional amend
ment permitting such an issue
carries in September. The old
levies of three mills for two years
have been changed to two mills
for three years, but the result to
the state will be the same.
Bureau of Public Welfare.
The legislature achieved good
solution of the child welfare board
of health controversy by creating
a department of public welfare
amply financed to insure creditable
results. The livestock interests
secured the relief desired in view
of the present unfavorable condi-
tions. An excise gasoline tax was
passed. but it will be one cent pei
gallon instead of two. An addition
to the capitol has been voted and
should be constructed soon. The
program desired by the banking in,
terests has been largely put
through. By a senate bill it will
