.B0RAH WILL INSIST
ON NAVAL REDUCTION
DESPITE HARDING Wish

WASHINGTON, May 10.-Proposals
looking to naval disarmament will be
pressed in the senate, notwithstand-
ing the expressed wish of President
Harding that congress take no action
on the subject at present. Senator
Borah. Republican, Idaho, announced
in statement Monday night. At the
same time, he said. there was no in
tention of interfering with the e1ecu-
tive authority.
President Harding, in urging that
; congress take no action on the sub
ject at this time, has indicated that he
would prefer to have it taken up by
Ambassador Harvey as his personal
representative before the allied SUI
preme council. when the international
, situation is such as to warrant the
calling of a conference of the powers
to consider limiting naval ornaments.
Senator Borah, however, has intro
duced a resolution requesting the pres
ident to call a conference between
Great Britain, Japan and the United
States to discuss disarmament and
will press for action when the naval
appropriation bill is considered in the
senate.
Disarmament, he said in his state
ment tonight, is primarily a question
of taxation. a subject exclusively Civ
en- to congress. THE fact that the
plan or suggestion may incidentally
touch our relationship with other ma
tions should not be taken as prohibi-
tive of CONGRESSES action" Senator
Borah continued. We have no inten-
ton whatever OF interfering with the
executive authority. We simply pro-
pose to urge the only plan by which
it is possible for congress to reduce
these fearful burdens which are now
running the people Of this country"
Senator Borah referred to the re-
cent letter of Secretary Mellon. which
said the present rate of government
expenditures was disastrous.
He has further advised US" Sen
ator Borah said, that is no way to re
duce our tax burdens except through
| cut in the army and navy appropria
| tions. This makes the proposition a
| simple one and particularly a matter
| for congress to Observation-Disclosures
ly within the Jurisdiction of congress
and of no other department of the
) government.

When Archibald M. Willard set
out to make picture of fifer and
two drumrners as a recognition of
the Centennial of American indie
pandence. he had no thought that
he was setting his foot upon the
threshold of fame.
He meant to add another to his
long list Of humorous pictures.
But he painted the most popular
patriotic picture that America has
ever known:
The Spirit of 70"

The Centennial year was ap-
preaching, and Willard undertook
what he hoped would be his NEST
popular humorous picture, a bur-
lesque on the old-fashioned Fourth
of July celebration.
He had his characters near at
hand. His fifer was Hugh Mosher,
a soldier of the civil war; the boy
drummer was Harry Devereaux, of
Cleveland. For the central figure,
Willard got his father to pose.
The old preacher was himself
nothing less than heroic. He was
tall and grim and of Revolutionary
blood, and he impaired to the pic
ture something which from the first
made it difficult to treat it in the
spirit of comic
One day, after many attempts to
satisfy himself with the humorous
picture, Willard threw it aside and
started anew. He transferred his
three musicians from the bayfield,
and rustic celebration to the battle
field. Then every suggestion of the
comic vanished

The state of Pennsylvania has i'm
posed tax upon all anthracite coal
mined in Pennsylvania and this tax
will ultimately be added to the price
of coal raid by the consumer. The
people of the State of Maine are de-
pendent upon anthracite coal and it
is ono of the necessities of life in a
Maine climate. 49,
Governor Baxter has taken this
matter up with Attorney General
Shaw to see if any legal action can
be taken to have this tax removed
and Maine will cooperate with the
other New England states in an ef-
fort in that direction.
Maine imports about 100000 net
tons of anthracite coal each year
and the proposed tax means a con-
siderable burden upon the consumer.

Bronze Tablet to Tell Story
Of Names Capitol Buildings

when was this building built?" is
one of the most frequent questions
asked by visitors to Names Capitol
and the most frequent answer is:
"Well, I can't say offhand in just
what year."
The same is true Of questions asked
concerning the original Capitol build
ing and various additions up to the
erection of the present structure.
Few are the people in or out Of the
State House, who can answer off
hand.
That was the reason that the Ex-
ecutive Council at its last meeting
voted unanimously and without de-
bate the following order, presented by
Governor Baxter, who stated that,
observing just such occasions as
mentioned above, he had prepared it.:
Ordered, that the Governor be
authorized to procure and erect in
the State House a suitable bronze
tablet giving the history Of the vari-
Gus State Capitols. together with
such other information as he may
consider appropriate"
The Governor said he would have
prepared and submit to the Council
sketch or sketches of the proposed
tablet and when design had been
selected. the remainder of the details
would be discussed in Council. He
also suggested that the rotunda would
seem the most desirable place for the
tablet.
