PoIndexter Points to Niggardll
SIashing Of Navy. Bill as
Real Menace.
By WILLIS J. ABBOT.

Senator Poindexter, who has
the naval appropriation bill In
charge, said today:
while / grant that any reces.
sion from the Senate's original ap-
preparations for the navy wa
forced upon us in conference, and
although l opposed every such con-
cession as long as I thought there
was q chance of obtaining all we
asked, I am still inclined to re-
joice that we saved as much ~
we did.
HOLDS REDUCTION UNwIsE.
you must keep in mind that the
country has been taught to expect
a large measure of economy from
this Administration. 1t was un-
questionably in deferenN to a de-
mand Of this character from their
constituents that the House con-
ferees fought so hard to cut down
naval appropriations.
"Rut while I am not deaf to the
nature of the demand from the
people, nor blind to the fact that
down in response TO that demand.
still hold those reductions to be
unwise. Probably there will be no
fight on the floor of either cham
Der to restore the higher figures.
hut from my point of view there IL
no real economy in what has been
done. / cannot see any economy
in crippling the navy.
More than that, by this check
to tho development of our navy. the
country is made to face q very rell
menace. / am no alarmist, nor am
l seeking to prophesy evil. But no
one with an international viewpoint
can be unaware that conditions in
the world are not such as assure a
long and uninterrupted peace.
mo nation was ever in such a
position to arouse the covetousness
and malice of the rest of the world
as ours. We are enormously rich;
many of our rivals are desperately
poor. Among nations, as among men,
it is difficult to foretell what one
IN desperate emergency may do.
RICHES INVITE ATTACK.
1T may be said that being rich we
will be abundantly able to protect
ourselves. In the end, yes. But It
our lack of preparedness, invite
attack, and such an attack from
sources l will not mention. but the.
may be imagined, will cost many
times as much as these rejected ap-
propriations. besides costing us dear
in national pride.
THAT is the reason I say that cut
ting down expenditures for the navy
10 not true economy. You would
never describe a merchant as econom-
ical who refused to insure his stock.
You might call him stingy and
penny-wise. but he would not be the

'dence. But that is precisely what

Say Business Revival
Will Await New Crops
Much of Indebtedness viii
Have To Be Carried Until
Next Fall. View

Revival Of business in farming com
munitios and probably throughout the
country will be delayed until after the
next crop has been harvested, if the
situation in the Northwest is typical Of
rural districts generally. This is indi-
Gated in reply by a Minneapolis hard
ware merchant to q QUESTIONABLE re-
Gently sent out by the National As
sociation of Credit Men. The merchant
asserts that farmers are holding money
from the grain crop for the cash pay
ment Of purchases to be made during
the summer, leaving their loans un-
liquidated.
The QUESTIONABLE revealed q wide
spread reduction in commodity stocks
throughout the country, slow liquida-
ton of agricultural products, poor col
lections, an increase in sales among
nine Wholesale merchandising concerns
and = decrease in twelve, q smaller
numbe, of failures than was expected
largely through the cooperation among
creditors; a fairly evenly divided opin-
ion on the value of q lowering in re-
discount rates as restorative OF con
fidence and business, and only slight
dispos tion on the part Of buyers to
seek .oI ger credit terms from sellers.

4. $. Potash Importers
Accept German Rebate
Get Is p. {. Rebate on Con-

dicase for ) Years

WASHINGTON, April 6.-Agreement
with German syndicate, whereby GER
tain American potash importers will
obtain rebate in potash equal to a5
per cent of their purchases, was an
nounced to-day by the Department Of
Commerce.
The agreement, department officials
explained, means the delivery Of moro
than $2.000,000 worth of additional pot
ash to those American importers who
bought German potash during the season
ended March 81. These American i'm
porters effected the agreement with the
Kali Syndikat through the State De-
partment and VIII be entitled to the re-
bate on condition that.they take 80 per
cent of their requirements for the next
five years from the German syndicate.
Storage charges, insurance and freight
viii be borne by the syndicate, the de-
partment explained, and deliveries will
be made from stocks now on hand in the
United States. 1t Is understood, the
department added, that should the syn
dcates competitors offer potash during
the tive-year period at lower price
than that granted by the Germans, the

Business News
Say Demand for Low-Priced
Goods Fails to Materialize
Doubts Prosperity
Hinges on Exports

An opinion concerning the proper
future industrial policy of the
United States, somewhat counter to
advice being given in some high
financial and industrial quarters,
WAS given yesterday by Irving 7.
Bush, president OF the Bush Ter
minal Company.
Il do not agree completely with
those who assert that our prosperity
is dependent upon our export trade.
Might it not be we'll for us to re-
turn to our old condition of the most
self-contained nation in the world?
America, with wages higher and
more contentment among workers
than any other nation, cannot COM
pete with the world in price, in
those commodities in which much
labor is involved. In most things
the only method Of competing with
Germany and England will be
through lowering wage scales and
standard of living

Predict ws that q decreased pur-
